Commentary: The Day of the Sun

by Guy C LaMar

On March 7th, 321, Roman Emperor Constantine the Great issued a civil decree – making Sunday a day of rest from labor. Stating, “All judges and city people and the craftsmen shall rest upon the venerable day of the Sun.”

It was Emperor Constantine the Great in 321 AD who proclaimed the Day of the Sun as the day of worship for the Roman Empire.

In the fourth-century AD, the Catholic Council of Laodicea affirmed Sunday worship and declared that all Sabbath-keeping Christians are heretics.

And, sadly, even to this day, true Christian Sabbath-keepers are considered heretics and are persecuted in many nations, countries, and provinces around the world! They OBEY the LORD God rather than the ideologies of men who were and are influenced by Satan the devil!

The Catholics adopted Sunday as the day of rest because they didn’t want to be like the Jews. Even though it was the LORD God – not mankind – that instituted the SABBATH! The Sabbath is from Friday sunset until Saturday sunset.

Exodus 20:8-11

“’ Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. 9) Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 10) But the SEVENTH DAY is the Sabbath of the LORD your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. 11) For IN SIX DAYS the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the SEVENTH DAY. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.’”

It was Satan the devil who influenced mankind to embrace SUNDAY over the Sabbath.

1st John 4:1

“Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world.”

The keeping of the holy Sabbath is a TEST COMMANDMENT – a sign between God and His chosen begotten children.

It is a command from the LORD God to “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.”

Again, it was from the LORD God! Not mankind!

Truly, all churches of the world that claim to be “Christian” and keep Sunday as the rest day are daughter churches of the Roman Catholic Church!

The Roman Catholic Church is a church of Satan the devil!

Research their history! Research how they always have and continue to do things AGAINST the LORD God’s commands!

Isaiah 58:13-14

“’ If you turn away your foot from the Sabbath, From doing your pleasure on My holy day, And call the Sabbath a delight, The holy day of the LORD honorable, And shall honor Him, not doing your own ways, Nor finding your own pleasure, Nor speaking your own words [such as implementing Sunday as a rest day], 14) Then you shall delight yourself in the LORD; And I will cause you to ride on the high hills of the earth, And feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father.

The mouth of the LORD has spoken.’”

ALL Sunday-keeping churches are the daughter churches of this “MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH”! The Roman Catholic Church!

Too strong of words!?

Too harsh!?

SOLID FACTS!

Ephesians 6:12

“For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places [such as the atmosphere].”

The LORD God will not tolerate false religions! It certainly breaks the FIRST COMMANDMENT –

“’ You shall have no other gods before Me.’”

ANYONE that keeps Sunday as a “holy” rest day HAD BETTER STOP! It is acting against the LORD God and serving Satan the devil!

John 8:44

“’ You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.’”

The Sabbath is a HOLY TIME!

And, our Lord Jesus Christ is our example for all Christians to follow!

Our Lord Jesus kept the Sabbath – as did all those who followed Him in the first century AD, and those who follow Him in this twenty-first century!

IT IS NOT A JEWISH THING! IT’S A GOD THING!

Mark 2:27-28

“And He said to them, ‘The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath. 28) Therefore the Son of Man is also Lord of the Sabbath.’”

OBEY THE LORD GOD, or be against the LORD God!

Obey and keep the holy Sabbath or continue to follow Satan the devil!

Harsh as this may sound, the fact is ANYONE who has been shown the living truth of God cannot say that they have not been warned.

ANYONE who is continuing to keep SUNday as the Sabbath day is rejecting the LORD God and is in fact following Satan the devil! Thus, their god is Satan! With all of his wicked lies of deception.

2nd Corinthians 11:12-15

“But what I do, I will also continue to do, that I may cut off the opportunity from those who desire an opportunity to be regarded just as we are in the things of which they boast.

13) For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ. 14) And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light. 15) Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness, WHOSE END WILL BE ACCORDING TO THEIR WORKS.”

The holy Sabbath is in force!

The holy Sabbath is IMPORTANT to the LORD God!

When our Lord Jesus spoke concerning this soon-coming end-time trauma, which will also befall Judah (the tiny nation today called Israel), He made it clear that those in Judea should pray that their flight to the mountains does not take place in winter or on the Sabbath.

Why!?

Because they will still be keeping the Sabbath! It is a HOLY TIME! And, it will still be a HOLY TIME at the end of this age!

The LORD God NEVER changes!

“’ For I AM the LORD, I do not change; …” – Malachi 3:6.

“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.” – Hebrews 13:8.

Exodus 31:12-16

“And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, 13) ‘Speak also to the children of Israel, saying: ‘Surely My Sabbaths you shall keep, for it is a sign between Me and you throughout your generations, that you may know that I AM the LORD who sanctifies you.

14) You shall keep the Sabbath, therefore, for it is holy to you. Everyone who profanes it shall surely be put to death; for whoever does any work on it, that person shall be cut off from among his people.

15) Work shall be done for six days, but the SEVENTH is the Sabbath of rest, holy to the LORD. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death [not only physical death but even more a spiritual death and even eternal death].

16) Therefore the children of Israel shall keep the Sabbath, to observe the Sabbath throughout their generations AS A PERPETUAL COVENANT.’”

per·pet·u·al - never ending or changing. □
