THE BEASTS MARK OF AUTHORITY
  • Q. 4) Since we have now positively identified
    the beast as the papacy, let us permit the papacy
    to tell us what its mark is? See exhibit.
  • Q. Which is the Sabbath day?
  • A. Saturday is the Sabbath day.
  • Q. Why do we observe Sunday instead of Saturday?
  • A. We observe Sunday instead of Saturday because
    the Catholic Church transferred the solemnity
    from Saturday to Sunday. Peter Geiermann
    Converts Catechism.

10
THE BEASTS MARK OF AUTHORITY
  • Q. Have you any other way of proving that the
    church has power to institute festivals of
    precept?
  • A. Had she not such power, she could not have
    done that in which all modern religionists agree
    with her, she could not have substituted the
    observance of Sunday, the first day of the week,
    for the observance of Saturday, the seventh day a
    change for which there is no Scriptural
    authority.
  • A Doctrinal Catechism by Stephen Keenan

11
ATTEMPTED CHANGE OF GODS LAW
  • Q. 5) It seems incredible that the papacy has
    been able to change the day of worship from
    Saturday to Sunday and have virtually the entire
    world follow. Did the papacy really change Gods
    fourth commandment Sabbath to Sunday or only
    think that they had changed it.
  • Daniel 725
  • And THINK to change times and LAWS.

12
ATTEMPTED CHANGE OF GODS LAW
  • Q. 6) What was Gods criticism of His ancient
    priests or pastors?
  • Malachi 27-9
  • You have caused many to STUMBLE at the lawyou
    have not kept my ways, but have shown PARTIALITY
    in my law.

13
ATTEMPTED CHANGE OF GODS LAW

    the great things of Gods law?
  • Hosea 812
  • They were counted as a STRANGE thing.

14
ATTEMPTED CHANGE OF GODS LAW
  • Q. 8) God said that the religious leaders in
    Ezekiels day were profaning holy things putting
    no difference between profane and holy things and
    showing no difference between the clean and the
    unclean. What specifically did He have in mind?
  • Ezekiel 2216
  • They have HID their EYES from my SABBATHS.

15
ATTEMPTED CHANGE OF GODS LAW
  • Q. 9) What did God say about attempts to change
    His law or word in any way?
  • A. Deuteronomy 42 - Do not ADD or DIMINISH a
    single thing.
  • B. Proverbs 305,6 If I add to His word He
    counts me a LIAR.
  • C. Luke 1617 HEAVEN and EARTH will sooner pass
    away than for one tittle of the LAW to fail.

16
POPULAR CHURCHES ARE EMBARRASSED
  • Q. 10) When we ask the papacy, How could you
    change Gods holy law? they are embarrassed.
    But their response is even more embarrassing to
    protestants.
  • See exhibit

17
  • THE PAPACY ASKS A QUESTION
  • Here is the famous question which the Papacy has
    repeatedly asked Protestants. And Protestants
    have remained strangely silent
  • "You will tell me that Saturday was the Jewish
    Sabbath, but that the Christian Sabbath has been
    changed to Sunday. Changed! But by whom? Who has
    authority to change an express commandment of
    Almighty God? When God has spoken and said, 'Thou
    shalt keep holy the seventh day" who shall dare
    to say, nay, thou mayest work and do all manner
    of worldly business on the seventh day, but thou
    shalt keep holy the first day in its stead? This
    is a most important question which I know not how
    you can answer. You are a Protestant, and you
    profess to go by the Bible and the Bible only
    and yet, in so important a matter as the
    observance of one day in seven as a holy day, you
    go against the plain letter of the Bible, and put
    another day in the place of that which He has
    commanded. The command to keep holy the seventh
    day is one of the ten commandments you believe
    the other nine are still binding who gave you
    authority to tamper with the fourth? If you are
    consistent with your own principle, if you really
    follow the Bible and the Bible only, you ought to
    be able to produce some portion of the New
    Testament in which this fourth commandment is
    expressly altered",
  • Library of Christian Doctrine Burns and Oates,
    pp. 3-4, London.
