236Official Statements of the Clergy.“<strong>The</strong> special characteristic of the beast [the Roman Church], and therefore ofhis image, is the breaking of God‘s commandments.“<strong>The</strong> Great Controversy, p. 447“<strong>The</strong> enforcement of Sundaykeeping on the part of Protestant churchesis an enforcement of the worship of the papacy--of the beast.Those who, understanding the claims of the fourth commandment, choose toobserve the false instead of the true <strong>Sabbat</strong>h are thereby paying homage tothat power by which alone it is commanded. But in the very act of enforcinga religious duty by secular power, the churches would themselves form animage to the beast; hence the enforcement of Sundaykeeping inthe United States would be an enforcement of the worship ofthe beast and his image.“But Christians of past generations observed the Sunday, supposing thatin so doing they were keeping the Bible <strong>Sabbat</strong>h; and there are now trueChristians in every church, not excepting the Roman Catholic communion,who honestly believe that Sunday is the <strong>Sabbat</strong>h of divine appointment.God accepts their sincerity of purpose and their integrity before Him.

But whosoevershall deny Me before men, him will I also deny before My Father which isin heaven.“ [Matthew 10:32, 33] ... <strong>The</strong> divine Intercessor presents the pleathat all who have overcome through faith in His blood be forgiven theirtransgressions, that they be restored to their Eden home, and crownedas joint heirs with Himself to ‚the first dominion.‘“ [Micah 4:8]<strong>The</strong> Great Controversy, pp. 484, 485HARP / Chemtrails“Satan works through the elements also to garner his harvest of unpreparedsouls.
