Hi
Major TV Network Admits that Sunday Worship is Rooted in Ancient Roman Paganism and Saturday Is the True Biblical Sabbath
Occasionally, the secular media—often dismissive of the Holy Scriptures—ends up proclaiming truth more boldly than today’s churches. As Jesus declared, “If these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out” (Luke 19:40). In a rare moment of truth and honest journalism, a major television network recently aired a report openly acknowledging what many pastors and religious leaders refuse to admit: Sunday worship is not rooted in the Bible but in pagan Rome’s veneration of the sun—Dies Solis, the “Day of the Sun.”
TeleVen, a contraction of the words ‘Television Venezuela,’ is a national television network headquartered in Caracas, Venezuela. Its programming includes talk shows, news, daytime drama, and lifestyle and variety programming.
On April 6, 2025, TeleVen published an article titled “Do You Know Why Sunday is a Day of Rest? and explained how Sunday replaced Saturday as the day of rest and worship:
• “Sunday is usually considered a day of rest, however, this was not always the case; in fact, it was originally considered the first day of the week. So why did it become a day to relax? Here’s the scoop.” [1]
• “According to biblical writings, we are to observe rest on the seventh day of the week, just as God did after creating the world. However, in ancient times, Saturday, the Sabbath, was considered the seventh day, not Sunday.” [1]
• “Despite this, in Ancient Rome, Sunday was especially beloved, called ‘Dies Solis’—Day of the Sun. On this day, devotees dedicated themselves to worshiping the pagan deity known as Sol Invictus. Later, the Roman Emperor Constantine the Great united the two traditions during his reign, and then Julius Caesar decreed the aforementioned Dies Solis as a mandatory civil holiday.” [1]
• “This change was endorsed a thousand years later by the Catholic Church. ‘It pleases the Church of God that the religious celebration of the Sabbath day should be transferred to the Lord’s day – Sunday,’ they announced at the Council of Trent.” [1]
• “For this reason, in almost all countries with Christian roots, manual labor, commerce, and dancing were prohibited on Sundays.” [1]
This public confession, coming not from theologians but from the secular media, tears the veil off this unbiblical Sunday worship tradition. While the churches continue to lull their members into a false security, the stones are crying out against this centuries-old deception. This should lead every sincere believer to deep reflection. How long will we cling to customs rooted in apostasy while silencing the call to return to the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus?Sources

Please explain Col 2:16,17a “Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: 17 Which are a shadow of things to come; Here Paul states one isn’t to judge another of the “sabbath days.” What are you doing, if not judging others every time you speak on this topic?
Paul further states in Rom 14:5-6 One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind. 6 He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. Basically Paul is stating it doesn’t matter what day one “esteems” to be “higher”, it’s that day one “esteems” that’s for the “Lord.”
Who do I listen to, G-d or Paul? If I listen to the words of G-d, then Paul is a liar; if I accept Paul’s words as truth, then G-d is the liar. Is G-d speaking truth or is Paul?
Paul is speaking of the ceremonial’s sabbaths not the weekly’s Sabbath wich is for eternity.
Si Paul is right, not DT
When I read this section there is NOTHING said about the sabbaths being “ceremonial law”; the mind of man made that up, unless you can provide me a passage that confirms what you claim. AND can you explain what a “ceremonial sabbath” is?
The second passage quoted gives zero implication Paul is speaking of a “ceremonial sabbath”; he is speaking of a single day one holds higher than the rest (what else could he be referring if it isn’t the Sabbath?), AND he says let it be up to the individual to determine it. If you hold the words of Paul in high regard, you believe a liar. Set yourself free from the chains of christianity and turn back to Hashem!
I actually thought you where going to come back and say Paul was speaking to the gentile people of Colossae and they wouldn’t be under the Jewish law. Then again, that would create a problem with your religion and christianity in general.
G-d is waiting for you with open arms to turn away from idolatry and back to HIM.
The Tongues-Speaking Counterfeit Revival Invades the White House, Declaring that America’s Return to God is Unstoppable
The Tongues-Speaking Counterfeit Revival Invades the White House, Declaring that America’s Return to God is Unstoppable
June 25, 2025 by Andy Roman 1 Comment“Fearful sights of a supernatural character will soon be revealed in the heavens, in token of the power of miracle-working demons” (Great Controversy, p. 624).
