Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic lunar calendar and holds great significance in Islam. It is considered the holiest month for Muslims worldwide. Ramadan is a time for increased devotion, reflection, and worship. Muslims engage in additional prayers, recitation of the Quran, and acts of charity. Muslims also believe that the Quran, the holy book of Islam, was first revealed to the Prophet Muhammad. Overall, Ramadan is a sacred month for Muslims to strengthen their devotion to Allah.
Throughout Adventism, there has been a noticeable shift toward inclusivity, dialogue, and working on common ground with other faiths. These trends reflect the broader ecumenical movement being led by Pope Francis to emphasize unity among the different religious traditions. As part of an effort aimed at improving relations between the various faiths, Roman Catholics, Protestants, and even Seventh-day Adventists have been getting into the spirit of Ramadan.
On March 10, 2024, Adventist Mission, the global missionary branch of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, published a message to all Muslims wishing them Allah’s peace, mercy, and guidance and a blessed and prosperous Ramadan. The message said:
• “Assalamualaikum! Adventist Mission family of Seventh-day Adventists are happy to wish you, our Muslim brothers and sisters, to have a blessed Ramadan this 2024. Like the month of harvest reaps the seeds of your hard work, may this Ramadan reaps the seeds of your good deeds. Ramadan Kareem to all of you.” [1]
The image that accompanied the message said:
• “Ramadan Kareem (Blessed Ramadan).” [1]
• “Peace, Mercy and Guidance from Allah be with you and your family.” [1]
• “Warm Greetings from your friends, the Seventh-day Adventists.” [1]
When Seventh-day Adventists say “Ramadan Kareem,” or blessed Ramadan, they are actually obeying a commandment given in the Quran. We are giving credence and legitimacy to the writings of the Prophet Muhammad. We are basically saying that the Quran is on the same level of divine revelation as the Bible. This is what ecumenism does to us. This is what Pope Francis does every time he visits a Muslim nation for an interfaith celebration, and we are echoing his sentiments.
Ramadan is a false revelation that comes from a false book. Who gave Mohammad those visions? Jesus? Islam teaches that it is blasphemy to claim that Jesus is the Son of God. Muslims deny that Jesus is the Creator or that His death is necessary for our salvation. Not only are Muslims opposed to the central doctrines of Christianity, but they are also responsible for killing millions of Christians during their 1,400-year reign.
The stage is being set for the world religions to unite. The ecumenical movement is being used by Rome to revive the worship of the first beast in Revelation 13. And all of these ecumenical gestures wishing Muslims a blessed Ramadan are not designed to help us accomplish our work but instead to stop it.

1) Our SDA Pioneers would FREAK if they were able to see this in a Church Magazine & 2) Next it will be “Happy Halloween from your friends in the SDA Church”…..seriously I can see that coming one day sooner than later….
Wow! Thou shalt have no other gods before me. Will they wish a comforting message of unity to Baal followers next?
The Story above shows how much the once faithful City has become a Harlot. In Every Particular today the Seventh Day Adventist Church is a Harlot and an Image of the Papacy Itself. Like the Vatican it has its own Ecumenical Movement, with Ganoune Diop leading the Entire Trumpeter Section.
God has Forbidden in the Clearest Terms the World Churches Union with Rome, Islam, Hinduism and any Religion you could think of and Name Under the Sun.
Woe to the rebellious children, saith the LORD, that take counsel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit, that they may add sin to sin: 2 That walk to go down into Egypt, and have not asked at my mouth; to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh, and to trust in the shadow of Egypt! 3 Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame, and the trust in the shadow of Egypt your confusion. 4 For his princes were at Zoan, and his ambassadors came to Hanes. 5 They were all ashamed of a people that could not profit them, nor be an help nor profit, but a shame , and also a reproach. 6 The burden of the beasts of the south: into the land of trouble and anguish, from whence come the young and old lion, the viper and fiery flying serpent, they will carry their riches upon the shoulders of young asses, and their treasures upon the bunches of camels, to a people that shall not profit them. 7 For the Egyptians shall help in vain, and to no purpose: therefore have I cried concerning this, Their strength is to sit still.
