Gods G.P.S
In Exodus 25:8, the Bible records Gods instruction to ancient Israel saying, And let them make me a sanctuary; that I may dwell among them. The Psalmist wrote, Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God? Psalm 77:13. The Sanctuary served as GPS (Gods Plan of Salvation) to correctly direct mankind to the throne of God.

During the Dark Ages, the G.P.S was tampered with, giving faulty directions to the throne of God. Each article of furniture, and the truth it represented was altered. See Daniel 7:25, Daniel 8:11-12.

alone. The Bible says, 'Remember the Sabbath day ts keep it holy.' The Catholic Church says: 'No. By my divine power I abolish the Sabbath day and command you to keep holy the first day of the week.' And lo! the entire civilized world bows down in a reverent obedience to the command of the holy Catholic Church."--T. ENRIGHT, C.S.S.R., in a lecture at Hartford, Kan- sas, Feb. 18, 1884.
estant, by virtue of her divine mission, changed the day from Saturday to Sunday."--The Catholic Mirror, Sept. 23, 1893.
"You may read the Bible from Genesis to Revelation, and you will not find a single line authorizing the sanctification of Sunday. The Scriptures enforce the religious observance of Saturday, a day which we [Catholics] never sanctify." --JAMES CARDINAL GIBBONS, "The Faith of Our Fathers," page 111. "Reason and sense demand the acceptance of one or the other of these alternatives: either Protestantism and the keeping holy of Saturday or Catholicity and the keeping holy of Sunday. Com- promise is impossible." --JAMES CARDINAL GIBBONS, Catholic Mirror, Dec. 23, 1983. "There is but one church on the face of the earth which has the power, or claims power, to make laws binding on the conscience, binding before God, binding under penalty of hell-fire. For instance, the institution of Sunday. What right has any other church to keep this day? You answer by virtue of the third commandment [the Papacy changed the fourth commandment and called it the third], which says, 'Remember that thou keep holy the Sabbath day.' But Sunday is not the Sabbath. Any school- boy knows that Sunday is the first day of the week. I have repeatedly offered one thousand dollars to anyone who will prove by the Bible alone that Sunday is the day we are hound to keep, and no one has called for the money. It was the holy Catholic Church that changed the day of rest from Saturday, the seventh day, to Sunday, the first day of the week."--T. ENRIGHT, C. S. S. R., in a lecture delivered in 1893.

"QUESTION: How prove you that the Church hath power to command feasts and holy days? "ANSWER: By the very act of changing the Sabbath into Sun- day, which Protestants allow of; and therefore they fondly contradict themselves, by keeping Sunday strictly, and breaking most other feasts commanded by the same Church.
"QUESTION: How prove you that? "ANSWER: Because by keeping Sunday, they acknowledge the Church's power to ordain feasts, and to command them under sin and by not keeping the rest [of the feasts] by her commanded, they again deny, in fact, the same power."--HENRY TUBERVILLE, D. D., "An Abridgment of the Christian Doctrine" (R. C.), page 58.

See Daniel 8:13-14. The final church is described in the book of Revelation as they that keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. Revelation 12:17.