On June 23, 2025, Mediaite, a left-leaning news outlet, reported that members of Donald Trump’s Faith Office were speaking in tongues on the grounds of the White House. The practice of speaking in tongues—often marked by altered states of consciousness and bypassed cognitive function—is widely associated with charismatic circles, not with government institutions. This event, caught on video following a religious gathering hosted by the Faith Office, raises serious concerns. To see such a display taking place at the very seat of American political power is not just inappropriate—they were conjuring up demons to help them take over the White House and the rest of America. The incident isn’t about worship—it’s about the dangerous mingling of mysticism and state power, setting the stage for a false revival described in prophecy:“For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.” Revelation 16:14.
The so-called “speaking in tongues” witnessed on the White House grounds is not a divine manifestation—it’s gibberish born from altered states of consciousness, where normal thought patterns and behaviors are suspended. This is not the biblical gift of languages given for the proclamation of the gospel but a troubling display of paranormal activity infiltrating the very heart of our nation’s political leadership. To see such ecstatic, ungoverned outbursts taking place where laws are made and national direction is determined should alarm every thinking citizen. Though cloaked in the language of worship, this spectacle is a dangerous counterfeit—substituting frenzy for faith, emotion for truth, and chaos for conviction. It signals a shift from reasoned governance to spiritual confusion, with prophetic implications far deeper than most realize.
The gift of tongues was never about unintelligible utterances or emotional outbursts—it was the divine ability to speak in actual human languages previously unknown to the speaker, not the hearers, so that the gospel could be communicated across linguistic barriers. This is clearly demonstrated in Acts 2, when the Holy Spirit descended on the apostles at Pentecost, and they began to speak in the native tongues of the people gathered from many nations. Each person heard the message “in their own language,” allowing the good news of Jesus Christ to spread rapidly and effectively.
The speaking in tongues took place as a female pastor led out in the following prayer:
• “PASTOR: We just thank you right now Lord, from the east, the west, the north, and the south, you will shake America with your power and your glory. We cancel every assignment of the enemy.” [1]
• “ATTENDEE: (SPEAKS IN TONGUES).” [1]
• “PASTOR: This nation was birthed to be one nation under God and we are standing on the soil of the White House. And we are declaring your word every place that our foot will trod you will give it to us and we’re taking the land.” [1]
• “ATTENDEE: JESUS!” [1]
• “PASTOR: We thank you oh Lord you have brought us to the kingdom for our times of this – and this is the time. And so we declare right now from the capital of our nation that America will come back to God. We will come to God! Nothing will stop this nation! And we speak right now by the authority of heaven! You told us to bring heaven to earth Heaven is being released through your people right now. We thank you for the unity of this body that we have right now that there is strength in unity. Just like the 120 in the upper rooms when we were gathered together the Holy Spirit fell. We thank You that we are gathered now in this century and this time for a purpose. We pray protection over President Trump. We pray legions of angels guiding and protecting him. We thank you every time he gets in an airplane that there will never ever be any attack on his life! He will live out his days for what you have written for him. And he will be a leader that this world will never forget because he will remember for turning America back to God!” [1]
• “PASTOR: “We thank and praise you today. We declare Jehovah Sebeah, that God arise and his enemies be scattered, that them that hate him flee before him! And it is time, and we are declaring today, that no stronghold, it doesn’t matter what it is, it cannot face the power of our Almighty God. Because it’s at the name of Jesus, every knee shall bow and every tongue shall declare that you and you alone are Lord. So we declare today again we will see a manifestation of your power and your glory and you are about to do something that is unprecedented so we thank you and praise you and we glorify you. In Jesus name. Hallelujah.” [1]
The good news is that when the false revival sweeps through the land, God will also unleash His final work with divine power. This outpouring will not be marked by chaos or theatrics, but by a Spirit-led transformation that empowers God’s people to give the final warning. The Three Angels’ Messages will go forth with boldness, and the Loud Cry will swell—not for show, but for mission.
We’ve been warned that the counterfeit always comes first as Satan attempts to mimic the moving of the Spirit. But this deception is merely a signal that heaven’s true outpouring is near. As the enemy stirs up emotionalism and spiritual confusion, God is preparing to pour out the Latter Rain upon His faithful remnant. While false fire burns in Babylon, the true fire of the Holy Spirit will ignite among those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.
