The United States in the Light of Prophecy

CHAPTER Ten
26/29

There can therefore be no worship of the beast, nor reception of his mark, such as is contemplated in the prophecy, till it is enforced by the two-horned beast.

We have seen that _intention_ was essential to the change which the papacy has made in the law of God, to constitute it the mark of that power.

So _intention_ is necessary in the adoption of that change to make it on the part of any individual the reception of that mark.

In other words, a person must adopt the change, knowing it to be the work of the beast, and receive it on the authority of that power, in opposition to the requirement of God.
But how with those referred to above who have kept Sunday in the past, and the majority of those who are keeping it to-day?
Do they keep it as an institution of the papacy?
No.

Have they decided between this and the Sabbath of the Lord, understanding the claims of each?
No.
