Seventh-day
Adventists Are
Clasping Hands With Rome
By Robert K.
Sanders
Ellen G. WhiteWhen Protestantism shall stretch her hand across the gulf to grasp the hand of the Roman power, when she shall reach over the abyss to clasp hands with spiritualism, when, under the influence of this threefold union, our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near.--5T 451 (1885). |
Ellen White predicted well over one hundred years ago that Protestantism would reach out their hand to the Roman power meaning the Catholic Church. It is amazing that God did not show Ellen that it would be her own apostate church that is reaching out to Rome. The three-fold union is the Seventh-day Adventist Church, Spiritualism and the Roman Catholic Church. How about that? The SDA Church is doing their best to fulfill EGW's vision.

List Of Those Attending Assisi Peace
Conference
VATICAN, Jan 17, 02 (CWNews.com) - The Italian
daily newspaper Avvenire has published a list of the religious leaders expected
to participate in the January 24 inter-religious observance at Assisi.
The Vatican has not yet released an official list
of the participants, explaining that the list will not be considered complete
until all those invited have responded. An estimated 300 people are expected to
be involved, representing 44 different religious bodies.
Avvenire reported that 33 cardinals are expected,
led by the Vatican Secretary of State, Cardinal Angelo Sodano; the prefect of
the Congregation for Bishops, Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re; the president of
the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace, Cardinal Francois-Xavier Nguyen
Van Thuan; the president of the Pontifical Council for Christian Unity, Cardinal
Walter Kasper; and Cardinal Etchegaray, who organized the original
inter-religious ceremony in Assisi in 1986. Also present will be representatives
of the episcopal conferences of Algeria, Angola, the Philippines, Indonesia,
Pakistan, Nigeria, Rwanda, and Sudan-- countries where inter-religious dialogue
is particularly important.
The Orthodox churches of the world will send 11
patriarchs to Assisi, led by the Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew I of
Constantinople. But no representative of the Moscow patriarchate is expected.
About 50 Islamic leaders will attend, coming from Pakistan, Saudi Arabia,
Lebanon, Egypt, Iran, the Philippines, and Jordan. And Jewish rabbis will come
from Jerusalem, France, and the United States-- along with Elio Toaff, the
former chief rabbi of Rome. Protestant bodies will be represented by Konrad
Kaiser, the secretary-general of the World council of Churches; Anglican Bishop
Richard Garrard of Rome; Setri Nyomi of the World Alliance of Reformed Churches;
George Freeman of the World Methodist Council; Cecil Robeck of the Pentecostal
church; Alvin Jackson of the Disciples of Christ; Theodor Angelou of the
European Baptist Federation; and Bert Beach of
the Seventh-Day Adventists.
The Vatican also expects representatives of
Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism, Hinduism, Zoroastrianism, and traditional African
faiths. The Italian government will be represented in Assisi by President Carlo
Azeglio Ciampi and Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi.
All these participants are expected to be aboard a
specially chartered train that will leave Rome for Assisi on the morning of
January 24, returning that evening.

Dr Beach Gives The Pope A
Metal In A 1977 Visit to Rome
Here is another
example of your hard earned tithe at work. It paid for Dr. Beach's trip to Rome
as well as his salary. Most SDAs today do not realize that their church has
bowed before the Pope of Rome, Paul
VI to
give him a gold metal.
Please wait for
the Adventist Review Article to load and the picture of the Adventist/Pope's
gold metal.
Dr. Bert B. Beach Ph.D. e-mail address is 74617.2745@compuserve.com He is General Secretary, Council on Interchurch Relations. The Medal was Presented to the Pope on May 18, 1977 and printed in the August 11, 1977 issue of the Review.
