Just when you think that the duplicity, posturing, and pretense at the 61st General Conference Session couldn’t have gotten any worse, it does. A private interfaith lunch took place during the 61st General Conference Session that was not announced, broadcast, live streamed, or made public until after the session had ended and everyone had left. Was this just a coincidence or was it done for good reasons?
This luncheon was held on June 9, 2022, according to Adventist News Network. However, the information about this event was not released until June 16, 2022, long after the General Conference Session had concluded. Notice what was reported in the article titled “Refusing to Be Silent in the Face of Evil.” Coincidentally, the church was silent about this ecumenical lunch while the sessions were being held:
“On Thursday afternoon, at the 61st GC Session in St. Louis, Missouri, PARL hosted a luncheon to strengthen relationships between PARL directors and engage with public officials and key religious leaders.” [1]
The purpose of this luncheon was to “strengthen relationships” and “engage” with “key religious leaders.” Who were these “key religious leaders”? These men were agents of Rome who are fervently advocating for the unification of the churches. These were the ambassadors from Babylon that were being hosted during a special lunch during the General Conference Session. Adventist News Network continued reporting:
“Special guests who were present and acknowledged at the luncheon, representing some of the meaningful connections PARL has made with influential representatives across the globe were the Secretary of the Global Christian Forum Dr. Casely Essamuah, Salvation Army Representative Colonel Kenneth Johnson, Baptist World Alliance Representative Rev. Everton Jackson.” [1]
Dr. Casely Essamuach (left), is a special guest both at the Adventist General Conference Session and at the Vatican.
Here is Dr. Casely Essamuach, the Secretary of the Global Christian Forum and special guest at the 61st General Conference Session in St. Louis. He is an agent of Rome that is committed to working towards “global Christian unity.” His main emphasis is “focused on fostering Christian unity and encouraging churches to move beyond their doctrinal differences.” [2] Dr. Casely Essamuach, who also serves as a special guest at the Vatican, is the same actor who took part in the ecumenical lunch that the 61st General Conference Session hosted.
General (top leader) of the Salvation Army, Brian Peddle (left) appointed Colonel Kenneth Johnson, special guest at the Adventist General Conference Session, as the National Chief Secretary of the Salvation Army.
Kenneth Johnson was the next person named who attended the ecumenical lunch. Colonel Kenneth Johnson is the National Chief Secretary of The Salvation Army. [3] He was appointed to the Salvation Army’s national headquarters by General Brian Peddle, the top leader in the Salvation Army. [4] The Salvation Army is committed to “worship, work, and witness together” with other faiths and has engaged both Seventh-day Adventists and Roman Catholics in ecumenical dialogue. [5]
Everton Jackson, red circle, is pictured here just 6 months ago with leaders from the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity.
Everton Jackson also attended the special ecumenical lunch with Ted Wilson and Ganoune Diop in St. Louis. He is the Director of Integral Mission for the Baptist World Alliance. [6] They have had several special ecumenical encounters with Rome in order to foster greater unity. [7] In fact, Everton Jackson met with representatives of the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity, a Vatican-led organization, just six months ago in order to “find ways to work together across their divisions to offer a common witness to their Lord Jesus Christ.” [8] Everton Jackson is the “Ganoune Diop” for the Baptist World Alliance. He is working to end divisions among the churches and is seeking closer unity with Rome.
These were the agents of Rome who were invited as “special guests” to the 61st General Conference Sessions in an effort to “strengthen relations” and “engage” with them. Ted Wilson was at this exclusive luncheon. The General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists brought religious leaders from other churches who are pushing the Christian world towards Rome, and Ted Wilson had lunch with these individuals.
This happened on Thursday. Then on Saturday, Ted Wilson gave a sermon on the perils of ecumenism. What? Is he for real? Are you kidding me? Ted Wilson ought to have saved his sermon and delivered that message while having lunch with the Babylonian ambassadors on Thursday. He didn’t, though. Instead, he emphasized to the global delegates and members of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in his sermon on Saturday the importance of rejecting ecumenism.
Inviting and joining the ecumenical family on Thursday, as well as providing them with a special lunch, and then preaching against ecumenism on Saturday was completely insincere and dishonest. His words on Saturday were a charade. It was a con, and the conservative members of the church fell for the bait, hook, line, and sinker, because it was all for show and to appease them.
