HOW THE ADVENTIST CHURCH ADOPTED THE TRINITY DOCTRINE, IGNORING PIONEERS' BELIEFS

Fundamentals Principles of SDA's in 1889-1914, 1931, and 1981 Yearbooks

"We have no doubt, neither have we had a doubt for years, that the doctrines we hold today are present truth, and that we are nearing the judgment." (E. G. White, Testimonies Vol. 2, p. 355. 1870)

Appearing from 1889-1914 in the SDA Yearbooks

"As elsewhere stated, Seventh-day Adventists have no creed but the Bible; but they hold to certain well-defined points of faith, for which they feel prepared to give a reason "to every man that asketh" them. The following propositions may be taken as a summary of the principal features of their religious faith, upon which there is, so far as we know, entire unanimity throughout the body. They believe,--

I. That there is one God, a personal, spiritual being, the creator of all things, omnipotent, omniscient, and eternal; infinite in wisdom, holiness, justice, goodness, truth, and mercy; unchangeable, and everywhere present by his representative, the Holy Spirit. Ps. 139:7.

II. That there is one Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Eternal Father, the one by whom he created all things, and by whom they do consist;...

III. That the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments were given by inspiration of God, contain a full revelation of his will to man, and are the only infallible rule of faith...." {Fundamental Principles of SDA's no. 1, p. 147}

(Note: in 1872 this statement of beliefs was penned largely by James White in a 14-page leaflet entitled "A Declaration of the Fundamental Principles of the Seventh-day Adventists", and it first appeared in the Signs of the Times issue of 1874. (The Living Witness, 1959, Pacific Press Publishing Association, pp. 1, 2} From there it was incorporated into the Yearbooks of 1889-1914. But, between the years of 1915-1930 there was no 'Statement of Beliefs' appearing in our Yearbooks. What happened in those years?)

"We have nothing to fear for the future, except as we shall forget the way the Lord has led us, and His teaching in our past history." (E. G. White, Life Sketches, p. 196}

"I tell you now, that when I am laid to rest, great changes will take place. I do not know when I shall be taken; and I desire to warn all against the devices of the devil." {E. G. White, Ms. 1, 1915)

Ellen G. White died in 1915. (Note: by 1924 the last of the early pioneers, J. N. Loughborough, was laid to rest)

What great changes took place after she, and all the founding pioneers, died? 1931 Yearbook (re-appearing after 15 years of absence!)

"1. That the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments were given by inspiration of God, contain an all-sufficient revelation of His will to men, and are the only unerring rule of faith and practice. 2 Tim. 3:15-17.

2. That the Godhead, or Trinity, consists of the Eternal Father, a personal, spiritual Being, omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient, infinite in wisdom and love; the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Eternal Father, through whom all things were created and through whom the salvation of the redeemed hosts will be accomplished; the Holy Spirit, the third person of the Godhead, the great regenerating power in the work of redemption. Matt. 28:19.

3. That Jesus Christ is very God, being of the same nature and essence as the Eternal Father. While retaining His divine nature He took upon Himself the nature of the human family, lived on the earth as a man..." {Fundamental Principles of SDA's no. 2, p. 377}

Only when the prophet and the pioneers passed to their rest could the deceiver make his move, and "while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat," (Matt. 13:25, 28)

1981 Yearbook

"1. The Holy Scriptures

The Holy Scriptures, Old and New Testaments, are the written Word of God,

2. The Trinity

There is one God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, a unity of three co-eternal Persons. God is immortal, all-powerful, all-knowing, above all, and ever present. He is infinite and beyond human comprehension, yet known through His self-revelation. He is forever worthy of worship, adoration, and service by the whole creation. (Deut. 6:4; Matt. 28:19; 2 Cor. 13:14; Eph. 4:46; 1 Peter 1:2; 1 Tim. 17; Rev. 14:7.)

3. The Father

God the Eternal Father...

4. The Son

God the eternal Son...

5. The Holy Spirit

God the eternal Spirit..." (Fundamental Principles of SDA's no. 3, p. 5}

(Anyone who can count will admit that God, God, God = 3 Gods. Is this what you worship?)

