Dear Pastor

This Blogsite is designed for Pastors teaching that the Sabbath has been set aside (annulled) and Sunday observance is now what God prefers and even demands. If the Reader is not a Pastor, this is still very important, and we encourage you to examine the evidence we present. We ask all of our Readers to take a moment to pray for God's Holy Spirit to be your only guide. Thank you SO much for spending time with us!
  As a Pastor, could you be unwittingly promoting an Antichrist Doctrine? Could a good Pastor be preparing to wear Antichrist's name and teaching his people to wear it also and yet be unaware of doing so? According to Bible Prophecy, all but a small minority of sincere, honest Pastors will do exactly this just before Jesus comes to take His people to Heaven!

Did Jesus Outline the Mark of the Beast?
The term, "Teacher of Anomia"  is something we will use in this Blogsite. In His Sermon on the Mount, Jesus said, "Whosoever, therefore, shall break one of these least Commandments, and TEACH MEN SO, he shall be called least in the Kingdom of Heaven; but whosoever shall DO and TEACH them shall be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven" (Matt. 5:19). Underscore "TEACH" because it is the theme of this Blogsite.

 
Let's Ask Ourselves the Following Questions:

Do I teach that we are living in the, "Grace Dispensation" during which time we have permission to disregard God's Ten Commandments?

Do I teach that God Insists we disregard His Sabbath Commandment?  


Do I teach that the Sabbath is the, "Least Commandment?" 

 

Do I include the following in my sermons: "Whosoever, therefore, shall break one of these least Commandments, and teach men so, he shall be called least in the Kingdom of Heaven; but whosoever shall do and teach them shall be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven" (Vs.19).

Do I teach that Jesus abolished the Sabbath at His death?

Do I teach that we should honor Sunday because Jesus arose from the tomb that day?

Do I teach my Congregation to remember Sunday each week as the Lord's Day, and to FORGET the only Commandment beginning with the word, "Remember?" "Remember the Sabbath day to keep it Holy" (Ex.20:8).

Do I teach this because I believe  
Paul told us to?

Do I teach that to be saved, we must, "Know the Lord?" 


Do I teach how to, "Know if we Know the Lord?" "And by this we do know that we know Him, if we keep His Commandments. He that saith, I know Him, and keepeth not His Commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him" (1Jn.2:3-4)? 


Do I teach that Sabbath Observance is, "Legalism?"  Do I teach that Sabbath Observance is a form of "Trying to WORK your way into Heaven?" 

"Working Our Way to Heaven"
Pastor, if you are a Minister that says Sunday is the "Lord's Day," no doubt at some time you've preached that Sabbath observers are trying to work their way into Heaven by keeping the Sabbath. Let's ask a question. What is the command in the Sabbath Commandment? "Thou shalt not do any work." Now Pastor, let's ponder this for a second. How is it that obeying a Commandment that forbids us to work, is a form of trying to "work" our way into Heaven? Just food for thought.

Christ's "Sabbath" Dispute with the Jews about the Sabbath                        While Jesus was here on earth, the Jewish leaders had concocted nonsensical, non-Biblical burdensome to the Sabbath. This was mockery and Jesus rebuked such tomfoolery. Corrupt Jewish officials made the Sabbath a repulsive burden. Jesus humiliated them for their foolishness, but NEVER did He tamper with the Sabbath as it was outlined in the Ten Commandments. We must NEVER forget that it was Jesus Himself that wrote the 10 Commandments on the Tables of Stone.

Mark of the Beast
A careful Bible Study into the Mark of the Beast reveals that, "Annulling God's Law" will be Antichrist's Last Day Delusion. Daniel wrote: "He shall think to change the times and the Laws" (Dan 7:25). Concerning the days just before the Lord's Second Coming, Isaiah wrote: "The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the Laws, changed the Ordinance, and broken the Everlasting Covenant. Therefore hath the CURSE devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate! Therefore, the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men are left" (Isa.24:5-6). So, if "changing" God's Time Law will be the Mark of the Beast in the Last Days, is there any possibility that Jesus changed it? If Jesus is going to "Curse the inhabitants of earth" for "Transgressing His Laws and CHANGING His Ordinance," is there any possibility He approves of us doing exactly this?

More Questions Pastors Must Ask Themselves
Sabbath Questions about God's Law are important, but, there are several other question that should concern Pastors. Following are some of these Questions and Blogsites that look into them.

Do I teach that it is impossible to obey God's Law,  but then quote, "I can do ALL things through Christ who strengthens me" (Phil. 4:13)? See New Covenant - Power over Satan, Why Jesus Has Not Come Yet

Do I teach that we can NEVER overcome sin, then quote the following words from Jesus: "To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with Me on My throne, even as I overcame and am set down with My Father on His throne" (Rev 3:21)? See Why Does Jesus Wait, New Covenant - Power to Defeat Satan,

Do I tell my people their departed loved ones are watching them from Heaven and can send their "spirits" back to earth to comfort them? See Truth about Death  The Rich Man and Lazarus 
Do I teach that our un-saved loved ones that die are writhing in the fires of un-ending Hell where God will torture then forever? See Tortured Forever and Ever . The most compelling question that destroys the notion that God will Torture humans forever is "Did Jesus Take Our Punishment in Hell?"

Do I teach my people not to worry about Antichrist because they'll be Raptured away before he can do his work?

If the Reader is a Pastor, if you have other questions as to where certain Dubious Doctrines got into our Christian Church, we have a Blogsite revealing how the Gnostics all but destroyed the Early Church. The Gnostics were Satan's agents that he implanted in the Early Church. You'll be shocked at how many so called Orthodox Doctrines are Gnostic Doctrines! See "The Gnostics"

 Thank you SO much, Dear Reader, for taking time to read our Blogsite. We hope we've waved the warning flag gently. If not, please forgive. May God send His Spirit to guide us as we prepare to meet Jesus at His Soon Coming!
Thanks again
Your Brother in Christ
