That Roman Babylon, which has changes time and laws, worships May and idols.  Its pope claims to be
               God on earth and the church has fallen from God’s grace into satanic worship.  The church urges people
               to leave Catholicism and her apostate sister, Protestantism, and join their little remnant.  They teach
               that Adventism is the only safe haven for the people of God.

               Angel Three – Sunday Sabbath 666


               The SDA church teaches that Catholics and Protestants alike will join with the
               anti-christ and receive his mark and thus forfeit the seal of the living God.
               “When this issue is clearly brought before the world, those who reject God’s
               memorial of creatorship – the Bible Sabbath – choosing to worship and honor
               Sunday in the full knowledge that it is not God’s appointed day of worship,
               will receive the mark of the beast” (Seventh-day Adventists Believe, p. 167)


                                   Should Christians Keep the Sabbath?























               SDA position on Keeping the Law


               Each person baptized as a SDA receives a "Certificate of Profession of Faith". Each person being baptized
               must sign a thirteen-point statement entitled "My Commitment". As we read the first five points, the
               document appears perfectly, fundamentally Christian.

               However, by point six, we find the deviations beginning. Point six reads, "I accept the Ten
               Commandments as still binding upon Christians, and it is my purpose by the power of the indwelling
               Christ, to keep this law, including the fourth commandment, which requires the observance of the
               seventh day of the week as the Sabbath of the Lord." Point eight has the convert believing, "that the gift
               of prophecy is one of the identifying marks of the remnant church". Point thirteen identifies the
               Seventh-Day Adventist Church as the "remnant church of Bible Prophecy."
