# #217 Creation s MEMORIAL 1) What did God do in the beginning (Genesis 1:1)? The devil especially hates God s creative power. The devil has no creative ability and cannot make anything by his word. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that the devil launches a special attack on God s Creatorship. 2) What is God s memorial of Creation (Exodus 20:8-11)? (00:03:15) 3) In what sequence did God create everything, as explained in Genesis 1? Day 1: Day 4: Day 2: Day 5: Day 3: Day 6: 3
4) What special origin do we have as humans, and what are our special tasks (Genesis 1:26-28)? 5) After everything was created, what did God choose to do (Genesis 2:2)?

Many people read Revelation, but we must also hear from God in order to understand the book, and obey. 6) What did God do to the Sabbath (Genesis 2:3)? 7) If God is all-powerful, why did he choose to rest on the Sabbath? (00:07:37) 8) Who was the Sabbath made for (Mark 2:27)? 4 TOTAL ONSLAUGHT STUDY GUIDE DVD #217

Consider these quotes from Roman sources regarding the change from Saturday to Sunday: # 217 Cardinal James Gibbons, The Faith of Our Fathers (Ayers Publishing, 1978): 108: But you may read the Bible from Genesis to Revelation, and you will not find a single line authorizing the sanctification of Sunday. The Scriptures enforce the religious observance of Saturday, a day which we never sanctify. The holy day, the Sabbath, was changed from Saturday to Sunday, The Day of the Lord (dies Dominica) was chosen, not from any directions noted in the Scriptures, but from the Church s sense of its own power. 9
The Convert s Catechism of Catholic Doctrine (1957): 50: Q. Which is the Sabbath day? A. Saturday is the Sabbath day. Q. Why Do we observe Sunday instead of Saturday? A. We observe Sunday instead of Saturday because the Catholic Church transferred the solemnity from Saturday to Sunday. The Catholic Mirror (September 23, 1893): The Catholic Church, for over one thousand years before the existence of a Protestant, by virtue of her divine mission, changed the day from Saturday to Sunday... The Adventists are the only body of Christians with the Bible as their teacher, who can find no warrant in its pages for the change of day from the seventh to the first. Hence their appellation, Seventh-day Adventists. 21) Daniel 7:25 tells us that the little horn power the Antichrist would think to change times and laws. So what do the above quotes confirm about the Antichrist s identity? (00:41:24) 22) What is the Antichrist s sign, or mark of authority?...tradition stood above Scripture. The authority of the church could therefore not be bound to the authority of the Scriptures, because the church had changed circumcision into baptism, Sabbath into Sunday, not by the command of Christ, but by its own authority (Heinrich Julius Holtzmann, Kanon und Tradition, Ludwigsburg: Druck and Verlag von Ferd. Riehm, 1859: 263). 10 TOTAL ONSLAUGHT STUDY GUIDE DVD #217
23) Sunday worship was instituted by the Catholic Church and is based on tradition, not Scripture. What did Jesus think of such traditions (Matthew 15:3, 6-9?)? # 217 But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also the commandment of God by your tradition? Thus have ye made the commandment of God by your tradition. Ye, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying, This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me. But in they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments. My DECISION For Jesus Sunday worship strikes at the very root of God s authority. Will you choose to honor God by keeping His Sabbath holy? Whose mark will you choose to accept? 11