“Before the final visitation of God’s judgments upon the earth, there will be, among the people of the Lord, such a revival of primitive godliness as has not been witnessed since apostolic times. The Spirit and power of God will be poured out upon his children. At that time many will separate themselves from those churches in which the love of this world has supplanted love for God and his Word. Many, both of ministers and people, will gladly accept those great truths which God has caused to be proclaimed at this time, to prepare a people for the Lord’s second coming. The enemy of souls desires to hinder this work; and before the time for such a movement shall come, he will endeavor to prevent it, by introducing a counterfeit” (Great Controversy, p. 464).

I see Andy Roman is at it again pushing none issues. You criticize people because they worship on Sunday, even though Paul said it’s up to the individual to determine which day is more important to dedicate to the Lord. Now you begin criticizing those who speak in “tongues”?!?!? How do you know those who where at the White House weren’t sincere in there worship? Didn’t the disciples in the upper room when the spirit descended upon them speak in “tongues”? Doesn’t Paul brag about speaking in “tongues” more often then those in Corinth? Doesn’t Paul also call it one of the “gifts” of the spirit? Even the Jesus says (Mark 16:17) speaking in “new tongues” is a sign that accompanies those who “believe.”
It’s starting to sound like you believe your religion is the superior faith and all others are beneath you. I’ve already pointed out some glaring issues with your religion and one of the biggest is the elevation of the woman Ellen White and you were offended; don’t you think your words have the same effect on others as mine did on you when you criticize them? Why not try posting something edifying…build people up verses tearing them down all the time because they don’t meet the expectations derived from your religion.
The words of Ellen White; you have a scriptural passage that confirms her words or are you just quoting your secondary “divine book”?
“Before the final visitation of God’s judgments upon the earth, there will be, among the people of the Lord, such a revival of primitive godliness as has not been witnessed since apostolic times. The Spirit and power of God will be poured out upon his children. At that time many will separate themselves from those churches in which the love of this world has supplanted love for God and his Word. Many, both of ministers and people, will gladly accept those great truths which God has caused to be proclaimed at this time, to prepare a people for the Lord’s second coming.

Sunday Law at the Gates: Jonathan Berry’s Nomination Heads to a Final Vote in the Full Senate
Jonathan Berry, known as “Mr. Sunday Law” for his public advocacy of bringing back Blue laws, has officially advanced one step closer to becoming the next Solicitor of the U.S. Department of Labor. On June 26, 2025, the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP) Committee voted to move his nomination forward, clearing the way for a full hearing and vote in the Senate chamber. If confirmed, Berry would serve as the top legal officer in the Department of Labor, giving him significant influence over labor policy, workplace regulations, and religious accommodations. His nomination is raising eyebrows among those concerned about the growing entanglement of church and state, particularly in the context of labor reform and Sunday rest advocacy.
The US Senate Newsroom published the following on June 26, 2025:
• “Today, the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee voted to advance eight of President Trump’s nominees at the Department of Education, the Department of Labor, and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.” [1]
• “All nominations will now move to the Senate floor for a final vote at a later date. The approved nominations include:” [1]
• “Penny Schwinn to serve as Deputy Secretary of Education, Department of Education” [1]
• “Kimberly Richey to serve as Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights, Department of Education” [1]
• “Daniel Aronowitz to serve as Assistant Secretary of Labor for the Employee Benefits Security Administration, Department of Labor” [1]
• “David Keeling to serve as Assistant Secretary of Labor for the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, Department of Labor” [1]
• “Jonathan Berry to serve as Solicitor, Department of Labor” [1]
• “Andrew Rogers to serve as Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division, Department of Labor” [1]
• “Andrea Lucas to serve as a Member, Equal Employment Opportunity Commission” [1]
• “Jeremiah Workman to serve as Assistant Secretary of Labor for Veterans’ Employment and Training, Department of Labor” [1]
We are witnessing a dangerous and deliberate shift as politicians and political appointees are no longer concealing their intent to use government as a tool to resurrect and restore Christianity in America. When civil power is hijacked to enforce religious doctrines, the line between church and state is not just crossed—it’s obliterated. This is not merely a misguided political movement; it is the fulfillment of Revelation’s warning about a false revival that will use state authority to enforce worship, leading to the formation of the image of the beast (Revelation 13:13–14).As lawmakers desperately attempt to “save” society, we will see an increasing push for religious legislation: Ten Commandments displayed on government property, Bible reading and prayer mandated in public schools, and the revival of Sunday as the state-endorsed day of worship. While they may appear as acts of patriotism and morality, they actually mark the start of a prophetic crisis and religious tyranny.