We have reached the point in Adventism where we are feeding the ever-growing ecumenical family lunch during a General Conference World Session. While the ambassadors from Babylon abound in our events, while the Vatican flag is being flown by the session’s organizers, make no mistake about it: our precious faith is being theologically adjusted to accommodate these agents of Rome accordingly.
Adventist News Network said the following about Ted Wilson’s remarks during this ecumenical lunch:
“Ted N.C. Wilson stated, ‘What a privilege for Seventh-Day Adventists and other Christians to be epistles of Christ, representatives of the highest Authority of the universe.’ He later elaborated that faithful service and representation of Christ involves the constant battle for religious freedom, justice, and liberty of conscience.” [9]
This is what he said to those who were present at the ecumenical lunch. Ted Wilson said it was a privilege to meet with “other Christians” and “representatives of the highest Authority of the universe.” That’s not what Ted Wilson said in his Sabbath sermon two days later. He warned against the dangers of ecumenism. How do you praise the leaders of ecumenism on Thursday and then warn God’s people about the ecumenical movement with a straight face on Sabbath morning? Interestingly enough, Ted Wilson was given an award at this lunch by Ganoune Diop.
Open your eyes. Ganoune Diop and Ted Wilson are simply using religious liberty as a gimmick to cover up their ecumenically-based theology and activities. This allows them to reinforce their false notions of religious unity under the guise of defending religious liberty and speaking out against evil. They called this ecumenical lunch “Refusing to Be Silent in the Face of Evil.”
Seventh-day Adventist church leaders are in fact silent in the face of evil. There is such a thing as truth, and there is such a thing as theological error. Error and false doctrine do exist. Yet, not one word is said about this during these ecumenical encounters. Truth has been minimized, ignored, and rejected, while error has been allowed to increase unchecked.
How can we publicly speak out against ecumenism while also supporting, praising, and giving a platform to the movement’s leaders behind closed doors during a General Conference Session? It is not possible to bring in these ecumenical agents who are pushing the entire Christian world towards Rome to our most significant gathering of Seventh-day Adventists. Their work conflicts with the mission of the Remnant people. Why wasn’t this discussed with the world delegates? Why weren’t they allowed to vote on this? Why were they kept in the dark?
It is truly shocking to work behind closed doors to forge a stronger bond of fellowship with the ecumenical movement and then caution the global Seventh-day Adventist family about the perils of ecumenism. All this transpired within the span of three days at the 61st General Conference Session. I get the impression that some General Conference leaders view the Seventh-day Adventist church’s global delegates as little babies in a nursery who are only used when needed and quickly discarded when not.
If this wasn’t enough, Adventist News Network goes on to describe the new emphasis of Ganoune Diop’s work at the Public Affairs and Religious Liberty Department (PARL):
“PARL is also an active advocate for public policy issues. Several issues include health, education, environmental conservation, women and children’s rights, the rights of prisoners, aid, and development.” [9]
The work of religious liberty has just been redefined. Social justice has just replaced our long-standing work of calling for religious liberty so that we can preach the Third Angel’s Message. There is a reason why within Adventism we now have the social justice gospel, the rainbow gospel, the green climate change gospel, the feminist gospel, and the ecumenical gospel. All this replaces the everlasting gospel of Revelation 14:6-12. And today, the church serves the “new” attitudes and the “new” policies first and the historical faith second, if at all!
“O My people! Those who lead you cause you to err, And destroy the way of your paths.” Isaiah 3:12.

