The Catholic Archdiocese of Vancouver distributes a weekly publication called The B.C. Catholic. As stated on its website, the goal of this publication is to share the “good news of the gospel to the Catholic community” in “British Columbia and beyond.” [1] In an article published on February 15, 2024, B.C. Catholic asserts boldly and repeatedly that Sunday—the third commandment—is the original day for God and family. They also falsely claim that Sunday is the Sabbath and the time when we are supposed to worship God on our “journey towards our heavenly home.”
There is an old saying that states that even a lie can be believed as fact by a sizable portion of the population if and when there is a massive campaign of propaganda, repetition, and persistence. Unfortunately, this proverb has become true in today’s world. The B.C. Catholic expressed the following in the article:
• “It’s nice to have a holiday, but we used to have ‘Family Day’ every week. It was called ‘Sunday’.” [2]
• “It’s true. When I was younger, there was a very different vibe on Sundays. Sure, it was different because our family went to church, but even for those with no religious affiliation, Sunday was distinguishable from the rest of the week because it was a day, as Mom said, for rest and for family. Stores were closed. Banks were closed, as they are now, but there were no ATMs, and even television stations had limited broadcasts.” [2]
• “Indeed, the Catechism of the Catholic Church states, ‘Just as God ‘rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had done, human life has a rhythm of work and rest. The institution of the Lord’s Day helps everyone enjoy adequate rest and leisure to cultivate their familial, cultural, social and religious lives’ (CCC 2184).” [2]
• “Each week, we are given Sunday – the Sabbath – to recall and focus upon the reality of this identity.” [2]
• “How even more wonderful that the third commandment and our Church remind us of the importance of the Sabbath each week! Sunday – the day of recalling that we are members of God’s family – is the perfect opportunity to veer away from the ruts and habits of work to focus on our relationships with the heavenly Father.” [2]
• “The Sabbath is a weekly opportunity to worship, to slow down, to examine our consciences, to say some extra prayers, and to share a meal with family, or with friends who are like family.” [2]
• “Sunday – the Sabbath – is a chance to spend time with God and with the members of our earthly family who accompany us, as we journey towards our heavenly home.” [2]
• “Happy Family Day!” [2]
While the Catholic Church claims that Sunday is the Lord’s day, God tells us in Exodus 20:8–11 that we are to remember the Sabbath day, which is Saturday. The question is: who are we worshipping? The Creator or the beast? Romans 6:16 clearly tells us that we are the servants of whoever we obey. So if I worship on Sunday, then who am I serving? Rome. Or if I worship on Saturday, who am I serving? God. All who keep Sunday as the Sabbath are worshippers of the beast. Revelation 13:8 tells us that everyone who lives on earth will worship the beast, whose name is not recorded in the book of life. Do you see then how the beast is worshipped?
Roman Catholics and most Protestants all teach that Sunday is the Sabbath or the Lord’s Day. As a result, people are keeping Sunday instead of the true Sabbath. In other words, the so-called Christian world is actually worshiping the beast rather than God and preparing for the mark, not heaven. This is a crisis of faith and the reason for the warning of the Third Angel, which says:
“If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb.” Revelation 14:9, 10.
The second point that we notice in this article from the Roman Catholic Diocese of Vancouver is a perfect fulfillment of the prophecy of Daniel 7:25, which says, “He shall think to change times and laws.” This is speaking of God’s laws, not human ones. If this were human law, he could most certainly change it. But since this is a reference to God’s divine law, the beast of revelation can only “think” to change it, attempt to do it, or even make it appear that he has done it. Why? Because the moral law is eternally unchangeable and God’s original copy of His law is in heaven (see Revelation 11:19), no Pope, priest, or pastor has ever entered heaven and altered what God has there.
“For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain. And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the LORD.” Isaiah 66:22–23.

It Seems Satan as the Antichrist is bringing all parties together for agreement on Sunday Worship.
With Protestant teachers there is the same claim of divine authority for Sunday-keeping, and the
same lack of scriptural evidence, as with the papal leaders who fabricated miracles to supply the place of a command from God.
The assertion that God’s judgments are visited upon men for their violation of the Sunday-sabbath, will be repeated; already it is
beginning to be urged. And a movement to enforce Sunday observance is fast gaining ground.
Marvelous in her shrewdness and cunning is the Roman Church. She can read what is to be. She bides her time, see-
ing that the Protestant churches are paying her homage in their acceptance of the false sabbath, and that they are preparing to
enforce it by the very means which she herself employed in bygone days. Those who reject the light of truth will yet seek
the aid of this self-styled infallible power to exalt an institution that originated with her. How readily she will come to the help
of Protestants in this work, it is not difficult to conjecture. Who understands better than the papal leaders how to deal with those
who are disobedient to the church?

However I expect Sunday Worship to be Legislated under President Biden as an Environmental Sabbath similar to Constantine decree in 321AD.
Royal edicts, general councils, and church ordinances sustained by secular power, were the steps by which the pagan
festival attained its position of honor in the Christian world. The first public measure enforcing Sunday observance was the law
enacted by Constantine. This edict required townspeople to rest on “the venerable day of the sun,” but permitted countrymen
to continue their agricultural pursuits. Though virtually a heathen statute, it was enforced by the emperor after his nominal
acceptance of Christianity.

PM Justin Trudeau will follow shortly afterward in Canada and then worldwide. I believe the legislating of Sunday Law will occur very soon, and could possibly be signed into law during the Solar Eclipse, which is near the Passover feast this year. Few realize how bad things are in America and Elsewhere in the world.
