Is
God "Dependent" Upon the Apostate SDA Church to Gift the Final Loud
Cry Message to the World
Jer 7:4 Trust
ye not in lying words, saying, The temple
of the LORD, The temple of the
LORD, The temple of the LORD, [are] these.

to the Jews--Promises the Jews misinterpreted: "The
Jews had deceived themselves by misinterpreting the words of the Lord through
his prophets, of his eternal favor to his people Israel. 'Thus saith the Lord, which giveth the sun for a light by day,
and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, which
divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar the Lord of hosts is his name:
If those ordinances depart from before me, saith the Lord, then the seed of
Israel also shall cease from being a nation before me forever. Thus saith the
Lord: If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth
searched out beneath, I will also cast off all the seed of Israel for all
that they have done, saith the Lord.' Jer. 31:35-37. These words the Jews applied to themselves. And because God had
shown them so great favor and mercy, they flattered themselves that,
notwithstanding their sins and iniquities, he would still retain them as his
favored people, and shower especial blessings upon them. They misapplied the
words of Jeremiah and depended for their salvation upon being called the
[chosen] children of Abraham. If they had indeed been worthy of the name of
Abraham's children, they would have followed the righteous example of their
father Abraham, and would have done the works of Abraham. This has been the danger of the people of God in all ages and
especially is this the danger of those living near the close of time. . . . God would in no wise excuse sin in a people who had been
enlightened, even if he had, in their days of faithfulness and purity, loved
them, and given them especial promises. These promises and blessings were
always upon condition of obedience upon their part. The Lord pronounced, by the mouth of Moses, blessings upon the
obedient, and curses upon the disobedient." E. G. White, Review and Herald, Vol. 1, 123. With the example of the Jews, God’s first
“chosen” people given to us in Holy Writ, and such a complete history as to
what happened to them, it is so ironic that God’s people today have assumed
the same attitude that no matter what they do, they are the temple of the
Lord. Many Jews still believe that lie
to this day. A person by the name of Anonymous (I will
keep the name in confidence), has asked a most apropos and timely question
that attests to a common belief among professing Seventh-day Adventists
today, that sounds all too familiarly like the Jews of old. Here is that
question: From: Anonymous To: <SDAIssues@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Thursday, October 19, 2006 7:07 AM Subject: [SDAIssues] Fwd: oh how Ron responds: Dear Anonymous, I know what God’s Word says
concerning apostasy of His people, no matter how high and sacred their
position might have been. I know the
history of His first “chosen” people, recorded in Holy Writ for an example to
all. I know God’s dealings with them
when they apostatized. I recognize
Jeremiah 11:9-15, as constituting His line in the sand. In Jeremiah 11:9-15, the Jews
conspired with God’s enemies. A
synonym of conspired is confederate.
They confederated with God’s enemies and thereby returned to the
iniquities of their forefathers. It is abundantly and profoundly
clear to some professing Seventh-day Adventists, including myself, that the
SDA church has, since the late 1950’s and early 1960’s, conspired and
confederated with God’s enemies. In
the Adventist Review, the flagship
paper of the church, it was admitted I the latter 1980’s that the church had
been a MEMBER of the Council of Free Churches in Hungary. This came to light only because upwards of
fifteen-hundred Hungarians protested MEMBERSHIP in that ecumenical counsel,
which is still a MEMBER of the World Council of Churches. The SDA General Conference
president at the time, Neal C. Wilson, went to Hungary, and told the SDA’s
there, in substance, that it might have been better if the church had not
joined that counsel, but since it had, they would just have to make the best
of it. On Sabbath mornings, those 1500 members were barred from entrance to
their churches by strong arm body guards placed at all entrances. This is what happens to any who stand for
the truth in the now apostate SDA church.
