ECONOMISTS IN AMERICA BLAME THE REPEAL OF SUNDAY BLUE LAWS TO THE RISE IN DEATH AND DESPAIR - ALSO, COLOMBIA'S NEW LAW ENFORCES A MANDATORY DAY OF REST "WHICH MAY FALL ON SUNDAY"

NEWS UPDATE - 25th January 2023

We were told that this would happen! As death and despair rises around the world, the blame is being put on the repeal of the Sunday rest blue laws and decline in religion.

"A trio of economists has tied the rise in death and despair to the decline in religious practice in America ... The recent dramatic increase in deaths of despair, suicides, fatal drug overdoses, and deaths due to alcoholism, is directly connected to the decline in organized religion in the United States- and to the repeal of blue laws that once prohibited some commerce on Sundays in observance of the Christian Sabbath ... Using graphical analysis and difference-in-differences methods, the economists were able to map a DIRECT CONNECTION BETWEEN THE REPEAL OF THESE LAWS AND THE INCREASE IN DEATHS OF DESPAIR." (source)

Wow! They are not saying this is just some minor thing that 'may' have some sort of connection. They are saying now that there is a direct connection between the trouble in the world and the repeal of Sunday blue laws. Just as prophesied in the 1884 Great controversy below:

"It will be declared that the nation is offending God by the violation of the Sunday-Sabbath, that this sin has brought calamities which will not cease until Sunday observance shall be strictly enforced ... They will lament the great wickedness in the world, and second the testimony of religious teachers, that the degraded state of morals is caused by the desecration of Sunday." (The Spirit of Prophecy, Volume 4, (Great Controversy) 1884, p.408-409)

They are not only stating that the repeal of the Sunday blue laws have a direct connection to the rise in death and despair, but also that this is the reason for the decline in 'religious practice.' So what is the obvious answer to this? You guessed it! Re-enact the Sunday rest laws! Something that the nation of Colombia is heading towards right now:

"From this year, Law 2101 of 2021 begins to take effect, which aims to reduce the working day and gradually go from 48 hours to 42, in five or six days a week, depending on the agreement made by workers and employers ... The organization's report indicates that, due to the high workload that Colombians have, they would be suffering more physical and emotional problems that they must face every day ... The regulations explain that when the 42-hour week is carried out through flexible daily working days, distributed in a maximum of six days a week, the worker MUST HAVE A MANDATORY REST DAY, WHICH MAY COINCIDE WITH SUNDAY." (source)

'May coincide with Sunday.' Obviously that is the plan. As we know, God gave us a weekly day of rest, His 7th day Sabbath, which is our Saturday today. God set this day apart from all of the other 6 common work days to be a holy day, sanctified unto Him, for us to keep holy in honor of our Creator, so that we could be refreshed BY HIM through faith. But as we know, the world 'wonders after the beast' just as Revelation 13 stated. That beast being the Papal Church of Rome who substituted Jehovah's 7th day Sabbath rest, with their own PAGAN day - Sunday, in honor of their false 3 in 1 trinity god. And one day soon, the Sunday rest law will be enforced through pressure and direction from the fallen churches - 'for the sake of humanity' - in opposition to Jehovah and HIS law, and all who bow to the Sunday decree will receive the mark of the beast.
