For centuries, Rome has promoted what Scripture calls the “wine of her fornication” (Revelation 17:2)—teachings and traditions that replace God’s truth with human authority. Chief among these is the elevation of Sunday as the “Sabbath,” a direct contradiction to the seventh-day Sabbath established at Creation (Genesis 2:2–3), reaffirmed in the Ten Commandments (Exodus 20:8–11), and upheld by Christ and His apostles (Mark 2:28; Acts 17:2). Today, the Catholic Church continues to advocate this counterfeit day of worship, calling Sunday observance an essential part of Christian life.
ChurchPOP, a Catholic news outlet dedicated to spreading the Catholic faith throughout the world, published an article on September 19, 2025, discussing the importance of observing Sunday and how this day is essential for spiritual life, family relationships, and restoring our commitment with the Lord. It even went so far as to claim that the world could more easily survive without the sun than without Sunday Mass. The article expressed the following:
• “Keeping the Sabbath holy is an important aspect of Catholic life!” [1]
• “Sometimes, it can seem easy to slip into our normal routines every day of the week.” [1]
• “Despite our very complex and busy modern times, we must strive to keep the ‘Sabbath Day’—Sunday—holy.” [1]
• “Since the days of the Apostles, the Church community has gathered together on Sunday to attend Mass.” [1]
• “It would be easier for the world to survive without the sun than to do without Holy Mass.” [1]
• “Of course, the best way to keep the Sabbath day holy is to attend Mass.” [1]
• “In our fast-paced world, sometimes Sunday becomes ‘catch-up’ day—of running to the store, doing laundry, and the like.” [1]
• “During the week, our relationships can get pushed to the side. Make time on Sunday to reconnect with loved ones!” [1]
By continually teaching that Sunday is the day of rest and worship, Rome is perpetuating the great deception warned of in Bible prophecy. Substituting Sunday for the true Sabbath is a direct challenge to the authority of God’s law. Revelation 13 foretells a time when the enforcement of this false worship will culminate in the “mark of the beast,” a sign of allegiance to human authority above the word of God.
The final crisis will hinge upon worship—whether people will obey the commandments of God or the teaching of men. As Rome continues to promote the wine of Sunday sacredness, many are being led to believe that honoring this counterfeit day is the true test of faithfulness. Yet Scripture declares that the seventh-day Sabbath remains God’s eternal sign of loyalty (Ezekiel 20:12, 20).
“The Sabbath will be the great test of loyalty; for it is the point of truth especially controverted. When the final test shall be brought to bear upon men, then the line of distinction will be drawn between those who serve God and those who serve him not. While the observance of the false sabbath in compliance with the law of the State, contrary to the fourth commandment, will be an avowal of allegiance to a power that is in opposition to God, the keeping of the true Sabbath, in obedience to God’s law, is an evidence of loyalty to the Creator. While one class, by accepting the sign of submission to earthly powers, receive the mark of the beast, the other, choosing the token of allegiance to divine authority, receive the seal of God” (Great Controversy, p. 605).

We must begin to ask ourselves, what’s the holy communion? This is partaking of the body of Jesus Christ in form of eucharist. So, the term holy communion is not used in protestant religion. It’s a Roman catholic terminology. Protestants particularly the Seventh Day Adventists use the term ”Lord’s supper”to commemorate the death and resurrection of Christ. So, why does the Roman Catholic Church continue with spurious ministry of priesthood, yet in the book of Hebrews 8:1-5, tells us for we have a heavenly high priest who lives in the right hand of God. The reason is because the Roman Church simply does not want earthly inhabitants to know that there is a heavenly sanctuary in heaven where christ makes human intercession for us.
In the era of the previous Pope Francis who is now deceased, he wrote an encyclical letter, on the year 2015. He wrote the LAUDATO SI, #237, he says, Sunday should be observed as the holy day , like the Jewish Sabbath. He continues to say that Sunday is the first day of ressurection and also the first day of creation. On the last part of the # 237, he says, that this day of sunday is centered celebration of eucharist. We must bear in mind , Sunday is a spurious sabbath, which is the child of the papacy. So, Sunday observance and partaking of the eucharist is the central to the Roman Catholic worship.
This partaking of Eucharist, which they say is partaking of body of Christ is compete mockery of Christ sacrifice on the cross. Christ was crucified on the cross as the true sacrifice, then on the third day he rose from the dead, and now he is making intercession for us in heaven. Yet there is a false system of worship which pretends to have a priest who can forgive sins and alter to change God’s immutable law.This is the system that has deceived the masses to worship on the first day of the week instead of God’s sabbath (SATURDAY). God is forewarning the earth’s inhabitants to get rid of this satanic system of worship and return the original Biblical God’s worship. The ball is on the human race to choose between the truth and error.
