Q:
“WHY DID EMPEROR CONSTANTINE MAKE SUNDAY THE REST DAY?”
A:
“HE WAS A WOLF IN SHEEP’S CLOTHING … woof! woof! baa! baa!”
Also
called speaking out of both side of the mouth.
Dear
Reader, after a couple centuries of Rome unsuccessfully
attempting to eliminate
the early Christians with intense, horrific and deadly persecutions …
indeed
having the opposite effect, as it is said that 50% of the Roman
citizens
had become Christians by the end of the Imperial Persecutions in AD 313
… the Roman
Emperor Constantine in AD 321 sat down, had a nice hot cup of
English
Breakfast tea (leave the bag in please, no sugar and a few drops of
milk) with
an Arnott’s Iced Vo Vo … and thoughtfully said the following to himself
…
“Mmmm!
This persecution business isn’t working! Half the population are
now Christians
… I think I need another strategy … now let me think … I know …
I’ll
make a civil decree and make Sunday as the day of rest
instead of
the Jewish Saturday.”
“This
will make me look like the Christians’ friend.”
“Furthermore,
I’ll pretend to be a Christian as well … we’ll let them build
church
buildings and worship on Sunday … that’ll bring
them out into
the open where we can more easily spy on them! I’m a genius!”
“Anyhow
… put it this way … the Christians have been worshipping on the
first day of
the week for about 250 years, since Paul appeared
on the
scene (Acts 20:7; 1 Corinthians 16:2). I’m only rubber-stamping the
whole
thing.”

And
of course Dear Reader, Rome then morphed itself from being a spent
political
power into the ‘religious’ set-up we have today … you know …
doing
whatever it takes … (boof! boof! being a combination of
woof!
woof! and baa! baa! … anyhow the name of the game these days is hybrid
…
gender indeterminate … non-binary … petrol and electric … the best of
both
worlds)
Of
course, Einstein didn’t help did he? … you know … it’s
all relative isn’t it? … relative motion
… is he going backwards or going forwards?
You
know … what is truth? There are no absolutes!
ROME
HAS NEVER, EVER, EVER, EVER BEEN ABOUT RELIGION … JUST SIMPLY A
MURDEROUS
POLITICAL FORCE!
It
has been estimated that hundreds of millions have been killed under
Rome … with
its indulgence-extortions leaving Catholic countries poor,
superstitious
and one heartbeat from hell.
And
Dear Reader, the movie will continue with the Pope being the false
prophet in
St John’s Book of the Revelation (Revelation 16:13; 19:20; 10:10).
Do
yourself a favour … do some proper King James Bible study … not the
NKJV.
Be
not fooled … Rome is a wolf in sheep’s clothing … a political power
fornicating
with the kings of the earth (Revelation 17:18; 18:3, 9)
Constantine
a Christian?
Pull the other leg … decreed Sunday
worship as a matter of political and economic convenience.
Ol’
Connie … the Con Man … good name don’t you think … was a sacramental
pretender … you know … ya’ gotta eat
the actual physical body Jesus and drink his actual physical blood and
get him
into your tummy … “Quick Mum get the Priest … Dad’s on his last legs!”
Mmmm!
Snack! Snack! Tastes like wine and a Jatz Cracker to me!
“Over
the teeth
Over
the gums
Look
out ventriculum
Here
is comes!”
Yep!
In one end and out the other.
As
a
Landscape Gardener, I once did some work for a bloke … a cautious man …
who
went to both the Church of England and Roman Catholic services … to
cover all
bases you know … in case one was wrong and the other was right.
Can’t
be too careful can you?
