Well, Mr President Neil "Ted" Wilson JR: And here it is...as predicted...open the door to Women's Ordination and right behind it is the push for Gay Marriage and Gay Ordination:
"Adventists Wrestle With Same-sex Marriage--Two Adventist Theological Groups Ponder Ordination" AToday headline...
from our progressives at Adventist Today/ AKA Loma Linda University and the fine academic community of LaSierra Non - Adventist University, and don't forget the Columbia Union of Non-Seventh-day Adventists.
Mr President, your failure to deal aggressively with this outright revolt has lead to an outrageous open challenge to the authority of the church and now this creeping "congregational governance"
as propagated and as yet unchallenged by your own Columbia Union:
"Union Conference Executive Committee Responds to Comments by General Conference Officers: Members of the Columbia Union Conference Executive Committee appear to favor church unity that comes when local unions are given powers of self-determination, under the overarching framework of the world church. They have so declared in a letter to General Conference officers..."
Mr Wilson, if you cannot deal with this issue, please resign so we can!!! Or as Mr Lincoln so gallantly invoked to General McClellan who was also guilty of avoiding battle (paraphrased) "Mr Wilson, can we borrow your church" so we can clean it up!!!
Mr Wilson, you so frequently invoked the Spirit of Prophesy at your own Acceptance Speech before the World General Conference and I suggest you take seriously Mrs White's Counsel to when a prior medical institution went awry over a century ago:
MEET THIS ICEBERG HEAD-ON or step aside!!!
Simply put, Mr President, YOU CANNOT HAVE REVIVAL AND REFORMATION WHEN YOUR CHURCH IS IN APOSTASY!!!
Indignantly Yours,
Gailon Arthur Joy
