The book of Revelation
predicts that some day
00:00:08.50\00:00:11.87
the Mark of the Beast will be
enforced by Law around the world
00:00:11.91\00:00:16.38
get ready for the
details on His Voice Today.
00:00:16.41\00:00:20.48
Welcome to
another His Voice Today
00:00:20.52\00:00:26.05
with Steve Wohlberg.
00:00:26.09\00:00:30.99
The title of this
power-packed message
00:00:31.03\00:00:34.03
is called: The Mark
of the BEAST ENFORCED.
00:00:34.06\00:00:36.87
My goal is to share
information with you
00:00:36.90\00:00:39.63
and what you do with that
information... that is up to you
00:00:39.67\00:00:43.37
I don't know if you've
watched my past presentations
00:00:43.41\00:00:47.64
but we've gone into
detail about the beast
00:00:47.68\00:00:51.81
and about the Mark of the Beast
00:00:51.85\00:00:53.62
in other programs
of His Voice Today
00:00:53.68\00:00:56.05
and if you've
missed those programs,
00:00:56.08\00:00:58.39
because they have really
built up and laid the foundation
00:00:58.42\00:01:01.09
for what we're
going to do today...
00:01:01.12\00:01:02.46
if you've missed those programs,
I encourage you to go to
00:01:02.49\00:01:07.20
YouTube. com forward slash
whitehorse media and catch up
00:01:07.23\00:01:12.07
but anyway here we go...
00:01:12.13\00:01:14.07
it's time to talk about
00:01:14.10\00:01:15.97
the enforcement of
the Mark of the Beast.
00:01:16.00\00:01:17.37
In Revelation chapter 13
verse 16 the Bible predicts,
00:01:17.41\00:01:23.04
"And he causes all...
" "cause" implies force
00:01:23.08\00:01:27.62
"He causes all,
both small and great,
00:01:27.65\00:01:29.52
rich and poor, free and bond,
00:01:29.58\00:01:30.92
to receive a mark
in their right hand,
00:01:30.95\00:01:33.05
or in their foreheads:
00:01:33.12\00:01:34.69
And that no man
might buy or sell,
00:01:34.72\00:01:36.89
save he that had the
mark, or the name of the beast,
00:01:36.93\00:01:40.43
or the number of his name. "
00:01:40.46\00:01:42.66
Now, first of all,
I'll just quickly recap
00:01:42.70\00:01:46.63
what we've
talked about in the past
00:01:46.67\00:01:48.17
about who the
"beast" is in Bible prophecy
00:01:48.20\00:01:51.77
if you were to
go back to the 1500s
00:01:51.81\00:01:53.71
and talked to the
Protestant Reformers
00:01:53.74\00:01:55.54
and they were
unanimous on who the beast is
00:01:55.58\00:01:58.11
I've got in my library...
and here in my hand...
00:01:58.15\00:02:01.42
a copy of Fox's Book of Martyrs
00:02:01.45\00:02:04.62
this is an ancient classic
00:02:04.65\00:02:07.62
dealing with the Christian
martyrs and the persecutions
00:02:07.66\00:02:10.19
and inquisition and
on page 43 of this book,
00:02:10.23\00:02:14.46
it tells us who the Protestants
believed that the "beast" was.
00:02:14.50\00:02:18.77
Page 43 says,
"Disregarding the maxims
00:02:18.80\00:02:22.54
and the spirit of the
gospel, the Papal Church
00:02:22.57\00:02:25.74
arming herself with
the power of the sword
00:02:25.77\00:02:28.88
persecuted the church of God
00:02:28.91\00:02:30.98
and wasted it
for several centuries
00:02:31.01\00:02:32.95
a period, most
appropriately termed in history,
00:02:32.98\00:02:35.82
The Dark Ages... "
00:02:35.85\00:02:37.19
and then it says that
the kings of the earth
00:02:37.22\00:02:39.49
gave their power and
their strength to the beast.
00:02:39.52\00:02:43.93
So this is Fox's Book of Martyrs
00:02:43.96\00:02:46.29
it used to be
next to the bedsides of
00:02:46.36\00:02:49.16
the Puritans and the Pilgrims
who came across the Atlantic
00:02:49.20\00:02:52.57
from England and from Holland
00:02:52.60\00:02:55.64
coming to establish colonies
to help establish America,
00:02:55.67\00:02:59.27
this book was a
classic and they read it
00:02:59.31\00:03:01.44
and they knew... they
knew who the beast was.
00:03:01.48\00:03:03.91
Now, the Bible also says
that the beast will have a mark,
00:03:03.95\00:03:07.92
it will have a mark
that will be enforced
00:03:07.95\00:03:10.79
and I mentioned
this in the last program.
00:03:10.82\00:03:12.95
This is a copy of a
Roman Catholic Catechism
00:03:12.99\00:03:15.82
by Pierre
Geiermann published in 1946
00:03:15.86\00:03:19.56
and it comes right out
openly and it says, question:
00:03:19.59\00:03:21.96
What day is the Sabbath day?
00:03:22.00\00:03:23.37
Answer: Saturday
is the Sabbath day.
00:03:23.40\00:03:26.10
Question: Why then do we observe
Sunday instead of Saturday?
00:03:26.13\00:03:28.80
The answer is:
Because the Catholic Church
00:03:28.84\00:03:32.04
transferred the solemnity
from Saturday to Sunday.