If you protested sufficiently, Anonymous, the same thing would
happen to you. I know that God will not use an apostate
church joined to Babylon to give the final message. Ellen White said
that God will choose others. I believe her. You and most other
SDA's apparently do not believe her. Also, God says that if His people
fail in their commission, the very stones will cry out the final truth. I
believe Him. Apparently you, Anonymous, and other SDA's do not believe
God. I do. Luk 19:40 And he answered and said unto them, I
tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would
immediately cry out. "The Lord Jesus will always
have a chosen people to serve Him. When the Jewish people rejected Christ,
the Prince of life. He took from them the kingdom of God and gave it unto the
Gentiles. God will continue to work on this principle with every branch of
His work. When a church proves unfaithful to the work of the Lord,
whatever their position may be, however high and sacred their calling, the
Lord can no longer work with them. Others are then chosen to bear important
responsibilities. But,
if these in turn do not purify their lives from every wrong action, if they
do not establish pure and holy principles in all their borders, then the Lord
will grievously afflict and humble them and, unless they repent, will remove
them from their place and make them a reproach. God is not 'worshipped with men's hands,
as though he needed any thing' (Acts 17:25). E. G. White, The Upward Look,
131. By saying that God would continue to work
on this principle with every branch of His work, Ellen White makes it clear
what God would do if the SDA church proved unfaithful to the work of the
Lord, as it so woefully has. "He will take his Holy Spirit from the church and give it to
OTHERS who will appreciate
it." E. G. White, Review and
Herald, July 16, 1895, Vol. 3,
272. "Many will stand in our pulpits with the torch of false
prophecy in their hands, kindled from the hellish torch of Satan. If doubts
and unbelief are cherished, the
faithful ministers will be removed from the people who think they know so
much. 'If thou hadst known,' said Christ, 'even thou, at least in
this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid
from thine eyes." E.G. White, Testimonies
to Ministers, pp. 409, 410. God will use the faithful ministers and the 144,000, to give the
final Loud Cry Message of Warning to the world, with the aid of the Holy
Spirit. Is this possible? God did it with the 12 and 70 in His day,
to the then known world, and He can do as He has said at the end-time! He can do all things. Some do not believe that. They believe that He needs them and their
apostate church no matter what they or the church does by way of gross
apostasy. Apostate, SDA Laodiceans, believe that
God's needs them to give the final message to the world. God and Ellen
White both say that God is not worshipped with men's hands, as though He
needed anything." I believe them both. All apostate SDA's
don't believe God or Ellen White on this. Acts 17:24 God that made the world
and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth
not in temples made with hands; "We must as a people arouse and cleanse the camp of Israel.
Licentiousness, unlawful intimacy, and unholy practices are coming in among
us in a large degree...We are in danger of becoming a sister to fallen
Babylon, of allowing our churches to become corrupted and filled with every
foul spirit, a cage for every unclean and hateful bird, and will we be clear
unless we make decided movements to cure the existing evil? E. G. White, Manuscript Releases No. 449, pp. 17,
18. "If we turn from the testimony of God's word, and accept
false doctrines [Calvinism] because our fathers taught them, we fall under
the condemnation pronounced upon Babylon we are drinking of the wine of her
abominations." E. G White, The 1884 Great Controversy entitled Spirit of Prophecy, Vol. 4, 347, not
to be confused with Testimonies,
Vol. 4. The four volume Spirit of Prophecy series, can still be special
ordered through any Adventist Book Store. "It is now the duty of God's commandment--keeping people to
watch and pray, to search the Scriptures diligently, to hide the Word of God
in the heart, lest they sin against Him in idolatrous thoughts and debasing
practices, and the church of God become demoralized like the fallen churches
whom prophecy represents as being filled with every unclean and hateful
bird." E. G. White, Review and Herald,
May 17, 1887. "In the balances of the sanctuary the Seventh-day Adventist
church is to be weighed. She will be judged by the privileges and advantages
that she has had. . . .I saw our Instructor pointing to the garments of
so-called righteousness. Stripping them of, He laid bare he defilement
beneath. Then He said to me: 'Can you not see how they have pretentiously
covered up their defilement and rottenness of character? How is the faithful
city become an harlot?" E. G. White, Testimonies,
Vol. 8, pp. 247-250. "Thorns sprung up.--The thorns made it impossible for the
wheat to mature (see Luke 8:4). In the same way secular interests prevent the
fruits of the Spirit (Gal. 5:22, 23) from reaching maturity. Religion is
relegated to the subordinate position of being only one interest among many.
