Spirit mediums attended both the pagan ceremony and the ecumenical service.
Gabriel Boric had only been in office for a day when he organized a pagan ceremony at the Presidential Palace in Chile. On Saturday, March 12, 2022, Gabriel Boric began his second day as President by performing a pagan rite with members of the Yagán, Lican Antai, Mapuche Pewenche, Rapa Nui, Mapuche Lafkenche, Diaguita, Füta Warria, and Colla indigenous faiths. [1] Later that day, President Gabriel Boric attended an interfaith prayer and worship service with Adventists, Roman Catholics, Evangelicals, and indigenous spirit mediums.

In his tweet above, President Gabriel Boric expresses his plans to collaborate and dialogue with witch doctors, spirit mediums, and those involved in ancestral worship as part of the new “intercultural work” and “relationship between the government and the original (indigenous) peoples.” His tweet says:
“We started the day together with our government team and ancestral authorities of native people from all over Chile. Generating intercultural work and a new relationship between the government and the original peoples is vital for the construction of a just and dignified Chile” (Twitter).
Later that day President Gabriel Boric and members of his cabinet attended an interfaith prayer and worship service in Santiago’s Roman Catholic cathedral. [2] The same spirit and message that were present when President Gabriel Boric participated in the indigenous pagan worship ceremony were carried over to the Christian churches’ ecumenical service.
Las palabras de Sandra Ancamil, profesora mapuche, dichas hoy en la Oración Ecuménica por Chile y su Nuevo Gobierno, reflejan nuestro sentir. Juntas y juntos construiremos una convivencia más fraterna con total respeto hacia nuestras diferencias. pic.twitter.com/0ol7T69MSN

In the post above, President Gabriel Boric shows part of a video from the ecumenical service held in the Catholic Cathedral and quotes one of the spirit mediums from a Chilean indigenous tribe. The post says:
“The Words of Sandra Ancamil, a Mapuche teacher, expressed our feelings today at the Ecumenical Prayer for Chile and its New Government. Together we will build a more fraternal coexistence with total respect for our differences” (Twitter).
This is the same kind of fraternal coexistence that Pope Francis has been promoting for years among the various religious communities. The message is that we are all brothers, which means that we must respect the various belief systems of all churches and indigenous faiths. And these were the sentiments expressed at this Christian interfaith gathering. Catholics, apostate Protestants, Adventists, Jews, Muslims, and witch doctors all gathered to celebrate their differences.

The interfaith service took place at the Roman Catholic Metropolitan Cathedral in Santiago, Chile on Saturday, March 12, 2022, at 11:00 a.m. The representatives of the different denominations gathered included: Evangelicals, Lutherans, Adventists, Roman Catholics, Jews, and Muslims, as well as spirit mediums from the indigenous faiths.

The highest authorities of Chile’s executive, legislative, and judicial powers attended, including ministers of the state, deputies, cabinet members, and the different commanders-in-chief of the Armed Forces. The President of the Chilean Episcopal Conference, Rome’s highest governing authority in Chile, Cardinal Celestino Aós, Archbishop of Santiago, presided over the ceremony. Once again, Rome was in control.
In his speech, Cardinal Celestino Aós spoke of the need to “seek a Chile where we all live together, respecting each other, listening to each other, dialoguing, collaborating” and “fostering a mystique of brotherhood” while building “a more efficient social organization.” [5] [6] The Prayer to Saint Francis of Assis was sung at the end of the ecumenical service.

Spiritualism is becoming more visible within the ecumenical movement. There is no doubt about this. God’s word tells us that we cannot retain a good relationship with Him while forming alliances with spiritualism and witch doctors. God is very clear on this:
“The alliances made by the Israelites [Adventists] with their heathen neighbors [Catholics and witch doctors, spirit mediums] resulted in the loss of their identity as God’s peculiar people. They became leavened by the evil practices of those with whom they formed forbidden alliances. Affiliation with worldlings caused them to lose their first love, and their zeal for God’s service. The advantages they sold themselves to gain, brought only disappointment, and caused the loss of many souls” (Review and Herald, August 4, 1904).
These associations and alliances will lead to the loss of our true mission and message, as well the loss of “many souls.” It is impossible to participate in these spiritualistic worship services, especially on the Lord’s Day, Saturday, without jeopardizing the teachings contained in the Three Angels’ Message. How do we call people out of Babylon, which is confusion, if we’re celebrating their confusion (differences) with them?

