Major disruptions and chaos are coming this Sunday, as the union’s Sunday ban is coming this weekend to the UK. Rail lines in England are indispensable for transportation, serving as the backbone of the country’s mobility network. They provide essential connectivity between major cities, towns, and rural areas, offering a swift and efficient mode of travel for millions of passengers daily. However, thousands of trains will stop this weekend, forcing hundreds of thousands of people to rest on Sunday.
The Independent, a British news outlet, reported on February 3, 2024, that hundreds of thousands of train passengers were expected to experience “Sunday Train Chaos” this weekend as a result of a one-day strike called by the unions. The article stated:
• “For hundreds of thousands of rail passengers, Sunday will prove chaotic. There are no actual rail strikes: it’s a one-day pause in the current round of walkouts by train drivers. Yet their overtime ban continues, and as a result, thousands of trains will be cancelled.” [1]
• “Large swathes of the nation will be without trains, with West Midlands Railway, London Northwestern Railway and Chiltern Railways canceling all their services.” [1]
• “In the early hours of Sunday, Thameslink and Great Northern issued a “Do Not Travel” notice for their networks.” [1]
• “The effect of an overtime ban on Sunday services will be dramatic. While staff on most forms of public transport, such as buses and planes, can be required to work on any day of the week, Sunday is a day of rest for many rail staff. Train drivers whose contracts don’t have Sunday in the working week are perfectly entitled to choose not to work. As a result, large swathes of the nation will be without rail services – with the Midlands and the West of England particularly hard hit.” [1]
• “One rail industry insider said the Sunday move by Aslef could turn out to be counter-productive for the union – by drawing attention to the restrictive agreements that ministers say they want to reform.” [1]
The message that is being sent out is to avoid traveling on Sunday. According to the article, Sunday is the day of rest for many rail staff. And as thousands of trains will be stopped on Sunday, what are the people to do? Stay home or go to church? As a result of the Sunday ban, many people will probably end up attending church, given that Sunday is already designated as a day of rest. That is the message, thanks to the unions’ decision to use chaos and disruption to achieve their objectives.
“The trade unions will be one of the agencies that will bring upon this earth a time of trouble such as has not been since the world began” (Selected Messages, Vol. 2, p. 142).
“The work of the people of God is to prepare for the events of the future, which will soon come upon them with blinding force. In the world, gigantic monopolies will be formed. Men will bind themselves together in unions that will wrap them in the folds of the enemy. A few men will combine to grasp all the means to be obtained in certain lines of business. Trade unions will be formed, and those who refuse to join these unions will be marked men” (Selected Messages, Vol. 2, p. 142).
Here we see firsthand how the labor unions are using a Sunday ban to put pressure on employers and authorities and on the nation to meet their demands. When disruptions like work stoppages, slowdowns, or strikes occur, employers may suffer significant financial losses that force them to engage in contract negotiations aimed at providing better working conditions. Furthermore, causing mayhem can help the union get sympathy and attention from the general public, increase awareness of problems that impact workers, and win over the larger community.
What the labor unions don’t know is that they are serving the interests of Rome with their disruptive tactics and Sunday rest strategies. Unions will work with the churches on the issue of Sunday rest. Rome will use any and all confederacies to further its Sunday agenda. While the church will provide moral and spiritual support, the labor unions will perform the dirty work for Rome by engaging in chaos, disputes, and fighting.
“The trade unions and confederacies of the world are a snare. Keep out of them, and away from them, brethren. Have nothing to do with them. Because of these unions and confederacies, it will soon be very difficult for our institutions to carry on their work in the cities” (Selected Messages, Vol. 2, p. 142).

Things are rapidly converging for the Sunday Law Crisis. I Personally believe Labour Unions will be one of the means used to force employers to give workers Sunday Rest. In Australia the Albanese Labour Government has Passed Legislation requiring Employers to give workers time off from phone and email when at home. In My Personal Opinion it is only another step for the Government to Legislate that workers be given Sunday Rest. That is the way things are Moving in Australia Rapidly! Having given the Unions this Concession, it is only a matter of when and not if the Government grants them more Power and Concessions. Unions will be one of the tools Satan uses to bring in Sunday Worship, especially in nations like Australia who have had some Religious liberty and Freedom of Worship. If it all came from the Churches their would be a Revolt against the Clergy in Australia.
These unions are one of the signs of the last days. Men are
binding up in bundles ready to be burned. They may be church
members, but while they belong to these unions, they cannot possibly
keep the commandments of God; for to belong to these unions means
to disregard the entire Decalogue.
Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with
all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and
thy neighbour as thyself” (Luke 10:27). These words sum up the
whole duty of man. They mean the consecration of the whole being,
body, soul, and spirit, to God’s service. How can men obey these
words, and at the same time pledge themselves to support that which
deprives their neighbors of freedom of action? And how can men
obey these words, and form combinations that rob the poorer classes
of the advantages which justly belong to them, preventing them
from buying or selling, except under certain conditions?—Letter 26,
1903.
Those who claim to be the children of God are in no case to bind
up with the labor unions that are formed or that shall be formed.
This the Lord forbids. Cannot those who study the prophecies see
and understand what is before us?—Letter 201, 1902.

If any Church member or Believer is a member of a Trade Union Reading the above [ especially an Adventist ] I Advise you to Cancel Union Membership now. You are assisting Satan’s cause, Not the Lords.
This is not true the rail unions have been doing strikes for almost 2 years this is nothing but strike action not to stop the trains from running on Sunday.
Please think before you write these things and actually know what you are saying.
