"My son! If you bend
sinners do not agree".
Proverbs 1.10
9. Changing of the Sabbath
Something strange is happening today in the
Christian world. At the time, as the truth about the Saturday clear as day,
most Christians celebrate Sunday. What is the reason?
The first possible cause is the change in the
calendar. The history after Christ knows
only one case such changes: in1582, Pope
Gregory XII ordered to miss in October - month 10 days, so for 4 October
followed 15th. In 1918 this improved - the Gregorian calendar introduced in
Russia by Lenin's proposal the same way. This changed the order of dates.
There were repeated attempts to change the order of the days of the week, enter ten days
in the week (as in France), etc., but the expense of days of the week was not
lost. Saturday was still the seventh day of the week (biblical and civil, Unlike in
Russia, where the week starts on Monday).
Is the second and only reason such changes:
someone wilfully and intentionally suffered a day from Saturday to Sunday.
Take a look at the ancient Roman
"eternal" stone calendar. Every day of the week of the Romans was
dedicated to a god - are farthest apart. Their names are still preserved in the the names of
some of the days of the week.
Satan, by idolatry at Appeninas apparently
had far-reaching plans concerning the Roman idols. It so happened that the day
following the Sabbath, the day on that Christ is risen, coinciding with the pagan day of
the sun is the second Rome. The Sun was the most revered among the luminaries like
the authentic Baal - God Sun. "Fans of Baal had claimed that the gifts of
heaven - the dew and rain - sent by nature, and that the land brought fruits only thanks to
the creative energy of the Sun ( E.White, “Prophets and Kings", ch. 9).
Roman beliefs were similar. This take was the enemy of humanity, creating its
last Grand deception.
9.1. The Bible and the first day of the week
Neither the old nor the New Testament you
cannot find even a hint of a change or cancellation Saturday. And what said about Sunday?
8 times in the Bible (the New Testament) is
the phrase "first day of week” ("Rev
1.10” it is a Saturday, rather than on an is a translation error to Russian).
Consider each
of these texts :
1) Matthew 28.1 - here
States that in this day of Mary Magdalene and the other Maria went to see the tomb of Christ.
2) Mark 16.1
- they did it on "after the
Sabbath" as holy by the day and Saturday do not engage in such cases.
3) Mark 16.9
- Jesus was resurrected on this
day, next Saturday, and it's quite normal (God had power and resurrect it, but for the sake of
Sabbath never did) and was Mary Magdalene, which before this had found His tomb
empty.
4) Luke 24.1
- previous texts say that the disciples
of Christ on Friday "was prepare incense and suit, and on Saturday, were
left alone on the commandments" ; in the first the day they went to the Tomb.
5) John 20.1
- when they went to the Tomb,
they saw that the stone rolled away from him. However, these texts merely confirm the
sanctity of the Sabbath.
6) John 20.19 - Assembly of disciples who
locked the door House "out of fear of the Jews", in no case was the
celebration of Sunday, as they do not know that Christ is risen: "go to My brethren
and say to them. The disciples were glad having seen the Lord (John 20, 20.17).
7) Acts 20.7 - meeting in Troas was the
celebration of Sunday, as Paul stayed in Troas 7 days, including Saturday, and
"the first day of the week... to midnight , under the current account, the
end of the day Saturday, as light in the Bible part of the day (morning) follows the dark
(night - Gen 1.5). In addition, in the morning, Paul was going to "walk" in the Ass (19
miles), hence it is not celebrated this day, but instead spent 84 described in "Acts"
of Saturday's meeting (2 in Antiohia,1 in Philippi, 3 in Thessalonica, and in Corinth
- 78).
8) 1 Corinthians 16.2 - command
Paul about collecting donations at the beginning of the week, but not in the Church,
and at home. This custom dates back to Old Testament Times: "Honor the
Lord from the choicest of all thy profits” (Proverbs 3.9 ).
So, the New Testament considers Sunday a
normal day like any other (except Saturday).
9.2. The "mystery of iniquity" in
action; Satan's feud against the Sabbath
before Constantine
The nefarious scheme, which changed the law
of God, did not at once. "For the mystery of lawlessness is already at
work, just not fulfilled until it is taken from the environment holding
now" (2 Thess 2.7). The devil could not exterminate the name Christ openly
and decided to destroy the truth, having put on a mask of Christ.
