“It is the spirit of the papacy—the spirit of conformity to worldly customs, the veneration for human traditions above the commandments of God—that is permeating the Protestant churches and leading them on to do the same work of Sunday exaltation which the papacy has done before them” (Great Controversy, p. 573).
Thanks to the climate crisis, Sunday laws are practically writing themselves. Here we see a Sunday rest city ordinance with teeth. Prophecy calls this speaking like a dragon. We are told in the book The Great Controversy that Sunday exaltation is the “spirit of the papacy.” Today this spirit is working in darkness to accomplish exactly what Rome wants: Sunday rest by law.
On February 25, 2024, a mandatory car-free Sunday with penalties was enforced on everyone in Mexico City. In an article published by Medio Tiempo News titled “Even on Sunday! What cars are resting TODAY, February 25, due to environmental contingency in Mexico City,” the city’s air pollution problem is being addressed by ordering nearly all of the cars to take a break on Sunday. This city ordinance, which came with a hefty fine to enforce compliance, would save energy, lower consumption, and limit pollution.
The article stated, in part:
• “Even on Sunday! What cars are resting TODAY, February 25, due to environmental contingency in Mexico City?” [1]
• “Mexico City and the metropolitan area has led to not only issuing recommendations to avoid health risks, but also carrying out measures such as reinforcing the “No Travel Today” program, and reduce the emission of pollutants.” [1]
• “Not even Sunday was saved, after two days in a row in which holograms 0 and 00 had to rest in an extraordinary way due to the poor air quality reported by the unit formed by the Environmental Commission of the Megalopolis, where several of the entities of central Mexico.” [1]
• “We tell you which cars, although they have a 0 and 00 hologram, cannot circulate this Sunday, in addition to the rest that must be added to the measures taken with the aim of reducing pollutants in the city.” [1]
• “At what times does “No Travel Today” apply? Generally, the “No Travel Today” program has an extension of hours between 5:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m., covering most of the day; However, this Sunday it was announced that it would operate from 5:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., so after that time, all vehicles can return to operating normally.” [1]
• “What is the fine for not resting during “No Travel Today?” The sanctions for not respecting the “No Travel Today” program are mainly monetary, which are calculated in payments ranging from 20 to 30 UMAs, that is, between $2,171.4 and $3,257.1 (Mexican pesos). [1]
• “What cars are NOT driving this Sunday, February 25? These are the vehicles that CANNOT circulate this Sunday, February 25, between 5:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.” [1]
• “Private use vehicles with verification hologram 2.” [1]
• “Private use vehicles with verification hologram 1, whose last numerical digit is 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8.” [1]
• “Private use vehicles with verification hologram 00 and 0, blue sticker, plate termination 9 and 0.” [1]
• “Local or federal freight vehicles stop circulating between 6:00 and 10:00 a.m.” [1]
•“Taxis with verification hologram “00”, “0”, “1” or “2” that must stop circulating in accordance with the provisions indicated in sections 1, 2, and 3, will be subject to the restriction on circulation from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.” [1]
A $3,257 fine in Mexican pesos comes to around $190 US dollars, which is a lot of money for people who don’t make much. Residents of Mexico City were being warned not to drive on Sunday due to environmental regulations! And the harsh penalties served to guarantee that the law was followed. The car-free Sunday program included fines as a means of upholding public safety, protecting the environment, maintaining order, safeguarding the common good, and enforcing Sunday rest.
History shows that whenever Sunday is exalted, what follows is that the seventh-day Sabbath, Saturday, the true Lord’s Day, is suppressed. The rest that comes from keeping God’s true Sabbath is a spiritual rest. The coming Sunday law will be a civil rest that will come from human government. Instituting Sunday rest by law, even for environmental reasons, is to assume the power and authority that belong solely to God. Whenever politicians enact Sunday rest measures, they are stepping into the realm of God, which they have no right or authority to do. These are matters that belong to the Creator.
“Protestantism shall give the hand of fellowship to the Roman power. Then there will be a law against the Sabbath of God’s creation, and then it is that God will do His ‘strange work’ in the earth” (Bible Commentary, Vol. 7, p. 910).

The Bible Swagman says
The Pope has succeeded in getting an Environmental Rest Sunday false Sabbath in Mexico. How long before their is Legislation for an Environmental Sunday False and Counterfeit Sabbath in America Itself and Canada? I believe this is an indicator of what is coming very soon to America and the World.
In my research and reckoning it is highly possible that Sunday Law could be Signed by President Biden on the Day of the Solar Eclipse or Sometime mid to Early April.
Should that happen their will be a period of either 30-45 days before Sunday law is invoked Worldwide in the name of an Environmental Crisis. For that to happen Nations have to Surrender their Sovereignty to the Papal Beast. In May all Nations will meet in Geneva Switzerland to Sign the Pandemic Treaty. This Treaty effectively Revokes all National Sovereignty and gives the Papacy through its WHO Lackeys the power to declare a Worldwide Environmental Crisis, the only Solution for Which is a Sunday Rest Sabbath for the Salvation of the “Planet”.
The WHO Pandemic Treaty Gives power to the Beast and the Ten Kings and Horn Controllers who will Rule one hour with the Whore of Babylon. [ 1260 days ]

The Lord will judge according to their works those who are seeking to establish a law of the nations that will cause men to
violate the law of God. In proportion to their guilt will be their punishment.—Letter 90, 1908.

We are standing on the threshold of great and solemn events. Prophecies are fulfilling. The last great conflict will be short, but
terrible. Old controversies will be revived. New controversies will arise. We have a great work to do. Our ministerial work must not
cease. The last warnings must be given to the world. There is a special power in the presentation of the truth at the present time.
How long will it last? Only a little while….
The inquiry of everyone should be, “What am I? To whom do I owe allegiance? Is my heart renewed? Is my soul reformed? Are my
sins forgiven? Will they be blotted out when the time of refreshing shall come?” …
The last books of the Old Testament show us workers taken from the laborers in the field. Others were men of high ability and extensive learning,
but the Lord gave them visions and messages. These men of the Old Testament spoke of things transpiring in their day, and Daniel,
Isaiah, and Ezekiel not only spoke of things that concerned them as present truth, but their sights reached down to the future, and to
what should occur in these last days.—Letter 132, 1898.

Satan’s policy in this final conflict with God’s people is the same that he employed in the opening of the great controversy in
heaven. He professed to be seeking to promote the stability of the divine government, while secretly bending every effort to secure
its overthrow. And the very work which he was thus endeavoring to accomplish, he charged upon the loyal angels.
G.C 613 1911 Edition
The Sabbath is the great test question. It is the line of demarcation between the loyal and true and the disloyal and transgressor. This Sabbath God
has enjoined, and those who claim to be commandment keepers, who believe that they are now under the proclamation of the third
angel’s message, will see the important part the Sabbath of the fourth commandment holds in that message. It is the seal of the living God.
They will not lessen the claims of the Sabbath to suit their business of convenience.—Manuscript 34, 1897.

I believe firmly that Sunday Law is Closer than we Expect. The Signing of the Sunday Law marks the Start of the 1260,1290 & 1335 Days of Daniel Twelve.
It is my Opinion that the Loud Cry Begins in Earnest not Long after that and will Manifest Shortly among Gods True Saints who are Pure a have have not been Corrupted by Satan’s Churches.

Though this is temporary, it will soon become permanent.

No prophecy in this World that will not be witnessed . Our responsibility is to stick to Jesus our Savior and ask for Holy Spirit.
