Partial list of Abominations in the Seventh Day Adventist Church

 

1.  Lack of reverence in the house of God: Isa.  56:7; Volume 5, pages 492-500. 

2.  Following the fashions of the world: Isa.  3:16; Volume 1, pages 269, 270; Volume 4, page 632; Volume 3, page 379; Volume 5, page 78; Volume 1, pages 189-191; Volume 1, pages 135, 136; Volume 4, page 631. 

3.  Spending money for that which is not bread (health reform): Isa.  55:2; Volume 5, page 197; Isa.  56:12.  (Many references can be given from the testimonies on this subject, but space will not permit them here. )

4.  Use of tithe--school teachers (those who teach the Scriptures)are not paid by the tithe as they should have been: Volume 6, page 215. 

5.  The house of God is made into a house of merchandise by buying and selling denominational publications of all sorts: Isa.  58:3; Isa.  56:7; Volume 1, pages 471, 472; Volume 8, page 250. 

6.  High prices in our institutions while they should be below current expenses: Volume 8, page 142; Isa.  56:12; Isa.  58. 

7.  Disbelief in the Spirit of Prophecy: If not acknowledged by words, it is admitted by works. 

8.  Failed to inform church members of Elijah's message: Mal.  4:5; Testimonies to Ministers, page 475; Volume 4, pages 402, 403. 

9.  Abraham obeyed God in all that He commanded, and was very careful even to the smallest particulars; thus it was counted to him for righteousness, but we have not done so.  See Gen.  26:5; Gen.  15:6. 

10.  The promise of the land (heavenly Canaan) is to Abraham's seed.  Jesus said, "If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham.  [If ye are not the children of Abraham] Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. " See John 8:39-44.  (By doing the works of Abraham), "Then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise. " Gal.  3:29

11.  Insisting that we have all the truth and have need of nothing. 

12.  Turning down Scriptural claims without investigation as to its light.  Volume 5 page 211: "The abominations for which the faithful ones were sighing and crying were all that could be discerned by finite eyes, but by far the worst sins, those which provoked the jealousy of the pure and holy God, were unrevealed. " 1 S.R. page 34-35
