I can’t get over Stephen Bohr’s hairdo. If anyone is that conceited and self-centered that he has to have that stupid comb-over, how can anyone take him seriously. I stopped watching him years ago.

In reply to TrustingGOD. I agree with you. The Spirit is divisive over a personal view. It is dividing the church.

In reply to Lavern Myrie. Sorry, but if you believe that Conrad Vine is a conspiracy theorist, then you are absolutely uneducated and have put your trust in those who do no teach truth i.e. Ted Wison and others.

Pastor Vine said more than is addressed in the letter here. Go back and listen to the statement he made before the one addressed in this letter. It is my understanding that it was that statement which could be seen as divisive, not the one addressed in the letter above.

I find it hard to say we could take our T/O and do as he suggested because of GC’s stance less than divisive.

In addition, it seems selfish,to me, for SDA’s or any group to try to demand that the government make an exception when it was done for the good of all from their perspective. SDA’s were free to make a choice and that is and was well within their right, however other people had rights as well. Nobody was forced to take the vaccine, but some institutions said it was mandatory (for the good of all) and that if a person chose not to take it he/she would lose his/her job. That was fair. There were those who did not believe as we do. There was a lot not known about the disease and many were just fearful for their lives and their loved ones’ lives. This was a disease killing thousands a day, not a simple illness. That should have counted for something. SDA’s who did not take the vaccine and lost their jobs were witnesses for the truths they believed in. Praise God!, but don’t blame GC and call them out for their decision. In my opinion, it was the correct one.

When Daniel and the Hebrew boys decided they would not defile themselves with the king’s fare, I believe they petitioned God and left it in His hands. I am sure they would not have accepted the king’s food, but I am also sure that they would have accepted the consequences of their decisions if they had not been granted permission to do as they requested.

In reply to Clive F. I personally am appalled that what was utmost in the mind of this conference was the possible revenue and not the call for the North American Conference to be responsive to those who lost jobs, homes and suffered serious complications from the vaccine. That many of out hospitals take funding from the government and our churches bowed to government not supporting personal conscience is the heart of this. The focus should of been on those damaged first and foremost...but it was not. This I see as a gracious error on the part of leadership.

It’s hard to even know where to begin. Those who opposed the vaccine for the most part didn’t have to see or care for those dying of Covid 19 which did kill millions of people. That intelligent people charged with your protection saw the virulence of the disease and were able to predict the damage that it would do early in the course of the pandemic does not mean they planned it or were in any way responsible for it. The vaccines, and there were multiple different brands and types, were effective in preventing death and controlling the spread of the disease is proven in multiple studies from dozens of sources. They are not 100% without risks and were not 100% effective in preventing people from getting the disease. This is true of every medical treatment ever contrived and does not mean the church needs to support every one who decides not to be vaccinated, just as they do not support those who decline other medical treatments because they are not 100% guaranteed and without risk. To expect the church to intervene in these cases is unreasonable. For pastor Vine to accuse the church leaders of malfeasance and to suggest that the leaders should resign is beyond unreasonable. To compensate every member who loses their job over their refusal to accept vaccination using church offerings would be misappropriation of the funds. To suggest that a parallel church structure should be organized if the SDA church does not agree to Mr. Vine’s demands is treason.

I was disappointed with Pastor Bohr’s statement regarding the C-19 innocations and about Pastor Vine’s sermon. Pastor Bohr had to go outside of the Spirit of Prophecy to a memo written by one of Sister White’s secretaries stating that she took the smallpox vaccine. Sister White wrote 100K pages of content but never mentioned vaccines pro or con. For Pastor Bohr to claim that Sister White endorsed vaccines because she allegedly took the smallpox vaccine was disingenuous. The same Pastor Bohr who went outside of the Spirit of Prophecy to find a memo written by one of Sister White sectararies to bost his support for the Reaffirmation statement failed to quote content she wrote on the tithe. Sister White accepted tithe from disgrunntled church members and redirected it to where it was most needed. Neither the Bible or the Spirit of Prophecy support the GC’s claim that the Conference is the sole storehouse for the tithe. Pastor Bohr supports the GC position on tithe although it is not in accorance with the Bible and Spirit of Prophecy. I support Pastor Vine 100%.

In reply to Rennette Madill.

Exactly!
Conrad vine is a CONSPIRACY THEORIST . He is so deeply steeped in you tube conspiracies he preaches it from the pulpit to unsuspecting GULLIBLE ADVENTIST.
Too many Adventist are believing the COVID vaccine is some terrible thing because that is what disinformation is telling them online. Then to have a pastor repeat that is only further destructive.
