What could be worse than promoting Sunday as a day of rest and worship? In reality, there is something worse, and that is when Sunday rest and the LGBT+ agenda are promoted at the same time. Because Sunday worship and the LGBT+ lifestyle are both incompatible with God’s word and lack biblical support, these two concepts are similar in that they are products of human invention.
On March 10, 2024, Rob McDowell, who specializes in facilitating Laudato Si’ and Creation Spirituality retreats at the Ignatius House Jesuit Retreat Center in Atlanta, published an article explaining the precise meaning of Pink Sunday. McDowell is also a member of Atlanta’s Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, a pro-LGBT+ church known as “the gay Catholic Church.”
Rob McDowell wrote:
• “In the Catholic Church, the Fourth Sunday in Lent is called ‘Laetare’ Sunday, from the Latin word for ‘Rejoice.’ Some people like to call it Pink Sunday, since on it, clergy commonly wear pink vestments, instead of the traditional Lenten purple.” [1]
• “The Shrine (of the Immaculate Conception) continued to grow and became known as ‘the gay Catholic Church’—even though it is mostly straight! It has long hosted a booth at the Atlanta Pride Festival … We march in the Pride Parade wearing our Shrine Pride t-shirts.” [1]
• “When LGBTQ champion Fr. James Martin, S.J. came to Atlanta, he spoke at the Shrine and was greeted by protestors outside. If Pope Francis wants our parishes to be field hospitals, the Shrine is what he had in mind.” [1]
• “So, I wish you a joyful Pink Sunday, hoping that you have, or will find, a church home that allows you to rejoice in your beautiful LGBTQ+ self. Then you can rejoice as we do at the Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, where we gather and pray in the house we built where prophets speak words that are strong and true … and thank you for making almost every Sunday a Pink Sunday.” [1]
“Joyful Pink Sunday” is a term used by the pro-LGBT+ Jesuits in the Catholic Church who want every Sunday to be a Pink Sunday. Basically, they are endorsing Sunday rest and the homosexual agenda, which they assert is supported by James Martin and Pope Francis, two Jesuits. The following passage in God’s word serves as a reminder of this power’s prophetic nature:
“And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws.” Daniel 7:25.
Man has not only attempted to change the Sabbath, but he is also interested in modifying the biblical teaching on sexual morality. All of this is part of the great “falling away” (Greek: apostasy) predicted in 2 Thessalonians 2:3 that would take place just before the second coming of Jesus. Many would be “falling away” from key Biblical truths. This apostasy exists due to the rejection of God’s will for humanity. According to Genesis 5:2 and Matthew 19:4-6, God intended for human sexuality to consist of one man and one woman united in holy matrimony and for everyone to observe the seventh-day Sabbath (Matthew 24:20; Hebrews 4:4, 9).
The spiritual death of any church arises from its rejection of God’s truth. There are some leaders who believe that they know more than God. Professing to know God, they reject the authority of His word. This is part of an end-time, theological, and moral drift taking place throughout Christianity. The new morality versus God’s morality will be a test as to whether people remain faithful to the word of God or whether they will join the kingdom of Antichrist and its godless, moral-less agenda.

Have often pondered on how the LGBTQ suddenly became so well organised in every university globally…and figured at the head of their organisation was most likely a Jesuit agent of some sort.
My assumption on why they are pushing the LGBTQ in every area of people’s lives is make new laws to do with discrimination, which would help to criminalise the 3 Angels message,
So one saying anything against the Papacy would be seen as Hate speech instead of a warning of Love, to spare them from God’s wrath in Revelation 14:10.
Satan is constantly changing religious agendas to accommodate all peoples religious preferences.
The Sunday churches are constantly evolving to do this so as to appease everyone’s desires.
The Jesuits are continually viewed with suspicion, some well deserved. Historically the Dominicans were the great opponents of the gospel before the Jesuits even existed. Tetzel, Luther’s early and continual opponent was a Dominican. He’s the one who sang the little song about the coin in the coffer. He also said his indulgences were so powerful that even a man who deflowered the Virgin Mary, could find forgiveness with them. Early on, the Reformation started as a quarrel between Tetzel and Luther. it then became a quarrel between the Dominicans and Luther’s order, the Augustinians. Luther was not opposed to all indulgences. He believed that indulgences could secure forgiveness for transgression of RC custom and tradition. Existential sin, however, could only be forgiven by Christ.
The Council of Trent had many more Dominicans and Franciscans than Jesuits. According to Oxford historian Alister Mcgrath, there were only 2 Jesuits at Trent. The Jesuits were founded in 1545. Luther died in 1546; therefore they had little to do with the Reformation in its early stages.
I’ve had casual conversations with 3 different Jesuits. I asked one about his recent whereabouts, “Oh, we’ve been starting revolutions in South America, he replied. This was the early 90s
Homosexuality was introduced into northern monasteries by Italian monks, not Jesuits, according to historians.
Much of the conversation around gay inclusion among SDA consists of discussing the meaning of the word in 1 Corinthians 6:9 and 1 Timothy 1:10 translated as “abusers of themselves with mankind,” “them that defile themselves with mankind.” Those expressions are a translation of the Greek word ἀρσενοκοίτης. It is Strong’s number 733. It is a combination of 2 words that are found in the Greek version of Leviticus 18:22 and 20:13. Both verses condemn a man who lays with another man as with a woman. Leviticus doesn’t say “homosexual” or “abuser of oneself with mankind.” It describes the act of one man laying with another man as with a woman. That’s homosexuality. Leviticus uses the same two words Paul uses in I Corinthians 6:9 and 1 Timothy 1:10. He combines two words into the word ἀρσενοκοίτης. Paul knew the Greek Old Testament and would have been familiar with these words. They mean the same thing as Romans 1 where it describes “men with men working that which is unseemly.”
Romans says that “men with men working that which is unseemly” is “unclean.” Whatever the finer points of lexicography, the word “unclean” is used to describe the men referred to in Romans. Uncleanness is condemned in Ephesians 5:5. American laws require civil rights for homosexuals. In church, they should be “delivered unto Satan.” In Leviticus, men who lie with other men as with women are included in the list of forbidden sexual liaisons such as those who lie with animals, their mother or daughter in law, or another man’s wife. When a person of this sort turned up in the Corinthian church, Paul didn’t plead for inclusion/diversity/equity. He said such a person should be delivered unto Satan.
