What The Church Teaches Now  

The church has changed its position over the course of time. Slowly and insidiously the Trinity doctrine and all its errors have found their way into the system of belief now professed by the SDA church. Our creed, as evidenced by the book Seventh-Day Adventists Believe, now accepts this abominable doctrine. We have accepted a doctrine that our pioneers would not have tolerated. Famous author and Andrews University seminary professor George Knight boldly admits this fact in the following statement found in MINISTRY magazine, Oct/1993 p. 10.   

"Most of the founders of Seventh-day Adventism would not be able to join the church today if they had to subscribe to the denomination's Fundamental Beliefs.” "More specifically, most would not be able to agree to belief number 2, which deals with the doctrine of the Trinity. For Joseph Bates the Trinity was an unscriptural doctrine, for James White it was that 'old Trinitarian absurdity,' and for M.E. Cornell it was a fruit of the great apostasy, along with such false doctrines as Sunday keeping and the immortality of the soul."   

"In like manner, most of the founders of Seventh-day Adventism would have trouble with fundamental belief number 4, which holds that Jesus is both eternal and truly God. For J.N. Andrews 'the Son of God...had God for His Father, and did, at some point in the eternity of the past, have beginning of days.' And E.J. Waggoner, of Minneapolis 1888 fame, penned in 1890 that 'there was a time when Christ proceeded forth and came from God...but that time was so far back in the days of eternity that to finite comprehension it is practically without beginning."   

"Neither could most of the leading Adventists have agreed with fundamental belief number 5, which implies the personhood of the Holy Spirit. Uriah Smith, for example, not only was anti-Trinitarian and semi-Arian, like so many of his colleagues, but also like them pictured the Holy Spirit as 'that divine mysterious emanation through which They [the Father and the Son] carry forward their great and infinite work.' On another occasion, Smith pictured the Holy Spirit as a 'divine influence' and not a 'person like the Father and the Son."   

This should be disturbing to every true SDA believer. Was Ellen White in error when she supported these pioneers or has Satan been busy undermining the basic foundations of the church? Even more disturbing are the few statements that have appeared in the book Evangelism that Ellen White supposedly wrote yet contradict everything else her words and actions taught. Yes, Satan has been very busy undermining God's church and, indeed, God's last day prophet as well. He has done over time that which would never have been allowed by a single generation.  

 Is this meant to be an attack on the church or its leaders? Absolutely not. It is only a wake-up call. "THE ENEMY IS UPON US." It is time for God's people to stop feeding on anything but God's Word. Study this out in full, prayerfully, and then ask for God's guidance on how to oppose the power of Rome that even now assaults the church. Yes, this is an attack by Roman Catholicism.  

 On page 11 of the little book called "Handbook For Today’s Catholic" written by the Roman Catholic church, it states: "The mystery of the Trinity is the central doctrine of Catholic Faith. Upon it are based all the other teachings of the Church."  Yes, you read it right. The central doctrine of the Catholic church has found its way into God's remnant church.  

The "Omega of Apostasies" is upon us. This doctrine undermines everything that is of God and all of the pillars of our church. What will you do? Do you have the strength to defend the honor of Christ's bride against the attack of the mother of harlots? If not, then who will? It will be those who stand for truth though the heavens fall. It will be God's remnant who will stand fearlessly in defense of His Church. May God richly bless you and give you strength as you stand for truth against the flowing tide of heresy that threatens to wash away God's final fortress in an evil ungodly world. I highly recommend the book High Treason that clearly reveals the truth in light of our time in prophecy.
