SDA Issues - Playing Ring Around The Fire?

Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? not one.
 Job 14:4

"Pagan idolatry is experiencing a resurgence in our day. New relationships are being forged between pagans, spiritualists,
indigenous faiths, pantheists, Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, Roman Catholics, Evangelicals, Seventh-day Adventists and many others.

These modern-day interfaith encounters are starting to resembles the idolatrous golden calf worship service described in Exodus 32:1-4.
The Religions for Peace recently celebrated their 10th World Assembly in Lindau, Germany on August 20-23, 2019. Nine hundred delegates from over 100 countries came together to “foster multi-religious cooperation.”

The guiding “light” for this ecumenical extravaganza was the
Ring of Peace.” A 25-foot wooden ring-shaped sculpture was erected by the organizers to be a “permanent, multi-faith symbol” of interfaith cooperation.

According to the creators of this modern-day idol, the ring is supposed to represent the wheel of Buddha, the ring of the Prophet Mohammed, the ring of King Solomon and Lessing’s Ring Parable – a story which equates different faiths as one.

The “Ring of Peace” is a monument to every deity known to man – Jesus, Allah, Shiva, Buddha, Brahma, Ganesha, Mahavira, Vishnu, Durga and a thousand other gods.
This apparently means that Jesus, Buddha and Krishna are all good buddies who complete each other. This is beyond belief!

There were two Christian news sources and one Catholic news source that reported on the Seventh-day Adventist Church’s involvement during the Religions for Peace 10th World Assembly
in Lindau, Germany. Rebecca Boakye, assistant to the director of Adventist Development and Relief Agency in Germany, was in attendance.
On day two of this event Rebecca Boakye was interviewed during the “Role of Women” MENA (Middle East and North Africa) session hosted by ordained female Bishop Petra Bosse-Huber from the Evangelical Church in Germany.
What in the world is going on here?
Why is Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA) even here?
What does ecumenism and paganism
have to do with disaster relief?

Here are some of the principles and policies they plan to implement in our world:
  • equitable distribution of wealth
  • promotion of “green congregations
  • Paris Agreement on climate change
  • Immigration
  • Disarmament
  • Reconciliation between religions
  • Social justice
The essence and substance of Rome’s ecumenical message is a call to “come in.”
This stands in direct opposition to the work of God’s people in these last days which is a call to “come out.”

But once you destroy the absoluteness and certainty of the Seventh-day Adventist prophetic mission and message then the door is open to all the deadly errors and heresies of the ecumenical movement."