8 ¶ Now go, write it before them in a table, and note it in a book, that it may be for the time to come for ever and ever: 9 That this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of the LORD: 10 Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits:
11 Get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.
12 Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel, Because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and stay thereon:
13 Therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking cometh suddenly at an instant.
14 And he shall break it as the breaking of the potters’ vessel that is broken in pieces; he shall not spare: so that there shall not be found in the
bursting of it a sherd to take fire from the hearth, or to take water withal out of the pit. 15 For thus saith the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel;
In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength: and ye would not. 16 But ye said, No; for we will flee
upon horses; therefore shall ye flee: and, We will ride upon the swift; therefore shall they that pursue you be swift. 17 One thousand shall flee at the
rebuke of one; at the rebuke of five shall ye flee:
Isaiah 30
Such a Confederacy with the Enemies of God will Result in Total Disaster, Destruction and Eternal Separation from God.
9 ¶ Associate yourselves, O ye people, and ye shall be broken in pieces; and give ear, all ye of far countries: gird yourselves, and ye shall be broken in pieces; gird yourselves, and ye shall be broken in pieces. 10 Take counsel together, and it shall come to nought; speak the word, and it shall not stand: for God is with us.
11 ¶ For the LORD spake thus to me with a strong hand, and instructed me that I should not walk in the way of this people, saying,12 Say ye not, A confederacy,
to all them to whom this people shall say, A confederacy; neither fear ye their fear, nor be afraid. 13 Sanctify the LORD of hosts himself; and let him be your fear, and let him be your dread. 14 And he shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offence to both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem. 15 And many among them shall stumble, and fall, and be broken, and be snared, and be taken.
Isaiah 8
Not to Unite With the World
There is to be no compromise with those who make void the law of God. It is not safe to rely upon them as counselors. Our testimony
is not to be less decided now than formerly; our real position is not to be cloaked in order to please the world’s great men. They may
desire us to unite with them and accept their plans, and may make propositions in regard to our course of action which may give the
enemy an advantage over us. “Say ye not, A confederacy, to all them to whom this people shall say, A confederacy” (Isaiah 8:12).
While we should not seek for controversy, and should not needlessly offend, we must present the truth clearly and decidedly, and stand
firm to what God has taught us in His Word.
2SM 356
Those who are at ease in Zion need to be aroused. Great is their accountability who bear the truth and yet feel no weight or burden for
souls. Oh, for men and women professing the truth to arouse, to take on the yoke of Christ, to lift His burdens. There are wanted those
who will not have merely a nominal interest but a Christlike interest, unselfish—an intense ardor that will not flag under difficulties or
cool because iniquity abounds.
2SM 367
Confederacies will increase in number and power as we draw nearer to the end of time. These confederacies will create opposing
influences to the truth, forming new parties of professed believers who will act out their own delusive theories. The apostasy will
increase. “Some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils” (1 Timothy 4:1). Men and women
have confederated to oppose the Lord God of heaven, and the church is only half awake to the situation. There needs to be much more
of prayer, much more of earnest effort, among professed believers.
Satanic agencies in human form will take part in this last great conflict to oppose the building up of the kingdom of God. And
heavenly angels in human guise will be on the field of action. The two opposing parties will continue to exist till the closing up of the
last great chapter in this world’s history.
2SM 368
We are called to save pagans, Catholics and Muslims too.
Just how to reach them is debatable, but we should try to reach them.
On this issue I disagree with Advent Messenger.
Patrick Rampy, you need thoroughly to read and understand the Church history and understand how the apostacy came into the Seventh Day Adventist Church and the General conference no longer works for God . General conference of SDA is a subsidiary of the Vatican and has a liason office of the United Nations therefore it works for Rome in preparation for the coming New world Order. All leaders of General conference are all Jesuits Including Ted Wilson and Religious liberty leader Ganoune Dioup. It’s very sad to see SDA Leaders wishing the Muslims a happy Ramadhan . When the Bible says in the book of 2 corinthians 6:14 how can Christ have a relation with Belial is there any relation with believer and unbeliever and many SDA’S are asleep instead of being vigilant.