"Restraint is now replaced by"
Roman Paganism - comes the "mystery of iniquity" - BAPTIZED
PAGANISM.
Even during the times of the Apostles in the
Church began to penetrate the heresy. Paul wrote: "I am amazed that you
who called you by the grace of Christ as soon go to a the Gospel, however, is different, but there
are people, embarrassing you and wishing to MAKE the Gospel of Christ" (Gal 1.6-7).
Although the Bible was the only basis of faith at that time, many Christians
wrongly interpreted it (so it is said that the teachings of the
"other") and injected into their practice of pagan-installation (
Ezek 8.14-15 - the cult of the “mother of God” , Jer 7.17-18 - Easter cakes , Ezek.8.16 - the
custom of praying to the East, etc. ). It was introduced and the celebration of Sunday - day
of sun.
Day shift worship took place gradually. We
have no historical evidence by stating that prior to the second century,
Christians worshiped weekly on Sundays. However, in the middle of the second
century, some Christians were themselves adhere to the Sunday as the day of
worship (not as a day of rest). The Roman Church, consisting in the generally
composed of Gentiles (Romans 11.13), first took a course on celebration Sunday.
This the
desire to "secede from the Jews" was caused anti-Jews sentiments in
Rome: the Roman Church has reached that completely abandoned the observance of
the Sabbath. As show
Socrates, Sozomen, and other historians of the time, all the churches of
“world” (Roman Empire) to IV-V century followed Saturday night (or Saturday and
Sunday), except for Church in Rome, which neglected the day of the Lord.
Persecution of Christians continued until the
year 313. With King Constantine Fought someone in Rome begins a new stage of the desecration of
God's law.
9.3. The unholy Act of beast
Constantine realized: if he destroys all the
followers of Christ, will be citizens. Then he adopted Christianity and made it
the State religion. But it is there was already a "Christianity"; so, pagan
myth of the afterlife and the hellish agony turned to the doctrine of the
immortality of the soul. According to the Bible, the dead between death and resurrection
are unconscious about what spoke to Christ (Eccl 9.5-6; Ps 146.4; John
11.17, 11-14); After the resurrection of the wicked will completely destroy - are killed (
Mal 4.1, Obad 16). The parable of the rich and Lazarus (Luke 16.19-31) cannot
describe afterlife,
otherwise would be contrary to the Bible itself, and says only the necessary for
repentance with life (a form of the parables of Christ was linked with the
wrong representation
of many Jews on death). "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of
God - eternal
life in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Rom 6.23).
In addition, the pagan gods turned into
Christian Saints, pagan day - weight - in the Christian Easter, etc. the same
happened with the pagan day of the Sun.
9.3.1. The edict of Constantine
The Sun was a central deity in ancient Rome and has had his cult
"Solinvictus".
Therefore, to accelerate the conversion of
the Gentiles, Constantine declared the day of Christ resurrection - the day of
the Sun (see fig. 7) public holidays and non - working days:
"Ordered all municipal authorities and
residents of the cities rest in Venerabili die Solic (the Honourable the day of the Sun),
and artisans - to close their shops. But living in rural areas and engaged in agriculture may
freely continue
to work, as it often happens, that this is the best day for sowing and planting
grapes; a good time can be lost and the blessings of heaven lost-but" (law,
passed March 7, 321 - Codex Justinianus, lib. 3, tit. 12.3).
Then there were two days of worship - Saturday
and Sunday. But this case is not limited.
9.3.2. Laodicea Act; "the proud and the
profane words"
In 364, the Cathedral of Laodicea in his 20th
Canon announced: "Christians should not be Judaizing and respect Saturday,
but should work; and the day of the Lord (Sunday) they should especially read
and, whenever possible, to refrain from this day. If they will continue Judaizing, let him be
anathema (alienated from Christ) " - (Charles
j. Hefele, A History of the Councils of the Church, vol. 2, p. 316).
The word Judaize priests understood also
ordered food (Lev 11). The Gentiles not only ate pigs in food, but also brought
them to sacrifice to their gods. However, the ban on impure food has not been
canceled, since the preservation of health (unclean animals were "nature's nurses, so
their meat is toxic as drugs, alcohol and tobacco). "So whether you eat or
drink, or whatever you do, everything do for the glory of God" (1 Cor
10.31). Is it conceivable in prayer before the meal to ask for Slovenia to
impure food?!
