The seventh day adventist church is the true church It is very plain and easy to see from the bible . It is also easy to see from the bible that all other churches have fallen and are babylon . But as the Adventist message is from God also like other churches there are wheat and tares in the members . why the Seventh day adventist general conference is no longer the voice of God
It is true that God has set up the General conference of seventh day Adventist to organize, to set up churches, to appoint pastors and missionaries. But is the general conference the voice of God ? Five reasons
1 the same message has been repeated over and over again and no new light has been given from the general conference .
2 The Seventh day adventist message which is the only true church on earth has been watering down the message . Especially whe we compare how the Adventist pioneers preached the message it is not given its full force far from that. It is a very weakened Adventist message and i think God is not pleased at all and very angry
3 The health message, only the basics are taught. Be venetarian, exercise, sleep well, get some fresh air is almost all that is taught as health message . This is very sad .
When we compare with Harvey Kellog books they were filled with incredible natural health practices such as cold therapy which boosts the immune system as nothing else can .
why the Seventh day adventist general conference is no longer the voice of God In fact some true doctors today call this the remedy for incurables . When nothing else works, then give the person very cold and hot treatment. It wakes up the organs and can make someone almost dead live again . It boosts the blood flow and the immune system
4 Allowing gangsters and thugs in the church .
I love Adventist television i watch it everyday . But why are they now allowing people who talk like thugs on christian television ? What is going on ? Could it be they are becoming blind to the truth ? No christian can talk proud, with unloving, uncaring voice filled with selfishness and filled with self importance . If these people can talk on christian television , why can't they invite Satan too ? Adventist conference and churches are becoming lukewarm why the Seventh day adventist general conference is no longer the voice of God
Isn't what makes a christian his resemblance to Jesus ? Qualitie ssuch as humility, gentleness, kindness, honesty, sincerity ? But these people who are invited are proud, selfsish, uncaring, unliving. They have nothing of Jesus but the name . Adventist general conference is sleeping and not giving the warning
5 Refusing independent ministry to do the work together . It is interesting to see that nominal Adventist have always refused independent ministries as if they were a plague . I remember when i was just baptised. A few week after i went to church with the lobely couple who brought me into the church. There was a Jamaican sister there with a loud speaker in the parking lot.
The church members made me see her as if she was crazy and inside the church she game me a tape. They told me to be careful with those messages . Looking back i see that they were Branch Davidians or Jeff Pippenger or other independent ministries. Some of their messages are not biblical , but at least they continue studying and many of their messages are from the bible . Seventh day Adventist general conference should not sleep on its laurels as these laurels can be taken away
In fact it is very possible that God sees them as those who continue to study and seek new light from the bible and the regular Seventh day adventist general conference as sleeping and totally regurgating the same messages over and over . why the Seventh day adventist general conference is no longer the voice of God
When i watch Adventist television which i love i and think is amazing . I tell myself but don't they see that the same message is repeated over and over again . Don't they have new light new studies to do ?
The bible is full of prophecies we do not know and understand in Zecharaiah, Joel, Amos ; Ezequiel. Why not give more light to the people . I remember in the great controversy Ellen g White said when the christians left europe for America. The pastor on the shore told them
Continue studying the bible as new truth will unfold. And we see one reason why babylon fell is that is was satisfied with the light it had and became bland and dead spiritually . Yet the truth is found in Ellen g White writings. Seventh day adventist conference is not seeking new light
Here we see that she says the general conference of seventh day Adventist needs to be listened to in matters of organisation , but spiritually it is no longer the voice of God . why the Seventh day adventist general conference is no longer the voice of God tries to please people and countries and leaders and organisations instead of preaching the plain truth of the Word of God .
ELLEN G WHITE QUOTES
“It has been a necessity to organize union conferences, that the General Conference shall not exercise dictation over all the separate conferences. The power vested in the Conference is not to be centered in one man, or two men, or six men; there is to be a council of men over the separate divisions. why the Seventh day adventist general conference is no longer the voice of God
In the work of God no kingly authority is to be exercised by any human being, or by two or three. The representatives of the Conference, as it has been carried with authority for the last twenty years, shall be no longer justified in saying, ‘The temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord are we.’ The men in positions of trust have not been carrying the work wisely” (Manuscript 26,
1903).
Yet we hear that the voice of the Confernce is the voice of God. Every time I have heard this, I have thought that it was almost blasphemy. The voice of the Conference ought to be the voice of God, but it is not, because some in connection with it are not men of faith and prayer; they are not men of elevated principle Sermons and Talks, vol. 2, p. 159.
That these men should stand in a sacred place, to be as the voice of God to the people, as we once believed the General Conference to be—that is past (7 1888 Materials, p. 1745
The enemy of souls has sought to bring in the supposition that a great reformation was to take place among Seventh-day Adventists, and that this reformation would consist in giving up the doctrines which stand as the pillars of our faith, and engaging in a process of reorganization. Were this reformation to take place, what would result?
