The sabbath begun in the finishing of the work of creation; so will the everlasting sabbath in the finishing of the work of providence and redemption; and we observe the weekly sabbath in expectation of that, as well as in remembrance of the former, in both conforming ourselves to him we worship.
He hath himself blessed the sabbath day and sanctified it. He hath put an honour upon it; it is holy to the Lord, and honourable; and he hath put blessings into it which he hath encouraged us to expect from him in the religious observation of that day....

‘Designating’ Antifa a Terrorist Organization Is a Bad Idea

National Review ^
| 8/31/2017 | Andrew McCarthy
I know this sounds crazy, but Donald Trump will not be president forever. In
fact, he hasn’t been president that long . . . meaning, it was not so long ago that we were dealing with an Obama administration — and its media-Democrat pom-pom squads — that regarded limited-government conservatives, Second Amendment proponents, and many veterans returning from overseas military service as “right-wing extremists” who posed a threat of “domestic terrorism.” Someday, maybe sooner than we’d like to think, Democrats are going to be in power again. Do we really want to give them enhanced federal powers to harass ideological...

President Donald Trump has said he is considering designating Antifa a terrorist organization. 'Consideration
is being given to declaring ANTIFA, the gutless Radical Left Wack Jobs who go around hitting (only non-fighters) people over the heads with baseball bats, a major Organization of Terror (along with MS-13 & others),' Trump wrote in a tweet on Saturday. 'Would make it easier for police to do their job!' the president continued. Antifa is not a formal organization, but rather a loose collection of people best known for wearing masks and assaulting people they deem to be 'fascists' in street battles.

Designating Hezbollah as a terrorist group is a legal tool On the heels of the Third Western Hemisphere Counterterrorism Ministerial Conference in Bogota, noted journalist Jana Beris from Colombia’s daily newspaper El Tiempo conducted an extensive interview with SFS Executive Director Joseph Humire on the implications of the recent terrorist designation of
Hezbollah (and other Islamist terrorist organizations) by the Duque government in Colombia. The following is an unofficial translation of the interview: JosephHumire, one of the foremost experts on Hezbollah and Iran in Latin America,doesn’t have any doubt: designating Hezbollah as a foreign terroristorganization isn’t just a political show—it’s a legal...

Biden denies designating Easter as the ‘Transgender Day of Visibility’

American Thinker ^
| 04/01/2024 | Andrea Widburg
Normal Americans were very upset to learn that Biden had issued an official proclamation declaring that Sunday, March 31, was this year’s official, national “Transgender Day of Visibility.” They were upset because March 31 also happened to be Easter, the holiest day in the Christian calendar. Having
become aware of the outrage, Biden has now denied that he made that proclamation. It’s proof, as if we need it that Biden is either (a) demented, (b) a puppet, or (c) a compulsive liar. If this were a multiple choice, my answer would be “all of the above.” Biden’s proclamation appeared on...

Finally, a U.S. president who understands the threat. The
Trump administration is considering officially designating the Islamist group known as the Muslim Brotherhood as a Foreign Terrorist Organization, a policy unimaginable during the terrorist-friendly Obama administration which championed the group as an ally. “The president has consulted with his national security team and leaders in the region who share his concern, and this designation is working its way through the internal process,” White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said in a statement April 30. The Trump administration’s deliberations over the prospective designation come weeks after President Trump designated Iran’s...

On Tuesday, Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, announced that he has reintroduced two bills, alongside Congressman Michael McCaul R-Texas, and Congressman Mario Diaz-Balart, R-Florida, to protect Americans from radical Islamic terrorism. One
measure targets the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and the other takes aim at the Muslim Brotherhood. “I am proud to reintroduce these bills that would codify needed reforms in America’s war against radical Islamic terrorism,” he said. “This potent threat to our civilization has intensified under the Obama administration due to the willful blindness of politically-correct policies that hamper our safety and security.

The Biden administration on Wednesday announced it would not support efforts to brand Mexican drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations, indicating such a move would provide little value in combatting their operations. "Designating
these cartels as FTOs (foreign terrorist organizations) would not grant us any additional authorities that we don't really have at this time. The United States has powerful sanctions authorities specifically designated to combat narcotics trafficking organizations and the individuals and entities that enable them," White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters on Wednesday. "In the last few months alone Treasury has announced a series of actions...

The Iranian parliament approved bill on Tuesday that designates United States military forces as terrorists, days after American airstrikes killed top Iranian military leader General Qassem Soleimani in Iraq. The bill is similar to the action the U.S. took last year when the Trump administration designated Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC)
as a foreign terrorist organization. Members of parliament passed the bill declaring the U.S. military and the Pentagon terrorist entities, according to Iranian state media. Under the bill, the Iranian government will also provide $220 million to the IRGC to "reinforce its defense power in vengeance for General...

The United States is today designating key Hizballah operatives and financiers operating a network in South America and Lebanon that generates revenue for Hizballah’s terrorist activities and provides cover for its presence in Latin America. Today’s action, taken in collaboration with partners in the U.S. government, including the Drug Enforcement Administration, underscores
our commitment to pursuing the financiers, supporters and facilitators who sustain Hizballah’s ability to threaten the security, stability, and prosperity of Lebanon and the global financial system. We will continue our efforts to root out networks that would abuse the U.S. and international financial systems to fund and...

HUGE: Trump Leans Toward Designating Muslim Brotherhood A Terrorist Organization

According to reports, President Donald Trump met with staunchly anti-Islamist Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi earlier this month and is now working to formally deem the Muslim Brotherhood — the international Islamist group that serves as the mother's milk for much of the Sunni extremism that plagues the Arab world — a
terrorist organization. The move would bring the United States in line with many anti-Islamist Arab allies, such as Egypt, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Bahrain — each of which also formally designates the Brotherhood as a terrorist organization. The White House directed national security and diplomatic...

Should We Keep the Sabbath?
|
| |
Creation Research Institute ^
| 2003 | James A. Borland
Some groups today, such as the Seventh-day Adventists, teach that keeping the seventh-day Sabbath is a perpetual moral law meant for all people, and that not keeping it is a sign of apostasy and disloyalty to God. They base their belief on Genesis 2:1–3, which tells of God resting after His creative
work and then sanctifying the Sabbath day, and on the fourth commandment. They also argue that the New Testament teaches the continuity of seventh-day Sabbath observance by Christ’s followers, even after Christ’s death. These beliefs, however, are misguided. There is no universal moral obligation given in Genesis 2...

What About The Sabbath?

The reason For My Faith ^
| 11/7/21 | Chuck Ness
Throughout His ministry, Jesus never once broke the fourth commandment which required that all Jews observe the Sabbath. He was after all Jew. However, He did give us a clue that a change to the Sabbath was coming. To
make my point, you must first understand that the original manuscripts of the Scriptures were not divided into verses and chapters.The Old Testament manuscripts were written by scribes for the religious leaders to study. The New Testament manuscripts were letters originally written to be dispersed amongst the believers to read. They were like the letters you receive today. Just a document...