With 538, in Europe a new power described
in Dan 7.24-26 and
Rev 13.1-10 . This power had made idols in the Temple of God and changed
the law - the fourth commandment now read "day holiday celebrate", the second commandment
was removed from the Decalogue, and the tenth is divided into two, to keep their total
number. Laity was forbidden Chi a Bible on it have the right only to priests
and monks, with lay people Katekhizis instead of the Bible. Up to 100 million
people were victims of the Inquisition. The next sold indulgences - salvation
of the soul for money and destroyed the idea of salvation by faith independent
of the cases. While faith without works is dead, things are only natural result
of faith and salvation is only by faith, "so that no one can boast"
(Eph 2.8-10).
The Bishop of Rome - the Pope was declared a
God on Earth, who has the power to open and close the Kingdom of heaven, to
create something from nothing and that is anathema to the angels,
not-consonants with him in matters of faith. "The Pope commands the
heavenly and earthly things. THE POPE IS INFALLIBLE AS GOD AND CAN DO EVERYTHING THAT
GOD DOES... Blaming
the dad is still that the sin against the Holy Spirit, not forgiven either in
this age or in the next. The Triple Crown of the Pope means the triunity of his
power: the
angels in heaven, the humans in earth the demons in hell. God gave the power the Pope all
the laws, and the POPE HIMSELF ABOVE all laws. If the Pope said the verdict against
God's Court, then the Court of God must be fixed and changed. POPE - THE LIGHT
OF FAITH AND REFLECTION OF TRUTH. POPE HAS IT ALL OVER EVERYTHING AND CAN DO
EVERYTHING" (Resolution of the 1st Vatican Council 1, 1870; "The free
word of Carpathian RUS, no. 209-210, 1976).
So was the prophecy: "In the Church of
God he sits as God, posing as God", "and against God will pronounce
the words and oppress the saints of God; and same will dream cancel their
holiday times and the law, and they brought to be in hand It's up to time and times and the half-time"
(2 Thess 2.4, Dan 7.25).
According to Dan 4.13, 20.22 time - this is
the prophetic year (360 years), times - 2 such “years” (720 years), half-time -
a half of “year” (180 years). Subtotal -1260 years (the same period recorded in "Revelation
12.14" and named "the forty-two months" (13.5) and "1260
days" (Rev 12.6) This is the same prophetic period).
If in 538, Pope acquired the dominion over
the whole of Western Europe, so that could even deliver and to depose a kings and
emperors, in 1798, he lost it. It Is in 1798, 1260 years, French General Berthier entered Rome
and took the Pope prisoner.
"He who leads into captivity he will go
into captivity" (Rev 12: 13.10). But the first the beast is not over. Its "deadly wound
healed" (v.3).
9.4. Seal of beast
Every branch has its own character - a day of
worship.
Saturday is the seventh day of the week-is a
sign of loyalty to the Lord God and the day of a crush on Him ( Exodus 31.17,
Is 66.22-23 ).
When Jeroboam established the worship of
calves in Bethel and Dan, he established the celebrating day, dedicated to
them-the fifteenth day of the eighth month (1 Kings 12.32).
When, in 1917, the Bolsheviks came to power
and declared Lenin Idol, who "lived" and "alive" and the
"will to live", they have certain days of worship him - May 1 and
November 7. I saw it with my own eyes and even participated in it. In these
days of outdoor of cities stopped traffic and crowds of people were sent to the
Central streets and squares - General. Welcoming the Government and party
officials, they shouted "Hurrah!". The Centre of this event was held
in Moscow at the Lenin mausoleum, the entrance to which was protected by two armed
soldiers. Something similar is described in the New Testament: "All Cried with one
voice, and about two hours shouting: great is Artemis Ephesus!" (Acts 19.34).
To date, Sunday is the day of worship to God
and the Church, and knowledge of its credibility. The Catholic Church
recognizes this:
“Question: How do you prove that the Church
has the right to establish holidays and whether - days?
Answer: if it did not have such power, she
could not have done what all the people agree: it could not replace the celebration of the
seventh day of the week, Saturday, the first day of the week, Sunday, that
there is no command in the Scriptures" (Stephen Keenan, A Doctrinal
Catechism (3rd ed.), p. 174). “SUNDAY - SIGN OF OUR AUTHORITY” (Catholic record, September 1923).
