Do you ever tell them “What if the Sunday Law is never passed in my lifetime?” ? What do they say to that?Ellen White, the Adventist prophetess, warned that at the end times, the United States would lead in establishing and enforcing a law that would criminalize worshiping on any other day, forcing Adventists, Seventh-day Baptists and any other sabbatarians to work on Saturday and observe Sunday as a day of rest. The penalty for worshiping on another day or refusing to worship on Sunday would be death. They also teach that anyone worshiping on Sunday, especially at this time, takes the mark of the beast. Some adventists say that Sunday only becomes the mark of the beast at the end times, some say it applies to anyone that at one time accepted their sabbath teaching and has returned to a Sunday church.
When I was young, my (Adventist) cousins used to tell scary stories to each other at family gatherings about how Catholics stored guns and other weapons, waiting for the order to go out and kill the sabbath keepers. (This is NOT official Adventist doctrine, but I know of others who were told the same stories and I personally experienced them myself).
I still get this from my family. Though most have ‘given up’ on me ever being Adventist again, it seems I can’t get through a family party or reunion without “Well, you know the truth, you’ll do the right thing when the Sunday Law is passed.”
grrrrrrrrrrrrr…
I’m usually polite and change the topic, but one of these days I just might mention my gun cabinet… JOKE.
we don’t have any guns. In my household we don’t even kill bugs, but thats another story.
