(Revelation 8:7-12; 14:6-9, 15; 16:1-11; 19:11-16)
In A.D. 600, the prophet Muhammed rebuked the Arab Christians, saying, “People of the Book, go not beyond the bounds in your religion, and say not as to God but the truth. The Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, was only the Messenger of God, and His Word that He committed to Mary, and a Spirit from Him. So, believe in God and His Messengers, and say not ‘Three.’”1Arberry Quran 4:171
At this time, the Catholic Church corrupted the image of God and enforced Sunday rest, despising the commandment that God had given to Moses.
Jesus said that at the end of the age, He “will send forth His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all stumbling blocks, and those who commit lawlessness.”2Matt 13:41
The Trinity doctrine — the image of the beast — and changing the day of rest to Sunday — the mark of the beast — are significant obstacles to man’s salvation. They are significant obstacles to all God-fearing Christians and to all Muslims and Jews, who represent three billion people who believe in the one God who created heaven and earth.
In Revelation 8, 14, 16, and 19, we find the angels that Jesus sent out to gather out of His kingdom “all stumbling blocks and those who commit lawlessness.”
• In Revelation 8, four angels sound four trumpets that remove the lawless from the Kingdom of Heaven and protect the righteous.
• In Revelation 14, four angels announce the cleansing of Babylon. The third angel says, “If anyone worships the beast and his image … he will also drink of the wine of the wrath of God.”3Rev 14:9-10
• In Revelation 16, five angels announce five bowls of wrath on the kingdom of the beast, the first of which is sores on those who receive the mark of the beast and worship his image.
• In Revelation 19, a rider on a white horse, followed by the armies of heaven, strikes down the Gentiles using the Word of God.