A beast, that wants to put all its seal (Rev
13.16) is, without a doubt the Holy See. One
of the titles of the Pope-VICARIVS FILII DEI (Vicar of the son of Of God).
Calculate the numerical value of the Roman calculation:
V = 5 F = 0 D = 500
I = 1 I = 1 E = 0
C = 100 L
= 50 I = 1
A = 0 I = 1 ---------
R = 0 I = 1 501
I =1 -------
V = 5 53 112
S = 0 + 53 = 666
----------- +
501
112
You can now guess how looks the proverbial "printing
of the beast". Compliance to Sunday instead of Saturday - means to have her for
myself instead of print.
9.5. Warning to three angels
"And I saw another Angel flying in
midheaven, which had the eternal Gospel reach to those who dwell on the Earth,
and to every tribe and tribe, language and nation" (Revelation 14.6).
In the guise of the Angel John the Baptist
Church, was shown last time (Revelation 12.17), which with amazing rapidity preaches the “Gospel
of the Kingdom throughout the universe, in evidence of all peoples" before"
the end will come" (Matthew 24.14). This is a special message for the
modern world. What does it contain?
9.5.1. Worship the creator!
"Afraid God and give him glory, because
the hour of His judgment has come and prostrate Created the heavens and the
Earth, and the sea and the springs of water" (Rev 14.7). "For in six
days the Lord made heaven and Earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and
rested the seventh day. So blessed the Lord of the Sabbath day and hallowed it” (Ex 20.11). The first Angel, moreover, that the Court began over the
peoples. About It
said the end of the period "2300 evenings and mornings" with 457 BC.
(Decree of Artaxerxes rebuilding of Jerusalem), to 1844 (Dan 7.9-10, 8.13-14,
9.24-27). October 22, 1844 Christ of the first branch of the heavenly sanctuary
moved to the second for its purification (Heb 8.1-9.1, 5-28).
To cleanse the heavenly sanctuary, following
the example of the need to check on the memory books, whether this man is
reconciled with God and humbled their souls before? (Mal 3.16). After that, each be sentenced to
eternal life or death (Rom 6.23). The book of life - list of heavenly citizens -
writing now, and always, having desire, can enter into it.
In addition, in 1844, was an extended version
of the books of Charles Darwin "Genesis of types", which challenges
the biblical story of creation (Genesis 1). First angel invites atheists to acknowledge that
the world was created by God, and to pay tribute to him.
9.5.2. Babylon has fallen!
"And another Angel followed,
saying," fallen, fallen Babylon, the great city, because he gave all his
fornication wine people" " (Rev 14.8).
"Babylon" - this is confusing,
mixing. So was the place where the a massive rebellion against God - "the construction
of the tower to the heavens". Then God mixed languages people (Gen
11.1-9). The place was built the city of Babylon, which became EC - timber of
various Pagan beliefs (Jer 51.6-8). Already in the 1st century Apostle Peter called Babylon
city Rome (1 Pet 5.1); the Babylon at that time was destroyed forever (Is
13.19-22). It was
in Rome was crossing of Christianity with paganism and include up - "Baptized
Paganism": those who have adopted Christianity, the essence of its stayed
by pagans. Because God rejected this church and considers her His other lies-
major religions and systems. However, he said
that these churches have a faithful, sincere souls, and said to them: "Come out of
her (the harlot of Babylon), my people..." (Rev 18.4).
9.5.3. "The patience of the saints"
"And the third Angel followed them,
saying with a loud voice: who worships the beast and his image and takes the mark on his forehead
or on his hand, he will drink the wine of God's fury. Here is the patience of
the Saints, fulfilling the commandments of God and faith in Jesus" (Rev 14.9,
10.12).
Every person living before the end of the
world, which is close (Matthew 24, Luke 21), will receive the seal of God or the beast.
The third is not given. "Right hand" and "forehead" is the
image of actions and thoughts (see Deuteronomy 6.4-9). The first group of
people will display God's nature and respect its Saturday.
The second group will be composed of the
selfish, arrogant, greedy, cruel and intolerant of dissent, which, if at all to celebrate any
day, then, of course, not Saturday, and "day of the Sun".
"All were forced to make a choice
between the law of God and the laws of human. All the people the boundary
will divide all in two groups. Every person having reached full development, will show
its essence and be on the side of those who are faithful to the law, or by
standing opposed it. And then the end comes" (E. White, “The Desire of
Ages", ch.79).
