What Adventist books do they republish? As to whether we should buy Bibles from Zondervan, I think is at the heart of the question that Rick has asked about the KJV. Can we trust other versions? It is interesting to note that EGW did quote from the RV and ASV. But by far, most quotes of hers come from the KJV.

I was doing research on the King James Version when I came across Chick Publications. Does anyone know who they are and what they teach as they have a lot of beliefs and doctrines on their site which Adventist hold.

If Chick publications knows the secrets of the Catholic church, how is it they have been blinded to the work of Ribera and have accepted futurism?

If we believe Alberto Rivera published by Chick, then the Jesuits have infiltrated the SDA church at the highest levels. This should give us pause when we proclaim the favored opinions of the upper echelons. It should give us pause to think that we are consolidating our publishing houses effectively shutting out opinions at variance with the leadership.

I don't think there has been a combining of "publishing".

Also they believe Alberto Rivera a whole lot more than the majority of Adventists do.

And if Rivera is right, what do you think the leadership would say about Rivera?

As individual Adventists, we need to know the truth for ourselves, and not rely on the leadership to tell us what it is.

Throughout Christendom, Protestantism was menaced by formidable foes. The first triumphs of the Reformation past, Rome summoned new forces, hoping to accomplish its destruction. At this time, the order of the Jesuits was created, the most cruel, unscrupulous, and powerful of all the champions of popery. Cut off from every earthly tie and human interest, dead to the claims of natural affection, reason and conscience wholly silenced, they knew no rule, no tie, but that of their order, and no duty but to extend its power. The gospel of Christ had enabled its adherents to meet danger and endure suffering, undismayed by cold, hunger, toil, and poverty, to uphold the banner of truth in face of the rack, the dungeon, and the stake. To combat these forces, Jesuitism inspired its followers with a fanaticism that enabled them to endure like dangers, and to oppose to the power of truth all the weapons of deception. There was no crime too great for them to commit, no deception too base for them to practice, no disguise too difficult for them to assume. Vowed to perpetual poverty and humility, it was their studied aim to secure wealth and power, to be devoted to the overthrow of Protestantism, and the re-establishment of the papal supremacy. {GC88 234.2}

When appearing as members of their order, they wore a garb of sanctity, visiting prisons and hospitals, ministering

to the sick and the poor, professing to have renounced the world, and bearing the sacred name of Jesus, who went about doing good. But under this blameless exterior the most criminal and deadly purposes were concealed. It was a fundamental principle of the order that the end justifies the means. By this code, lying, theft, perjury, assassination, were not only pardonable but commendable, when they served the interests of the church. Under various disguises the Jesuits worked their way into offices of State, climbing up to be the counselors of kings, and shaping the policy of nations. They became servants, to act as spies upon their masters. They established colleges for the sons of princes and nobles, and schools for the common people; and the children of Protestant parents were drawn into an observance of popish rites. All the outward pomp and display of the Romish worship was brought to bear to confuse the mind, and dazzle and captivate the imagination; and thus the liberty for which the fathers had toiled and bled was betrayed by the sons. The Jesuits rapidly spread themselves over Europe, and wherever they went, there followed a revival of popery. {GC88 234.3}