A backsliding church closed their eyes to the signs of the times. God did not forsake them, or suffer His faithfulness to fail; but they departed from Him, and separated themselves from His love. As they refused to comply with the conditions, His promises were not fulfilled to them. – GC 315.4
Unless the church, which is now being leavened with her own backsliding, shall repent and be converted, she will eat of the fruit of her own doing, until she shall abhor herself. When she resists the evil and chooses the good, when she seeks God with all humility and reaches her high calling in Christ, standing on the platform of eternal truth and by faith laying hold upon the attainments prepared for her, she will be healed. She will appear in her God-given simplicity and purity, separate from earthly entanglements, showing that the truth has made her free indeed. Then her members will indeed be the chosen of God, His representatives.—Testimonies for the Church 8:247-251 (April 21, 1903). – LDE 60.2
I am filled with sadness when I think of our condition as a people. The Lord has not closed heaven to us, but our own course of continual backsliding has separated us from God. Pride, covetousness, and love of the world have lived in the heart without fear of banishment or condemnation. Grievous and presumptuous sins have dwelt among us. And yet the general opinion is that the church is flourishing, and that peace and spiritual prosperity are in all her borders. – RH November 18, 1909
The Lord hath a controversy with his people, and, although in his great mercy he bear long with them, yet if they persist in living in transgression of his law, they will not stand in the day of his rebuke. He has seen the backsliding and iniquity of his professed people. He has noted the unbelief, the hypocrisy, the pride, the selfishness, the disobedience to his law, and he will punish for these things. God cannot be in harmony with the people who will not obey his commandments who are wickedly departing from his precepts and by their example of disobedience at leading their children and their neighbor in the way of transgression. The professed church of Christ is strengthening the hand of sinners in their evil work by making void through their traditions, the commandment of Jehovah. – ST March 12, 1894
The church that holds to the word of God is irreconcilably separated from Rome. Protestants were once thus apart from this great church of apostasy, but they have approached more nearly to her, and are still in the path of reconciliation to the Church of Rome. Rome never changes. Her principles have not altered in the least. She has not lessened the breach between herself and Protestants; they have done all the advancing. But what does this argue for the Protestantism of this day? It is the rejection of Bible truth which makes men approach to infidelity. It is a backsliding church that lessens the distance between itself and the Papacy. – ST February 19, 1894
Our leadership is not leading, but misleading if this is true about a luncheon being served to our opponents who represent Rome by our 61 General Conference session. We were told that we would be standing alone in the time of the end and we are told that we are to gather warmth from the coldness of others. To me that means recognizing what is going wrong and stand even stronger for our faith till Jesus comes!
I agree. And I really appreciate the fact that you are quoting the testimony of Jesus. He is the Word, the way, the truth, and the light.
Absolutely shocking and saddening. I’m at a loss of words. 😢
As shocking as it is, it does not surprise me! EGW warned us that it looks like the church is about to fall, but, it does not!!! True, we are in for a bumpy ride. Who ever said that we would go through to the end as an organized church body? no one! Not even EGW. The shaking must take place. Ted Wilson and Ganoune Diop are being tested as we speak. We are all being tested as we speak. We are not to put our trust and our salvation into the hands of no man, only Jesus Christ.
These things are going to take place. I would hope and pray that during this meeting that Ted Wilson and/or Ganoune Diop may have given these people a copy of The Great Controversary! We do not know what was said and done during this luncheon. What better time to witness to those who are in Babylon. Let’s wait and hear what Ted Wilson and Ganoune Diop have to say about this meeting. Then, and only then, can we make a correct judgement of what is going on.
I totally agree. We need to get the rest of the story!
I agree.
That is absolutely correct,appreciate your response! We still have to pray for our SDA Christian leaders!
“Jesus is the Way the Truth and Life”! Praise to His Name! Our probation has not closed yet!
Agree. I believe the judgment for the living, which begins at the HOUSE OF GOD, could be going on now. We will not know when our names come up.
It behooves us to get the message of warning out to the SDA church now. The testimony of Jesus states very plainly that Eze. 9 will be literally fulfilled.
The church must be purified in order to receive the latter rain and give the loud cry to the world to come out of Babylon.
What makes you think you will ever hear wilson or diop telling the truth about what was said at that meeting?
I agree, however, why was it necessary to conceal this meeting from those at the GC. And why hasn’t Ted Wilson shared this meeting with us rather than us hearing it from a third party.
Totally agree with you. Sometimes some sectors of the church judge too quickly without having a complete picture. I read some horrible comments in another article. The article said those phrases:
1) “Let’s not pretend Ted Wilson is unaware of the information contained in the book “Let Mutual Love Continue.”
My answer: Maybe Ted has not read the book. Is a busy person and maybe is more worried about preaching the gospel and distributing the great controversy than reading this book. Moreover, maybe Casely Essamuach give him for the first time as a gift. I use the word maybe because I cannot affirm with infallibility anything. But the tone of the article is like you are infallible and know everything. Let me tell you an experience: when I was in a youth congress in Poland many years ago, at the opening ceremony were invited the major of the city and other personalities, like two catholic priests. Then they received an Adventist book as a gift. So this events that you call ecumenical without base, can be an opportunity to spread our message.
