Somebody must have got the memo.
Two weeks ago, Ganoune Diop said this:
The Roman Catholic church changed in 1965, and now they are champions of religious liberty.
Dignitatis humanae (1965 Roman Catholic document) is a beautiful text on religious liberty. Adventists have to be educated in what is happening in the world so that we will not uh slander people you know.
Jesus was uh has a ecumenical mission.
Diop has given himself the task of forging ecumenical alliances under the guise of public affairs. So enamored is he with the United Nations, that he even held a meeting in 2019 to encourage other churches to support the UN Agenda 2030 sustainable development initiative. Unbelievable.
Following the lead of the General Conference PARL department, the Loma Linda University Religion Department is hosting a meeting on October 12, to heal the ‘turbulent relationship’ between Adventism and Catholicism. Details:
Date: October 12, 2024

Mr. Romanus IkeThe Seventh-day Adventist and Roman Catholic Churches have had a turbulent relationship through the years. But in today’s world many people see them as having much more in common than what separates them. The panel will explore the intriguing question of what the two churches can learn from each other and what that might imply for the future. Reinder Bruinsma will premier his new book on the topic at the close of the program.
Sponsored by Loma Linda University Center for Understanding World Religions and Humanities Program [another word for this is ecumenism].
Diop: The Roman Catholic Church has changed
EGW: “The Roman Church now presents a fair front to the world, covering with apologies her record of horrible cruelties. She has clothed herself in Christlike garments; but she is unchanged. Every principle of the papacy that existed in past ages exists today. The doctrines devised in the darkest ages are still held. Let none deceive themselves. The papacy that Protestants are now so ready to honor is the same that ruled the world in the days of the Reformation, when men of God stood up, at the peril of their lives, to expose her iniquity. She possesses the same pride and arrogant assumption that lorded it over kings and princes, and claimed the prerogatives of God. Her spirit is no less cruel and despotic now than when she crushed out human liberty and slew the saints of the Most High” (GC 571.1).
Who you gonna believe? Diop or Ellen White?
While liberal elites in the Church parcel out ecumenical group hugs, the souls of our members are being carved up into offerings placed upon the altar of a multicultural new leftist world order. And they are taking us with them. If we allow it.