00:03:32.07\00:03:36.85
So, here's Fox's Book of
Martyrs identifying the beast
00:03:36.88\00:03:39.75
which was really a System...
it's not individuals...
00:03:39.78\00:03:42.62
it's a System...
called the Roman Church
00:03:42.65\00:03:45.82
which has done a
lot of things in history
00:03:45.85\00:03:48.99
that fulfills prophecy...
00:03:49.02\00:03:50.43
and that's what the
Protestants believed,
00:03:50.46\00:03:51.79
and here is the
Roman Church's Catechism
00:03:51.83\00:03:54.40
that says that they
changed the Sabbath into Sunday
00:03:54.43\00:03:57.73
and they actually
see Sunday Observance
00:03:57.77\00:04:01.30
as a mark of their
authority as the true church.
00:04:01.34\00:04:06.47
Now, I know that's shocking
but these are historical facts
00:04:06.51\00:04:11.95
and when we go back
to Revelation chapter 14
00:04:12.01\00:04:15.82
verses 9 to 12...
00:04:15.85\00:04:17.19
we have a warning
about the Mark of the Beast
00:04:17.22\00:04:19.19
and at the end of verse 11
00:04:19.22\00:04:22.52
we have a warning about
those who receive the mark
00:04:22.56\00:04:25.39
and then verse 12 says,
00:04:25.43\00:04:26.76
"Here is the
patience of the saints;
00:04:26.80\00:04:28.13
here are they that
keep the commandments of God
00:04:28.16\00:04:30.80
and the faith of Jesus. "
00:04:30.83\00:04:32.73
And so, here are
the Ten Commandments...
00:04:32.77\00:04:34.97
here's one of
the tables of stone
00:04:35.00\00:04:37.74
and Revelation
talks about the beast
00:04:37.77\00:04:40.44
and that it would have a mark
and then in verse 12 it says,
00:04:40.48\00:04:43.45
"to avoid the mark is
to be among the people...
00:04:43.48\00:04:46.55
the saints who keep
00:04:46.58\00:04:47.92
God's Commandments and
the faith of Jesus... "
00:04:47.95\00:04:50.62
and verse 7... in the
same chapter it says that
00:04:50.65\00:04:53.46
we need to worship Him
that made heaven and earth
00:04:53.49\00:04:56.29
and the sea and the
fountains of waters,
00:04:56.32\00:04:57.66
and the fact is... when we
look at the Ten Commandments,
00:04:57.69\00:05:00.00
there's only one Commandment
00:05:00.03\00:05:01.50
that talks about the
Creator of heaven and earth
00:05:01.56\00:05:04.57
one of the big ten...
and it's number four...
00:05:04.60\00:05:07.60
which identifies
the 7th-day Sabbath
00:05:07.64\00:05:10.44
as God's special day,
and that is the Commandment
00:05:10.47\00:05:13.68
that the Roman church
00:05:13.71\00:05:15.04
which Protestants have
believed for a long time...
00:05:15.08\00:05:17.25
is the beast of prophecy...
00:05:17.28\00:05:18.85
has changed and
they claim it is a mark
00:05:18.88\00:05:23.39
of their authority
in religious matters.
00:05:23.42\00:05:27.86
Now, if all of this is true,
if this information is correct,
00:05:27.89\00:05:32.03
and I don't expect you to take
my word for it... for anything
00:05:32.06\00:05:35.83
and I'm not here to condemn
anybody but to share information
00:05:35.86\00:05:39.63
and you can do with
it whatever you choose
00:05:39.67\00:05:42.47
but if this is all true that
the beast is the Roman Church,
00:05:42.50\00:05:47.34
and that its mark is
its change of God's holy day
00:05:47.38\00:05:52.05
into the first day of the week,
00:05:52.08\00:05:53.58
then when the Bible says,
00:05:53.62\00:05:54.95
"He causes all,
both small and great,
00:05:54.98\00:05:56.79
rich and poor, free and
bond, to receive a mark... "
00:05:56.85\00:05:58.75
we can expect that
at some point in history
00:05:58.79\00:06:01.82
during the final
crisis that Sunday observance
00:06:01.86\00:06:04.33
will be enforced by
Law around the world.
00:06:04.36\00:06:08.13
Now, is this possible,
is this just some crazy idea
00:06:08.16\00:06:11.97
or is it something that
can actually really happen
00:06:12.00\00:06:15.80
in America and around the world?
00:06:15.84\00:06:17.87
Well, let's discuss
this, it is a fact of history
00:06:17.91\00:06:21.14
that Sunday has been legislated
00:06:21.18\00:06:24.28
for hundreds of
years in the past
00:06:24.31\00:06:27.35
the first Sunday Law
was passed in the year 321
00:06:27.38\00:06:31.75
by the Emperor of
Rome, Constantine on March...
00:06:31.79\00:06:35.82
I've got the date
right... March 21... 321 A.D.
