I wanted to take this opportunity to share something with you that I think someday you will have been glad to have been included in this mailing. This may be in the longer message category and most of you may feel like deleting this message and I would not blame you if you did, BUT this message is unlike one that you will ever receive and I do believe that what I have to share with you will soon be critically important in a magnitude unseen yet by this world. I seriously doubt that you will receive another message like this one. And No, I am not hyping things up to get your attention! This message is STRAIGHT and I am NOT drunk, before jumping to any conclusions, check out the links AND wait just a little while to see if any of the predictions come to pass or not. THIS IS THE TIME YOU ALL HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR! What remains to be seen is if YOU were really ready! If you thought that this could NOT happen in YOUR lifetime...SURPRISE!!

Some of you receiving this message may well wonder why I am writing to you since in some ways we have parted, hopefully in a Christian fashion. All I can say at this time is that this would be a good time to put old feelings aside and to strive towards a higher mark. If there are any grudges or hurt feelings out there...please, accept my apologies for my part in this and let’s put them aside and look towards our standard Bearer, Jesus Christ and try to emulate Him in everything we do.

I wish to share with you the experiences and the document that a young Nigerian friend has shared with me. Most of you will understand fairly quick why I am including you in this message. So that you know as well my motives, at some point in the past or recent past, we have shared correspondence relating to the Godhead, or trinity issue and the fallacy for a Friday crucifixion day. I don’t wish to hold back anything, so I am telling you up-front that what I am about to share with you could affect my credibility, for what’s worth as well as affect your personal end-time awareness. While this letter may well be classified in the "Shock and Awe" category, I can only pray that you will read it and ponder it seriously.

Since most if not all are ardent believers that Ellen White (EGW from here on) was a "prophet of God", I also hope to share some points that need to be seriously considered by all who believe this way.

I am attaching or providing a link to an article that was written to me over a year ago now. He is a young Nigerian man who contacted my website. His reasoning and intent will be readily seen in the e-mails that He has sent me (Click on Background on the article’s Menu). I have deleted all personal comments to keep things relevant and short. Brother Joseph, as I have come to know him, shared a startling revelation to me that is set to take place in a little less than a year. It is something that has never taken place in American history but which we all recognize will come all too soon and it is set to take place in just under one year. I am sorry that I will not tell you what this is, because to do so would mean that you do not need to read this man’s message AND it was his message that convinced me that I should help him to share this with as many as will listen. And yes, my two favorite subjects are well covered in this document. It clearly substantiates what my website has been proclaiming for at least three years or more. I hope you will believe me that I had never ever discussed these issues with him before receiving his first e-mail. His comments could only have been generated by what he found on the site, previously and from his writing style, and grammar leads me to believe this...as I have read his e-mails many times! I can only suspect that supernatural forces were involved as he claims. Again, a year from now will sustain this as Truth or error.
http://www.a4t.org/Sermons/Misc/dauda-second_angels_message.html

Within a year my credibility as well as Joseph’s will be tested and will be hanging on a thin thread. Even a quick look at this recent newspaper article from the San Francisco Chronicle will reveal, unknowingly to them, the enormity of what is about to occur in America. http://www.a4t.org/News/rule_by_fear_or_rule_by_law.html

Do the issues covered on my website have any relevance to our Christian walk or not? Do these issue really matter, do we put as much trust in the books from EGW or do we put our Trust and Faith in the Word of God? And No, I do not hold them to be at par with each other. Whatever happens within this coming year will certainly make this plain to see.

This would be a good time to establish my personal beliefs. I can guarantee that most of you will be offended by what I will write. It will be respectful, but it will not be admiring in any way...but I can only ask you to stick through to the end. What I have to show will astonish you all and you are all better qualified to determine the level of personal attention that it will require. Please note that you have been given plenty of warning before this event takes place in about a year. The essence as I see it and I always wanted to be corrected when found to be wrong, will ultimately determine if EGW was or was not a "prophet of God" as most of you would classify her. Simply stated, if Brother Joseph’s prediction comes to pass, then what he has written needs to also be deemed as Truth. If what he has written is deemed as Truth, then it is obvious that what EGW has written, especially in The Desire of Ages is mostly fabricated. I want to be careful in how I word this because I do not wish to say that the entire book is false. To be honest, I have only found it to be false from Chapter 63 onward. While there is much truth in this book, the fabricated areas far outweighs whatever truth it may have contained. In fact, she is very correct in how she describes Christ’s entry into Bethany in Chapter 62, but from here on she is critically lost in all the wrong places of Christ’s ultimate sacrifice.

Most of you should have already received a prior e-mail giving many points why a Friday Crucifixion is not possible. If I have missed anyone, which is possible because of the scope of this message, please let me know and I will try my best to show you why this belief is being challenged and why is it so important. I would go as far as saying that the books written by EGW can be better considered as the ‘golden calf’ of the current SDA Corporate Church. This denomination is currently in as much apostasy as the Israelites were on that fateful day in the wilderness!

