Disney's New Animated Series is about Satan and his Antichrist Daughter
The Walt Disney Company owns FX, an international entertainment cable channel. FX has just released a new animated series called "Little Demon," which tells the story of Satan and his teen-aged daughter, the Antichrist. Disney is back with some more reprehensible behavior. Apparently, grooming children into the LGBT+ lifestyle isn't enough; Disney now wants to lead them directly to Satan.
Just when you thought Disney couldn't sink any lower, they do.…

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…

The complaint alleges that Weimar University did not do enough to stop the "willfully, wantonly, recklessly, torturously, strictly liable, statutorily liable…
The Protest Continues
Americans celebrate the Fourth of July in part to protest Great Britain's tyranny and subjugation of the American Colonies. The Americans were resisting unjust laws, immoral decrees, and tyrannical rulers.
Even though we are commanded to obey governmental authorities as Christians (1 Peter 2:13-17), even these authorities do not have absolute power. Only obedience to God is absolute. And whenever there is a conflict between the two, God is always superior…

It's Time to Stop Playing Church
In the aftermath of a rather unorthodox General Conference Session and the NAD's CALLED Conference - events that unfortunately illustrated just how much we can mimic the rest of the world, perhaps a few Seventh-day Adventists are waking up to the fact that the corporate church no longer resembles the organization established by our pioneers. However, there is something even more concerning than that. There has been a longstanding phenomenon…

Ted Wilson and Ganoune Diop met with Rome's Ecumenical Agents behind closed door …
Just when you think that the duplicity, posturing, and pretense at the 61st General Conference Session couldn't have gotten any worse, it does. A private interfaith lunch took place during the 61st General Conference Session that was not announced, broadcast, live streamed, or made public until after the session had ended and everyone had left. Was this just a coincidence or was it done for good reasons?
This luncheon was held…

A March 15, 2022 headline from HopeMedia reads: "The Adventist Church in Solidarity with the Ukrainian Catholic Church."

One can certainly express regret for the suffering…
Loma Linda University Promotes the Ancient Eastern Meditation Arts of "Sunset Yo …
The following message was posted on Loma Linda University's Instagram page: "What a FUN event! People were lined up to participate in the Fitness Frenzy Sunset Yoga on April 13." Seventh-day Adventist institutions should be much more cautious when it comes to promoting eastern meditations on their social media pages or allowing them on their campus. Many Christians today regard yoga as merely another form of exercise, but it is…

Church-owned AdventHealth has struck an Alliance with the Diabolical Disney Corp …
A major church-owned institution has formed an alliance with Disney, which recently announced that it will intensify its targeting of our children by indoctrinating them with LGBT+ propaganda through its entertainment programming. Why would Adventist organizations that claim to preserve family values and biblical morality join with the most extremist hotbed of LGBT+ sexual militants obsessed with transforming our children into their distorted image?
The Walt Disney Company has spoken out…

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,…
The Inter-European Division Joins the Crusade for Climate Change and Calls the E …
One by one they are dropping like flies, joining the same fashionable climate change movement with the likes of Pope Francis, Greta Thunberg and other globalists.

COP26: Adventism’s New Obsession to Join the Climate Change Movement
It is beyond belief that the Seventh-day Adventist Church does not believe in getting involved in the national debate on abortion or the LGBT+ agenda. No, we can’t get involved in the real moral problems of our time that are so widespread in the world today because we have lost our prophetic voice to defend the law of God in the public arena. So instead of shedding light to these…
Seventh-day Adventists, in Partnership with ADRA, Praise COP26 and will Launch a …
The Seventh-day Adventist Church is adopting the same secular viewpoint on climate change being proposed by COP26, Pope Francis and other globalists. This secular view is one that completely ignores the Holy Scriptures and promotes the radical hysteria that our human civilization will come to an end within the next 10 years or less unless immediate and bold action is taken. On October 29, 2021, the Scottish Mission of Seventh-day…
Our Love for Heresy has Led Us to the Cathedral of Trent (Council of Trent) to S …