“When Protestantism shall stretch her hand across the gulf to grasp the hand of the Roman power, when she shall reach over the abyss to clasp hands with spiritualism, when, under the influence of this threefold union, our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government, and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near” (Testimonies, Vol. 5, p. 451).

Sunday Law at the Gates: Jonathan Berry’s Nomination Heads to a Final Vote in the Full Senate
This latest article you posted never explains why Jonathon Berry is a bad nomination; just he is “Mr. Sunday.” Explain why the only one who call Berry “Mr. Sunday” are the Adventists. It would seem the Adventist organization created this nickname for him and are falsely disparaging the man, how sad and what a fine example of loving one’s neighbor.
My guess is you haven’t read a single word of the Project 2025; I would suggest you take some time to read chapter 18 of Project 2025 (written entirely by Berry) and tell me exactly how Berry is a bad choice for the Labor Department. His recommendations are to enact Pro-life measures in the workforce (keeping anti-life benefits -abortions- out of health benefit programs), provide robust protections for religious employers, paying employees time and half when they work on their religious sabbath, expand apprenticeship programs or on the job training for those entering the workforce, limiting the power of unions, limiting certain visas that take jobs away from American workers, and the list goes on of the positive he suggests happen. I’m read nothing in what Berry writes ever stating he wants to establish a federal day of worship/rest, that is entirely made up by your religion trying to make current events fit a narrative created by your religions goddess, Ellen White.
Either you are to young to remember OR you live in a foreign country and are completely unaware of the lifestyle of the United States prior to the 1970’s. Did you know virtually ALL businesses where closed on Sunday? Even today there are businesses that are closed on Sunday OR operate with reduced hours so people aren’t working seven days a week. Berry isn’t creating or bring back “blue laws”, they’re already on the books today; maybe not to the degree they once where, but there are some still active today.
You really need to start looking into what your “faith” keeps telling you is truth, because everything you’ve posted is easily proven false. Every time you post these types articles I will comment on them to set the records straight.
You’re welcome!
Hi
DO NOT DOUBT
We know […] that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose. (Romans 8:28)
When trials come, remember that they are sent for your good. […] When trials and tribulations come to you, they are sent so that you may receive from the God of glory renewed strength and greater humility, so that he may bless, sustain, and protect you. In faith and with the hope that “does not put to shame,” let us cling to God’s promises.
Oh! how good the Lord is to all and how safely we can trust in him. He calls us his little children. So let us come to him as to a loving Father. He desires the radiant rays of his righteousness to shine on our faces, in our words, and in our actions. If we love one another as Christ loved us, the barriers that separate us from God and our fellow human beings will disappear, and all obstacles that prevent the Holy Spirit from pouring out from heart to heart will be removed. […] Trust in God with all your soul, and He will take care of you and your burdens.
The Lord desires that His people be happy; He brings forth before us, one after another, sources of consolation, so that we may be filled with joy and peace in the face of present difficulties. Let us not wait until we are in heaven to know joy and consolation! Let us enjoy these gifts even here below. […] We are deprived of great privileges because we do not seize the blessings that flow from our misfortunes. All our sufferings and sorrows, all our temptations and trials, all our persecutions and miseries—in a word, all things work together for our good. Let us learn to see the light shining behind the clouds.
Our happiness comes not from our surroundings but from our inner selves;
it does not flow from what we have, but from what we are.
(E. G. White – With God Daily)

Pope Leo XIV Tells UN Summit that AI Systems Must Promote the Common Good, Build Bridges of Dialogue, and Foster Fraternity
Pope Leo XIV Tells UN Summit that AI Systems Must Promote the Common Good, Build Bridges of Dialogue, and Foster Fraternity
July 15, 2025 by Andy Roman 1 CommentIn a message delivered to the United Nations’ AI for Good Summit in Geneva, Pope Leo XIV, through Cardinal Secretary of State Pietro Parolin, called on nations to develop regulatory frameworks for artificial intelligence that prioritize the “common good,” which is the idea that the church’s moral theology is necessary for a just society. The Pope’s appeal reflects the Vatican’s growing involvement in global conversations about technology and highlights its desire to influence the direction of AI policy on the international stage.