I will no longer use the words SOP to signify any of EGW’s writings. The reason is quite simple and basic——they are NOT inspired! The Adventist people from the top on down have been greatly deceived and they refuse to even look at the issues in question! Perhaps I should have written these sentences after presenting some of the findings, but because I believe in being OPEN and UP FRONT, I will show you a crucial Bible verse that the SDA Church has buried under the proverbial rug. Deuteronomy 18:22 says:

Do any of you have even a clue as to the number of predictions that EGW made correctly? I am quite serious! This is the Bible speaking to us who prefer to be blinded by the pulpits and writings that bear the safety seal from the Conference. Most of her mistakes go way back to her early years as a so-called messenger of prophet. The Bible tells us that it only takes ONE false prediction to classify a FALSE prophet!. While I've done my research, I cannot beat the research and material written on this site:

It doesn't say, if you make a prediction and it comes true, but rather if ONE prediction FAILS to come TRUE. Personally, I was literally blown away and wondered how I could have been so deceived...then Christ's own words in Matthew 24:24 came to my mind.

Perhaps you have a different threshold of beliefs, but to me, being Inspired means they came from God’s lips to EGW’s ears by whatever source of inspiration you wish to believe in. It has the same value as a biblical prophecy, especially where tangible specifics can be spelled out. In the end, you will determine for yourselves if this man’s words are Truth from above or error from the very depths.

This would be a good time to explain that I do believe that EGW may have received some inspired thoughtsm, during her life, BUT this is highly unlikely according to Deut. 18:22 and her early history; this to me does NOT qualify her as a prophet or to have all her writings considered to be the Spirit of Prophecy. In much the same way, neither Brother Joseph nor myself believe that Brother Joseph is a prophet. The fact that EGW considered herself to be a Messenger of the Lord does NOT mean that she was consistently a messenger or regarded as one by heaven. In fact, she considered herself to be MORE than a prophet! This Truth comes through very vividly when comparing the Desire of Ages with Scripture, God’s Word. We have to get past that ‘feeling’ that her words were inspired. Am I on the verge of committing heresy or blasphemy? Please tighten your seatbelts a little longer!

What started me thinking in this manner began of course with my studies of the Passion Week of Christ as described in the Bible as compared with those given in EGW’s Desire of Ages. They simply do not agree on many points. And unfortunately most of you if not all of you have taken the position that EGW, being a ‘prophet from God’, could be trusted more than the Scriptures...I hope I am not putting my words in any of your mouths, please tell me so, if I am.

As an example, Catherine and I were recently discussing the qualifications for candidates of sainthood within the Catholic Church. She told me that before a candidate is chosen, every single word that they have ever written is scrutinized carefully. If even one thing can be found that goes against the Church’s established doctrines, they are rejected for sainthood. She also said that many scholars go through the writings to ensure conformity. Yet, within the Adventist community, while these same standards are used when debating the status of other denomination’s prophets or Saints, the same standard is NOT used when considering their own prophet or founder of the faith!

I am going to quote from a friend that recently sent me his thoughts on EGW.

When I checked into what Malachi 4:1 said, this is what I discovered:

Yet, in the Great Controversy, pg. 673.1, she writes:

Friends, this statement can be found in many of her writings, I am certain that of us could quote these words, as often as they have been drilled into us. Please note, that when she adds a Scriptural reference, that she is definitely expounding on that specific text...she specifically added the tenure of "torture" to these passages, do we today accept the teachings of hell fire and purgatory? I would have to say, YES...according to EGW! (the Bible says to NOT add or take away from God’s word); but as Adventists, we do not give it another thought! I do not reject these Truths, but I am certain that I can say that believing that EGW was a prophet or an Inspired person, was a part of an established foundation in this faith from it’s inception; it can be better called an indoctrination! While I have long known that the SDA Church was an apostate church, it was only in the past few years that I have recognized that the so-called Independent churches fair no better.

Further evidence of the inconsistencies found in EGW’s writings is in regards to her so-called visions; other than her husband, James White, only M. G. Kellogg, the eldest brother of J. H. Kellogg, who was also a physician, was present at most of her trances. He told EGW to her face that what she was experiencing was nothing more than episodes of catalepsy due to her childhood injury.

We have all read of what she told E. J. Waggoner, when he supposedly left his wife for Edith Adams; the Truth is that the original Mrs. Waggoner, was playing the field, and while in California met a Count and fell in love with him. She was the one that divorced E. J. Waggoner! Later this Count left her to her own devices and she moved back to Battle Creek to try and get E. J. Waggoner back. She made a lot of noise about E. J. Waggoner while there and you can read it all in the Battle Creek papers of that day. E. J. Waggoner took the reproof from EGW like the Christian that he was, mainly to protect the reputation of his two daughters. Only E. J. Waggoner and his daughters knew of the travesties of his ex-wife and mother. There was no way in those days for this news to have made it to EGW’s ears other than that she read about it in the Battle Creek papers. Was she inspired when she denounced E. J. Waggoner’s actions? I’ll let you figure that out. The late husband of one of the daughters, who had been a missionary for their entire lives, cleared this ugly scene in a letter he wrote to the EGW Estate shortly before his death.

