What is Climate Change Sabbath?
The Climate Change Sabbath, also known as Green Sabbath or Climate Sunday is a movement that fights for the goal of a universal day of rest for mainly ecological reasons.
While on the surface it does not seem to have any religious affiliation or agenda, upon closer inspection and research we find that it does. But more on this later!
There is no doubt that many natural disasters that are taking place in this world!
These have always been and always will be! We live in a world of sin, in the land of the enemy! As much as we would like, Earth is not Heaven!
What is the purpose of the Green Sabbath?
They encourage people to do nothing one day per week, and simply let the Earth rest!
You know, a day without working, shopping, cooking, cleaning, building, etc.!
A day for us, for you, for me, when we can relax and forget about everything, and it will also benefit the environment as well!
Take a Break one day per week
Is there anything wrong with that? Nope. I do not see anything wrong with resting one day per week and stopping from the hustle and bustle of the week!
People are starting to realize that we all need a break from this hectic society we live in! Not only is it beneficial for us, but for the environment as well!
God already established one day of rest every seven days! It is called the Sabbath!
Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
Exodus 20:8-11 KJV
He knew when He created Adam and Eve, that a rest day is needed for fellowship with Him and our rest! Also, do not forget our origins!
And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.
Genesis 2:2-3 KJV
So, the solution is already there! It is called the Sabbath! And it starts every Friday sunset and ends on Saturday sunset! (Leviticus 23:32).
While some of these movements claim they do not have any religious interest, and they recommend taking any day of the week off, others are bolder for a specific day!
Climate Sunday Sabbath
Climate Sunday Movement though is formed of various church denominations that have the following goals:
- Ending fossil fuel development in the UK
- Compensation for Loss and Damage
- Ecological Conversion
Ecological Conversion? What is that all about?
I thought the Gospel message is to repent from our sins (Acts 3:19), and the mirror to check ourselves morally is the Ten Commandments found in Exodus 20:1-17.
Anyway, I will leave it there for now!
On the “Speak Up” section of the website it says:
You see, it starts to get interesting!
Churches mixing with the Government…you know what happened in the past!
It was called “The Dark Ages” for a reason!
And why Sunday? Will everyone in the near future on this Earth have to stop their activities on Sunday?
What about also worshipping on this day at their local Church?
For…environmental solutions?
By civil law? To “protect” the Earth?
What will happen to those who do not comply?
What if you want to follow the Word of God and rest and worship on Saturday, the seventh day of the week, the real Sabbath, and not the man-made Sabbath?
Do you see where all this is heading?
Laudato Si, Climate Crisis and the Solution
This movement could not be complete without the involvement of the Papacy!
Pope Francis, the leader of the Catholic Church, in his encyclical “Laudato Si”, page 172, section 237, says the following:
237.
On Sunday, our participation in the Eucharist has special importance. Sunday, like the Jewish Sabbath, is meant to be a day which heals our relationships with God, with ourselves, with others and with the world.
Sunday is the day of the Resurrection, the “first day” of the new creation, whose first fruits are the Lord’s risen humanity, the pledge of the final transfiguration of all created reality. It also proclaims “man’s eternal rest in God”.
Laudato Si Encyclical – Pope Francis
By the way, there is no such term as “Jewish Sabbath” in the Bible!
The Sabbath was made for man, meaning, for everyone, and not only for the Jewish people! (Mark 2:27)
Exaltation of Sunday, a normal working day, that has nothing to do with God or His commandments! (Mark 7:7)
Laudato Si and Climate Change
The Pope recognizes in his encyclical the climate change issue in section 25 and states:
“25. Climate change is a global problem with grave implications: environmental, social, economic, political and for the distribution of goods. It represents one of the principal challenges facing humanity in our day. Its worst impact will probably be felt by developing countries in coming decades.”
26. “There is an urgent need to develop policies so that, in the next few years, the emission of carbon dioxide and other highly polluting gases can be drastically reduced, for example, substituting for fossil fuels and developing sources of renewable energy.
