Fastidious Sabbath Observers

If the Seventh-day Adventist church were honorable, they would police themselves. Even the Universal Church of Catholic Pedophiles agree to compensate their victims if the courts of this world order them to.

The SDA attitude that says, "we're only going to investigate abuse by the SDA church if threatened and compelled by worldly influences to do so" demonstrates their infidelity to God's requirements.

The standard of the world is the standard of the church! Where does that leave us?

There is written against the Seventh-day Adventist church in the books of heaven, a betrayal of the most sacred trusts and treachery to the kingdom of Christ. Seventh-day Adventists neither care nor comprehend the greatness of the divine requirement (General Conference Daily Bulletin, February 27, 1893). They are content resembling first century Judaism, with their emphasis on fastidious Sabbath observance.

Hear the word of the LORD,
You rulers of Sodom;
Give ear to the law of our God,
You people of Gomorrah:
"To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices to Me?"
Says the LORD.
"I have had enough of burnt offerings of rams
And the fat of fed cattle.
I do not delight in the blood of bulls,
Or of lambs or goats.

"When you come to appear before Me,
Who has required this from your hand,
To trample My courts?
Bring no more futile sacrifices;
Incense is an abomination to Me.
The New Moons, the Sabbaths, and the calling of assemblies—
I cannot endure iniquity and the sacred meeting.
Your New Moons and your appointed feasts
My soul hates;
They are a trouble to Me,
I am weary of bearing them.
When you spread out your hands,
I will hide My eyes from you;
Even though you make many prayers,
I will not hear.
Your hands are full of blood.

"Wash yourselves, make yourselves clean;
Put away the evil of your doings from before My eyes.
Cease to do evil,
Learn to do good;
Seek justice,
Rebuke the oppressor;
Defend the fatherless,
Plead for the widow."
Isaiah 1:10-17.

The Catholic crime of covering up spiritual abuse is practiced by Seventh-day Adventists.