00:06:35.86\00:06:39.53
it's a historical event,
it's in the history books
00:06:39.56\00:06:43.13
and that was
basically the first time
00:06:43.16\00:06:45.87
that Sunday had ever
been enforced by legislation,
00:06:45.90\00:06:48.60
if we go down European history,
if we go into British history,
00:06:48.67\00:06:53.21
and into
Colonial American history,
00:06:53.24\00:06:55.84
you'll find that Sunday has been
enforced in various degrees,
00:06:55.88\00:06:59.28
those Laws used to
be called, "Blue Laws"
00:06:59.31\00:07:02.08
I've got a book
right here called,
00:07:02.12\00:07:04.45
"Dateline: Sunday,
U.S.A." written by an Attorney,
00:07:04.49\00:07:06.72
Warren Johns and
the subtitle says,
00:07:06.76\00:07:09.49
"This is the story of
three and half centuries
00:07:09.52\00:07:12.39
of Sunday Law Battles in America
00:07:12.43\00:07:14.43
and this talks about the
Court records and the struggles
00:07:14.46\00:07:16.97
between... whether
Sunday should be enforced by Law
00:07:17.00\00:07:19.43
or whether this was
constitutional or not...
00:07:19.47\00:07:21.40
it talks about
the Blair Sunday Bill
00:07:21.44\00:07:24.74
that was introduced into
Congress in the year 1888
00:07:24.77\00:07:27.38
seeking National
Sunday Legislation
00:07:27.41\00:07:29.31
and how it was defeated,
the facts of history are here.
00:07:29.34\00:07:33.21
Did you know
that George Washington
00:07:33.25\00:07:35.02
was almost thrown in jail
00:07:35.05\00:07:36.75
because he kissed
his wife on a Sunday,
00:07:36.79\00:07:38.89
the Blue Laws were very strict
00:07:38.95\00:07:41.22
back in the days of
early Colonial America
00:07:41.26\00:07:44.19
but they've be loosened now
00:07:44.23\00:07:46.80
and so now we don't
have those kinds of laws
00:07:46.86\00:07:48.96
but there are... there are many,
00:07:49.00\00:07:51.63
there are forces,
there are churches,
00:07:51.67\00:07:53.17
that are Organizations that are
very active at this very moment
00:07:53.20\00:07:57.74
that would like to see
those old Blue Laws kick back in
00:07:57.77\00:08:01.61
so that Sunday could be
once again legislated by Law,
00:08:01.64\00:08:05.48
here I have a copy of the
00:08:05.51\00:08:07.52
large official
catechism of the Roman Church
00:08:07.55\00:08:10.19
published in 1994,
00:08:10.22\00:08:11.55
this is their big
book of their doctrines,
00:08:11.59\00:08:13.15
and on page 538, this book
comes out very, very clearly
00:08:13.19\00:08:18.39
in support of Sunday
legislation they believe in it,
00:08:18.43\00:08:23.63
they encourage
their members to seek it,
00:08:23.67\00:08:27.20
actually, I'm sorry, it's 528...
it says that public authorities
00:08:27.24\00:08:32.14
should ensure citizens
a time intended for rest
00:08:32.17\00:08:35.28
and divine worship,
00:08:35.31\00:08:36.64
Christians should
seek recognition of Sundays
00:08:36.68\00:08:39.91
as legal
holiday... so the church...
00:08:39.95\00:08:42.55
the Catholic Church has
gone on record of wanting this
00:08:42.58\00:08:45.85
many Popes have gone
on record wanting this,
00:08:45.89\00:08:49.19
there's a whole Organization...
an Alliance in Europe
00:08:49.22\00:08:51.73
called the,
"European Sunday Alliance"
00:08:51.76\00:08:54.10
that seeking for
Sunday Legislation
00:08:54.13\00:08:56.36
but at this point... it's
never happened on a national
00:08:56.40\00:09:00.37
or specially not
on a global scale.
00:09:00.44\00:09:02.94
Is something like
this actually possible?
00:09:02.97\00:09:06.71
Let me share with you some very
volatile and serious information
00:09:06.74\00:09:16.25
let's go back a few years
00:09:16.28\00:09:19.19
to the day that
the towers came down,
00:09:19.22\00:09:21.19
September 11, 2001,
00:09:21.22\00:09:24.49
I remember where I
was when that time hit,
00:09:24.53\00:09:26.90
I was in Texas... my phone
rang, it was a friend of mine,
00:09:26.96\00:09:29.23
and he said, "Steve, you've
got to turn on your TV... "
00:09:29.26\00:09:31.53
and I did... and
I was shocked to see
00:09:31.57\00:09:33.97
one of the twin towers burning
00:09:34.00\00:09:35.50
right in front of my
eyes on live television
00:09:35.54\00:09:37.41
and then I was shocked to see
00:09:37.44\00:09:38.84
another plane
hit the second tower
00:09:38.87\00:09:40.71
and then the second
tower was burning...
00:09:40.74\00:09:42.44
and then I saw the
first tower go down
00:09:42.51\00:09:44.25
and then I saw the
second tower go down,
00:09:44.28\00:09:46.21
and along with
millions of Americans
00:09:46.25\00:09:47.78
and people around the world,
00:09:47.82\00:09:49.15
I watched those
images over and over again
00:09:49.18\00:09:51.25
and I had a very strong sense
that something big was happening
00:09:51.29\00:09:56.73
that something
apocalyptic was going on
00:09:56.76\00:09:58.96
and that I needed to
really sit up and take notice
00:09:58.99\00:10:03.70
and, of course,
pray for the families...
00:10:03.73\00:10:07.30
of the victims... which I did...