2) “the leadership’s unwillingness to be open and transparent about their ecumenical activities”. I think they are being totally transparent in the sense that they don’t have had this lunch in secret. If taking lunch with a person from a different faith is an ecumenical activity I dare that even the writer of this article is ecumenical because at some point in his life he has shared a meal with friends or relatives from other faiths.
Finally, i will share a quote from the comments that say: He knew he had an ecumenical lunch ahead but at the same time portrayed himself to be on the side of the church. I can’t trust him anymore.”
I repeat that is not an ecumenical lunch because they are not signing any agreement that violates our faith. This person is telling in other words that Ted Wilson is showing two faces. I tell this person that if Ted Wilson was really ecumenical, he wouldn’t advise us in his preachings about the emergent church or ecumenism and not distribute the great controversy as he has done and the general conference is planning to do in the following years. Please think before writing some kind of comments. You are not infallible.
You are correct, none of us is infallible. But we do have the sure word of infallible testimony of Jesus that reveals that there is apostasy in our
leadership.
Amen! I agree. There are so many people out there that you think that are Saven Day Adventist, who reporting these things, and they are not. A lot of Shepherd Rods are out there who is trying to pull the church apart. Be careful what you listen to and read. Remember! There are sheep in wolf clothing. Be careful! Stay in prayer and look to Jesus, not man.
The Roman Catholic church brag that the “central pillar” of their faith is the trinity. When the SDA church accepted the trinity doctrine a backsliding SDA church started snow balling downward. And the snowball continues to roll down hill faster and faster.
The central pillar of the Catholic Church is Mariology. The worship of Mary.
As a SDA I believe in the Godhead.
“Go baptize them in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.” Matthew 28
Amen!
Amen & Amen.
Your wrong.
“ The mystery of the trinity is the central doctrine of the Catholic faith. Upon it are based all the other teachings of the church.
Handbook for Today’s Catholic “, page 16
Exactly my sister it’s true
I agree. But we don’t believe in the catholic trinity, and it was wrong to introduce confusion in our SDA beliefs. The differences are very subtle. The
early SDA’s were not trinitarian, but of course they believed the Biblical view of the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit.
Amen Alan. Trinity is a false doctrine.
True. They also changed the 3 angels logo and replaced it with 3 wavy lines (THE ECUMENICAL LOGO). Undoubtedly the leadership is in apostasy. “The
leaders of my people do cause them to err” The apostasy goes back to 1888, when the leadership rejected the message of righteousness by faith. But we
still pray for them.
There was no sin in Hezekiah hosting the ambassadors from Babylon. Mrs. White states:
The visit of these messengers from the ruler of a far-away land gave Hezekiah an opportunity to extol the living God. How easy it would have been for him to tell them of God, the upholder of all created things, through whose favor his own life had been spared when all other hope had fled! What momentous transformations might have taken place had these seekers after truth from the plains of Chaldea been led to acknowledge the supreme sovereignty of the living God!
Here was the sin: But pride and vanity took possession of Hezekiah’s heart, and in self-exaltation he laid open to covetous eyes the treasures with which God had enriched His people. The king “showed them the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and all the house of his armor, and all that was found in his treasures: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah showed them not.” Isaiah 39:2. Not to glorify God did he do this, but to exalt himself in the eyes of the foreign princes. He did not stop to consider that these men were representatives of a powerful nation that had not the fear nor the love of God in their hearts, and that it was imprudent to make them his confidants concerning the temporal riches of the nation.
God sent the ambassadors as a test: The visit of the ambassadors to Hezekiah was a test of his gratitude and devotion. The record says, “Howbeit in the business of the ambassadors of the princes of Babylon, who sent unto him to inquire of the wonder that was done in the land, God left him, to try him, that He might know all that was in his heart.” 2 Chronicles 32:31. Had Hezekiah improved the opportunity given him to bear witness to the power, the goodness, the compassion, of the God of Israel, the report of the ambassadors would have been as light piercing darkness. But he magnified himself above the Lord of hosts. He “rendered not again according to the benefit done unto him; for his heart was lifted up.”
We don’t know in what manner the luncheon was conducted so let us not be quick to judge.
Well said.
Do you really believe that these leaders do not know what true SDA believe about the anti-Christ power?
