Dr.
Herschel Hughes' Response to My Letter to Him
Click to go to our Home PageDear Reader, Today, January 23, 2006, I received an e-mail
response from an e-mail I wrote to Dr. Herschel Hughes, regarding a sermon he
gave at the Loma Linda SDA church, which he said was a message of God to
him. I commented on his message in the
following document: https://members.tripod.com/omega77/falsetestimony.htm You may download his sermon at the following
link: http://www.amessagefromgodtothesdachurch.com/ Here is Dr. Hughe’s response to my e-mail to him. My e-mail appears below his response: “In response to your e-mail: Some of you are calling this MY message, but I had
nothing to with the origin of it. And
I have no agenda what-so-ever regarding your response to it. As a life-long Adventist, I was surprised
as you were by much of its content.
Even though I suspected it was true in my heart, I was most personally
hurt by God’s clear pronouncement that my beloved Ellen White was a false
prophet. At one time I believed in her
with all my heart and I did everything I could to promote her writings. But when God clearly speaks, I believe His
words over hers. There were many confirmations that message came from
God. One of the most profound of these
is that fact that God has revealed these truths to many Adventist leaders (ministers, conference
presidents and others like myself).
Many who have contradicted me have asked for names of these people,
but I’m not at liberty to reveal them.
I’m hoping, however, that they will soon come forward, as it would
certainly be more convincing for you and to the Church as a whole. The reality is that some of those people
have responded to this message simply by leaving the church. Many people have said this message contradicts
scripture, but the only thing that is being challenged are our Adventist interpretations
of scripture that already conflict with mainstream Christianity, and other
established historical facts. I
believe God wants us to abandon the idea that we are more special than other
Christians. He wants us to humbly be a
part of the body of Christ, rather than those who attack and confuse the
body; and arrogantly teach that we are better than the rest of the body
because we are the remnant, the chosen people of God in the end times. Christ hates the sin of pride and arrogance, He even
goes on to set Himself against the proud, and we as a church are overflowing
with these things. It in not my job to defend what God has spoken. My only job is to deliver His message,
which I have done. Now it is your job
to decide what you are going to do with it.
Be aware that once you have heard what God has said, you will be held
accountable for it, also, you can’t say you were never warned. Open your heart and fervently pray for
discernment from the Holy Spirit, and if you do so sincerely, He will reveal
that God has truly spoken these words. This is our
own message from God to our
church. Cherish it and believe in it.” In Christ’s Love, Dr. Herschel Hughes ----- Original Message ----- From: Ron Beaulieu To: contact@amessagefromgodtothesdachurch.com

contrary to you message, I meant specifically regarding the conditions for
salvation. I am aware that you believe they are wrong in the Sanctuary
message, Sabbath observance, that the church is the remnant, the
Investigative judgement
etc. I mean conditions for salvation only. Thanks, Ron Beaulieu |