00:10:07.34\00:10:09.54
now, let me tie
this in with prophecy,
00:10:09.60\00:10:12.64
I strongly believe that
there is a deep lesson for us
00:10:12.67\00:10:15.88
and a significance of what
happened during the week of 911
00:10:15.94\00:10:19.21
if you recall... the
date September 11, 2001
00:10:19.25\00:10:23.28
took place on a Tuesday...
00:10:23.32\00:10:25.02
on a Tuesday...
don't forget that.
00:10:25.05\00:10:26.92
Three days later there was a
00:10:26.96\00:10:29.06
big church service
in Washington, D.C.
00:10:29.09\00:10:32.03
in the National Cathedral
and it was a church service
00:10:32.06\00:10:35.53
where lots of different
politicians, congressmen,
00:10:35.56\00:10:38.97
senators,
presidents, they were all there,
00:10:39.00\00:10:41.57
and anyone who really
was anybody in America
00:10:41.60\00:10:44.11
as far as Washington
Leadership, they were at that...
00:10:44.14\00:10:48.11
at that church
service and it was really a...
00:10:48.14\00:10:50.61
it was a prayer
meeting, Billy Graham was there
00:10:50.65\00:10:52.41
representing the
Protestant world,
00:10:52.45\00:10:53.78
there was a Rabbi there
representing the Jewish world,
00:10:53.82\00:10:56.08
there was an Imam
representing the Muslim world,
00:10:56.15\00:10:59.52
there was a
Cardinal representing
00:10:59.55\00:11:01.82
the Roman Catholic
church and one by one,
00:11:01.86\00:11:04.49
these different
leaders, gave speeches
00:11:04.53\00:11:07.13
and they encouraged
people to come together
00:11:07.16\00:11:09.63
into unity and to pray because
the crisis was very real,
00:11:09.66\00:11:14.30
when you hit
the financial center
00:11:14.34\00:11:16.81
of the most powerful,
political nation in the world,
00:11:16.87\00:11:20.71
the potential
for a ripple effect
00:11:20.74\00:11:23.08
to affect the
global... global economy...
00:11:23.11\00:11:25.48
was very, very real and so,
00:11:25.51\00:11:28.55
on the Friday
following the Tuesday 911,
00:11:28.58\00:11:31.25
people came together from
different religions to pray
00:11:31.29\00:11:34.32
and I'm certainly not
against praying in a crisis...
00:11:34.36\00:11:37.36
we need to pray
now and all the time,
00:11:37.39\00:11:40.33
specially in the days ahead
but anyway that was on Friday,
00:11:40.36\00:11:44.73
so you had crisis... Tuesday...
a move for unity on Friday...
00:11:44.77\00:11:49.10
what happened two days later?
00:11:49.14\00:11:51.64
Two days later was a Sunday
00:11:51.67\00:11:54.01
and I want to tell
you that the following...
00:11:54.04\00:11:55.88
that on the Sunday
following September 11,
00:11:55.91\00:11:58.28
church attendance
went through the roof,
00:11:58.31\00:12:00.98
not just in America
but Europe, Australia,
00:12:01.02\00:12:03.62
around the world...
people were going to church,
00:12:03.65\00:12:06.65
like they had never
gone to church before
00:12:06.69\00:12:08.89
and what is the reason for that?
00:12:08.92\00:12:11.09
The reason is
simple, like I said,
00:12:11.13\00:12:13.09
when you hit the
financial nerve center
00:12:13.13\00:12:15.33
of the world's largest
and most powerful economy,
00:12:15.36\00:12:19.63
the potential for a
disastrous ripple effect
00:12:19.67\00:12:25.84
to bring down the
economies of the world...
00:12:25.87\00:12:27.21
is very, very real, and so...
00:12:27.24\00:12:29.38
and people were
scared, people were scared,
00:12:29.41\00:12:31.58
they knew something
serious was going on,
00:12:31.61\00:12:33.72
trading stopped on the
New York Stock Exchange
00:12:33.75\00:12:36.72
and people were
just in a state of panic,
00:12:36.75\00:12:39.42
what is going on,
what is going to happen?
00:12:39.45\00:12:42.09
now, again,
think of the sequence,
00:12:42.12\00:12:43.89
Tuesday was a crisis,
Friday... was a move for unity,
00:12:43.93\00:12:48.86
and then... Sunday...
00:12:48.90\00:12:50.23
church attendance
went through the roof,
00:12:50.27\00:12:52.63
so, here is the sequence,
crisis, unity, Sunday...
00:12:52.70\00:12:58.47
crisis, unity, Sunday...
00:12:58.51\00:13:01.08
now, thankfully, what
happened over ten years ago
00:13:01.11\00:13:05.31
during the week
and following weeks,
00:13:05.35\00:13:08.72
after September 11... it
did not continue to unravel
00:13:08.75\00:13:12.95
into a real,
desperate global crisis,
00:13:12.99\00:13:18.56
it didn't happen...
00:13:18.59\00:13:19.93
I think that the angels held
back the forces of darkness...
00:13:19.96\00:13:24.07
held back the
forces of total chaos,
00:13:24.10\00:13:26.50
God is still holding
on to His world, somehow,
00:13:26.53\00:13:29.30
but it didn't really
completely unravel...
00:13:29.34\00:13:32.31
and so the crisis
eventually went away
00:13:32.37\00:13:35.31
and then Stock
Exchange went back
00:13:35.34\00:13:38.08
and there has been
somewhat of a recovery,
00:13:38.11\00:13:41.28
but the Bible predicts
that some day in the future,
00:13:41.32\00:13:45.72
we are going to hit a crisis
00:13:45.75\00:13:47.09
that we are not
going to get out of.