Sir, You Couldn’t Be more Wrong. The Bible and Spirit of Prophecy Forbid Such Ecumenical Associations. It is What makes the the Worldwide Organized SDA Church a Harlot. [ Read Isaiah Chapters 1-4 ] Also all those Who are Involved in Such Confederacies against God will be Broken in Pieces. [ Isaiah 8 and 8:9-12 ] Ted Wilson Awaits the Wrath of a Holy and Just God, as will all Ministers and Members who Give the SDA Church its Support by Membership and Tithes.
Thanks for posting this…
Ted Wilson and Mr. Diop probably “did not stop to consider that these men were representatives of a powerful nation that had not the fear nor the love of God in their hearts, and that it was imprudent to make them his confidants concerning the temporal riches of the nation.”. In other words, or anything that pertains to our church: temporal or spiritual.

The article, in spanish
How closely we are following the steps made by OT Israel.
Just before they crossed over the Jordan into their promised land, they too got embroiled in ecumenical relationships which resulted in the destruction of the people.
Amos 9:9-10 – God is doing His work! And the watchmen must continue to do theirs! No retreat no surrender!
By God’s grace, I, like Daniel, have purposed in my heart that I’m going through with Christ!
Sad to see but not surprising.
Blow the trumpet trusty watchman!
The fact that Ted Wilson gave a sermon against doing what he did only a few days before reveals how untrustworthy he is.
James 1:8. “A double-minded man is unstable in all his ways.”
This is unacceptable. We are told to have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. Did Ted Wilson reprove the unfruitful works of darkness? Well, probably not if one is to believe what the article stated was the reason for this luncheon…
“On Thursday afternoon, at the 61st GC Session in St. Louis, Missouri, PARL hosted a luncheon to strengthen relationships between PARL directors and engage with public officials and key religious leaders.”
Baal Peor is here…
Correct
Well said
Their actions judge them not us
Very fact it was a closed doors / secret meeting
Unmasked them as to why they were secretive and not open about it
Is not this the same ted Wilson who said there is no sunday law in the pipeline
And any other day ( not sunday only) than the biblical sabbath is the mark of the beast
As good old pastor Jeffrey’s used to say
Your actions speak so loud cannot hear what you are saying.
Also 👇👇👇
We are authorized to hold in the same estimation as did the beloved disciple those who claim to abide in Christ while living in transgression of God’s law. There exist in these last days evils similar to those that threatened the prosperity of the early church; and the teachings of the apostle John on these points should be carefully heeded. “You must have charity,” is the cry heard everywhere, especially from those who profess sanctification. But true charity is too pure to cover an unconfessed sin. While we are to love the souls for whom Christ died, we are to make no compromise with evil. We are not to unite with the rebellious and call this charity. God requires His people in this age of the world to stand for the right as unflinchingly as did John in opposition to soul-destroying errors. – AA 554.3
The apostle teaches that while we should manifest Christian courtesy we are authorized to deal in plain terms with sin and sinners; that this is not inconsistent with true charity. “Whosoever committeth sin,” he writes, “transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. And ye know that He was manifested to take away our sins; and in Him is no sin. Whosoever abideth in Him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen Him, neither known Him.” – AA 555.1
The time has fully come when darkness is called light, and light is called darkness. We are living in an age when sham liberality is extolled; when those who scatter falsehood, false doctrines, and soul-destroying heresies are received and exalted by society, and the most terrible deeds of iniquity are glossed over and excused on the plea of charity. Even the voices from the pulpits of our land are saying, “It shall be well with the transgressor.” Sin is not dealt with as a thing of fearful consequence, destined to bring inevitable ruin upon those who persist in its indulgence. It is not pictured in its abhorrent character before the people of the world. Smooth things are prophesied by false teachers, and the multitudes are resting in their sin, unmindful of the solemn warnings and examples of the word of God. The time has come when we should “sigh and .. cry for all the abominations” that are done in the land. – RH January 10, 1888
While the law of God is being made void in our world, there is a decided testimony to be borne. The truth is to be presented in its native force and clearness, whether men will hear or whether they will forbear. This cannot be done without exciting opposition. Those who refuse to receive the love of the truth will not rest without attempting to retard its progress. They have been turned unto fables, and will unite with the great adversary of souls to bring the message of heaven into contempt. – RH January 10, 1888
