Interfaith Worship: An Adventist Pastor from the Central Bolivian Mission Joined Witch Doctors as Food and Drink Offerings were made to the "Sacred Pachamama" (Earth Goddess)

"They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not." Deuteronomy 32:17.

On August 6, 2023, in the city of Oruro, Bolivia, political and religious leaders celebrated an interfaith religious worship service in which Shamans, or guides to the spirit world, offered "food and drinks to the sacred Pachamama," according to news sources. Pachamama is a term used in the Andes region of South America and is a reference to Mother Earth. She is worshipped as a deity who, according to Inca mythology, is the source of life, providing everything needed for survival.

During the interfaith ceremony, various Shamans, who claim to be guides to the spirit world and to have the power to interact with the Andean gods, openly offered food and drink offerings to Pachamama. This was pure divination taking place. The offerings of food and drinks to Pachamama are acts of worship, as they sought favors from the earth goddess. These were gestures of gratitude and devotion. They were openly seeking protection from Pachamama.

The local press also reported that Seventh-day Adventist Pastor Guillermo Cruz Mamani, from the "Central Bolivian Mission," was present and represented the Adventist Church. During the interfaith service, Pastor Guillermo Cruz Mamani expressed that "this interfaith religious ceremony is something very special for all Bolivians."

Idolatry is something that is abhorred by God (Exodus 20:1-6). During this interfaith celebration, God is made equal to Pachamama, or Mother Earth. Truth and error, light and darkness, and Christ and Beelzebub become one of the same-all in the name of peace and unity! They are crying, "Peace, peace; when there is no peace" (Jeremiah 6:14). Far from obtaining peace, they are "treasuring up wrath unto the day of wrath" (Romans 2:5).

Our pastors and leaders seem to believe that they can all unite with paganism and pantheistic expressions and that everything will be fine. If we don't warn people about idolatry, we don't love them. We become disingenuous by attending these ecumenical encounters. Are we going to accept and tolerate interfaith idolatry on earth only to reject it in heaven? We will never be in heaven if we believe that we can simply remain silent during a time when Baal worship is being universally revived.