The only one who thanks to his faith and the
power of God will stand all tests, saving the commandments of God and faith in Jesus, can stand in
the glorious Christ on the clouds (Rev 14.12, 1.7, 6.15-17).
What is the "image of the beast"?
This will be discussed below.
9.6. The image of the beast
In chapter 13 of Revelation (11-14), except
the first beast (papacy), and the second, which comes after the fall of the
first beast on the other end of the globe has good intentions, but later turns into a dragon. It is
the United States
that will cause abuse of God's law.
9.6.1. "Earth helped the wife”
"And let the snake out of the jaws of
their wives followed by water as the River in order to Captivate her River. BUT THE EARTH
HELPED THE WOMAN, and the Earth chasms standing mouth and swallowed the river
which released the dragon from his mouth" (Rev 12.15-16).
15th century. Satan and his agents are
rampant in Europe, "the resources that
reduced numerous grandmasters truth on Earth" (Dan 8.12). But God has
provided for his people the miraculous deliverance: land where restore civil
and spiritual freedom - New World.
In the year 1451 in Genoa was born the
amazing man - Christopher Columbus. He owned by four foreign languages, knew how to make maps
and drive the ships, was brave and God-fearing. While still young, he had a desire
to go to the West to commit new geographical discoveries may be new, but no one
believed him.
On arriving in Spain, Christopher described his
idea of a monk from a monastery near Palos, and then some very Queen Isabella.
The Queen became interested in the project of Columbus and designated the "Scientific
Council" to discuss it.
Columbus, after a long struggle and prayers to convince scientists and priests to
support the project.
With three ships and August 3, 1492, 90
person team, making a stop in the Canary Islands, moved to the West. 33 days,
the sailors saw land, and it frightened them: they had Columbus was told about their worst
prejudices and required to turn back. But God did not disappoint his faithful servant. Shortly a
sailor watching forward, sitting in a large barrel, observers cried: "Land!"
12 October at the new continent for the first time entered Christian's foot.
At the beginning of the open Caribbean
Islands, and later, after the death of Columbus, continent. Initially, the Europeans did not dare to
move inland, but already In 1513, Balboa crossed some of it and went to the
eastern edge of the Pacific Ocean. So
was opened a new land.
9.6.2. The appearance of the second beast;
Sunday and Protestants
In the following centuries the events at
different parts of the continent have evolved differently.
Central and South America was ruled by
Catholic - Spaniards and Portuguese, which mercilessly exterminated local
inhabitants (Indians) and violently turned into Catholicism. Not so the circumstances
were in North America. In the early 17th century colonists first arrived there.
Most of them were protestants, and on social situation - peasants, farmers and
artisans.
The colonists were unhappy with the
dependence on England and frequently staged revolt against the authorities and
British aristocrats. In 1769, George Washington and Thomas Jefferson, organized
by Virginia union to boycott British goods. In 1775, this mass movement has
morphed into a war.
The English authorities failed to "put
the colonists into place”. July 4, 1776, representatives from the 13 colonies (Congress)
proclaimed the "Declaration of independence" of the creation of a new
state - the United States of America (U.S.A).
Look at the prophecy of the second beast (Rev
13.11-18):
a) he arose and intensified at the end of the
18th century (1776), when the first beast was injured (1798);
b) he was not "from the sea", as the
first beast, and "from the earth" (the sea means that people and
their war,
and the land-purchase, without population or distant from civilization;
c) he appeared in the New World, because
Europe is the first beast;
d) he has no crowns (diademas), therefore, it
is not a monarchy but a Republic;
e) 2 horns like lambs are two of the
principle of freedom - political and religious.
No Kingdom except the United States, does not
meet all these criterias.
John writes that it is not always this beast
will be gentle and peace-loving. And he could yet his grin. This attitude of
American Protestants to Sunday.
9.6.3. Freedom of conscience under threat.
United States Constitution reads: "Congress
shall make no laws related to the mouth-match religion, or prohibiting the free
exercise thereof" (Amendment I, part 1) . Nevertheless, this article increasingly
disturbed.
"At present, the United States attempted to enlist under IPEC State
authority in matters of religious institutions and ceremonies, witnesses
emphasized that Protestants are on the trail of the Catholics. The spirit of
Catholicism, the spirit agreement with the mundane rituals of respect and
veneration of the human frontal one hundred myths of the commandments of God,
entered the Protestant churches, and they praise and worship Sunday
afternoon, as this made the papacy before them.
