SDA Issues: When Promoting Ecumenicism Betrays Biblicl Doctrines

"
Journey Films will be producing a 2-hour documentary film called “Sabbath.” According to the filmmakers, this documentary “explores the history of one of the world’s most important spiritual practices and its timeless relevance for a stressed-out, modern world.” They also state that the Sabbath is “God’s invitation” for “a more sustainable way of life.”
The documentary features Roman Catholic, Protestant, Seventh-day Adventist, Muslim, and Jewish religious leaders and experts as they all promote the importance of the Sabbath and the need for rest.
The major problem with this project is that they are pushing for “a” Sabbath rest, regardless of whether it’s Saturday, Sunday, or any other day. The video misquotes Exodus 20:10, the 4th Commandment, by referring to the seventh day as “a” Sabbath day and not “the” Sabbath day. In essence, this asserts that Saturday is merely one day of rest among many. This opens the door for Sunday to also be the Sabbath day. Once again, they are attempting to change times and laws (Daniel 7:25).
This conflicts with the heart of Seventh-day Adventism, which emphasizes the seventh day as the Sabbath of the Lord. However, promoting a generic day of rest, or Sunday, is in keeping with the modern ecumenical movement. At the center of the ecumenical movement is the policy of downplaying what we cannot agree on. At the very heart of the Advent Movement is the conviction that we should emphasize our distinctive doctrines and the Three Angels’ Messages, especially the seventh-day Sabbath." AdventMessenger
