"And I beheld another beast coming up out of the
earth, and he had two horns like a lamb [the United States with its lamblike democratic
freedoms for all], and he spake [legislated a National Sunday Law,
with attending penalties and religious persecutions] like a dragon." Rev.
13:11.
A National Sunday Law in the United States of America is important to
Gods people and is a signal or sign to Gods people because it begins
a chain of events in the final crisis as follows:
The National Sunday Law Initiates A Chain of Events
It is the formation of "the image to the beast" of Rev.
13:12-16.
It initiates the Sabbath-Sunday controversy which is the final
or "great test."
It brings mankind to decisions to receive the "Seal of God"
or the "mark of the beast."
It brings the living, (not the dead) to test and into the Judgment
of the Living.
It will amplify the Third Angels Warning Message.
It will initiate the beginning of the "Loud Cry."
It is the first signal that Gods people have entered the final
crisis.
The National Sunday Law in the USA, is also important because it is the
signal for Gods people to leave the large cities.
"As the seige of Jerusalem by the Roman armies was the signal
for flight to Judean Christians, so the assumption of power on the part of our
nation [the United States of America] is the DECREE enforcing the papal
sabbath [Sunday worship] will be a warning to us. It will then be time to leave
the large cities, preparatory to leaving the smaller ones for retired homes among
the mountains."

The National Sunday law in the USAs is also a warning of impending terrible trouble.
