In this video, Dr. Conrad Vine addresses the issue of freedom of conscience, which is the right to hold one’s beliefs according to one’s own judgment without external interference or coercion. This is a fundamental right that is supposed to be protected by law, which means that we have the freedom to follow our own moral and religious convictions and make our own decisions about our lives, religious practices, and medical treatments.
Tragically, unvaccinated people were not afforded these fundamental rights during the Covid pandemic. Instead, they were targeted, discriminated against, demonized, and denied work, travel, and medical treatments, which amounted to the loss of their freedom of conscience. Clearly, the Covid vaccine didn’t provide much protection, because if it actually worked, why would the unvaccinated pose such a huge risk?
Even more tragic was the fact that the Seventh-day Adventist Church sided with the oppressive vaccine mandates. The official position of the Seventh-day Adventist Church is that Covid vaccines are an important tool to protect public health and should be encouraged. Additionally, the church argued that because vaccines are primarily a public health issue, any penalties or negative consequences imposed on people for refusing to take the Covid vaccines did not constitute a violation of religious liberty.
So, what have we learned from the Covid pandemic? Masks are ineffective. Six feet of social distancing doesn’t work. The vaccines do not prevent the infection or spread of Covid; in fact, it has made many sick and killed others. And as reported by the World Economic Forum, Covid has been one of the most profitable products ever. [1] The real question is, “How much money did Adventist health institutions make during the pandemic?”
While some individuals may have objections to the vaccine mandates, the overwhelming consensus among the Seventh-day Adventist leadership is that the Covid vaccines are a moral and ethical responsibility.

I have no words for how sad this is for the faithful SDA’s, whose own denomination has turned its back on its members. Breaks my heart.

In this case “Money is the root of all evil.” Sold their souls to the devil n sold out faithful members for absolute power that’s corrupted them absolutely—such a terrible tragedy that God will hold them accountable for.
For all those who encountered terrible loss, especially in the loss of loved ones, my heartfelt condolences. I pray God grant you His healing power, give you beauty for ashes, turn your mourning to joy, restore n recompense you for the years the cankerworm has eaten. Stay faithful to Him who never changes, He will never fail us as His true children to the very end.
Love, Sis Judy

This seems to be the history of the church leadership throughout the Bible n history, Cain & Abel all the up to the church today. But has preserved Him a people who will not bow the knee to Baal or kiss him. Praise the Lord His true church will triumph Rev 12

I have watched Conrad Vine’s presentation over and over, and shared it with all my SDA family, friends, and acquaintances. Sadly, most church members don’t have an opinion about any of these critical, endtime issues. Words cannot adequately express the pain of my aching heart, to see prophecy fulfilling around us in how the church leadership has abandoned the members to be politically and Roman correct! The religious liberty department in the GC has sold us out to Rome with the full support of the current president and the unholy ADCOM.