For lack of cultivation it withers and eventually dies. That which the
thorny-ground hearers lack is a moral transformation (Christ's Object Lessons, p. 50). To them, justification is the
sum and substance of religion, and they fail to realize that the Christian
life consists essentially in the process known as sanctification--the process
by which evil traits and tendencies are replaced by the perfect life-pattern
of Jesus Christ." SDA Bible
Commentary, Vol. 5, 405. "It is IMPOSSIBLE for you to unite with those who are
corrupt, and still remain pure. (II Corinthians 6:14-15 quoted). God and
Christ and the heavenly host would have men know that if he unites with the
corrupt he will become corrupt." E. G. White, Review and Herald, Vol. 4, p. 137. "The thorns of sin will grow in any soil they need no
cultivation but grace must be carefully cultivated. The briers and thorns are
always ready to spring up, and the work of purification must advance
continually.... The thorns that have been cut off but not uprooted grow space,
until the soul [and/or the church] is overspread with them." E. G.
White, Christ's Object Lessons,
50. The same principle that is applied to the personal life in the
statement above, according to God, in Luke 8:4, and the SDA Bible Commentary,
also applies to the church in general.
If the thorns of open sin are permitted to grow, they choke out the
wheat and make it IMPOSSIBLE for the wheat to mature. Is this supported by the SDA Bible Commentary
writers, when it was published in 1957, just before the apostasy corruption
took place? Yes indeed: "Thorns sprung up.--The thorns made it impossible for the
wheat to mature (see Luke 8:4). In the same way secular interests prevent the
fruits of the Spirit (Gal. 5:22, 23) from reaching maturity. Religion is
relegated to the subordinate position of being only one interest among many.
For lack of cultivation it withers and eventually dies. That which the
thorny-ground hearers lack is a moral transformation (Christ's Object Lessons, p. 50). To them, justification is the
sum and substance of religion, and they fail to realize that the Christian
life consists essentially in the process known as sanctification--the process
by which evil traits and tendencies are replaced by the perfect life-pattern
of Jesus Christ." SDA Bible
Commentary, Vol. 5, 405. "It is IMPOSSIBLE for you to unite with those who are
corrupt, and still remain pure. (II Corinthians 6:14-15 quoted). God and
Christ and the heavenly host would have men know that if he unites with the
corrupt he will become corrupt." E. G. White, Review and Herald, Vol. 4, p. 137. The above reasons are why we have to separate from the prevailing
abominable apostasy. God Himself said
that it is IMPOSSIBLE for us to unite with those who are corrupt and still
remain pure. The majority of
professing Seventh-day Adventists will never believe this truth until it is
forever too late. When are we held
responsible for truth? When we learn
it! Tares are
Found Even in the Home Churches Until the Close of Probation Friend of mine, one is not saved just because he separates from
the prevailing apostasy. SDA’s have
proven that quite well. They separated
from the apostasy of the fallen churches in 1844, and then they became like
those they separated from by desiring to be just like them. Tares will be even in the home churches
until the close of probation, but they do not make it IMPOSSIBLE for the
wheat to mature. They are merely insincere believers and only God knows who
they are. Open sinners are more than
insincere believers. They are open,
unbelieving apostates. This
distinction is most important to understand. Ellen White said that quiescent, insincere believer tares, are
not to be uprooted until the close of probationary time, Christ's Object Lessons, 72.
Why? Because she said that we would have to judge their motives in
order to uproot them, and we are not to judge motives. But we do not have to judge motives to
uproot open sinners. We may not
understand their motives, but we can SEE the open sin with our very
eyes. No motives need judging in this
case! Open sinning tares and thorns are to be uprooted, or the church
will be overspread with them and they will choke out and kill the wheat,
making it impossible for the wheat to mature. This is why the wheat must be
separated from a church that is controlled by open sinning, apostate tares
and thorns. The
Apostasy of Two Different Gospels A variation of the Doctrine of the Nicolaitans is being taught in
the SDA church today. That variation
on the theme, teaches that one is not saved by works, which is true, but then
adds: “not even works empowered by the
Holy Spirit.” That variation on the them of the Doctrine of the Nicolaitans, is
a blasphemous belief which God especially hates, Rev. 2 and 3. That belief grieves away the Holy Spirit
and the presence of God from the church.
How? Why? Because God says: Act 3:26 Unto you first
God, having raised up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, in turning away
every one of you from his iniquities. How does Jesus turn away every one of you from your iniquities? "The Power of God in the Third Person.--The prince of the
power of evil can only be held in check by the power of God in the third
person of the Godhead, the Holy Spirit.-- Special Testimonies, Series A, No.