00:13:47.12\00:13:48.46
Daniel chapter 12 verse 1
00:13:48.49\00:13:49.86
says that there will
be a time of trouble,
00:13:49.89\00:13:52.13
such as never was
since there was a Nation
00:13:52.16\00:13:54.03
even to that same time...
00:13:54.06\00:13:55.40
what is going to
precipitate that crisis...
00:13:55.43\00:13:58.30
what will be the catalyst of
that crisis... I don't know...
00:13:58.33\00:14:01.07
I don't know whether it might
be another terrorist attack
00:14:01.10\00:14:04.01
whether it might be a whole
series of natural disasters,
00:14:04.04\00:14:07.41
whether it might be some
kind of an economic meltdown,
00:14:07.44\00:14:10.78
I just don't
know... I'm not a prophet,
00:14:10.81\00:14:13.31
but I do know
according to the Bible
00:14:13.38\00:14:15.85
that we are going to
enter in at some point
00:14:15.88\00:14:18.82
and it's going to happen very
quickly when it finally hits,
00:14:18.85\00:14:21.86
into the final crisis at the
end of the history of this world
00:14:21.89\00:14:24.86
and when that crisis hits,
00:14:24.89\00:14:28.26
I can guarantee you...
you can bet your bottom dollar
00:14:28.33\00:14:32.40
and you may not
have a lot of money,
00:14:32.43\00:14:34.60
but you can...
you get my point...
00:14:34.67\00:14:36.81
you can bet your bottom
dollar that what happened
00:14:36.84\00:14:39.64
during the week of
September 11, 2001,
00:14:39.67\00:14:43.68
will happen again...
00:14:43.71\00:14:45.45
and it's just
because of human nature,
00:14:45.48\00:14:47.02
have you ever
heard the expression?
00:14:47.05\00:14:48.55
Many people have said,
00:14:48.58\00:14:50.09
"there are no
Atheists in fox holes"
00:14:50.15\00:14:51.89
it's true... when people
come face to face with crisis,
00:14:51.92\00:14:56.22
with death... with disaster,
00:14:56.26\00:14:58.16
they... they often
drop to their knees
00:14:58.19\00:15:01.53
or at least they open
their mouths and they pray
00:15:01.56\00:15:04.53
and then they go to church
which is what most people do,
00:15:04.57\00:15:08.07
when they are in a crisis,
or at least a lot of people
00:15:08.10\00:15:11.54
and so, think
about human nature,
00:15:11.57\00:15:13.98
what happened during
the week of September 11
00:15:14.01\00:15:16.58
will happen again,
00:15:16.61\00:15:18.01
all we need is a
big enough crisis,
00:15:18.08\00:15:19.75
to bring about the
same sequence of events
00:15:19.78\00:15:22.42
there'll be a crisis,
00:15:22.45\00:15:23.85
then there'll be
a move toward unity,
00:15:23.89\00:15:26.62
coming together of
the world's religions
00:15:26.65\00:15:29.96
combined with
Governments, a move for unity
00:15:30.03\00:15:32.79
and that will be
followed, I can guarantee you
00:15:32.83\00:15:37.50
it will be followed by
people flocking to church
00:15:37.53\00:15:42.14
not on Saturday
and not on Friday...
00:15:42.17\00:15:45.54
but the majority of the world
00:15:45.57\00:15:47.51
are going to be
going to church on Sunday
00:15:47.58\00:15:49.78
because that is the
biggest day on the planet
00:15:49.81\00:15:51.98
for worship... it really is.
00:15:52.01\00:15:54.88
So, we're going to see
again crisis, unity, Sunday...
00:15:54.92\00:15:59.92
and if the crisis
doesn't resolve itself,
00:15:59.95\00:16:05.39
like it did...
so many years ago,
00:16:05.43\00:16:07.76
if the crisis
deepens... if it gets worse...
00:16:07.80\00:16:10.80
if people get desperate...
then what's going to happen
00:16:10.83\00:16:14.87
is Sunday attendance
will eventually shift
00:16:14.90\00:16:18.44
to the next... the next phase...
00:16:18.47\00:16:21.01
and the next phase
will be Sunday Legislation
00:16:21.04\00:16:25.28
in an hour of desperation,
00:16:25.31\00:16:28.12
to try to
force... in a final crisis,
00:16:28.15\00:16:32.49
to force humanity
to come back to God
00:16:32.55\00:16:36.83
and to pray to God for
the survival of the planet
00:16:36.86\00:16:41.73
and of the economy and
of the world's systems.
00:16:41.76\00:16:46.57
That's what's going to happen,
00:16:46.60\00:16:49.10
it's that is what
is going to happen
00:16:49.14\00:16:51.71
and as I
mentioned the Roman Church,
00:16:51.74\00:16:54.28
they are pushing for
Sunday Legislation in Europe
00:16:54.31\00:16:59.35
the European Sunday Alliance
00:16:59.38\00:17:00.98
is pushing for
Sunday Legislation
00:17:01.02\00:17:03.79
and when we hit a crisis,
if people are going to church,
00:17:03.82\00:17:08.22
but the crisis gets worse,
then we're going to see laws
00:17:08.29\00:17:12.66
that are going to kick in
00:17:12.69\00:17:14.03
as a last-ditch effort
to try to solve the problem
00:17:14.06\00:17:19.60
to force people to pray.
