quote:

Then I was pointed to some who are in the great error of believing that it is their duty to go to Old Jerusalem, and think they have a work to do there before the Lord comes. Such a view is calculated to take the mind and interest from the present work of the Lord, under the message of the third angel; for those who think that they are yet to go to Jerusalem will have their minds there, and their means will be withheld from the cause of present truth to get themselves and others there. I saw that such a mission would accomplish no real good, that it would take a long while to make a very few of the Jews believe even in the first advent of Christ, much more to believe in His second advent. I saw that Satan had greatly deceived some in this thing and that souls all around them in this land could be helped by them and led to keep the commandments of God, but they were leaving them to perish. I also saw that Old Jerusalem never would be built up; and that Satan was doing his utmost to lead the minds of the children of the Lord into these things now, in the gathering time, to keep them from throwing their whole interest into the present work of the Lord, and to cause them to neglect the necessary preparation for the day of the Lord.

Don't forget that the fake prophet stated that Miller's activity were the 1st and 2nd angels message.

To me, this constitutes a lying addition to the book of Revelation.

We just cannot get enough Revelation 22:18:
I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues which are written in this book

Is this one of the prophecies that current sda's point to with pride? doubtful. Perhaps they ascribe a different value to "built up" than most folks. Redefining words and phrases has been a favorite activity of theirs.

What anti-semitism in that EGW quote!

So much for what Paul said about "to the Jew first"! Ellen says: "to the Jew never!"!

Good point, Larry--and Jeremy, that's an interesting comparison.

I find EGW's Anti-Semitism extremely disgusting.