10, p. 37. (1897). Does Ellen White contradict Scripture? Scripture says that Jesus turns us away
from our iniquities. Ellen White says
that the prince of the power of evil (Satan), can only be held in check by
the Holy Spirit, the third person of the Godhead. How does Jesus equate with that third
person of the Godhead. Ellen White
makes that clear as well: "Christ declared that after his ascension, he would send to
his church, as his crowning gift, the Comforter, who was to take his place.
This Comforter is the Holy Spirit,--the soul of his life, the efficacy of his
church, the light and life of the world. With his Spirit Christ sends a
reconciling influence and a power that takes away sin. In the gift of the Spirit [HIS LIFE--THE SOUL OF HIS LIFE], Jesus
gave to man the highest good that heaven could bestow.... The Spirit was given as a regenerating agency, and without this
the sacrifice of Christ would have been of no avail.... It is by the Spirit that the heart is made pure. Through the
Spirit the believer becomes a partaker of the divine nature. Christ has given
his Spirit as a divine power to overcome all hereditary and cultivated
tendencies to evil, and to impress his own character upon the church."
E.G. White, Review and Herald Articles,
May 19, 1904, vol. 5, p. 42. “Cumbered with humanity Christ could not be in every place
personally, therefore it was altogether for their advantage that He should
leave them to go to His Father and send the Holy Spirit to be His successor
on earth. The Holy Spirit is Himself divested of the personality of humanity
and independent thereof. He would represent Himself as present in all places
by His Holy Spirit.” E.G. White, (Manuscript
Releases Volume 14 (No’s 1081-1135) MR No.1084. Does Scripture Agree With Ellen White on the Identity of the
“Another Comforter?” 14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it. 15
If ye love me, keep my commandments. 16 And I will pray the Father,
and he shall give you another
Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; 17 Even
the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not,
neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be
in you. 18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you. Yes indeed, Scripture attests that the third person of the
Godhead is the Son of God, before He was Incarnated. At His Incarnation, he emptied himself of
his Divine Nature ONLY, His omniscient, omnipotent, omnipresent, life, His
essential substance, the one eternal spirit, which is the substance of the
Father and the Son, and bequeathed it to us for the purpose of curing the sin
problem and restoring man to the image of God, which he had before Adam
sinned. That is the express purpose of
the Holy Spirit. So to say that
works—empowered by the Holy Spirit, are not efficacious (meritorious) toward
our salvation, is blasphemy, because those works are as much a free gift of
grace as is pardon for sin, and without those works of empowerment, no man
could be saved except in sin, rather than from sin. We were promised the Divine Nature (Only—unmixed with humanity)
as a gift for overcoming the lust and sin of the world: Mar 4:19 And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of
riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it
becometh unfruitful. 2Pe 1:4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding
great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine
nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through
lust. Tts 2:12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts,
we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; "But the doctrine is now largely taught that the Gospel of
Christ has made the law of God of no effect that by 'believing' we are
released from the necessity of being doers of the word. But this is the
doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which Christ so unsparingly condemned.... Those who are teaching this doctrine today have much to say in
regard to faith and the righteousness of Christ but they pervert the truth,
and make it serve the cause of error. They declare that we have only to
believe on Jesus Christ, and that faith is all-sufficient that the
righteousness of Christ is to be the sinners credentials that this imputed
righteousness fulfils the law for us, and that we are under no obligation to
obey the law of God. This class claim that Christ came to save sinners, and
that he has saved them. "I am saved,' they will repeat over and over
again. But are they saved while transgressing the law of Jehovah?--No for the
garments of Christ's righteousness are not a cloak for iniquity: Such
teaching is a gross deception, and Christ becomes to these persons a
stumbling-block as he did to the Jews,--to the Jews because hey would not
receive him as their personal Saviour to these professed believers in Christ,
because they separate Christ and the Law, and regard faith as a substitute
for obedience. They separate the Father and the Son, the Saviour of the
world. Virtually they teach, both by precept and example, that Christ, by his
death, saves men in their transgressions." E. G. White, The Signs of the Times, Vol. 3,
363, col. 1. "Christ has plainly taught that those who persist in open
sin must be separated from the church..." Christ's Object Lessons, 71. This labor of purifying the church is a painful work, but one
that must not be neglected, if the church would have the commendation of
God." E. G. White, Review and
Herald Articles, 06-07-1887, paragraph 16.
