Yes, you read that title right; this is not clickbait, nor exaggeration. Project 2025 is a “Presidential Transition Project” that lays down a governing policy and agenda for the next conservative leader and President who will be elected in 2024, if it is a conservative. (Which it most likely will be the way America is looking. But I am no prophet.) Quote, taken directly from Project 2025’s website, states “It is not enough for conservatives to win elections. If we are going to rescue the country from the grip of the radical Left, we need both a governing agenda and the right people in place, ready to carry this agenda out on Day One of the next conservative Administration.” Really, if you hop on their website, they cut right to the chase when dealing with the “redemption” of America from the “radical Left”.
Project 2025 has a 180 day “playbook” labeled “Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise” where they lay out the exact policy that will be carried out on “Day One” of the new elected President’s office. On page 589 of this playbook, there is an entire section dedicated to “Sabbath Rest.”
And I quote, (NOTE: When they say “Sabbath” they mean Sunday.) “God ordained the Sabbath as a day of rest, and until very recently the Judeo-Christian tradition sought to honor that mandate by moral and legal regulation of work on that day. Moreover, a shared day off makes it possible for families and communities to enjoy time off together, rather than as atomized individuals, and provides a healthier cadence of life for everyone. Unfortunately, that communal day of rest has eroded under the pressures of consumerism and secularism, especially for low-income workers.”
They go on to say, “Congress should encourage communal rest by amending the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)9 to require that workers be paid time and a half for hours worked on the Sabbath (Sunday). That day would default to Sunday, except for employers with a sincere religious observance of a Sabbath at a different time (e.g., Friday sundown to Saturday sundown); the obligation would transfer to that period instead.” Congress being called on to initiate the early stages of Sunday laws is directly part of this conservative agenda. They cannot outright come out and say that Sunday is the only day on which this can be done and command everyone immediately to “rest, or else”. That will happen, yes, but not right away and at this moment, hence the reason they added that the time allotted for the Sabbath could swap to a different time, or to the true Sabbath from Friday Sundown to Saturday Sundown. As Bible believers, we know where this is heading, and we know what the bible says about the mark of the beast: Sunday Rest laws will soon be enforced as concrete law, and those who do not obey this law will not be able to buy or sell. (If you want to learn about the mark and what it is, see this study.)
Let’s continue to read, “Houses of worship (to the limited extent they may have FLSA-covered employees) and employers legally required to operate around the clock (such as hospitals and first responders) would be exempt, as would workers otherwise exempt from overtime.” But, that is not all, then it goes onto an “Alternative View.” I quote again, “While some conservatives believe that the government should encourage certain religious observance by making it more expensive for employers and consumers to not partake in those observances, other conservatives believe that the government’s role is to protect the free exercise of religion by eliminating barriers as opposed to erecting them. Whereas imposing overtime rules on the Sabbath would lead to higher costs and limited access to goods and services and reduce work available on the Sabbath (while also incentivizing some people—through higher wages—to desire to work on the Sabbath), the proper role of government in helping to enable individuals to practice their religion is to reduce barriers to work options and to fruitful employer and employee relations. The result: ample job options that do not require work on the Sabbath so that individuals in roles that sometimes do require Sabbath work are empowered to negotiate directly with their employer to achieve their desired schedule.” Raising the wage to overtime if someone chooses to work on the “Sabbath” can either encourage some to work on that day, or it would push businesses to simply close on Sunday to save and cut costs.
Having an entire section on “Sabbath Rest” proves enough where the agenda for the US Government is really heading. Project 2025 is bluntly saying that we should restore a Sunday Rest for our families and our nation which has been lost over time. They also lay down laws and regulations on how this would look in the beginning. While I admit readily, this lays down options for those who want to work on the “Sabbath” as they label it, or for those who do not. With that said, the fact that they are even mentioning this as part of their “restorative” agenda speaks volumes.
Remember how Project 2025 stated that, “we need both a governing agenda and the right people in place, ready to carry this agenda out on Day One of the next conservative Administration?” Well, there is a reason the U.S. Government and Congress is already full of Roman Catholics and Protestants. On October 25th, 2023, a new speaker of the house was elected; Mike Johnson. Mike Johnson is a Christian Nationalist, and a strong evangelical Christian. “The new House speaker (Mike Johnson) has put his faith at the center of his political career, and aligned himself with a newer cohort of conservative Christianity that some describe as Christian nationalism.” – The New York Times. Many people support him heavily because he calls himself a Christian and may even have a bible on his desk, or they do so simply because he prayed on the house floor after being elected. But, what they don’t understand is Christian prophecy; (God willing, they will soon) if they did, they would realize what is really happening and warn others. But most of the time the people in the pews are left without understanding on these issues, and are not to blame. Yes, we and they are called to study the bible individually and to “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15, because we all stand individually before God in judgment, and are being judged accordingly. But the pastors, priests, ministers, and leaders are supposed to be leading their flock properly, and they are not. “..if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.” Matthew 15:24.
Evangelicals and proclaiming Christians across the country are shouting and claiming revival will come to America and that it is coming as we speak. They look to Mike Johnson being elected as a God thing, Donald Trump being the last president, along with many other happenings in our halls of justice. Here’s the catch, what we see happening in our congress, white house, government, school systems, public spaces, organizations, and so on and so forth spreading across the land like leaven is Catholicism, not biblical Christianity. Yes, there are many good things that are happening across our land and the Lord’s hand is moving in MANY people’s hearts, that I have not doubt – Praise God! But, the spiritual movement that has long made its firm home in our government system is nothing more than a counterfeit; nothing more than “Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.” 2 Timothy 3:5
My hope through this article is that it gives you a more clear view of where we are heading as a country according to Bible prophecy, and helps you to draw nigh to our loving Saviour, Jesus; to get right with Him, and to trust in Him, and that it puts a fire in your heart to warn others. After all, God said this prophecy was going to happen 2,000 years ago!! And it is coming to pass in our very day; amazing, isn’t it?! Still, people will insist Sunday laws will never happen, but ignorance, willful or not, does not and cannot stop bible prophecy. This article is plenty enough proof to see where we are really heading, for those who want to see it. But sometimes, not all the proof in the world can make someone see or understand. Our job is to leave them in God’s hands and earnestly pray for them, whoever they may be.
Reader, if you have not, I humbly encourage you to trust in Jesus. For He alone can bring peace, hope, joy, eternal life, remove depression, and rescue you out of that dark, deep pit that you may have fallen into.
Jesus is coming! Sound the alarm!
Yours in the blessed hope,
