| Good day, Earlier this morning, I received an email that I felt everyone should read. Even if you read this message after the actual event, it will give you perspective of where we are all at in world history and how close we are to the Lord coming again. Please read the message below. Peace, mont Subject: SDANEWS: Urgent: Adventist to Testify Before U.S. CongressDear Friends of Freedom,
Next Tuesday, February 12, 2008, is a historic day. For the first time in a generation, a representative of the Seventh-day Adventist Church will be testifying before Congress in support of the rights of Sabbath keepers and other people of faith in the workplace. It is a historic opportunity-but to capitalize on it, we need two things in advance.
First and foremost, we earnestly seek your prayers. We know we are weak, we know the odds are firmly against us, and we know just how vulnerable we are. But we also know we serve an all-powerful God who listens when His people call upon Him.
Second, and very importantly, we need our church to raise its voice to Congress like we've never done before. Send your letters now at <http://capwiz.com/narla/utr/1/CBHMIBNXJM/LTOAIBNXMS/1722574161>www.religiousliberty.info. In under two minutes you can send a letter from <http://capwiz.com/narla/utr/1/CBHMIBNXJM/IJJPIBNXMT/1722574161>www.religiousliberty.info. There's even a letter there already written for you to use. If you prefer, you can write your own letter on the site and have it sent.
Two minutes is a small price to pay for freedom! What if you've already sent a letter? Take a minute to send another letter to keep this vital bill fresh before Members of Congress. And please pass on this note to your family and church friends, so they can raise their voices, too. This is our chance to stand up and be counted in a very real way for religious liberty. Let's not let it pass us by.
But don't stop there! This Sabbath, make sure an announcement is made in your church calling for prayer and letters in advance of the hearing. And please forward this note to your church friends and family to get the word out. This is real. This is happening right now. And it is up to us to seize this moment God has entrusted to us. To confirm the facts in this e-mail and for more details, visit <http://capwiz.com/narla/utr/1/CBHMIBNXJM/DKQDIBNXMU/1722574161>www.religiousliberty.info.
Friends, make no mistake about it. Our brothers and sisters in the faith are suffering because of bigotry in the workplace. As the law stands now, employers can refuse to give us time to worship our God without any good reason. Like Pharaoh of old, who arbitrarily refused the Israelites time to worship their God, today many employers presume to arbitrarily stand between faithful Adventist men and women and the worship of our God. This cannot stand in a nation conceived in liberty. The Workplace Religious Freedom Act is a commonsense, reasonable bill that simply requires employers to show they have a good reason to refuse time off on Sabbath before they fire a Seventh-day Adventist. It is not a lot to ask.
Indeed, as Congress has worked to give rights to many groups in the workplace, it has left Sabbath keepers and other people of faith far behind. Today, the ACLU and its friends on the fringes are working tirelessly to ensure that the Workplace Religious Freedom Act is defeated. We cannot let them remain unchallenged. Go to <http://capwiz.com/narla/utr/1/CBHMIBNXJM/FNLSIBNXMV/1722574161>www.religiousliberty.info and send your letters now. Forward this note to your family and church members and invite them to send in their own letters.
I want you to know that your religious liberty team is doing all we can here in the nation's capital and across this great land to ensure the promise of religious liberty is a reality for our members, and for all other people of faith. But, friends, we cannot do it alone. Please uplift us in your prayers. And please send your letters now from <http://capwiz.com/narla/utr/1/CBHMIBNXJM/DIBVIBNXMW/1722574161>www.religiousliberty.info. This is our opportunity. By the grace of God, let's seize it. | |

| Good day, I thought everyone should see this email that I received back in November 2007. It is interesting to see what has occurred in the presidential race since I received this email. Peace, mont Subject: SDANEWS: COPY OF AN E-MAIL ADDRESSED TO ALL SDA’S And read to attendees of a retirees meeting in Calimesa, CA November 6, 2007
Tonight I spoke personally with an inside source (the co-chairman of the Christian Coalition) and he confirmed something I heard.
This month, November 14 and 15 there will be a special meeting held at The Pope John Paul Cultural Center. This meeting is given and paid for by the Vatican. There will be two speakers; one is a cardinal, and the agenda of this meeting is to point out the state our world is in, to bring back Israel to obedience, and to push the 7th Amendment for a national day of rest. One of the societies that will be present is the SOS, which stands for “Save our Sundays.” The Christian Coalition will be looking for support from our Presidential nominees for this amendment.
Senators that will be there include front runner John Moore, Nancy Polosi, John McCain, John Werner, Gary Brown; also Al Gore to talk about the global warming; Dr. James Dobson, and Pat Robertson.
It is important to keep in mind that when Sunday law becomes actually implemented our time of probation is CLOSED! The time of sealing is over! Jesus said “He that is holy let him be holy still, and he that is filthy, let him be filthy still.” It is time to repent and get prepared, our time is short.
Forward this to everyone!!! God Bless You all. | |