Thorns--Nicolaitans to be Separated From the Church--"It is
our work to know our special failings and sins, which cause darkness and
spiritual feebleness, and quenched our first love. Is it worldliness? Is it
selfishness? Is it the love of self-esteem? Is it striving to be first? Is it
the sin of sensuality that is intensely active? Is it the sin of the
Nicolaitans, turning the grace of god into lasciviousness? Is it the misuse
and abuse of great light and opportunities and privileges, marking boasted
claims to wisdom and religious knowledge, while the life and character are inconsistent
and immoral? Whatever it is that has been petted and cultivated until it has
become strong and overmastering, make determined efforts to overcome, else
you will be lost. It is these cherished sins, abhorrent to God, that make
enfeebled moral courage, and leave you to choose to walk apart from God,
while you retain a miserable, heartless, outward form. Once the soul was all
aglow with the love for Jesus but all this is changed. The great Head who
moves in the midst of his candlesticks will never be without a church. There
will be faithless ones who will go out from us because they were not of us.
There will be apostasies. But 'nevertheless the foundation of God standeth
sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his.' There will be
those who are evil, who hold the truth in unrighteousness, who are sensual,
who are controlled by the master-worker in all evil, who will have to be
separated from the church."... This labor of purifying the church is a painful work, but one
that must not be neglected, if the church would have the commendation of
God." E. G. White, Review and
Herald Articles, 06-07-1887, paragraph 16. "Any connection with infidels and UNBELIEVERS which would
identify us with them is FORBIDDEN by the word. We are to come out from them
and be separate. in no case are we to link ourselves with them in their plans
or work." E. G. White, Fundamentals
of Christian Education, 482. "I saw that since the second angel proclaimed the fall of
the churches, they have been growing more and more corrupt. They bear the
name of being Christ's followers yet it is IMPOSSIBLE to distinguish them
from ...Satan has taken FULL POSSESSION of the churches as a body." E.G.
White, Early Writings, 273. The
Severity and Intensity of the Messenger is Always Misunderstood by the
Apostates Moses’
example "Those who plead that great charity must be exercised toward
the transgressors of God's commandments, may see in this instance of God's
retributive justice [the slaying of
the golden calf worshippers] how He regards that charity that would
cloak sin, or shield those in iniquity. The ringleaders in this
wickedness, without respect to friendship or kindred, were to be punished
with death. Only those were slain who stood forth in bold defiance to
vindicate their conduct [such as saying they were just doing what sinners
do], while those who repented of their sins, and humbled themselves, were
spared. Some would call the prompt and decided measures taken, a hard and severe spirit. But Moses
here received from the mouth of God, the interpretation of, or what he calls,
sanctification. In the prompt decisive
act of showing their abhorrence of such disobedience and transgression, they
sanctified themselves. This
integrity, this undeviating faithfulness, brought a blessing upon the tribe
who performed the act of terrible justice.... Moses
represents a class who will call sin by its right name a class that will give
no place to sin and wrong, but will purge it from among them. Our abhorrence of sin cannot be too strong,
if we are controlled by no personal, selfish feelings, if we labor
disinterestedly for the salvation of souls, pleading in behalf of the erring,
and those blinded by their own transgressions.... Moses manifested his great love for Israel in his entreaty to the
Lord to forgive their sin, or blot his name out of the book which he had
written [which Moses prayed for the
repentant ones after the unrepentant were killed]. His intercessions here
illustrate Christ's love and mediation for the sinful race. But the Lord
refused to let Moses suffer for the sins of His backsliding people. He
declared to him that those who had sinned against him he would blot out of
his book which he had written for the righteous should not suffer for the
guilt of the sinner. The book here referred to is the book of records in
Heaven, in which every name is inscribed, and the acts of all, their sins,
and obedience, are faithfully written. When
individuals commit sins which are too grievous for the Lord to pardon, their
names are erased from the book, and they are devoted to destruction."
E.G. White, Signs of the Times,
Vol. 1, p. 160. Do individuals commit sin which are too grievous for the Lord to
pardon so that their names are forever erased from the book of life. Indeed, but when you remind them of
unpardonable sins, as defined by God in Jeremiah 11:9-15, and Isaiah 8:9-13,
they think you too severe, unloving and uncharitable. Try it!
