The term Babylon, derived from Babel, and signifying confusion, is applied in Scripture to the various forms of false or apostate religion. But the message announcing the fall of Babylon must apply to some religious body that was once pure, and has become corrupt. It cannot be the Romish Church which is here meant; for that church has been in a fallen condition for many centuries. But how appropriate the figure as applied to the Protestant churches, all professing to derive their doctrines from the Bible, yet divided into almost innumerable sects. The unity for which Christ prayed does not exist. Instead of one Lord, one faith, one baptism, there are numberless conflicting creeds and theories. Religious faith appears so confused and discordant that the world know not what to believe as truth. God is not in all this; it is the work of man,--the work of Satan. {4SP 232.2}
That would obviously include SDA as well. WHAT GREAT AND MIGHTY INSIGHT! ///

Stephen Bohr has a very interesting theory on this. it deals with climate change.
Since it is an important topic, people are trying to find ways to be more conservative. Bohr believes that since the Pope has taken great interest in climate change, he may be leading in the Sunday law by asking for a day to let the earth rest as well as man, and using it for a day to be with family. That is a good and marvelous thing! That is what God intended. Here are His words: " Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it." -- Exod. 20:8-11 Even the animals must rest, and the plants and the land itself, as it is written: " to fulfill the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land had enjoyed her Sabbaths. As long as she lay desolate she kept Sabbath, to fulfill seventy years." -- 2 Chron. 36:21 But SDA are not interested in the truth, but live by every word that proceeds from the mouth of Ellen White, saying, "We must hear it first from the sop before we believe it. Even if one were to say the moon was a big fat rock, we ask ourselves whether EGW said anything like that." ///

And the faithful will sometimes have more pressure from fellow so-called "Adventists" than others. It's said that not 1 in 20 will be saved. Were you not aware of that statement? People will be people no matter what their denomination is.

The warning to SDA's is the warning to the Laodiceans. The message to the Laodiceans is applicable to Seventh-day Adventists who have had great light and have not walked in the light. It is those who have made great profession, but have not kept in step with their Leader, that will be spewed out of His mouth unless they repent. The message to pronounce the Seventh-Day Adventist Church Babylon, and call the people of God out of her, does not come from any heavenly messenger, or any human agent inspired by the Spirit of God. {2SM 66.2} 14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: 15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?

It is not that we are rich or to say we have no need, but because you yourself have proven, by your own actions, to be a false prophet, a myopic seer, a charlatan, a conjurer of non-existent meanings, a lover of crystal balls: a foolhardy and brazen condemner of those who point out these things in you, things that are plainly apparent. Tell me: where is the righteousness of a boy who is caught with his hand in the cookie jar, withdraws it, hastily wipes his mouth of crumbs and loudly declares himself innocent -- all the while berating you for not knocking before you entered your own kitchen? Would you trust him at your table alone again? ///
