God's Day
Does God have a holy day?
I was in the Spirit on the Lords day. Revelation 1:10
The Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath day. Matthew 12:8
The seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God. Exodus 20:8-11 (from the Ten Commandments)
If you love Me (Jesus Christ) keep My commandments. John 14:15, 21, 24. John 15:10
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 in it He rested from all His work which God created and made. Genesis 2:2-3
God...created all things by Jesus Christ. Ephesians 3:9, 11
Regarding Christ's death and resurrection:
And that day was the preparation day (Friday) and the sabbath drew on. And the women also, which came with Him from Galilee, followed after, and beheld the sepulcher, and how His body was laid. And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested on the sabbath day (Saturday) according to the commandment. Now on the first day (Sunday) of the week, very early in the morning, they came to the sepulcher. Luke 23:54-56, 24:1

Will This Happen in America?
Satan has control of all whom God does not especially guard. Satan will favor and prosper some in order to further his own designs, and he will bring trouble upon others and lead men to believe that it is God who is afflicting them.
Satan will bring disease and disaster, until populous cities are reduced to ruin and desolation.
Even now Satan is at work. In accidents and calamities by sea and land, in great fire-storms, in fierce tornadoes, and terrific hailstorms, in tempests, floods, cyclones, tidal waves, and earthquakes; in every place and in a thousand forms, Satan is exercising his power.
He sweeps away the ripening harvest, and famine and distress follow. He imparts to the air a deadly taint, and thousands perish by the pestilence.
These visitations are to become more and more frequent and disastrous.
And then the great deceiver will persuade the world that those who serve God are causing these evils.
The nominal religious class that have provoked God's displeasure will charge all their troubles upon those who obey God's commandments. It will be declared that commandment keepers are offending God by the violation of Sunday; that the calamities will not cease until Sunday-keeping will be strictly enforced.
Those who honor the Bible seventh-day Sabbath will be denounced as enemies of law and order, as breaking down the moral restraints of society, causing anarchy and corruption. Their conscientious scruples will be pronounced obstinacy, stubbornness, and contempt of authority. They will be accused of disaffection toward the government.
And then comes National Sunday laws...

Things I Learned from Holy Scripture, the Bible
Below are some things I learned from the Bible in 1974
1. Angels are not dead people since they existed before the creation of humans.
1. Angels are not dead people since they existed before the creation of humans.
Job 38:6-7
2. We should carefully guard our words and actions so no one
can use them against us. Others will see if our faith is genuine by our words
and actions.
3. It is better to store riches in
Heaven than on earth. Mark 4:18-20, Luke 8:14,
Luke 12:21
4. Satan will try to influence everyone. Some influences will be subtle, others
hard-hitting. Sometimes Satan will appear as an angel of light. 2 Corinthians 11:14
5. Saturday is the Lord's Day Sabbath. ( an
unknown person from Georgia, USA mailed me a newspaper article entitled, “Why do
the Heathen Rage.” Which confirmed from the Bible that Saturday is
God’s Sabbath!)
Exodus 20:8-11, Luke 4:16, Isaiah 66:22-23! John 14:15,21,24. John 15:10.
6. Jesus will come again visibly,
unexpectedly and soon. 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18

CATHOLIC
LAUX, John. A COURSE
IN RELIGION FOR CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOLS AND ACADEMIES Vol. 1
p 51 1936
"If
we consulted the Bible only, we should still have to keep holy the Sabbath day,
that is Saturday."
"Q. By what authority did the Church change the
observance of the Sabbath from Saturday to Sunday?
"A. The Church changed the observance of the
Sabbath from Saturday to Sunday by right of the divine, infallible authority
given to her by her Founder, Jesus Christ. The Protestant, claiming the Bible
to be the only guide of faith, has no warrant for observing Sunday. In this matter the Seventh-day Adventist is
the only consistent Protestant."
THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSE BULLETIN August 14, 1942 p 4
Official paper of the Cleveland Roman Catholic Diocese
THE CATHOLIC VIRGINIAN,
Richmond, Virginia, October 3, 1947
"All of us believe many things in regard to religion that we do not find in the Bible. For example, nowhere in the Bible do we find that Christ or the Apostles ordered that the Sabbath be changed to Sunday. We have the commandment of God given to Moses to keep holy the Sabbath day, that is the seventh day of the week, Saturday. Today most Christians keep Sunday because it has been revealed to us by the [Catholic] Church outside the Bible."

My Horse Friends
A major facet in my youth was horses. Our Lutheran church friends from Germany, two elderly brothers Karl and Ernie Wolff, owned Hillside Stables in Omaha, Nebraska. When I was three years old the family went to see the horses and I rode an older mare.
Hillside Stables had many interesting and impressive horses such as:
Golden Centaur - an elegant palomino with arched neck, large dark eyes; white, wavy tail and mane and a high tail carriage.
Pepper - the black, classic Morgan;
two thoroughbreds ridden by seventy-year old twin sisters;
Snow King - a white 30-year old retired circus horse;
Private Eye - a handsome, dark chestnut Saddlebred with green-hazel eyes;
and my champion Appaloosa - Spottum Bottum.
Point of interest: at Hillside Stables, in the 1960’s, feed, hay and board in a box stall with use of tack room and all facilities was one dollar a day; and horse rental was $1.25 an hour!
In Omaha, Hillside was located on a huge property bordered by the Papio Creek on the south and west, by Dodge Street on the north, and by the Interstate on the east. There were 3 large pastures to ride in, and a tree nursery too! It was a true pleasure to be at Hillside!
A Jewish friend, Elisse, owned a beautiful palomino named Golden Banner. Since she was Jewish she kept God’s Ten Commandments including keeping holy Saturday - the seventh-day Sabbath. The Fourth Commandment says that cattle (domestic animals) should not work on Sabbath.
Exodus 20:8-11. So on Sabbath Elisse would only turn Banner out to pasture and then give him a good rub-down; she never rode Banner on the seventh-day Sabbath.