The principles of truth that God in His wisdom has given to the remnant church, would be discarded. Our religion would be changed. The fundamental principles that have sustained the work for the last fifty years would be accounted as error. A new organization would be established. Books of a new order would be written. A system of intellectual philosophy would be introduced. why the Seventh day adventist general conference is no longer the voice of God
The founders of this system would go into the cities, and do a wonderful work. The Sabbath, of course, would be lightly regarded, as also the God who created it. Nothing would be allowed to stand in the way of the new movement. The leaders would teach that virtue is better than vice, but God being removed, they would place their dependence on human power, which, without God, is worthless. Their foundation would be built on the sand, and storm and tempest would sweep away the structure Selected Messages, vol. 1, pp. 204-205
“It has been some years since I have considered the General Conference as the voice of God.” – Manuscript Releases 17, p. 216, 1898; Last Day Events, p. 50.3
“That these men should stand in a sacred place, to be as the voice of God to the people, as we once believed the General Conference to be—THAT IS PAST.” – Ellen White, The General Conference Bulletin, April 3, 1901, p. 25; Last Day Events, p. 50.
“I do not find rest in spirit. Scene after scene is presented in symbols before me, and I find no rest until I begin to write out the matter. I have not slept since two o’clock. I think we will institute at least once each day a season of prayer for the Lord to set things in order at the center of the work.
Matters there are being shaped so that every other institution is following in the same course. And the General Conference is itself becoming corrupted with wrong sentiments and principles. In the working up of plans the same principles are manifest that have controlled matters at Battle Creek for quite a length of time.” – Ellen White, Letter 55, September 19, 1895, par. 2 why the Seventh day adventist general conference is no longer the voice of God
“I have been shown that the Jewish nation were not brought suddenly into their condition of thought and practice. From generation to generation they were working on false theories, carrying out principles that were opposed to the truth, and combining with their religion thoughts and plans that were the product of human minds; human inventions were made supreme.” – Ellen White, Letter 55, September 19, 1895, par. 3
“At times, when a small group of men entrusted with the general management of the work have, in the name of the General Conference, sought to carry out unwise plans and to restrict God’s work, I have said that I could no longer regard the voice of the General Conference,
represented by these few men, as the voice of God. But this is not saying that the decisions of a General Conference composed of an assembly of duly appointed, representative men from all parts of the field, should not be respected.
God has ordained that the representatives of His church from all parts of the earth, when assembled in a General Conference, shall have authority. The error that some are in danger of committing, is in giving to the mind and judgment of one man, or of a small group of men, the full measure of authority and influence that God
has vested in His church, in the judgment and voice of the General Conference assembled to plan for the prosperity and advancement of His work.” – Ellen White, Testimonies for the Church, vol. 9, 260.2, 1909; General Conference Bulletin, May 31, 1909, Art. A, par. 12; Ms38a, p.13 (published three times in 1909, once in 1915, once in 1949, once in 1992 with a slant to it in Last Day Events.
Manuscript 114, July 1894, Diary about Willie White regarding O.A. Olsen, Granville, Australia
"I have had conversation with W. C. White. He was presenting before me the necessity of our people heeding the voice of the General Conference. Then I said, “WCW, it is time you should understand that, [notwithstanding] the opinion that has prevailed, the General Conference so-called is no longer the voice of God.
It has become a strange voice, and they are building strange fire. God does not speak through them. The work that is being done in the General Conference is a strange work. Elder Olsen is not in the light. Had he stood in the light, he would not have allowed us to be separated from him and come to this country. why the Seventh day adventist general conference is no longer the voice of God
He has stood in a divided position in reference to the spirit brought from Minneapolis. He let the burdens fall upon me that never should have come upon me. Had he stood to his post of duty like a man after God’s own heart, the clouds would have broken and light would have come in clear and bright. But his half-and-half position was acting out the Aaron, and God was displeased. We were needed at the heart of the work all the years that we have been away from America.
There is being done in America, by the General Conference, that which the churches in the conferences know nothing about. You were not wanted in their councils. They wanted to get you out of the way. Elder Olsen was not fully in all their projects at first, but they—Harmon Lindsay and A. R. Henry—deceived him. Elder Olsen has betrayed the cause of God.
He is not in union with Elder Ellet Waggoner, neither is he in harmony with A. T. Jones. He is yoked up and united with the men who are working at cross-purposes with God, and the churches are becoming leavened with the spirit that prevails at Battle Creek. why the Seventh day adventist general conference is no longer the voice of God
W. C. White appeared astonished when I told him that he was not wanted in Battle Creek councils and was crowded out, and meetings were held that he should have been notified to attend. But they took special pains that he should not know of these meetings. Elder Olsen could have wholly changed these things if he had stood free in God,
bravely opposed to wrong, but he yoked up as a true yoke-fellow with A. R. Henry, who has carried things with a high hand. [They] would control everything upon the Pacific Coast if they could get their grasp upon it. I am instructed that the Lord will let these men have all they have worked for, and then will He punish them and mark their future." – Ellen White, Ms 114-1894, p. 1-3
