NEED TO KNOW.
HISTORY WILL BE REPEATED, THE FINAL ISSUE IS ALL ABOUT WORSHIP.

Take a look at what king Nebuchadnezzar did as recorded in the book of Daniel:

Daniel 3: 1- ...'Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of gold ... Then Nebuchadnezzar the king sent to gather together the princes, the governors, and the captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the image ... Then an herald cried aloud, to you it is commanded, O people, nations, and languages, that AT WHAT TIME ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, ye fall down and worship the golden image ... And whoso falleth not down and worshippeth shall the same hour be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.'

Wow! So what did Nebuchadnezzar do? He sets up this image and gathered ALL the kingdoms officials, then a 'loud herald' was given to all 'peoples, nations and languages,' and a SPECIFIC TIME was SET ASIDE for all people to WORSHIP the image. The three angels messages of Revelation 14 are given as 'loud cries' to all 'nations, kindred, tongue and people' as a warning herald from God due to the worship of the beast and image to be enforced upon the world. And what did Nebuchadnezzar do? He set aside a SPECIFIC TIME for the people to worship his false god.

Jehovah has set aside a SPECIFIC TIME to keep holy (the 7th day Sabbath - Saturday), which we keep to show our allegiance to Jehovah and worship HIM as the only true God. The Papal Church of Rome has set aside a SPECIFIC TIME to keep (1st day of the week - SUNday), which is in honor of their FALSE TRINITY GOD!

"This feast, which falls on the first Sunday after Pentecost, should make us mindful that actually every Sunday is devoted to the honor of the Most Holy Trinity, that every Sunday is sanctified and consecrated to the triune God." (Catholic Culture - )

So just as Nebuchadnezzar set aside a SPECIFIC TIME for the people to bow to his image and false god, the Catholic Church has also set aside a specific time in honor of her false god, in opposition to the specific time that Jehovah, the one true God, gave us to keep holy. And an IMAGE of Papal Rome is being set up in America (church-state alliance) which will cause all to worship the image of the Papacy and take the mark of Papal Rome. The image of Nebuchadnezzar was a literal statue image. Whereas the image being set up in America is an image to the Papal Church of Rome. This isn't going to be a literal statue, but rather an image of what the Papacy is - a church state union, with the church directing the state power (harlot woman riding the beast Revelation 17).

Please understand this! By accepting Rome's Sunday rest as the Sabbath instead of God's 7th day Sabbath. And by accepting Rome's '3 in 1' false trinity god instead of the one true God the Father, you are giving your WORSHIP to the beast, instead of to God! And as we know, the beast's mark is all to do with worship.

Does that mean you have already received the mark of the beast if you keep Sunday or worship the false trinity god? No, not yet. Praise God that you still have time to turn to the TRUTH and give your worship to God instead of Rome and the fallen churches. The Sunday rest and false god of Rome do not become the mark until they are enforced by law upon us. Remember, America is going to 'speak and cause' the world to worship the beast (the Papacy and it's image in America), as Revelation 13 says. This 'speaking and causing' is putting something into LAW. So no one receives the mark until the Sunday rest law and false god of Rome are enforced upon us to keep by law.

But what about 'buying and selling'? How does this tie into buying and selling? Simple. What is being brought about now? A cashless society. So what will the leaders be able to do when we refuse to bow to Rome's Sunday law and false trinity god? They will simply be able to press a button and BLOCK our finances! It's that simple! And this is what it means in Revelation 13 about us not being able to buy and sell. When we refuse to go along with Rome's mark which is in opposition to God and His commandments, they will block our finances and we will not be able to buy and sell.

This is all to do with worship friends ... "Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus." (Rev.14:12)
