Penang Adventist Hospital Wishes you a Happy Deepavali
The celebration of Deepavali is associated with Lord Krishna, a major Hindu god. During the Deepavali festival, which usually lasts about 5 days, worshipers commemorate Lord Krishna’s victory over the cruel demon known as Narakasura. It is said that this demon oppressed the people until the people prayed to Krishna, who responded by killing Narakasura during a battle. Therefore, Deepavali commemorates Krishna defeating Narakasura.Now we have Penang Adventist Hospital, one of our institutions, celebrating the pagan errors of Hinduism. On November 3, 2021, the management team of Penang Adventist Hospital posted a “Happy Deepavali” greeting to the Hindu community on their Facebook page. The message also called for the “divine light of Deepavali to fill every heart and home with peace and endless joy.” Why would Seventh-day Adventists promote the false religions of the East and publish these tributes to our members? Is the church a human, secular and ecumenical organization? If so, let us celebrate every pagan deity known to man. But if the church is a divine institution established by God, why are we promoting false gods on church-owned media sites?
Deepavali is celebrated by prayers and offerings to the gods in different temples. This is pagan worship in heathen temples. Christ has no part in this celebration; in fact, there is no place in Scripture that can harmonize heathenism with Christianity. It is Rome’s ecumenical movement that seeks to mix the different religions by looking for the so-called similarities between them. Thanks to the agents of ecumenism (Rome) found within Adventism, we can now celebrate “Happy Deepavali,” a pagan religious holiday. Rome is setting the stage for all the world’s religions to unite. Rather than promoting this agenda, we should proclaim God’s final warning message to the world and to our people, who are being led blindly into the final ecumenical apostasy.

140+ Ways to Promote Rome's Mark of Authority-Sunday Sacredness
"The enforcement of Sunday-keeping on the part of Protestant churches is an enforcement of the worship of the papacy-of the beast" (Great Controversy, p. 448).
When Protestant churches promote and enforce Sunday worship as a mandated day of rest and reverence, they are upholding a tradition that originates not from Scripture, but from the authority of the Papacy. The Bible clearly identifies the seventh day, Saturday, as the true Sabbath instituted…

Is a Historic Alliance Forming Between Pope Leo XIV and Donald Trump?
If Pope Leo XIV and Donald Trump were to forge a strong working relationship, this could be seen, according to the biblical prophecies of Revelation 13, as the fulfillment of the coming alliance between the two beasts. In this interpretation, Rome, the first beast, is represented by a global apostate religious power, and the second beast symbolizes Protestant America. Together, they will form a strategic partnership that will exert global…