Who has done this change? "He said unto them, an enemy hath done this." It was not a passing error held by our pioneers to be cleared up by progressive revelation (as some claim when seeing a few of these statements, and refuse to see any more). It was a deeply-rooted pillar of their entire theology, including a full understanding of the Sabbath, the atonement, and the Sanctuary. There was harmony among all the brethren, including Mrs. White.

Today some may think that disregarding these foundational doctrines is the result of the Church advancing in present truth. But can this be? Can one advance in truth if he does not have truth? Was the advancement of truth to change the foundational doctrines of the Church? "Truth is truth, and will remain truth, and in the end will triumph gloriously." (E. G. White, Review & Herald, December 28, 1897}

One daunting question still remains, either God built his early church upon the most serious heresy, or the church has gone into the most serious heresy since the death of its prophet and pioneers. This should be disturbing to every true SDA believer. Was Ellen White in error when she supported these pioneers? Or has Satan been busy undermining the basic foundations of the church?

Is this meant to be an attack on the church or its leaders? Absolutely not. It is only a wake up call. "THE ENEMY IS UPON US" It is time for God's people to stop feeding on anything but God's Word. Study this out in full, prayerfully, and then ask for God's guidance on how to oppose the power of Rome that even now assaults the church.

Yes, this is an attack by Roman Catholicism. In the little book called Handbook For Today's Catholic written by the Roman Catholic church. It reads on page 11, "The mystery of the Trinity is the central doctrine of the Catholic Faith. Upon it are based all the other teachings of the Church."

The end is upon us! Where are the watchmen on the walls of Zion? This doctrine undermines everything that is of God and all of the pillars of our church. What will you do? Do you have the courage to defend the honor of Christ's bride against the attack of the mother of harlots? Will you come to the help of the Lord against the mighty? If not, then who will? It will only be those who stand for truth though the heavens fall. It will be God's remnant who will stand fearlessly in defense of His Church.

May God richly bless you and give you strength as you stand for truth against the flowing tide of heresy that threatens to wash away God's final fortress in an evil ungodly world.

The Holy Spirit : What the Bible has to say?

Who does the Bible say is named Holy? Scripture says, "He sent redemption to His people: He has commanded His covenant forever: Holy and Reverend is His name." Ps. 111:9. "Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty." Rev. 4:8. Only the Father is called Almighty. "And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep through Your own name those whom You have given Me, that they may be one, as We are." John 17:11. Also we read, "...I will make My holy name known in the midst of my people Israel; and I will not let them pollute My holy name any more, and the heathen shall know that I am the Lord, the Holy One in Israel." Eze. 39:7. "But you have an unction [anointing] from the Holy One..." 1 John 2:20. Here the Father is called Holy Father, the Holy One, and Holy is the Father's name. Wouldn't the Holy Spirit then be the Holy Father's Spirit?

Doesn't the word of show the possession of whose Spirit the Bible is referring to? When the Bible mentions the 'Spirit of God', the 'Spirit of your Father', the 'Spirit of Christ', the 'Spirit of the Lord', the 'Spirit of His Son', is it not their own Spirit?

What is Christ's definition of a spirit? Jesus said to the disciples in the Upper Room, "Behold My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself: handle Me, and see; for a spirit has not flesh and bones, as you see Me have." Luke 24:39. This is Jesus speaking, so why do we say that the Holy Spirit comes from another deity person?

Where does Jesus say the Holy Spirit comes from? Jesus says it's the Spirit of the Father. Matt. 10:20, Luke 11:13, John 15:26. The Father is the source of all things including the Spirit. 1 Cor. 8:6, Rom. 11:36. Luke says, "...how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask Him?" Luke 11:13.

Does Jesus clarify who the Spirit of God is? Jesus says, "But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come to you." Matt. 12:28. Luke records the same verse. Jesus says, "But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you." Luke 11:20. The finger of God and the Spirit of God both refer to the Father.

