All Roads Lead to Rome

All Roads Lead to Rome

We are seeing the final act of the drama develop before our eyes. The union of all the churches is an event of the end-times that will happen only one time - unlike wars, earthquakes and famines which are events that repeat themselves throughout history. Protestants are becoming absorbed into the Roman Catholic Church and this significant act on the part of Protestantism will lay the foundation for setting up the image of the beast in America.

"And his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.” Revelation 13:3.

A new poll has come out confirming that Catholics and Protestants have become indistinguishable from each other. Pew Research Center conducted a survey on the eve of the 500 Anniversary of the Protestant Reformation that states that both Protestants and Catholics in Europe and in the U.S. "now overwhelmingly express a willingness to accept each other as neighbors and even as family members." (http://www.pewforum.org/2017/08/31/after-500-years-reformation-era-divisions-have-lost-much-of-their-potency)

According to the new poll, in Protestant Germany, the birthplace of Martin Luther's Reformation, 78% of Protestants believe that their distinctive faith is more similar and more in common to Roman Catholicism and only 19% of Protestants believe the two faiths are actually "different." These feelings that Protestants and Catholics have more similarities than differences is also shared by Roman Catholics and Protestants all throughout Europe and even in America. This is what 50 years of ecumenism will do to you; it will bring you back to Rome.

Rome's agents have used the ecumenical movement to first bring the Protestant Churches to the table, and now after 50 years of "dialog" they have come to view matters in the same light. Protestantism is now converting over to Roman Catholicism and is "wondering after the beast." All of Europe is going over to Rome and Protestant America is next in the agenda:

"The Protestants of the United States will be foremost in stretching their hands across the gulf to grasp the hand of Spiritualism; they will reach over the abyss to clasp hands with the Roman power; and under the influence of this threefold union, this country will follow in the steps of Rome in trampling on the rights of conscience" (Great Controversy, 588).

The image of the beast is forming before our eyes as we see these words being fulfilled. When this prophetic statement was written over 100 years ago, at that time any hopes of reconciliation between Catholics and Protestants seemed impossible to everyone. But look at the situation today - Protestants can't seem to compromise their faith fast enough! They are running to Rome for reconciliation and are shedding the image of being a "rebellious daughter." They are returning by and large, collectively, to their "mother church."

The overwhelming majority today see these previously irreconcilable faiths as identical in almost every way. When Rome looks at the Protestant churches she sees an image of herself. This is scary when you think about it because Rome never changes. The goal of Rome has almost been complete, which is to totally abolish the Reformation's "protest." The old, long-standing, historical, Protestant faith with its protest has been an obstacle in preventing Rome from regaining her supremacy in both spiritual and political matters. However, every obstacle that is standing in the way must be removed as Rome achieves her ultimate objective. The Reformation's protest has been silenced all thanks to the disastrous results of the Vatican-Protestant interfaith dialog and cooperation. May this be a warning sign to every church and to every Christian believer.

"It was by associating with idolaters and joining in their festivities that the Hebrews were led to transgress God's law and bring His judgments upon the nation. So now it is by leading the followers of Christ to associate with the ungodly and unite in their amusements that Satan is most successful in alluring them into sin. 'Come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean.' 2 Corinthians 6:17" (Patriarchs and Prophets, 458).

Ellen G. White's Warning and Its Fulfillment in Worldly Adventist Academies
On December 16, 2025, the Seventh-day Adventist Academy in Pulierranghy, India, held a Christmas program that featured numerous Santa Clauses, played by students and faculty. [1] The students jumped, shouted, and danced to loud music, while the staff on stage moved in a manner reminiscent of pure paganism. Ellen G. White issued one of her most solemn end-time warnings-one that speaks to many of our institutions. Referring to a bedlam of

On Sunday, January 18, 2026, Giovanni Caccamo, a Seventh-day Adventist pastor, publicly embraced Roman Catholic Bishop Antonio Napolioni during an ecumenical worship service commemorating the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity. The gesture symbolized a visible unity between the Seventh-day Adventist Church and the Roman Catholic Church in Italy within a formal ecumenical setting. Giovanni Caccamo is the same Adventist pastor who previously signed the Ecumenical Charter-a document affirming faith

Pope Leo XIV to Ecumenical Leaders: "We Are One, Let's Make It Visible"
Ecumenism is indeed fulfilling prophecy-but not the prophecy God calls His people to advance or embrace. The world is being drawn into a single religious and political body, as revealed by Scripture: "And all the world wondered after the beast" (Revelation 13:3). This is not a revival of godliness; it is universal apostasy-a global movement that, under the appearance of unity, peace, and love, is leading people away from Bible

What is now evident is that the initiative to establish Sunday as a uniform day of rest is much further along than initially thought. The president of the Heritage Foundation, Kevin Roberts, has already actively participated in formal public policy discussions related to the document "Saving America by Saving the Family: A Foundation for the Next 250 Years" with members of the U.S. Congress and the Trump administration.

The Vatican Publishes Weekly "Lord's Day Reflections" to be Read on Sundays
Every week, the Vatican prepares special readings for Sunday designed to help deepen the faith of the Catholic community. These special Sunday readings are called "Lord's Day Reflections." Once again, the public is being manipulated into embracing the Sunday rest agenda. The Vatican decrees Sunday as the Lord's Day, and the world follows. However, saying that Sunday is the Lord's Day is simply not true. Yet this lie has been

"The Antichrist," written by David Lackey, was the featured article in the Signs of the Times for March 2023. Despite the fact that the article "The Antichrist" contained a total of 2,167 words, it is quite remarkable that the words "Papacy," "pope," "Rome," "Vatican," or "Catholic" don't appear anywhere in this essay. Instead, the current editors and writers at the Signs of the Times are telling us that the Antichrist
Ecumenism Will Pave the Way for the Mark of the Beast Crisis
Ecumenism has no place in Adventism. When church leaders attend these interfaith ceremonies designed to unite the churches, exalt Sunday worship, promote spiritualism, reject biblical truth, and unite us under one head, Rome, we must recognize that our participation means we are sanctioning their efforts and thus demonstrating our support. This is a scandal for our people as well as all other religions, and it has serious consequences. Notice how

On October 10, 2021, Seventh-day Adventists joined an ecumenical event at the Cathedral of Trent, the same Roman Catholic building where the Council of Trent was held. The Council of Trent (1545-1563) was the official Roman Catholic response to the Protestant Reformation. This council affirmed the supremacy of the papacy, condemned the Protestant Reformers, revitalized the Inquisition, maintained tradition above Scripture and placed the Bible on a list of forbidden
