Does Sister White say the GC SDA can become Babylon? "If the church of God becomes lukewarm, it does not stand in favour with God any more than do the churches that are represented as having fallen and become the habitation of devils and the hold of every foul spirit and the cage of every unclean and hateful bird." Letter 35, 1898, p. 6-7 "We are in danger of becoming a sister to fallen Babylon, of allowing our churches to become corrupted, and filled with every foul spirit, and cage of every unclean and hateful bird." Letter 51, 9/6/1886 "The world must not be introduced into the church. And married to the church, forming a bond of unity Through this means the church will become indeed CORRUPT AND AS STATED IN Revelation, a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. TM 265 "In amazement they hear the testimony that Babylon is the church, fallen because of her errors and sins, because of her rejection of the truth sent to her from Heaven." -Spirit of Prophecy, vol 4, p 424 or Great Controversy, p 606-607The Word says.. Sister White said of these people that lead the GC SDA... "That these men should stand in a sacred place, to be as the voice of God to the people, as we once believed the General Conference to be--that is past".--GCB April 3, 1901, p. 25. {Last Day Events 50.4} “I saw that God has honest children among the nominal Adventists and the fallen churches, and before the plagues shall be poured out, ministers and people will be called out from these churches and will gladly receive the truth. Satan knows this and before the loud cry of the third angel is given, he raises an excitement in these religious bodies, that those who have rejected the truth may think that God is with them. He hopes to deceive the honest and lead them to think that God is still working for the churches. But the light will shine, and all who are honest will leave the fallen churches, and take their stand with the remnant” -Early Writings: page 261. "I saw the nominal church and nominal Adventists, like Judas, would betray us to the Catholics to obtain their influence to come against the truth. The saints then will be an obscure people, little known to the Catholics; but the churches and nominal Adventists who know of our faith and customs (for they hated us on account of the Sabbath, for they could not refute it) will betray the saints and report them to the Catholics as those who disregard the institutions of the people; that is, that they keep the Sabbath and disregard Sunday." E.G. White, Spalding--Magan Unpublished Testimonies, p. 1. Sister White said of these people that stay in such a church... It is impossible for any one
to become a true follower of Jesus Christ, without
distinguishing himself from the worldly mass of unbelievers.
If the world would accept of Jesus, then there would be no sword of dissension;
for all would be disciples of Christ and in fellowship one with another, and
their unity would be unbroken. But this is not the case. Here and there an individual
member of a family is true to the convictions of his conscience, and is compelled
to stand alone in his family or in the church to which he belongs, and
is finally compelled, because of the course of those with whom he associates,
to separate himself from their companionship.
The line of demarkation is made distinct. One
stands upon the word of God, the others upon the traditions and sayings of men.