Does not the Bible say that God is a Spirit? Yes. It says, "God is a Spirit: and they that worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth." John 4:24. But it also says the Father has a form. Scripture says we will see Him face to face, Rev. 22:4. He has nostrils, a mouth, and feet (Ps. 18:8,9), hair on His head (Dan. 7:9), hands (Rev. 5:1), also a face (Matt. 18:10), and He sits on the throne (Rev. 3:21, 5:13, 22:1,3). The Son has a body and a spirit and so does man. "For what man knows the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? Even so the things of God knows no man, but the Spirit of God." 1 Cor. 2:11. "Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God." 1 Cor. 2:11,12. The Bible says we can't imagine what the Father has prepared for us, "but God has revealed them to us by His Spirit." 1 Cor. 2:9. The spirit of man is the spirit within himself. The Scripture above says the Spirit is the Father's Spirit. I wouldn't say, "Let me introduce you to my spirit", while pointing to someone else.

What is an important difference between the spirit of man and the Spirit of God? We're told the spirit of man is in him. 1 Cor. 2:11. While the spirit of God is not limited to His bodily divine form. God is able to be everywhere. Ps. 139:7-10.

When the Bible states the Holy Spirit will tell us what to say when accused, does the Bible explain whose Spirit it is? Mark 13:11, Luke 12:11,12. Mark says, "But when they shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what you shall speak, neither do you premeditate: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak you: for it is not you that speak, but the Holy Ghost." Matthew clarifies this, "But when they deliver you up take no thought how or what you shall speak...for it is not you that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaks in you." Matt. 10:19,20. The Holy Ghost or Spirit here is the Spirit of the Father.

Do other verses support that the Spirit comes from the Father? We're told that the sword of the Spirit is the word of God. Eph. 6:17. If the Spirit is a third deity, why does it say it is the word of God (the Father)? It also says, "you are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God." 1 Cor.6:11. The God of the Jewish disciples who wrote the New Testament was Yahweh (the Father). "If we love one another, God dwells in us, and his love is perfected in us. Hereby know we that we dwell in Him, and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit." 1 John 4:12,13. Does this not say it is the Father's Spirit that is in us? The following are references referring to the Father's Spirit as My Spirit, Thy Spirit, His Spirit, Spirit of your Father, Spirit of God, and Spirit of the Lord: (My Spirit) Gen. 6:3, Isa. 42:1, 44:3, 59:21, Eze. 36:27, 37:14, 39:29, Joel 2:28,29, Haggai 2:5, Zec. 4:6, Matt. 12:18, Act. 2:17,18; (Thy Spirit) Ps. 104:30, 139:7, 143:10; (His Spirit) Num. 11:29, Job 26:13, 34:14, Isa. 34:16, Zec. 7:12, Rom. 8:11, 1 Cor. 2:10, Eph. 3:15,16, 1 John 4:12,13; (Spirit of your Father) Matt. 10:20; (the Spirit of God) Gen. 1:2, 41:38, Ex. 31:3, 35:31, Num. 24:2, I Sam. 10:10, 11:6, 19:20, 19:23, 2 Chron. 15:1, 24:20, Job. 27:3, Eze. 11:24, Matt. 3:16, 12:28, Rom. 8:9, 8:14, 15:19, 1 Cor. 2:11, 2:14, 3:16, 7:40, 12:3, Eph. 4:30, 1 John 4:2; (Spirit of the Lord) Judges 3:10, 6:34, 11:29, 13:25, 14:6, 14:19, 15:14, 1 Sam. 10:6, 16:13, 16:14, 2 Sam. 23:2, 1 Kings 18:12, 22:24, 2 Kings 2:16, 2 Chron. 18:23, 20:14, Isa. 11:2, 40:7, 40:13, 59:19, 61:1, 63:14, Eze. 11:5, 37:1, Micah 2:7, 3:8, Luke 4:18, Acts 5:9, 8:39.

Does God still dwell in a temple? The earthly temple has been destroyed centuries ago, but we now are His temple. "Know you not that you are the temple of God and the Spirit of God dwells in you?" 1 Cor. 3:16. Is this not saying God through His Spirit comes to dwell in us?

Can we receive both the Spirit of the Father and Spirit of Christ? Paul writes, "But you are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man has not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. But if the Spirit of Him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, He that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by His Spirit that dwells in you." Rom. 8:9-11. Here Paul interchanges the terms "Spirit of God," "Spirit of Christ," "Spirit of Him," and "His Spirit". Paul believed that the Holy Spirit was both the Father and the Son. Jesus said, "If a man love Me, he will keep My words: and My Father will love him, and We (I and My Father) will come unto him, and make Our abode with him." John 14:23.