The attacks of the enemy must be met with the truth of his word. Falsehood must be unmasked, its true character must be revealed, and the light of the law of Jehovah must shine forth into the moral darkness of the world. We are to present the claims of his word. We shall not be held guiltless if we neglect this solemn duty. But while we stand in defense of the truth, let us not stand in defense of self, and make a great ado because we are called to bear reproach and misrepresentation. Let us not pity ourselves, but be very jealous for the law of the Most High. – RH January 10, 1888
Says the apostle, “The time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; and they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.” On every side we see men easily led captive by the delusive imaginations of those who make void the word of God; but when the truth is brought before them, they are filled with impatience and anger. – RH January 10, 1888
But mark, the apostle does not claim to be sinless; he is seeking perfection by walking in the light of God’s countenance. He testifies that the man who professes to know God, and yet breaks the divine law, gives the lie to his profession. “He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him” (1 John 2:4). In this age of boasted liberality these words would be branded as bigotry. But the apostle teaches that while we should manifest Christian courtesy, we are authorized to call sin and sinners by their right names—that this is consistent with true charity. While we are to love the souls for whom Christ died, and labor for their salvation, we should not make a compromise with sin. We are not to unite with the rebellious, and call this charity. God requires His people in this age of the world to stand, as did John in his time, unflinchingly for the right, in opposition to soul-destroying errors. – SL 65.1
How do we know that our leaders weren’t meeting with them to let them know that the SDA church will not conform to Sunday worship with other churches. How do we know they weren’t giving the Catholic Church a warning that PARL will not let them infringe on our religious freedoms?
Great point! A lot of people get their exercise by jumping to conclusions!
Thanks Al. You make a good point…there is absolutely nothing suspicious about a secret private luncheon being hosted by our Public Affairs and Religious Liberty department whose desire is to keep the church from being sued, and defending everyone but faithful Adventists. Because everyone knows how PARL WAS IN THE FOREFRONT DEFENDING PEOPLE’S right to bodily autonomy…aka MY BODY MY CHOICE!!! Yep PARL was silent as crickets but I am sure they will have bullhorns in hand decrying the loss of a woman’s right to kill her unborn baby! Oh, but there I go jumping to conclusions…
Considering the fact that most of our ministers belong to local ecumenical ministerial groups for dialogue, support, and ideas, I am sure that the leaders of the other organizations that were invited and were present are all well versed in what SDA’s believe….certainly the SDA ministers who belong to these local ministers groups have been witnessing to everyone present… And even if they didn’t witness to those present, I am pretty sure that those not of our faith have electronic devises that can help them find any number of SDA Preachers breaking the bread of life to the viewers and listeners online.
We don’t know anything because it was secret…So you are assuming a lot especially since for all these years with pictures to prove it Mr. Diop has been chairing their meetings and being a participant in ecumenical meetings but probably hasn’t had that conversation about how the SDA Church will not be joining in on Sunday worship services or else PARL will tell them a thing or two about religious freedom…
I have yet to meet one Adventist whose job was saved because PARL got involved. Just ask a female teacher in our school system who taught back in the 60’s how much they were not helped when their salary was cut in HALF because they made the ‘mistake’ of getting married. I have yet to meet any Adventist who has been helped in any fashion by PARL…PARL didn’t defend anyone with a conscious religious objection to the fetal cell line and who knows what else covid jab.
Well said
Amen
Do you know why they don’t see anything wrong

KJV Revelation 3:17-18
17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
Because they are blind
Cannot see
We know because
If they were doing as you say
There was no need for closed doors meeting and being secretive
And ganoune diop wouldn’t be singing their latin ongs
Pray for these men.
Yes, Yes, and again I say, Yes!
They need to apostate for the prophecy to be fulfilled.Participation in ecumenical movement hasn’t started here.There is alot.They rejected the three angels messages. They are good at talking but their fruits don’t tally… Ecumenism will lead to formation of the false prophet/image of the beast.
“O My people! Those who lead you cause you to err, And destroy the way of your paths.” Isaiah 3:12. – you left out the first part of this verse, being led by ‘WOMEN AND CHILDREN”
Everyone is so quick to judge what went on behind closed doors. Just because there was a meeting with these representatives does not mean as a church we are compromising with Babylon. There is always two sides to every story. The truth will later come to light.
This is not the first ecumenical event. The compromise has been going on for many years. So, we can very well know what is going on behind the closed doors. Just the fact that our leadership is meeting with ecumenical leaders speaks of itself.