Worldwide there is minimal access to clean and renewable energy. There is still a need to develop adequate storage technologies.”
Laudato Si Encyclical – Pope Francis
What is the Pope’s solution to Climate Change?
The Eucharist, celebrated on Sunday seems to be the solution!
In Laudato Si, sections 236-237, we find:
“Thus, the Eucharist is also a source of light and motivation for our concerns for the environment, directing us to be stewards of all creation.
On Sunday, our participation in the Eucharist has special importance. Sunday, like the Jewish Sabbath, is meant to be a day which heals our relationships with God, with ourselves, with others and with the world.”
Laudato Si Encyclical – Pope Francis
Also see “Who Changed the Sabbath Day to Sunday?”
Do you see the subtle suggestion here?
The solution for the environmental problems seems to be Sunday rest according to the Pope!
This entity, the Papacy has been identified by the majority of the Protestant world as the antichrist, the beast from the sea of Revelation, the little horn of Daniel, Babylon the Great – the Mother of Harlots, and the man of sin. (2 Thessalonians 2:3-4)
According to the Bible, history will repeat itself! (Revelation 13:12-18)
Prophecy tells us that the Papacy will unite with Protestant America (beast from the earth from Revelation 13) to persecute those who keep the commandments of God! (Revelation 12:17).
A global system of worship will be established worldwide, and the freedom of conscience will again be under attack! (Revelation 13:15.17).
The Papacy will enforce its mark upon the world as a sign of allegiance to her, and thus, people who accept her mark (Sunday rest by law) will get the mark of the beast and be lost for eternity! (Revelation 14:9-11)
But fear not! There is great hope in Jesus!
Those who put their faith in Him will conquer this battle by His grace! (Revelation 12:11, 17:14, 20:4).
David prayed, “It is time for Thee, Lord, to work: for they have made void Thy law.” This prayer is no less pertinent at the present time.
The world has gone astray from God, and its lawless state should strike terror to the heart, and lead all who are loyal to the great King to work for a reformation.
The papal power has thought to change the law of God by substituting a spurious Sabbath for that of Jehovah; and all through the religious world the false sabbath is revered, while the true one is trampled beneath unholy feet….
It is on the law of God that the last great struggle of the controversy between Christ and His angels and Satan and his angels will come, and it will be decisive for all the world….
Men in responsible positions will not only ignore and despise the Sabbath themselves, but from the sacred desk will urge upon the people the observance of the first day of the week, pleading tradition and custom in behalf of this man-made institution.
They will point to calamities on land and sea—to the storms of wind, the floods, the earthquakes, the destruction by fire—as judgments indicating God’s displeasure because Sunday is not sacredly observed.
These calamities will increase more and more, one disaster will follow close upon the heels of another; and those who make void the law of God will point to the few who are keeping the Sabbath of the fourth commandment as the ones who are bringing wrath upon the world.
This falsehood is Satan’s device that he may ensnare the unwary.
Ellen White – The Southern Watchman, June 28, 1904.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the Climate Change Sabbath is nothing but a Trojan Horse strategy of Rome to enforce her mark of authority upon everyone: small and great, rich and poor, free and bond.
The deception is leading its way in the darkness and will strike many who are not aware of the Bible prophecies.
Remember, when the disciples asked Jesus what are the signs of His second coming and the end of the world, the Lord said to them:
“Take heed, that no man deceive you”. (Matthew 24:3,4)
Never forget that Satan transforms himself into an angel of light, and he is deceiving the whole world. (2 Corinthians 11:14), (Revelation 12:9). And he is working through earthly powers!
But you don’t have to be deceived! Stick with the Word of God, be loyal to Him, and keep His commandments and you will be saved!
It is still not too late to get out of Babylon! (Revelation 18:4). But one day it will be!
God is calling you today because He loves you with everlasting love! (Jeremiah 31:3)
Will you obey and listen to His voice when the majority follow the crowds?
My dear friend, the choice is yours!