Vatican News published the following on July 10, 2025:
• “Pope Leo XIV encouraged nations to establish frameworks and regulations on AI so that it can be developed and used according to the common good, in a message sent on July 10 to the participants of the AI for Good Summit, taking place in Geneva, Switzerland, from July 8 to 11.” [1]
• “The summit is organized by the United Nations’ International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and is co-hosted by the Swiss government. The event sees the participation of governments, tech leaders, academics and others who are interested and work with AI.” [1]
• “The development of this technology ‘must go hand in hand with respect for human and social values, the capacity to judge with a clear conscience, and growth in human responsibility.’ It requires ‘discernment to ensure that AI is developed and utilized for the common good, building bridges of dialogue and fostering fraternity,’ the Pope urged. AI needs to serve ‘the interests of humanity as a whole‘.” [1]
Programming artificial intelligence to align with Catholic social teachings is essentially using this technology to advance the doctrines of the church. AI should remain neutral and serve people of all faiths—or none at all. Embedding Catholic teachings into AI systems elevates a single religion—Rome—above all others. This amounts to weaponizing technology to push the Vatican’s agenda into government, education, corporations, and the general public.Rome has long held ambitions of reestablishing its lost supremacy, and these efforts to influence the development of artificial intelligence represents a continuation of this agenda. By inserting its teachings—under the guise of promoting the “common good”—into the very heart of AI’s operational and regulatory frameworks, the Vatican is seeking to position itself to guide the future direction of a technology that will soon govern every aspect of human life, from communication, commerce, education, and governance to personal decision-making.
As AI becomes more integrated into the fabric of society, whoever can control these tools will have a lot of influence. If Rome succeeds in this effort, it won’t just shape global values—it will extend its reach into the daily lives of millions and billions of people, fulfilling its long-standing goal of guiding the conscience of the world.
“The Protestant world will learn what the purposes of Rome really are, only when it is too late to escape the snare. She is silently growing into power. Her doctrines are exerting their influence in legislative halls, in the churches, and in the hearts of men. She is piling up her lofty and massive structures, in the secret recesses of which her former persecutions will be repeated. Stealthily and unsuspectedly she is strengthening her forces to further her own ends when the time shall come for her to strike. All that she desires is vantage-ground, and this is already being given her. We shall soon see and shall feel what the purpose of the Roman element is. Whoever shall believe and obey the Word of God will thereby incur reproach and persecution” (Great Controversy, p. 581).

Where does your hate of the Catholic church come from; is it personal views or religious brainwashing? If it wasn’t for the Catholic church you wouldn’t have the faith you have today since all “christian” faith stem from it. Maybe you need to re-read your organizations “Official Statements” concerning Catholicism…click.
Let’s correct the falsehood of the copy/paste from the Advent Messenger concerning the pope speaking on AI.
NOWHERE in the pope’s address during this summit does he ever say or ever allude to what Andy Roman implies: to program “artificial intelligence to align with Catholic social teachings is essentially using this technology to advance the doctrines of the church.” I am stunned you posted this nonsense! Did you even read the article from the Vatican? The pope only spoke of ensuring however AI is programmed that it will be for the good of mankind NOT promote Catholicism. Roman did post a link to the Vatican for your verification, did you click it and read the article? If you had, you would have seen the lies Roman pushes.
This man is a fraud and isn’t relaying news, but opinions; and his opinions are on the “wrong side of heaven and the righteous side of Hell. (5FDP)” You really need to stop reading Roman’s nonsense; all he does is peddle lies, which are easily shown. AND, of course, he doesn’t end it with biblical proof, he ends it with a quote from your goddess, Ellen White.
You’re welcome!
Churches Across the Nation Join the “Back to Church Sunday” Campaign
The “Back to Church Sunday” campaign is a nationwide initiative aimed at boosting church attendance by rallying communities to gather together on Sunday, September 21, 2025. At its core, this campaign is more than just an effort to fill pews—it is a calculated push to unify churches around Sunday worship, which is increasingly being promoted as the central day for Christian identity and national unity. While this movement may appear harmless, it is ultimately incompatible with the teachings of the Holy Scriptures and with the final work that God is seeking to accomplish in these last days: a revival of His holy law and a restoration of Seventh-day Sabbath observance (Revelation 14:6-12).