You will find this to be true. “The servants
of God should manifest a tender, compassionate spirit and show to all that
they are not actuated by any personal motives in their dealings with the
people, and that they
do not take delight in giving messages of wrath in the name of the Lord. “Those who
seek to cloak sin and make it appear less aggravating to the mind of the
offender are doing the work of the false prophets and may expect the
retributive wrath of God to follow such a course. The Lord will never accommodate His ways to the wishes of corrupt
men.” —4 Testimonies,
185. There are times
that I have failed to be as patient and compassionate as I should have been,
but I have always apologized and fell at the feet of Jesus in
repentance. If there are any who feel
that I did not apologize for any act toward them, I hereby apologize to you
and God. In Jesus’ name, Ron Beaulieu. “Those who
have in the fear of God ventured out to faithfully meet error and sin,
calling sin by its right name, have discharged a disagreeable duty with much
suffering of feelings to themselves; but they get the sympathy of but few and
suffer the neglect of many. The sympathizers are on the wrong side, and they
carry out the purposes of Satan to defeat the design of God. Reproofs
always hurt human nature. Many are the souls that have been destroyed by the
unwise sympathy of their brethren; for, because the brethren sympathized with
them, they thought they must indeed have been abused, and that the
reprover was all wrong and had a bad spirit. The only hope for sinners in Zion is
to fully see and confess their wrongs, and put them away. Those who step in to destroy the edge of
sharp reproof that God sends, saying that the reprover was partly wrong and
the reproved was not just right, please the enemy. “Any way that Satan can
devise to make the reproofs of none effect will accomplish his design. Some
will lay blame upon the one whom God has sent with a message of warning,
saying, He is too severe; and in so doing they become responsible for the
soul of the sinner whom God desired to save, and to whom, because He loved
him, He sent correction, that he might humble his soul before God and put his
sins from him. These false sympathizers will have an account to settle
with the Master by-and-by for their work of death.”—3 Testimonies, 328-329. “Those whom God has chosen for an important work have ever been
received with distrust and suspicion. Anciently, when Elijah was sent with a
message from God to the people, they did not heed the warning. They thought
him unnecessarily severe. They even thought that he must have
lost his senses because he denounced them, the favored people of God, as
sinners, and their crimes as so aggravated that the judgments of God would
awaken against them. Satan and his host have ever been arrayed
against those who bear the message of warning and who reprove sins. The unconsecrated will also be united
with the adversary of souls, to make the work of God’s faithful servants as
hard as possible.”—3 Testimonies,
261. I am accused daily on some SDA internet forums of having lost my
senses and/or become unbalanced in mind. The individuals who so charge me
make my work as hard as possible with their Satanic tirades against me and
the truth I speak to them. This is how
we experience a small draught from the cup Jesus drank of, and no one will be
saved without drinking from this cup in some measure. Bible proof? Surely: Mat 19:29 And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren,
or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my
name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting
life. Jer 5:7 How shall I pardon thee for this? thy children have
forsaken me, and sworn by [them that are] no gods: when I had fed them to the
full, they then committed adultery, and assembled themselves by troops in the
harlots' houses. Phl 3:10 That I may know him, and the
power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made
conformable unto his death; Col 1:24 Who now rejoice in my sufferings
for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my
flesh for his body's sake, which is the church: 1Pe 4:13 But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are
partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye
may be glad also with exceeding joy. Tts 2:12 Teaching us that, denying
ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and
godly, in this present world; 2Ti
3:12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer
persecution. Have you suffered persecution for Jesus
lately? Here is a sample of what I
endure on a daily basis, and I quote: Ron, And on and on the accusations go. I have been called
the Babel kid, Son of Satan, crazy, a fool, and every evil adjective I can
think of. But we are not to focus on
the blackballs. I have given you but a
small sample and the worst, far worst, I have not revealed. It seems that SDA’s believe that as long as they
don’t claim to be a prophet or messenger, they can exhibit all manner of hate
toward one who does hold such office, and be impervious in accountability to
God, for any violation of the very acts they attribute to God’s servants. God bless all who are searching as for hidden
treasure, Ron Beaulieu |
