wonder it will be the outward symbol of the final divide between those who
worship the Lord and those who worship the beast (Rev. 14:11, 12).” ---Sabbath
is the beast issue. That is what Finley say. It has to be, he says. ---Why
did Ellen White select her material for Great Controversy in such a way as she
did? ---She
was writing historical theology. Historical theology goes through the Bible and
from the Rebellion in Heaven describes the whole conflict of the ages through
all centuries until beyond us when eternity is recreated. That is Ellen White. ---But
recently a pastor who is now a retired Union President of France/Belgium, with
the name of Jimmy, refuses to distribute Great Controversy of Ellen White because
he feels she is too anti-Catholic. ---He
suffers, in my opinion from the “Eirene-syndrome”. Eirene means “peace” and
Jesus said that a signal of the End Time is when people are going to say “peace,
peace”. ---Just
after the Reformers died, and they died because they stopped to reform, and
rejected later in their lives the truth of adult baptism, and more. Just after
they died, some developed the Eirene-syndrome. ---Eirene-syndrome
is the thinking that we should not be so bad to the Catholics to call them the
Antichrist but make friends with them and soften our messages. We should not
call them vicarius filii dei = 600+60+6! ---So
just after the Reformers Luther, Calvin and Zwingli died, the Lutherans went
back to Catholicism in 1548 with a meeting with the Catholics and adopted
Catholic doctrines again. For the sake of peace = Eirene. ---Eirene-syndrome
is an ingredient of ecumenism, for those who do not know. ---By
the time the Calvinist Lawyer of Holland, Hugo Grotius became famous in
Amsterdam in 1630-1650, he wanted all Calvinists to adopt an Eirene-syndrome
approach to the Catholics. ---No
more Antichrist calling. He said. ---Old
Calvinists called him a “papist”. ---In
England at Oxford professor Henry Hammond liked the Eirene-syndrome very much
and sympathized with Hugo Grotius and defended him. Also in 1652. ---How?
He took out the historicism and applications to the papacy in the Book of
Revelation and interpreted everything preteristically, the time of the writing
of the book or in the Old Testament! Are Adventists listening? Hello. ---Embracing
the papacy with an Eirene-syndrome means to suppress the use of vicarius filii
dei = 600+60+6 doctrine. Wow. What about Bacchiochi, Stefanovich, Paulien and
Rodriquez? Not now. ---So
retired union president Jimmy, the Frenchman, now advocates that Ellen White
made mistakes to just see black and white, Catholics wrong and Protestants
right. ---In
his opinion it was a case of both. ---Well,
Jimmy is citing Ellen White wrongly because if you read further she do say that
the Protestants made mistakes to retain or return to Catholic doctrines. ---And
she said that at the End Time there will be a call for the Eirene-syndrome and
ecumenism! Hello Jimmy and his friends. ---Is
your pastor or university or institution suffering from the Eirene-syndrome? It
is time to take note of the seriousness of that and get away. Call an Adventist
pastor immediately or an elder and announce that this Sabbath you are coming
home to the issue that divides the beast from the non-beast, the Sabbath
keeping church. Right?