I agree! There is always two sides to every story. The truth will later come to light.
Goodbye example.
As Christians we were called to be the Ambassadors for Christ. We have been called to preach the three Angels message. We are the light that shines in darkness.
As Christians we need to focus on the journey to heaven.
Our Lord will see his church. We are told in the book of Isaiah 41:9-18 not to fear. But is good to read these kind of things because it shows us where we are in world history.
Also, no one is judging here. People are commenting what they read and seen. No one is charging anyone. It is just the discussion among belivers. I would not call this judging. We have to pray for Ted and Diope so that they can focus on preaching the 3 Angels message. Jesus is coming soon.
This is not the first time the church held secret meetings. Happened in 1919 secret bible conference
Is no time for blindness,and not able to dicern right from wrong. This is exactly the dream sister White had. Catholic infiltración, Catholic confiscación, the Lord Messenger had predicted a mega apostasy would come we are seeing all these. Let’s pray 🙏 for discernment,and be empower with the Holy Spirit not to join all these spostasies and apostates leaders. We most prayer for one another’s they will be surprises in heaven except for the PAPACY, the man of sin the beast Satan right hand according to the prophet EGW.
los lideres administrativos darán cuenta a DIOS de todo lo que hacen.
a nosotros como pueblo esto debería alegrarnos, porque es una afirmación mas de que nuestro CREADOR Y REDENTOR esta viniendo por nosotros sus fieles.

The Lord has pronounced a curse upon those who take from or add to the Scriptures. The great I AM has decided what shall constitute the rule of faith and doctrine, and he has designed that the Bible shall be a household book. The church that holds to the word of God is irreconcilably separated from Rome. Protestants were once thus apart from this great church of apostasy, but they have approached more nearly to her, and are still in the path of reconciliation to the Church of Rome. Rome never changes. Her principles have not altered in the least. She has not lessened the breach between herself and Protestants; they have done all the advancing. But what does this argue for the Protestantism of this day? It is the rejection of Bible truth which makes men approach to infidelity. It is a backsliding church that lessens the distance between itself and the Papacy. { ST February 19, 1894, par. 4 }
Brothers and sisters, Let us be careful not to make the same mistake as our forefathers who accuse Jesus of being a sinner because he ate lunch with Romans, tax collectors, prostitutes, drunkards, etc. Let us use Jesus’ method of Acts of compassion to finish the work:

Glancing the Book mentioned (from the PDF)
It looks Incredibly eccumenical with Crosses everywhere and people wearing dog collars,
The SOP mentions how Catholics place crosses everywhere to claim it, Diop features in the book there’s a few photos of him,
(no surprise there)
The surprise for some that Elder Ted published from the pulpit the dangers of eccumenical council’s but has gone to them himself on multiple occasions….
This behavior looks inconsistent and hypothetical.
Russia, Brazil and now this
(possibly other occasions too.)
This is one of the biggest smare campaign against the church, however I am happy for it, this just goes to show the Seventh day Adventist church is God’s church and we are doing what were called to do ” evangilise”.
My SDA Pastor Warned us of this 0ver 50 years ago. Sister White also said the same thing over 100 years ago. I NEVER thought I would see it with my own eyes. There is NO doubt we are living in END TIMES. Things are happening very quickly. I have not Given the SDA church 1 penny since I first started to notice This. I instead support those in NEED DIRECTLY via our organic farm training programs and other FREE services. Read about what we do here: https://photos.kitakitz.com/KITAKITZ-Natural-Farm
We must be careful in making conclusions. But it shows that the agents of God’s enemy is working hard in pursuing their goals. Our Lord Jesus Christ was also tempted by Satan but He prevailed. These agents of God’s enemy will not stop in trying to make things happen as prophesied!
In browsing the internet, we can read that there states or nations that are now passing laws on strict Sunday observance, the words of the Lord Jesus Christ in Matthew Chapter 24 is being fulfilled; the COVID-19 pandemic, the Ukraine-Russian War, the rumor that China is ready to make war with the U.S., Taiwan and other countries; shows that America in prophecy is closing in to what EGW said or has written, pretty soon the Lord will intervene by His glorious appearing to save His people, His redeemed!
You have to study this in depth: the RC church herself says that all her doctrines are grounded in the trinity! The Trinity is idolatry!
