Both defile God’s sanctuary and profane the day of worship. 

Ezekiel 23:38

“Moreover they have done this to Me: They have defiled My sanctuary on the same day and profaned My Sabbaths.” Ezekiel 23:38 

God established the Sabbaths and Sundays as a means for believers to come together to worship God in the Holy Spirit in the name of Jesus the Christ. These days are intended to be dedicated to teaching the life of Holiness and the process of sanctification. When the gathering together in the churches on the Sabbaths and Sundays are used for other purposes, those days are being corrupted. They are blaspheming the Living God.

The Jewish people corrupt the Sabbaths because they totally ignore the “scarlet cord” that points to Jesus as the Christ and Son of God. They have discarded the entire New Testament, which is the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and live only by the Old Testament. The sanctuary of the soul is being defiled on the Sabbaths. Today, God speaks to us through Jesus Christ, “God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken to us by His Son…” Hebrews 1:1-2 Also, “The law and the prophets were until John. Since that time the kingdom of God has been preached, and everyone is pressing into it.” John 16:16

The churches of today, non-Jewish, have corrupted Sundays because the Gospel of Jesus Christ has been abandoned. They care more about forming an alliance with the community culture than they do about being set apart from the world to serve God through the Jesus Christ. They embrace the atheistic entity that gives people what to think, feel, do, and say. Those who attend Sunday church are plentiful, but their heart, soul, and mind are far from Jesus Christ. The sanctuary of the heart and soul is being defiled on Sundays through teaching and preaching that excludes Jesus and teaches the way of today’s culture.

Ezekiel gives a description of the churches of today, “As for you, son of man, the children of your people are talking about you beside the walls and in the doors of the houses; and they speak to one another, everyone saying to his brother, ‘Please come and hear what the word is that comes from the Lord.’ So they come to you as people do, they sit before you as My people, and they hear your words, but they do not do them; for with their mouth they show much love, but their hearts pursue their own gain. Indeed you are to them as a very lovely song of one who has a pleasant voice and can play well on an instrument; for they hear your words, but they do not do them. And when this comes to pass—surely it will come—then they will know that a prophet has been among them.” Ezekiel 33:30-33

After the corruption of the churches is described in chapters 2 and 3 of Revelation, the Lord speaks these words to the Apostle John, “Come up here, and I will show you things which must take place after this.” Revelation 4:1 That is described in Revelation 4. What the Lord shows John reveals how the corruption of the Church has led the way to the opening of the Seven Seals in Revelation 6, and the events of the Seven Trumpets in Revelation 8, 9. and 11, and the events of the Seven Plagues in Revelation 16 [which includes global warming].

“….to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned Satan’s so-called deep secrets,“
‘I will not impose any other burden on you, except to hold on to what you have until I come.’”
“I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.”
Revelation 2:24-25, 3:1
