While walking down the hallway at the America’s Center Convention Complex—the site of the 62nd General Conference Session—I saw Ganoune Diop approaching. Knowing how busy church leaders are during these sessions, I asked if he had time to answer just one question. He stopped to look at me, and I asked him directly, “Why don’t you preach the Three Angels’ Messages? Why do you only preach Jesus?” As he began to respond, I asked if I could record his answer, and he consented. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to record my question in the video—only his response.
In the video, Diop begins with a public-relations-style answer about all the different approaches to sharing the Seventh-day Adventist faith. But when he got to the part where he was about to accuse others of fabricating things about him, I politely interrupted him by saying it was in a video from Africa where he said those things in his own words. That’s when he cut me off and declared, “Yes, but I never said I don’t preach the Three Angels’ Message—that would be nonsense.”
Ganoune Diop then stated that he does preach Jesus, insisting that Christ should be the “center of attraction,” as Ellen White affirms. He claims that this was the true intent behind his statements. But then he pivoted, expressing concern that some people reduce Adventism to simply pointing out that other religions are part of the beast power—something he openly opposes.
That’s a troubling stance because it isn’t some fringe group within Adventism pushing that message—it’s God Himself who, through the Three Angels’ Messages, commands the world to avoid the beast, the image, and the mark. To reject that part of our mission is to reject God’s divine warning.
So here’s the video from Africa. In his words, Ganoune Diop clearly states that he only preaches Jesus, not the Three Angels’ Message. Now, after I asked him for clarification on this, as we are told to hold our leaders accountable, he claims he never said such a thing and insists that believing otherwise is “nonsense.” You be the judge.
What’s truly “nonsense” is the idea that some are sidestepping the Three Angels’ Messages in their public witness. The problem isn’t with preaching Jesus. The problem is the omission of the full, distinct, urgent warning given in Revelation 14. You cannot preach the everlasting gospel of Jesus Christ while dodging the call to come out of Babylon, the exposure of the beast, and the danger of receiving the mark.
“The present truth, the special message given to our world, even the third angel’s message, comprehends a vast field, containing heavenly treasures. No one can be excusable who says, I will no longer have anything to do with these special messages; I will preach Christ. No one can preach Christ, and present the truth as it is in Jesus, unless he presents the truths that are to come before the people at the present time, when such important developments are taking place” (Manuscript 33, 1897).
Amen Bro Andy! Great work. May God continue to bless you in your work for these last days.
Thank you and blessings!
I’ve heard him say that the Catholic church has changed.
Yes he has. He and Reinder Bruinsma. They both speak of change occurring during Vatican 2. The RCC did not change, they only changed their tactics on how draw the daughters back to the mother.
”I am not surprised by Diop’s remarks ?” This is how the Jesuits operate, they say one thing today and tommorrow they say something else different. But let’s begging by asking ourselves? ”How can you preach the three angels messages, and at the same time you’re promoting ecumenism? This is impossible? So, Mr . Ganoune Diop? ‘Stop telling lies?” You are not a genuine S.D.A, you are an agent of Rome?”Let’s closely focus and discover who is this man called Ganoune Diop?
Dr.Ganoune Diop is the director of Public Affairs and Religious Liberty for the worldwide Seventh day Adventist Church. He was elected at the General Conference Session in San Anthonio Texas, which was 60th session in July 2015. He served as the Church Liason to the United Nations in New York and Geneva, and as it’s representative within the international community of civic and political leaders. Dr . Diop has masters in Exeges and Theology from collonges,France, a master’s degree in philosophy from university of paris, and PHd in old Testament studies from Andrews University.
He also studied at University of Sorbonne in France, the university is tied to Notre Dame in Paris. These are Catholic institutions. It was the Sorbonne university that did all it could to destroy the protestant reformation. In the 1500S, the sorbonne took an active role in the suppression of truth being taught by the protestants and even condemned them to the flames. Now , surely ,dear friends is this the man we entrust with church leadership especially the religious liberty?” This man is extremely dangerous ?” He’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing , he keeps on deceiving the S.D.A church members , but unfortunately many members are asleep ,not realising what’s going on. We must wake up?
Not only has Diop been recorded by men, but also by the Heavenly Recording Angel,
He made a 2hr video that coerced Adventist into getting experimental untested injections, blood on his hands, appears to be unrepentive,
Please people vote individually this time and not on another package deal.
One thing I noticed about this interview video is: Ganoune Diop isn’t really interested in talking with you Andy because he’s to focused on all the people passing by him. That alone says something.
I’m glad you were able to get an interview with Ganoune Diop. Either he has the beginning stages of Alzheimer’s or just refuses to be truth and fess up. The video footage doesn’t lie.
Amen Br. Andy! Good to see the watchmen sounding the trumpet!
If Diop actually did preach what he “says” he does, then people at the meetings he attends would either be converted OR they would have thrown him out & told him to never return. All his ecumenical cohorts believe in Sunday, they would’ve kicked him out. Ecumenism is not for preaching, it’s for dumbing-down to settle on the lowest common denominator.
Excellent Point
Merci frère Andy pour ces vérités et cette analyse entre les deux gouvernements quinquennal de notre église.
En vérité en vérité je vous le dit, les jésuites doivent quitter l’église.
