Obama to UN: US Respects Universal Values of Religious Freedom, Free Speech
Obama Moves away from ‘Freedom of Religion’ toward ‘Freedom of Worship’
For the United States to take the step of dominating religious worship it would have to have a complete reversal of its present policy of acknowledging that inalienable right of full freedom of religion to all of its citizens. The change in policy will no doubt come in a seemingly innocent way. But any attempt to regulate religion is not at all innocent. It is the very impulse of the Papacy and of Satan himself.
But regulating worship or requiring a certain type of worship is the very step that the Bible says will happen. And the United States will be in the forefront of the movement. The one religious worship law that Rome has consistently championed and which she is still advocating, is the principle of Sunday observance as a day of rest and worship. Gradually, imperceptivity, Rome is working to bring all the nations under her banner in defiance of the law of God.
Notice too, that this second beast, the United States, takes on an international or global responsibility for helping Rome impose this worship law, because it says in verse 12, “he causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast.” This law would not just be implemented in the United States, though that is where the worship aspects of this law would be implemented first. It is referring to the whole earth. America could not require something of everyone else in the world unless it compelled its own citizens to obey such a law. So, the ultimate religious tyranny begins in the United States and spreads to other nations until it is eventually a universal Sunday law.
In order for the second beast to exercise that kind of power, or “all the power of the first beast,” the United States will have to achieve dictatorial power over its citizens, remove their personal rights and liberties, and take on a religious principle, mixing church and state. The infallible word of God declares that America will change, and change dramatically.
Just think about this for a minute. If the United States is going to do all that, what has to happen? There would have to be the complete overthrow of the U.S. Constitution and its signature Bill of Rights. This cannot be done all at once. The power described here in Revelation cannot attack religious liberty head on. It has to work steadily, persistently, stealthily and gradually, eroding the principles of the constitution until the people are willing to accept complete control of their lives. Then a Sunday law with its economic sanctions and its death penalty can be imposed (see verses 15-17). Most people are clueless. They do not suspect these dramatic changes to the nation. And they cannot foresee them because they do not understand Bible prophecy.