If a reader wants to know what forces will be
involved in the coming fight, then let the study means that Rome used to achieve its goals in the past
century. And if you, dear reader, you want to know how Catholic and Protestants
will treat those who reject their dogma, then explore the attitude of Rome to the Sabbath commandment
and its defenders" (E. Whyte,"The Great Controversy ", p.
537-538).
It is strange that most Protestants (as
Orthodox Christians) complying with Sunday. After all, this is a Catholic invention, and they,
in opposition to Rome, would have to observe the Sabbath.
But let us return to Rome in the 4th century. How gradually
Saturday was changed to Sunday, mentioned above. Both were celebrated at first, and then
the celebration of the Sabbath was forbidden. The heresy of Rome spread throughout the Empire, like a
contagious disease. So there was a beast.
The second beast, it is the same way. In 1892,
Chicago hosted the world's fair EXPO. Catholic clergy demanded close it on
Sundays, and Congress granted this request contrary to constitution of the
United States, and the law of God. Since then, nearly every State has "Sunday
law" (so far with the exception of the Sabbath).
And in 30-years of XX century the 40th United
States Congress attempted to adopt a national Sunday law. 500 most admired
people of the "free country" of America discussed bill:
For a first violation - $50. fine,
For a second violation - $500 fine and 6
months in prison.
(Magazine "Voice of truth" of that
time)
Fortunately, this Bill was not passed. But
soon it will again,
and the reason (excuse) to economic problems not only in America but also in
the the
whole world. Bernard Casseli, editor of the Catholic Bulletin of the Diocese of
Saint-Paul-Minneapolis writes: "We, as a people, are now in energy crisis.
It serves as the basis for the Government to intervene and put the end trade on
Sundays. It's time to review and practice the laws requiring cessation of trade
on Sundays". And all newspapers were executive statements like this: "Christians must
halt all kinds of activity on Sunday”. Today, the Pope wants to make all people
(not only
in America)
by Sunday, and to this end it in the future, will join with the State. This is
the full realization of the image of the beast.
9.6.4. The book of Esther and the last time
After the Decree of Cyrus (537 BC) not all Jews
came back. Some of them remained living in Persia, one of the Jews - Mordecai -
became the guardian of the Royal gate, and Jewish Esther became Queen - wife of king Xerxes (in
Bible - Ahasuerus). Xerxes has the first Minister - Aman, that all the people
had to worship. Mordecai
also refused to do so. Angry, Aman wants to destroy all Jews in the Kingdom,
and he asked the King to sign a corresponding Decree. When the Queen Esther has learned about
this, she risked their lives, went to the King and informed him that Aman wants
to destroy
her people. Xerxes, learning that Aman wants to exterminate fellow Esther,
spared her people and dealt with Aman.
Today we see the same situation. Question
about the day of worship became basically. The Church, defending, said: "Worship
the beast!" and will adorate him are many, but not all.
When the imprinting will be consummated, the
angels will keep winds and release them. Pitch darkness, the spirit of anger and delusion will
cover the whole earth. Those who comply with God’s Sabbath, will be outlawed.
Initially, they will be allowed to buy and sell (Rev 13.16-17), then they will
want to put to death (v.15). Jesus said: "If it were not reduced the days, no
flesh would be saved; but for the purpose favorites decline the
days chosen" (Matt
24.22). God will
protect for His people and will save him (Dan 12.1).
The wicked will not lead to death but are themselves killed a nice phenomenon
of Christ and the resurrected only at the end of the Millennium for punishment (2 Thess 2.8-12, Rev 20.5-9).
"The people of God to hear clear,
melodious voice: "Look up!" And... you can hear wonderful voice, full of love and triumph:”The
Go! Go! Holy, innocent and without spots recognized herein are! They respect My
Word patience, so let them live among the Angels!" " (E. White,"The
Great Controversy", p. 600).
No. 282
All the edges of the Earth sounds good news:
Ascribe to the Lord glory and praise, honour!
Because only he is our God, our Lord, father,
He is the creator of Earth and heaven.
In the great day of judgment that can stand
only
Who is God's commandment and faith will save.
In glory in the clouds our Savior comes
Us into the Kingdom of eternal enters.
