Earth Day is a world-wide environmental movement celebrated by 1 billion people. Religionists, agnostics, atheists, spiritualists, and people from every walk of life are partnering together to save the earth. More than 75,000 organizations, including the Vatican, in 195 countries are working to create a just, sustainable “environmental democracy.” [1] Created 50 years ago, Earth Day is celebrated every April 22 as the birth of the modern environmental movement, and its stated objective is to transform the world and “require action at all levels, from business and investment to city and national government.” [1]
Our generation has bequeathed many riches, but we have failed to protect the planet and we are not safeguarding peace. We are called to become artisans and caretakers of our common home, the Earth which is “falling into ruin.” #EarthDay
— Pope Francis (@Pontifex) April 22, 2024
Here was the Pope’s Earth Day message:
• “Our generation has bequeathed many riches, but we have failed to protect the planet and we are not safeguarding peace. We are called to become artisans and caretakers of our common home, the Earth which is falling into ruin. #EarthDay”. [2]
Rome is on a mission to persuade the world to adopt its Laudato Si’ climate agenda. Their goal is to bring all religions together into a single family with a single mission. Of course, the center of this green, religious New World Order will be Rome. On April 22, 2024, Catholic News Agency outlined five ways to celebrate Earth Day that included reading Laudato Si’ and taking the St. Francis climate pledge.
Catholic News Agency reported the following:
• “In honor of Earth Day and in response to the Holy Father’s message urging the faithful to take action in protecting the environment, here are five ways Catholics can celebrate Earth Day.” [3]
• “1. Spend time with God in nature – Consider going on a hike or simply take a walk outside and spend time in prayer thanking God for his beautiful creation.” [3]
• “2. Create a Mary Garden – A Mary Garden is one filled with plants, flowers, and trees that honor Our Lady and Jesus. Examples include baby’s breath to represent Mary’s veil, lilies to represent Mary’s queenship, poinsettia to represent the Christmas story, and chrysanthemum for Epiphany. You might also consider placing a statue of Mary in your garden.” [3]
• “3. Read Laudato Si’ – Laudato Si’, Pope Francis’ second encyclical after becoming pope, translates to “praise be to you.” This is in reference to St. Francis of Assisi’s “Canticle of the Creatures,” where the saint praises God for the goodness of natural forces such as the sun, wind, and water. The encyclical not only focuses on care for the environment and all people but also looks at broader questions about the relationship between God, humans, and the earth.” [3]
• “4. Take the St. Francis Pledge – The St. Francis Pledge, initiated by the Catholic Climate Covenant, asks Catholics to commit to honor God’s creation and advocate on behalf of people in poverty who face the impacts of climate change around the world. The pledge includes praying and reflecting on the duty to care for God’s creation, analyzing how each of us contributes to climate change, and advocating for Catholic principles in discussions on the topic.” [3]
• “5. Learn more about the lives of the saints who had a connection to nature – There are several saints who are known for their love of God’s creation including St. Francis of Assisi, St. Kateri Tekakwitha, Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati, and St. John Paul II.” [3]
The first beast of Revelation 13 is seeking to gain power and control over everything and everyone. A national Sunday law will be the result of Rome’s climate movement during the Mark of the Beast crisis. All the churches are coming together. All the nations are uniting. We know from prophecy what is going to happen, as these events are setting the stage for the final crisis.
No crisis catches God by surprise. He knew what was coming, and He has raised up the Remnant people to preach the everlasting gospel of Revelation 14 to the world. This is a message to counter idolatry and the sacredness of Sunday that is being accepted by the world. Instead of embracing the pantheistic teachings of Laudato Si’, we must reject them. The earth and everything in creation must point us to the Creator and His gospel so that we can give God glory (Revelation 14:7) by keeping His commandments, not the theories of man.

And they worshiped the dragon which gave power unto the beast, and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like unto the beast? Who is able to make war with him?” Rev. 13:4.
Samuel says
Only the faithful Remnant people will resist this global climate/Sunday apostasy.
