For cities across the United States, and countries across the varied seas, June 2018 was a month full of bright colors and festive sounds. What were people celebrating? “Pride Month” – where revelers and activists parade the streets, in celebration of LGBTQ rights. In America, these rights include the right to get married, a national law that was passed by the U.S. Supreme Court on June 26, 2015 (the NSL – National Same-sex Law). All of this is leading to the final crisis over the seal of God and the mark of the beast. This National Same-sex Law is preparing the way for the National Sunday Law. 

Everything God has, satan has a counterfeit! In the garden of Eden “marriage and the Sabbath had their origin, twin institutions for the glory of God in the benefit of humanity. Then, as the Creator joined the hands of the holy pair in wedlock, saying, A man shall “leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one,” He enunciated the law of marriage for all the children of Adam to the close of time. That which the eternal Father Himself had pronounced good was the law of highest blessing and development for man”.  {Adventist Home, pg. 340}

This year, the pride movement made many headlines, highlighting several “firsts” for homosexual and transgender communities around the world. For example: Swaziland, a southern African country, held its first-ever pride parade. The country, that has the world’s highest HIV/AIDS rates, was supported by the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), the largest LGBT rights group in the United States… 

More and more the world is setting at nought the claims of God. Men have become bold in transgression. The wickedness of the inhabitants of the world has almost filled up the measure of their iniquity. This earth has almost reached the place where God will permit the destroyer to work his will upon it. The substitution of the laws of men for the law of God, the exaltation, by merely human authority, of Sunday in place of the Bible Sabbath, is the last act in the drama. When this substitution becomes universal, God will reveal Himself… {7T 141.1}

When the NSL (National Sunday Law) is passed, we will see its effects spread internationally; similarly (as we saw last month), the first NSL (National Same-sex Law) and the effects of the homosexual movement is also seen internationally.

Time is almost finished. To learn more about the relationship between these twin institutions, prayerfully watch this sermon that was presented a week before the first counterfeit twin was born (please click here)! We need a relationship with Jesus such as never before! These final movements will be rapid ones – GET READY, GET READY, GET READY!