00:17:19.63\00:17:21.47
When that time
comes... when that time comes
00:17:21.50\00:17:25.61
you may not believe right now
that that time is going to come
00:17:25.64\00:17:29.34
I don't know when
you're watching this,
00:17:29.41\00:17:31.71
you might be watching this
in the middle of the crisis
00:17:31.75\00:17:34.28
and it may be
happening right now,
00:17:34.32\00:17:35.65
if it is... then you know
this message is right on target,
00:17:35.68\00:17:39.62
if you are
watching before it happens,
00:17:39.65\00:17:43.43
and if you're not sure when
this is really going to happen,
00:17:43.46\00:17:46.33
just ponder all
of this in your heart
00:17:46.36\00:17:49.06
and study your Bibles
to see what's right...
00:17:49.10\00:17:52.27
what's really right...
00:17:52.30\00:17:53.64
I strongly believe...
I'm honest about this belief,
00:17:53.67\00:17:57.44
I've studied my Bible for
years and years and years,
00:17:57.51\00:18:01.04
I've looked at the theories...
I know what other people say,
00:18:01.08\00:18:03.85
I've seen some of the movies
about the Mark of the Beast,
00:18:03.91\00:18:06.65
the novels, the
internet websites,
00:18:06.68\00:18:09.32
the radio
preachers... the TV preachers...
00:18:09.35\00:18:11.32
that say that the whole thing is
just really a technology issue
00:18:11.35\00:18:15.56
a technology issue,
but that's not what I read
00:18:15.62\00:18:19.09
in my Bible... let's
go back to Revelation 14
00:18:19.13\00:18:22.60
verse 9... Revelation 14:9 says,
00:18:22.63\00:18:25.57
"Then a third angel followed
them, saying with a loud voice,
00:18:25.60\00:18:28.37
'If any man worships the beast'"
00:18:28.40\00:18:30.87
and the beast is...
00:18:30.91\00:18:33.38
who the Protestants
used to believe it was...
00:18:33.41\00:18:36.41
they've lost this knowledge
00:18:36.44\00:18:38.11
but that knowledge
needs to be resurrected,
00:18:38.15\00:18:41.28
and I certainly...
I'm not saying that
00:18:41.32\00:18:43.15
every single person
within the church of Rome,
00:18:43.18\00:18:47.29
is "beastly... " you know,
that's just not true at all,
00:18:47.32\00:18:50.69
I believe there is going to be
a lot of sincere Roman Catholics
00:18:50.73\00:18:53.40
that are going to be
in the Kingdom of God,
00:18:53.43\00:18:54.76
I believe that...
00:18:54.80\00:18:56.13
because God is a
loving God and a merciful God
00:18:56.16\00:18:58.00
and He judges us based
upon the light that we have,
00:18:58.03\00:19:00.34
but it is a fact of
history that for 300 years
00:19:00.37\00:19:03.64
Protestant scholars from
Luther to Wesley to Calvin
00:19:03.67\00:19:06.68
to Jerome, to
Spurgeon, to Huss...
00:19:06.71\00:19:09.18
they all believed
that the beast was
00:19:09.21\00:19:12.05
a symbol of the
Roman Church System...
00:19:12.11\00:19:14.92
and the Bible warns...
00:19:14.95\00:19:17.25
"If anyone worships
the beast and his image,
00:19:17.29\00:19:19.69
and receives his mark... "
the mark comes from Rome...
00:19:19.72\00:19:22.59
it's a mark of Rome's
authority in the forehead
00:19:22.62\00:19:26.19
which does not
represent the skin or an implant
00:19:26.23\00:19:29.20
but it represents the
mind... inside the mind...
00:19:29.23\00:19:32.17
what people
think... "or the hand... "
00:19:32.20\00:19:34.70
which represents the actions...
what people choose to do
00:19:34.74\00:19:37.84
"the same shall drink the
wine of the wrath of God... "
00:19:37.87\00:19:40.94
it's a very serious warning...
00:19:40.98\00:19:42.31
and then verse 11
continues on with the warning
00:19:42.34\00:19:44.51
of what will happen
to those who get the mark
00:19:44.55\00:19:46.88
and at the end of
verse 11, it talks about
00:19:46.92\00:19:49.18
what will happen to "whoever
receives the mark of his name"
00:19:49.25\00:19:53.69
and then verse 12 says,
00:19:53.72\00:19:55.99
"Here is the
patience of the saints:
00:19:56.02\00:19:57.96
here are they that keep
the commandments of God,
00:19:57.99\00:20:03.06
and the faith of Jesus. "
00:20:03.10\00:20:06.53
The third angel's message
points to the safety zone.
00:20:06.57\00:20:10.27
During the Mark of the
Beast crisis, the Bible says,
00:20:10.31\00:20:13.91
the Bible says that the
safety zone is becoming a saint,
00:20:13.94\00:20:18.08
it's becoming a
person who chooses to keep
00:20:18.11\00:20:22.62
the Commandments of
God as God gave them
00:20:22.68\00:20:27.16
and the faith... it says,
00:20:27.19\00:20:29.22
the faith of Jesus...
Jesus is mentioned in...
00:20:29.26\00:20:33.96
it's the last word in verse 12,
and then there's the period...