The Back to Church Sunday campaign published the following:
• “Join thousands of churches across the country for Back to Church Sunday—the largest, single-day outreach event designed to help the local church reach unchurched people in their communities and invite them to get connected to the hope, care, love a church like yours can provide.” [1]
• “We are making this year’s Back To Church Sunday the largest ever by making it free and easy for every church to participate!” [1]
We must remain fully awake to the prophetic significance of a “National Back to Church Sunday” campaign. Revelation chapters 13 and 14 describe a coming crisis in which false worship is enforced and the Seventh-day Sabbath becomes the final test of loyalty to God. While this campaign is presented as non-political and non-denominational, it aligns well with the prophetic framework of the image of the beast—an alliance between church and state that ultimately compels the world to accept Sunday observance in place of God’s true day of rest. Although we have not yet reached that crisis, campaigns like this are helping to build momentum, shape public sentiment, and generate an interest in preparation for it.Our very identity as a people is rooted in the call to “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy” (Exodus 20:8), not to follow human tradition. The seventh-day Sabbath is not just a day of rest; it is a sign of loyalty to the Creator (Ezekiel 20:12, 20). It was sanctified at Creation, reaffirmed in the Ten Commandments, and upheld by Jesus and the apostles. The push to bring people back to Sunday worship stands in direct opposition to God’s final call to the world to turn away from the traditions of men and return to obedience to His commandments (Revelation 14:12).
“Sunday is a child of the papacy, exalted by the Christian world above the sacred day of God’s rest. In no case are God’s people to pay it homage” (Testimonies, Vol. 9, p. 235).

Churches Across the Nation Join the “Back to Church Sunday” Campaign
Your latest post from Roman on the “Back to Church Sunday” shows the man is completely out of touch with reality and has done little to no research on the condition of the modern church today. The reality is churches are desperate for people to fill their pews as the number of attenders has fallen dramatically. According to a Pew study in 1972 about 92% of Americans identified as christian and by 2020 the number has fallen to about 64%. That’s an almost a 30% drop in those who call themselves “christian.” They go on to predict, with the current trends of decline, those who identify as “christian” will drop below 50% by 2070. Pew Study
I went to the Back to Church website and randomly clicked the different churches on the map of those participating in the event and most are in small towns, meaning they are small churches, and with attendance dropping, they are desperate to fill those pews. For them it’s a matter of survival and remaining open verses being “a calculated push to unify churches around Sunday worship” as Roman has you believing.
Bringing this a little closer to home for you, how fast is your church growing or is it stagnate and on the verge of decreasing as the older members begin passing away? What is the program like to reach a younger generation or are you relying on the current young children within the church to maintain the numbers?
What you should be more concerned about are the number of mosques opening in France and the increase in the Muslim population your government is displacing you with.
I will continue to correct your inaccurate posts with facts and truth…your welcome.
The Rise of a Global Religious Sensation
On Tuesday, July 29, 2025, Pope Leo XIV rode into the Vatican to the sound of 120,000 youth screaming and singing along to the song “There Can Be Miracles When You Believe,” following an evening Mass that launched the Jubilee of Youth—a weeklong celebration for young Catholics. [1] St. Peter’s Square erupted with shouts, cheers, and chants as the crowd welcomed the pontiff. The scene portrayed the pope not as a humble spiritual leader but as a celebrity-like, messianic figure entering to thunderous praise—in a manner eerily reminiscent of Christ’s triumphal entry into Jerusalem—yet centered on a human figure rather than the Messiah Himself.
As the pope rode in, the crowd played and sang the following song—perhaps unaware of whom the words were truly attributing praise to:
I will sing to the Lord, for He has triumphed gloriously.
I will sing to the Lord, for He has triumphed gloriously.
Who is like You, oh Lord, among the celestials?
Who is like You, majestic in holiness?
In Your love, You lead the people You redeemed.
In Your love, You lead the people You redeemed.
I will sing, I will sing, I will sing.The song originates from the animated film The Prince of Egypt, which tells the story of Moses and the Exodus—highlighting the theme of a coming savior who delivers the people. In this Catholic context, especially with nearly 120,000 youth from diverse backgrounds, its use may be seen as reinforcing the Roman Catholic narrative of divine authority and miraculous power. It also serves to further the Vatican’s broader agenda of uniting the political and religious world under papal influence. The song continues with the words:
There can be miracles when you believe.
Though hope is frail, it’s hard to kill.
Who knows what miracles you can achieve?
When you believe, somehow you will.
You will when you believe.
The phrase “when you believe”—while hopeful—is vague. Believe in what? In whom? Without a clear reference to Jesus Christ or His word as the object of faith, this type of vague spirituality can open the door to universalism and a feel-good, watered-down version of religion that lacks any type of doctrinal clarity or biblical revelation. You really don’t know who the lyrics are being sung to, the Pope or Jesus.While many would view the scene as a unifying, powerful religious moment, it also raises serious concerns. It promotes a cult of personality. It fulfills the prophetic warnings of a single global religious order in the last days. It confuses biblical worship with emotional spectacle. It promotes a deceptive unity not grounded in Scripture.