In view of the demonic activities that are occurring in the modern ecumenical movement, we urgently need to reform our evangelistic imperatives and relationships with the other churches. In the framework of today’s ecumenical movement, which is falling deeper into spiritualism every day, the fullness of the Seventh-day Adventist faith cannot exist. This, according to God, will lead us astray:
“The experience of Israel will be the experience of all who go to the world for strength, turning away from the living God. Those who forsake the mighty One, the source of all strength, and affiliate with worldlings, placing on them their dependence, become weak in moral power, as are those in whom they trust.” (Review and Herald, August 4, 1904).
Adventism is facing a major challenge on a global scale. More than ever before, we must consider the best way to preserve the faith while responding to the world’s spiritual needs. This means transmitting Revelation 14:6-12 to every nation, kindred, tongue, and people without hesitation or timidity. Theologically, the Adventist movement and Rome’s ecumenical movement are diametrically opposed. How can we embrace the Vatican’s call to unite into one brotherhood while ignoring the truths of our faith, which we have promised to preserve and proclaim? Our failure to carry out our mission by embracing spiritualism and the ecumenical movement’s errors dishonor God’s name and lead to His rejection:
“God comes with entreaties and assurances to those who are making mistakes. He seeks to show them their error, and lead them to repentance. But if they refuse to humble their hearts before him, if they strive to exalt themselves above him, he must speak to them in judgment. No semblance of nearness to God, no assertion of connection with him, will be accepted from those who persist in dishonoring him by leaning upon the arm of worldly power” (Review and Herald, August 4, 1904).

We know the shaking must happen to shake out all those who are wolves in sheep’s clothing. It sure does make it hard to witness to people when this is going on. EGW was right when she said it would be very difficult in the last days to witness to the world.
Bonjour,en effet il est écrit,que ce que nous n’avons pas fait en tant de paix,il faudra le faire en tant de guerre,et la tache est grande.Que Dieu nous vienne en aide.
Dear Andy Roman, your analysis is very wrong. The multi-religious event at the inauguration of President Boric was not ecumenical, it was not to approve hegemonies, nor to reconcile doctrines, but rather it was to point out to the secular, agnostic, atheist Chilean humanist world that faith and religious beliefs exist in Chile. and they deserve respect. The Adventist presence in these events has the objective of showing the new government and the Constitutional Convention that we need to consolidate Freedom of conscience, Freedom of worship, the preferential right of parents to educate their children and Conscientious objection for religious reasons, in all state acts and in the New Constitution that is being written these days. The problem is that the 155 Chileans who are drafting the Constitution are mostly agnostics, atheists, anti-religious, just like President Boric. This is why Ellen White’s advice is clear: “ Our work is not to make a raid on the Government but to prepare a people to stand in the great day of the Lord. The fewer attacks we make on authorities and powers, the more work will we do for God.{Spirit of Prophecy Counsels Relating To Church-State Relationships, SPCCSR 31.2}. While the truth must be defended, this work is to be done in the spirit of Jesus. If God’s people work without peace and love, they work at a great loss, an irretrievable loss. {SPCCSR 31.3}. If we wish to convince unbelievers that we have the truth that sanctifies the soul and transforms the character, we must not vehemently charge them with their errors. Thus we force them to the conclusion that the truth does not make us kind and courteous, but coarse and rough. {SPCCSR 32.2}. So Andy, your conclusions are out of context. I suggest you get to know the sociocultural and political context that Chilean Adventists are experiencing. The Adventist evangelizing mission and its institutions (University, and 26 schools, 1 Clinic and Nuevo Tiempo Radio-TV) in Chile are threatened by the worldly radical humanist atheism-agnostic, it is not Roman Catholicism that is morally discredited. Please read the Latinobarometro, https://www.latinobarometro.org/lat.jsp and you will see that Chileans’ trust in the Catholic Church has dropped from 72% in 1995 to 31% in 2021. Therefore there is no ecumenical threat in Chile. For the Christian religions and the Adventist Church in Chile, the priority is to ensure that religious freedom is respected (their temples are not burned) and that rights are guaranteed. I ask you to pray for this.
It`d seem that Boric is living up to his name – Acid. O_O…
