AND THE SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH PLAYS THE HARLOT!!
"Although
it is true that there was a period in the life of
the Seventh-day Adventist Church when the
denomination took a distinctly anti-Roman Catholic
viewpoint, and the term "hierarchy" was used in a
pejorative sense to refer to the papal form of
church governance,
that attitude on the church's part was nothing more
than a manifestation of widespread anti-popery among
conservative Protestant denominations in the early
part of this century and the latter part of the
last, and which has now
been consigned to the historical trash heap so far
as the Seventh-day Adventist Church is concerned."
From EEOC vs. PPPA (1975 Reply Brief for SDA
Defendants in Support of Motion for Summary Judgment)
The S.D.A. Church invited
the Vatican to
send an official observer to the Conference session
of 1990. "Rev.
Thomas J. Murphy, director of the Indianapolis
archdiocesan office of ecumenism, acted as the Vatican observer. He
addressed the conference July 10," (The Arkansas
Catholic, July 29, 1990.) The
Vatican observer spoke of prayers being offered
within the archdiocesan community for the "blessed
success of this General Conference," and closed his
remarks with a prayer from the liturgy of the Roman
Church, (Ibid.) In
1995 Monsignor John A. Radano represented the Church
of Rome, and the Vatican flag was included in the
Parade of Nations at the end of the General
Conference session.
In 2000 the designated Vatican observer
again was Monsignor John A. Radano. Elder
B. B. Beach introduced Monsignor Radano as "an old
friend with whom we've been
in contact for many years, who attended the session
in Utrecht five years ago," (Adventist
Review, July 11, 2000, p. 25; emphasis
supplied.) Monsignor
Radano is a staff member of the Pontifical Council
for Promoting Christian Unity. His
name occurs time and again in reports of ecumenical
dialogues with the Church of Rome. The
Catholic Encyclopedia states,
"Those only bear the title of Monsignor, who are familiares
summi pontificis, those who, by virtue of
some distinction bestowed upon them, belong as it
were to the family and retinue of the Holy Father."
