hello friends I'm Tim Saxton with white horse media and I'm here today with our
ministry director pastor Steve Wohlberg to talk about Bible prophecy there's
many things happening in the world around us today it seems that the world
is getting more challenging by the day and one of those challenges pastor Steve
is we hear a lot of buzz about climate change today and that people are
expecting disasters of epic proportions to happen in our world unless something
is done is there any connection between climate change and Bible prophecy attend
this is a big subject a lot of people are concerned about this whole issue and
you've probably seen television clips of protests in different cities around the
world where there's a massive movement right now to basically put the pressure
on rulers and legislators politicians to get them to do something now because the
idea is that the way we're polluting the environment and all the carbon emissions
that are going up these are affecting the weather and they're contributing to
massive disasters like hurricanes storms fires droughts floods rising sea levels
melting ice caps or you know melting like ice caps and then the rising sea
levels and they just people are looking at all of this and many scientists are
looking at this and they're saying that disaster is on the horizon if we don't
cut the emissions and go green and really focus on our common home on the
planet so we see a grassroots movement to pressure government leaders to do
something right now what is what is some of the solutions
that they're looking at well yeah the solutions that they're looking at is is
legislation that deals with shifting away from carbon usage
you know fossil fuels and moving more toward
solar wind and more natural means of generating power from a prophetic
perspective which is what you asked about we are looking at this from kind
of a different angle we're seeing a movement in favor of the environment to
pressure rulers to act now and what's really interesting Tim is that a large
percentage of this movement is being influenced by Pope Francis and his
encyclical that came out in 2015 June 18 2015
dealing with our common home and the environment and what is also significant
is an inside that encyclical as he makes all these recommendations for basically
in the planet to help us survive the environmental crisis he basically
suggests I think it's section 237 that keeping Sunday would be beneficial for
our relationships with God with our families with ourselves
finding rest in and with the planet and for those of us that have been looking
at this you know from a prophetic perspective we were concerned that the
movement to pressure and governments to act underneath this movement is a large
percentage of it is the papal encyclical and within the papal encyclical is the
keeping of Sunday and so we believe that at some point there's going to be a
shift where the movement can easily go in the direction of pressuring rulers
and legislators to keep Sunday which we we read about in the book the great
controversy and the book great controversy ties this in with a popular
movement and making demands on on our government and they it great controversy
ties it in to calamities and disasters and that's what the climate change
movement is doing it's saying that because of all of this use of fossil
fuels we are creating these disasters and the
great controversy says that the disasters are going to influence a
popular movement to pressure register legislators to enforce Senate so as far
as the science of climate change you know there are there those who are Pro
fossil fuels that this is really contributing to these problems and there
are others that say no and this is really not what's actually happening but
what we do know is that disasters are on the rise and we do know that there is a
movement to pressure rulers and legislators to act now and to make laws
we do know that the Pope's encyclical is heavily influencing this movement and we
do know that inside the encyclical is a strong appeal from Pope Francis for
everybody to keep Sunday and we also know that there are many that are
pushing for keeping Sunday and tying it in with the benefits to the planet you
know they say that if if all the stores were closed on Sunday think of how much
less carbon emissions would go up into the environment and that would then
lessen these weather-related catastrophes and disasters and so you
know we're looking at the writing on the wall and where we're seeing where is
this movement heading and from a prophetic standpoint it seems to me Tim
that the the dots are being connected and the movement is in place that can
very easily shift years toward enforcing Sunday for the benefit of the planet in
a time of crisis which is what's happening all around us so then what if
governments did pass legislation for Sunday closing what is the significance
of that in Bible prophecy well when you study revelation 14 very carefully and
you have to we know we have to have a whole Bible study on this to demonstrate
this but Revelation 14 is a very clear that at some point there will be a mark
the mark of the beast it'll be enforced upon everybody Revelation 13 talks about
the same thing that the day is going to come when nobody can fire sound unless
he has the mark and for those of us that have studied around Revelation 14
carefully and the three angels messages and the the emphasis on worshiping the
creator and keeping the commandments and not getting the mark and not following
the Beast when you look at the Ten Commandments
the only commandment about the Creator is the Sabbath and the issues of the
Sabbath versus Sunday are heating up and we believe that the Roman Catholic
Church historically has been a major player in the shift from the biblical
seventh-day Sabbath in the Bible to the first day of the week which is Sunday
and prophecy predicts that the Roman Church which the Bible refers to as the
Beast is eventually going to enforce the mark
revelation 13 talks about two beasts working together to do this and that as
the mark is enforced people will then be finally confronted by the holy spirit
with a message that will clarify into their minds that the real issue is the
ten commandments and the seventh-day Sabbath and then ultimately it's it's
the cross because when you really study the New Testament Jesus is more than
just a man he's our maker who became a man and gave His life on the cross and
the Sabbath really is is his day it's his day to honor him and to understand
that he's our maker and to rest in his his creative power and so eventually
everybody's gonna have to make a choice they want to follow the Beast or the
Creator they want to keep Sunday or do they want to keep the Sabbath and it's
very possible that the climate change movement will pick up steam as
disastrous increased increase and it will shift gears exactly as great
controversy predicts and as the Bible predicts that it will shift gears into a
movement to enforce Sunday as part of a last
effort to help the planet survive and that will bring the issue to the head to
a head and we believe that God is going to do that he's going to allow the issue
to come to a head so we can speak one last time and impress human beings that
they need to turn back to him and come back to his law including his Sabbath
and accept Jesus Christ as the maker of heaven and earth and choose to follow
him so these are some of the issues that are looming and we think the climate
change movement is part of part of the prophetic scenario that is showing us
that the writing's on the wall well well Steve then if some of our
listeners may never have understood there was something prophetic about the
Sabbath before and the day of worship where can they get more information
about this and where can they find out more about these two beasts in
Revelation 13 that enforce the mark at the end of time where can they go for
some resources right they can come to whitehorse media we've got a whole host