The image of the pope being cheered by multitudes of youth, accompanied by miracle-themed music, serves as a powerful symbol of the growing global admiration for the Vatican as it seeks to expand its religious and political influence on the world stage. The Bible warns of a time when a false religious power would rise, performing signs and wonders, forging a counterfeit unity that leads the world into spiritual deception (Revelation 13:13–14; 2 Thessalonians 2:9–11).
This unity, though outwardly appealing and seemingly inspired by faith, is a carefully crafted delusion that prepares the way for final rebellion against God’s law (Revelation 12:17). Such an event should remind us that we are approaching the final crisis—just before the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.

Hi
THEIR JUST DUE
John Huss, Thomas Cranmer, William Tyndale, and many other Protestant Reformers suffered martyrdom at the hands of the Roman Catholic Church. Such hatred against God abounded that even the body of John Wycliffe, “the Morning Star of the Reformation,” was exhumed 43 years after his death and burned at the stake.
Countless Christians went to their death for the crime of believing in the gospel as it is proclaimed in the Bible and the Bible alone—that salvation comes solely through faith in the grace of Jesus Christ (Acts 4:12; Ephesians 2:8). They believed that it was the Son of God—not the Church, not the pope, nor any other man—who could give them life everlasting; and they were murdered for that belief and for sharing that belief with others.
The Bible foretells that the same persecution will befall God’s people in the last days—and by the same beast power too. We have already been warned “that the image of the beast should … cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed” (Revelation 13:15). Jesus, when prophesying of both the destruction of the literal city of Jerusalem by pagan Rome and the end-time universal coercion by papal Rome, declared, “Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake” (Matthew 24:9).
Some will die, boldly enduring in the faith. These are frightening thoughts. But for all who will fall in the last days, today’s verse is for you. These last plagues are evidence of the promise that God will “judge and avenge [the] blood [of the saints and prophets] on those who dwell on the earth” (Revelation 6:10).
The Gilbert and Sullivan opera The Mikado popularized the phrase, “Let the punishment fit the crime.” Indeed, as we learned, “he who kills with the sword must be killed with the sword” (13:10). This is not for man to do but for God alone, for it is God who is “the Just” (Acts 3:14). After probation has closed for the world, God will give these persecutors “their just due.”
O Father, may the coming judgment against sin move me to place all injustices done into Your trustworthy hands.

Hi
LET US BE ZEALOUS FOR DOING GOOD
[…] who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all lawlessness and purify for himself a people for his own possession, zealous for good works. (Titus 2:14)
Christ’s disciples were redeemed to serve. They must spend themselves for God and for their fellow men. Our Lord teaches that the true purpose of life is service. Christ himself was a worker, and he made work a law for all. He presented to the world a higher concept of life than had ever been offered before. A life devoted to serving our neighbor brings man into communion with Christ. The law of service is the link that connects us to God and to our fellow men.
Christ, like the master in the parable of the talents, entrusts his possessions to his servants, commanding them to use them for his service. To each one He assigns a task, for each one is called to collaborate with Him in the salvation of souls. Our field of activity here below is just as real as the place the Lord has gone to prepare for us in the heavenly courts. […]
Those who wish to be workers with God must seek to perfect all the faculties of their intelligence and to maintain their bodies in health. True education is the development of our physical, mental, and moral faculties with a view to fulfilling our duties, developing our bodies, and training our souls and spirits for the service of God. […]
The Lord demands of every believer growth in capacity and effectiveness in every respect. Christ has guaranteed us a wage; He gave His blood and His sufferings in exchange for our willing service. He came into the world to show us how and in what spirit we should work. He wants us to apply ourselves to seeking how we can best contribute to the advancement of His kingdom and the glory of His name; He expects us to aim to crown with honor the Father who “so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

Hi
If you have ever been to Arlington National Cemetery you have probably seen a sharp-looking sentinel guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Every detail performed by this honor guard is flawlessly executed and meaningful. During his march by the tomb, the guard takes 21 steps, turns 90 degrees to face the tomb, pauses 21 seconds, turns another 90 degrees to face back down the mat, and pauses 21 seconds.