00:20:34.00\00:20:37.10
Jesus... now some people say,
00:20:37.13\00:20:38.63
"We don't need the law
because we just have Jesus... "
00:20:38.67\00:20:41.54
but the Bible says that we
need to be followers of Jesus
00:20:41.60\00:20:44.41
and because we love
Jesus and believe in Jesus
00:20:44.47\00:20:47.48
and accept His
grace and His salvation
00:20:47.51\00:20:50.18
through His
power... we're born again...
00:20:50.21\00:20:52.81
and then we choose to
keep the commandments of God
00:20:52.85\00:20:55.55
we don't keep God's
law in order to be saved,
00:20:55.58\00:20:59.75
we keep God's law because
we have Jesus in our hearts
00:20:59.79\00:21:03.09
and we love Him and we
want to do what's right
00:21:03.12\00:21:05.56
and that's what the Bible says,
00:21:05.59\00:21:07.73
Jesus said, "If you love
me, keep my commandments. "
00:21:07.76\00:21:10.57
So these are the issues that
the book of Revelation reveals
00:21:10.60\00:21:14.44
and what's going to happen
is, once the crisis hits...
00:21:14.47\00:21:16.91
the final crisis... and
there's a move toward unity
00:21:16.94\00:21:19.21
and then, people are
going to church on Sunday
00:21:19.27\00:21:22.51
and the crisis
deepens and finally
00:21:22.54\00:21:24.51
Sunday attendance
shifts into Sunday Legislation
00:21:24.58\00:21:28.38
and that time... the
message of the third angel
00:21:28.45\00:21:32.19
is going to go out around
the world... with a loud voice
00:21:32.25\00:21:36.02
through ministries
like, "White Horse Media"
00:21:36.06\00:21:39.46
and through
many other ministries
00:21:39.49\00:21:41.13
that are going to
be faithful to God,
00:21:41.16\00:21:42.76
doing the best they can and
by the power of the Holy Spirit
00:21:42.80\00:21:46.47
they're going to be giving
God's last message to the world
00:21:46.50\00:21:49.94
and then, as the Ten
Commandments are lifted up,
00:21:50.01\00:21:52.74
just like I'm
trying to do right now,
00:21:52.77\00:21:54.94
the Ten
Commandments will be lifted up
00:21:54.98\00:21:57.11
people will have a
chance... all around the world
00:21:57.15\00:21:59.38
to look at the big ten... to
go down one, two, three, four
00:21:59.41\00:22:02.68
"Remember the Sabbath
day to keep it holy... "
00:22:02.72\00:22:04.99
and they'll be told two
things, they'll be told that
00:22:05.02\00:22:08.06
Sunday Legislation is
wrong because number one...
00:22:08.09\00:22:11.09
it's the wrong day...
00:22:11.13\00:22:12.46
and number two...
it involves force...
00:22:12.49\00:22:16.03
God never forces
people to love Him...
00:22:16.06\00:22:19.67
or to follow Him or to obey Him,
00:22:19.70\00:22:21.67
He always gives us
free will to make a choice
00:22:21.70\00:22:24.84
as the Holy Spirit
speaks to our conscience.
00:22:24.87\00:22:28.58
So, the world will
have to make a final choice,
00:22:28.61\00:22:32.28
the Ten
Commandments will be lifted up
00:22:32.31\00:22:33.72
and as God's Law is lifted up
00:22:33.75\00:22:35.58
and people realize
what they really say,
00:22:35.62\00:22:37.79
what the real day is...
00:22:37.85\00:22:39.52
the seventh-day Sabbath
that points to Jesus Christ
00:22:39.55\00:22:41.62
as the creator
of heaven and earth,
00:22:41.66\00:22:43.43
then they're going to realize
00:22:43.46\00:22:45.73
that they are
commandment breakers
00:22:45.79\00:22:47.46
and that they need a Savior
and those that are honest,
00:22:47.50\00:22:51.10
those that are seeking truth and
who want to be on God's side,
00:22:51.13\00:22:55.90
they're going to be hungry...
00:22:55.97\00:22:57.44
hungering for
the cross of Calvary
00:22:57.47\00:23:00.78
and so the commandments
of God would be lifted up
00:23:00.81\00:23:03.21
and the faith of
Jesus would be lifted up
00:23:03.24\00:23:05.78
and God's
people around the world
00:23:05.81\00:23:07.75
will lift Jesus up
higher and higher and higher
00:23:07.78\00:23:09.32
and people will have a chance
to look at the One who died
00:23:09.35\00:23:13.32
on the cross for the
sins of the whole world
00:23:13.36\00:23:15.89
and they will
realize that Jesus died
00:23:15.92\00:23:18.49
because we have
broken God's law...
00:23:18.53\00:23:20.83
that's why He died... sin
is breaking the commandments
00:23:20.86\00:23:24.17
including the
fourth... and Jesus agonized...
00:23:24.20\00:23:26.97
He suffered... and
He died on a cruel cross
00:23:27.00\00:23:29.84
2,000 years ago for
your sins and for my sins
00:23:29.87\00:23:32.67
where we've broken the law
00:23:32.71\00:23:34.14
that's why His heart
was broken on Calvary
00:23:34.18\00:23:38.08
and then, hallelujah,
He rose from the dead
00:23:38.11\00:23:41.88
and then, the
world will be brought
00:23:41.92\00:23:44.49
to a final point of decision
00:23:44.52\00:23:46.72
whose side
will... will people be on?
