All the evil we encounter and hear about in the world has an invisible origin. Even many of our own thoughts are not our own. This is how many are deceived and go astray. The Son’s of God are led by the Spirit of God. So, it is with the wicked, they are led by Satan. This is how he has infiltrated the church with false doctrines.
Ephesians 6:12 (ESV) 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.
In the verses below we see that Satan controls the world. The world belongs to Satan and he rules it for a time. He could not have offered Jesus the Kingdoms of this world if they were not his.
2 Corinthians 4:3-4 (ESV) 3 And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing. 4 In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.
Matthew 4:8-9 (ESV) 8 Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. 9 And he said to him, “All these I will give you, if you will fall down and worship me.”
Satan uses the unbelievers to do his work which is to destroy everything God created.
Here in John 8, Jesus is speaking to the Pharisees. How many people have you tried to speak to about Christ and they dismiss your words? For me it has been many even to those that say they believe also dismiss words of truth. Seems like they fit this category.
John 8:43-47 (ESV) 43 Why do you not understand what I say? It is because you cannot bear to hear my word. 44 You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies. 45 But because I tell the truth, you do not believe me. 46 Which one of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me? 47 Whoever is of God hears the words of God. The reason why you do not hear them is that you are not of God.”
For thousands of years Satan has been hard at work. He was so successful that God destroyed all that was living except for Noah, his family and the creatures that he sent to the ark, because they were consumed by evil.
Genesis 6:5 (ESV) 5 The LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intention of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
Ephesians 2:1-3 (ESV) 1 And you were dead in the trespasses and sins 2 in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience— 3 among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind.
Thank God for providing us with a way of escaping the clutches of Satan. However, the majority have rejected this wonderful gift and continue to serve Satan.
We see this partnership in the world all around us. Satan leads the carnally minded to destruction. These things below are just a few of the ways he does it. All who agree or do these things are worshiping Satan whether they know it or not.
- Food poisoned by insecticide
- Foods genetically modified
- Waters polluted
- Forests destroyed
- Children taught sorcery through Disney shows, toys, cartoons etc.
- Satan places evil thoughts in peoples minds and many act on them.
- Satan has Infiltrated the church with false doctrines and people believe them.
- Sunday worship of the sun god is well established in the world.
- Police arrest criminals and the courts set them free.
- Acceptance of same sex couples.
- Sex changes acceptable.
- Child molesters allowed to be among us.
- Abortion funded by Government.
- Celebration of evil called Halloween.
- Celebration of the birth of the sun god called Christmas.
- Celebration of the god of fertility called Easter.
I could go on and on the list is incredibly long.
Now let’s look at the Mark of The Beast. The 4th commandment is the only one that is for a sign between God and His people and it is forever. We are to have God’s law written on our hearts, to meditate on them always and teach them to our children. They are to be a sign on our hand and forehead. This sets those that are His apart as obedient to His commandments.
Exodus 31:12-13 (ESV) 12 And the LORD said to Moses, 13 “You are to speak to the people of Israel and say, ‘Above all you shall keep my Sabbaths, for this is a sign between me and you throughout your generations, that you may know that I, the LORD, sanctify you.
Deuteronomy 11:18-19 (ESV) 18 “You shall therefore lay up these words of mine in your heart and in your soul, and you shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. 19 You shall teach them to your children, talking of them when you are sitting in your house, and when you are walking by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise.
So, by replacing the 7th day of the week with the 1st day of the week Sunday which is the worship of the sun god and is actually the worship of Satan and is the mark of the beast, which sets those that follow his ways apart. If they do not repent of that the end for them will be destruction.
Revelation 13:15-17 (ESV) 15 And it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast might even speak and might cause those who would not worship the image of the beast to be slain. 16 Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, 17 so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name.

So, Constantine developed a plan to unite both groups on the common platform of Sunday keeping. On March 7, 321 A.D., he passed his famous national Sunday law: First Sunday Law enacted by Emperor Constantine – March, 321 A.D. “On the venerable Day of the Sun let the magistrates and people residing in cities rest, and let all workshops be closed.
Constantine being led by Satan instituted Sunday worship. Right from the beginning Satan has been leading man into sin. Unfortunately, the majority of the world now follows Satan. The evidence of the origin of pagan worship in society can easily be found in history books and on the internet. Yet people blindly follow and accept all the feast days of Satan which some have been disguised as having a Christian origin. However soon there will be no disguise when the worship of the beast is forced on the world.

Below are some quotes that clearly indicate the man-made change From Sabbath to Sunday.
The following is quoted from Bill Goff’s article Feasts of Charity

The Council of Laodicea was a regional synod (an Ecclesiastical council) of approximately thirty clerics from Asia Minor that assembled about 363–364 AD in Laodicea. The major concerns of the Council involved regulating the conduct of church members. The Council expressed its decrees in the form of written rules or canons. Among the sixty canons decreed, several aimed at: Maintaining order among Bishops, Clerics and Laypeople. Outlawing the keeping of the Jewish Sabbath (Saturday) and encouraging rest on “Lord’s Day” Sunday. And also forbade the churches for celebrating the Agape or love feast.
Let’s read them (word for word as they are)
Now most of us are familiar with Cannon # 29, we’ll read that first: CANON XXIX.
CHRISTIANS must not Judaize by resting on the Sabbath, but must work on that day, rather honouring the Lord’s Day; and, if they can, resting then as Christians. But if any shall be found to be judaizers, let them be anathema (an ath a ma) from Christ. (Meaning: excommunicated, banned & cursed.) Most of us are familiar with that #29 Cannon with that ruling.

It is well to remind the Presbyterians, Baptists, Methodists, and all other Christians, that the Bible does not support them anywhere in their observance of Sunday. Sunday is an institution of the Roman Catholic Church, and those who observe the day observe a commandment of the Catholic Church.
—Priest Brady, in an address, reported in the Elizabeth, NJ ‘News’ on March 18, 1903.
Protestants … accept Sunday rather than Saturday as the day for public worship after the Catholic Church made the change… But the Protestant mind does not seem to realize that … in observing Sunday, they are accepting the authority of the spokesman for the Church, the pope.
—Our Sunday Visitor, February 5th, 1950.

Now in this end time with advanced technology along with deception Satan is about to take control of the world by using a global one world government. Which will bring us into the great tribulation. That will last 3.5 years, after that time Satan will be dealt with.
Matthew 24:21-22 (ESV) 21 For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, and never will be. 22 And if those days had not been cut short, no human being would be saved. But for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short.
Revelation 11:15 (ESV) 15 Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, saying, “The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he shall reign forever and ever.”
Revelation 19:20 (ESV) 20 And the beast was captured, and with it the false prophet who in its presence had done the signs by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped its image. These two were thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur.