These pauses allude to the 21-gun salute, the highest military honor. For a soldier to apply to guard the tomb, he must be in superb physical condition and between 5’10” and 6’4” tall. Less than 20 percent of the soldiers who try out for this duty are accepted for training, and only a fraction of them become guards. Off-duty time is spent training and memorizing the notable people resting in Arlington National Cemetery and where they are interred. Every guard spends up to five hours a day making sure his uniform is impeccable.
After serving for several months and passing a proficiency test and written test, the guard is given a Tomb Guard Badge that is worn on his uniform pocket. There have only been about 525 awarded, making it one of the least awarded Army badges, second only to the Astronaut Badge. Recipients are held to a high standard and must not do anything that brings dishonor upon the tomb. Only nine badges have been revoked.
The guards, which are changed every 30 minutes in summer and every hour in winter, have been patrolling the tomb 24 hours a day, 365 days a year continuously since April 6, 1948. They are so dedicated that their duty is performed in all types of weather. For them, guarding the tomb is not just an assignment—it is the highest honor that can be afforded to a serviceperson. Every year on Memorial Day, thousands of visitors to Arlington National Cemetery behold the awesome loyalty of these silent sentinels guarding the tomb.
Did you know the Bible teaches that God has a memorial to be remembered? The fourth commandment explains: “For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it” (Exodus 20:11). Each week we memorialize God’s creative power and honor Him as our Creator by keeping His Sabbath holy.

The Unholy Trinity, Part 1
Skeptics claim that demons aren’t real, but the Bible actually says otherwise. In the Scriptures are several accounts of these “unclean spirits.” See, for instance, Mark 1:23–27; 5:2–16; 9:17–27. The demons terrorizing these individuals inhabited their bodies, but the demons in today’s verse are slightly different.
They are specifically described as being “like frogs,” an image taken from the second plague of Egypt (Exodus 8:1–6). In that account, the pharaoh’s “magicians” were, like they were in the first plague, able to reproduce the frogs by “their enchantments” (v. 7). The Bible is warning us that the same power used by the Egyptian sorcerers will be used to beguile the world in the sixth plague.
While it may come in different forms and different names—witchcraft, the dark arts, the occult—it has not changed. It is Satan’s supernatural horde of demons. Satan has the same goal and the same target: He is making war against God and His people. At the very end of time, he will use his supernatural powers to call to arms every nation under the sun to train their crosshairs upon those with the seal of God.
Notice that these verses today are actually describing a resurgence of Revelation 13:13, 14. The demons are “performing signs” just like they did through the false prophet. In Revelation 13, these demonic miracles are used to convince the world to make the image of the beast; in Revelation 16, they are used to convince the world to go to “battle.”
And this time, they’re being sent forth with greater effort, not just by the false prophet but by an unholy trio of powers. In this counterfeit trinity is apostate Protestantism, symbolized by the false prophet, as well as Catholicism, symbolized by the beast, and also Satan, symbolized by the dragon. We’ll look further into this union tomorrow.
Almighty God, though Satan’s powers of darkness may be great, thank You that the everlasting power of Christ is greater still.

Hi
WHO IS MY NEIGHBOR?
But he […] said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?” (Luke 10:29
Among the Jews, the question: “Who is my neighbor?” was often the subject of endless discussion. They were not in doubt about pagans and Samaritans. They regarded the latter as foreigners. But how were they to distinguish between people of their own country and between the different classes of society? […] Christ answers this question with the parable of the Good Samaritan. He shows that our neighbor is not simply our co-religionist, and that we cannot recognize them by color, race, or social status. Our neighbor is anyone who needs our help, every soul who has been wounded and bruised by the enemy. In a word, our neighbor is anyone who is God’s property.
My neighbor is all souls in the throes of painful need. My neighbor is all the sons and daughters of Adam who have gone astray, deceived by the enemy of souls, chained by the slavery of bad habits, which destroy the strength of the beings created by the Eternal.
Our neighbor is not only our relatives and our particular friends; it is not simply those who belong to our church or who think like us. Our neighbor is the entire human family. We must do good to all men, and especially to those who are part of the religious family. We must give the world a demonstration of what it means to practice God’s law. Let us love God above all else and our neighbor as ourselves.
Today God gives men the opportunity to demonstrate whether they love their fellow men. He who truly loves God and his neighbor shows mercy to the unfortunate, the suffering, the wounded, the dying. The Savior invites each of us to redress our abandoned work and seek to restore the moral image of the Creator in humanity.
🙏