00:23:46.76\00:23:51.23
Will they choose the
beast or will they choose God?
00:23:51.26\00:23:54.96
Will they choose tradition
or will they choose truth?
00:23:55.03\00:23:58.70
Will they choose the
day that man has changed
00:23:58.73\00:24:03.51
and is it now enforcing by Law?
00:24:03.54\00:24:05.74
Or will they choose the day
00:24:05.77\00:24:07.91
that God has
written with His own finger
00:24:07.94\00:24:09.64
on two tables of stone
00:24:09.68\00:24:11.55
that ultimately that day...
points to Jesus Christ Himself
00:24:11.58\00:24:16.25
as the Maker of
heaven and earth?
00:24:16.28\00:24:18.15
These are the choices...
that's what the Bible says
00:24:18.19\00:24:20.76
I'm not making this up,
00:24:20.79\00:24:22.36
these verses are going
to be read around the world
00:24:22.39\00:24:25.99
and the Holy Spirit is going
to be talking to people's hearts
00:24:26.03\00:24:29.40
just like the Spirit of
God is talking to you...
00:24:29.43\00:24:32.33
verse 11 says,
00:24:32.37\00:24:33.94
"Don't get the
Mark of the Beast"
00:24:33.97\00:24:35.40
and verse 12 says,
00:24:35.44\00:24:36.91
"Here is the
patience of the saints;
00:24:36.94\00:24:39.44
here are they that
keep the commandments of God
00:24:39.47\00:24:44.11
and the faith of Jesus. "
00:24:44.15\00:24:47.12
And once everyone
makes their final choice,
00:24:47.15\00:24:49.32
people that choose
to believe a lie...
00:24:49.35\00:24:52.15
that choose to
believe in Rome's authority
00:24:52.19\00:24:54.89
and in the change of
the Sabbath into Sunday...
00:24:54.92\00:24:57.06
once they know the light
and the truth from the Bible...
00:24:57.09\00:24:59.96
if they choose
to go along with it,
00:25:00.00\00:25:01.63
they get the Mark
in their foreheads.
00:25:01.66\00:25:03.23
Those that know it's not right,
they don't believe in force,
00:25:03.26\00:25:06.57
they don't believe this was
really something that's from God
00:25:06.60\00:25:09.87
but they choose to
do it anyway because...
00:25:09.90\00:25:11.44
"Hey, they've got to...
00:25:11.47\00:25:12.81
they've got to feed
their families... you know...
00:25:12.84\00:25:14.18
they can't buy or sell" unless
they go along with the Mark...
00:25:14.21\00:25:16.34
they're going to get
the Mark in their hands.
00:25:16.38\00:25:18.88
But God's going to
have a people who do say,
00:25:18.91\00:25:21.32
"No way, you're not
putting the Mark in my forehead
00:25:21.35\00:25:23.72
or in my hand... I'm
going to follow Jesus,
00:25:23.75\00:25:25.55
I'm going to follow the Bible,
I'm going to follow truth,
00:25:25.59\00:25:27.92
I'm going to follow
the Ten Commandments...
00:25:27.96\00:25:29.29
no matter what... "
00:25:29.32\00:25:30.66
and then the doors
of heaven will close
00:25:30.69\00:25:32.93
and the plagues will fall
00:25:32.96\00:25:34.86
on those that get
the Mark of the Beast,
00:25:34.90\00:25:36.77
those that don't... God
will protect all the way through
00:25:36.80\00:25:40.04
to the day... the great day
when Jesus Christ comes again
00:25:40.10\00:25:43.30
and that will be our
next... our next meeting...
00:25:43.34\00:25:45.91
it's on: Armageddon and
the seven last plagues...
00:25:45.94\00:25:48.48
don't miss it.
00:25:48.51\00:25:49.84
During the Civil War... a
long time ago in the 1860s...
00:25:49.88\00:25:53.38
somebody asked
Abraham Lincoln and he said,
00:25:53.42\00:25:55.48
"Mr. Lincoln, do you
believe that God is on our side
00:25:55.52\00:25:58.09
in this crisis over slavery?"
00:25:58.12\00:25:59.89
And Abraham Lincoln is
said to have responded,
00:25:59.92\00:26:02.22
he said, "I'm not so concerned
00:26:02.26\00:26:04.06
whether God is
on our side or not,
00:26:04.13\00:26:05.86
my biggest concern
is, are we on His side?"
00:26:05.89\00:26:09.60
And that's
God's concern as well,
00:26:09.63\00:26:12.67
Are you on His
side? Am I on His side?
00:26:12.70\00:26:14.70
What are we going to do?
00:26:14.74\00:26:16.07
Again, the Bible says, not
the voice of Steve Wohlberg,
00:26:16.10\00:26:19.31
it's not from one
particular church,
00:26:19.34\00:26:22.31
it's God's Word...
Revelation 14:12...
00:26:22.34\00:26:25.18
"Here is the
patience of the saints:
00:26:25.21\00:26:27.95
here are they that keep
the commandments of God,
00:26:27.98\00:26:32.12
and the faith of Jesus. "
00:26:32.15\00:26:34.39
May God help us to
be among this people.

Believe it or not,
Bible prophecy predicts
00:27:38.85\00:27:41.76
that Sunday observance

the Mark of the Beast,
