Where's the Fight?
I guess there is only one good that comes out of this. This establishes even more than Ellen White is a prophet, because she saw that many Adventists would fall off the path after the light behind them went out--the Investigative Judgment.
Just the fact that she predicted this should make you "Progressive Seventh-Day Adventist's" hairs stand on end.
It is very rarely that I would ever want to post such strong words about a few paragraphs, but I must admit I found the whole exercise quite silly. It betrays the noble ends which I believe this blog sometimes seeks to achieve - although quite candidly it often does not seem to do so these days. The paragraphs led me to think that the church had finally reached a place where administrators were prepared to say that some things are not written in stone - and it was music to my ears.
God forbid that such irresponsibility in journalism should ever be seen again on this or any other forum or website; where some of the deeply worrying aspects of Seventh-day Adventism are openly debated and (hopefully) intelligently discussed.
I am so proud to have once been associated with the church; I worked in publishing for many years in Africa and I suppose I made a considerable contribution - or so the final letter from those who oversaw my work said, anyway. I often found myself working into the early hours of the morning as I journeyed over the southern countries of that lovely continent - those were the greatest years of my life. So to find that the church had at last thought things through was quite delightful - until I discovered it was not the case at all.
No wonder there seem to be far less people posting comments on this blog nowadays. I have an idea there will be even less after this inexplicable blunder . . .