The God I know has never tortured a soul. Christ took extreme pain to make this clear in John 16 & 17. This goes way back to the time that rebellion was found in Lucifer’s heart; when he convinced millions of God’s holy angels that God was not just, that He could not be trusted. That God’s kingdom was selfish and self serving that they would be better off under his rulership. ... The beliefs in a burning hell or purgatory came from Satan and EGW is now seen carrying his banner. During the history of this earth, God has indeed destroyed many wicked individuals, but two distinct cases come to mind, the flood and the rain of brimstone upon the plains of Sodom and Gomorrah; in neither case is there any record of the doomed suffering or being tortured in the manner the EGW describes. If we know God as our Friend, which He is and desires more than anything else in this world to be to us, then we should know Him in the same way that we have come to know and accept His Son to be our best Friend, and even when He turns His face away from those that rejected Him, He does so with pity, wishing they had taken up His offer to them...now an offer that is no longer ever available...For He is a Just God.

While touching on the book of Malachi, it would be negligent of me to not mention how this book’s contents have been used over and over and yes, over again by the SDA Church in it’s campaign to enrich itself on the backs of the poor and suffering of this world. Careful reading of the major portions of Malachi, will reveal a message from God to the thieving priests of the Church of it’s day in their evil practices of sacrificing unfit animals to the Lord and keeping the choicest animals for themselves...

In fact, the Levitical law had some clear and definite instructions on how tithing was to be used. It was meant to be used for widows and orphans as well as the Levites who had no inheritance and not for the ‘poor’ church! If they were NOT able to present it before the Lord, they were FREE to use it for whatever their heart desired! For some reason that only EGW and the Church’s leaders can answer; the tithing practice in, Malachi’s day, was a CEREMONIAL LAW, which ceased with the death of Jesus Christ on His infamous cross. It went out with circumcision, animal sacrifices and a host of other rituals mandated by the First Covenant. (Please see Deut. 14:22-29) I will only dwell on one more thing that is of the highest order of hypocrisy: EGW was known specially for giving us the Health Message. Yet I am almost certain that none of you knew that she had a keen taste for oysters, of all meats! My nose automatically turns up at the thought!

Friends, this request, from Ellen White, is dated 1882! Almost 20 years AFTER the Health Message was given! I don’t know what this says to you, but to me, it only confirms that she was NOT the inspired person that she is made out to be by her adoring followers. If you read the rest of the quote you will see the excuses that are given by Douglas from the powers that be at the Estate. A cover up, if there ever was one!

In this article the writer discusses about every possible reason that you can provide for your continued practice of tithing! Friends, it’s not I going off the deep end into biblical heresy. I am concerned with only one thing as we approach this time...that everything we do be according to God’s explicit instruction in HIS Word to us...not through a spokesperson for God...

The issue of the trinity within the SDA Church is simply one of stubbornness and refusal in giving up a doctrine that most have grown accustomed to. Do NOT be convinced that the SDA Church’s version of the trinity is different than that of Rome’s! It is NOT! There is a very simple explanation for the Church’s belief in this false doctrine and the best documentation that I have found so far comes from an article that I recently received that is called The Trinity Chronicles, it convincingly shows the steady progression over the tears that followed EGW’s death. While I do believe that her Godhead beliefs were accurate and biblical, she has in her writings also convinced readers of her trinitarian beliefs along with some sly editing from her Estate. http://a4t.org/Library/volz-the_trinity_chronicles.html

The belief of Three Gods in One or One God in Three is nothing but pure sacrilege. A high offense in the eyes of God. Those are not my words, read 1 John 5:16! (Consider the subject of the preceding verses)

I wish to briefly cover my favorite and probably the most controversial area, the Truth about the day of Christ’s death and resurrection. Obviously it must be more important than what we or even I have considered, because it was an area that was specifically pointed out to Brother Joseph in his ‘illuminations’.

I will borrow a few paragraphs from a letter that I recently sent to a ministry. Pleas forgive me if you find yourself reading this again, but since you did not accept it the first time, I have no qualms about repeating it once again:

I wish to repeat what I said earlier, at no time before this document was written and sent to me was I in any contact with the writer, Joseph Dauda. In fact at no time had I ever discouraged him from believing is EGW. My current views are quite recent by comparison to his message which was dated October 2006.

I was profoundly humbled when I found out that he was directed to my website by the apparent heavenly messenger. "Surly not my site, Lord!" I thought. With all the problems that this site has experienced and the format that I use to allow people with a low vision problem to read the materials along with the color schemes that have come out and the difficulty that some may have in reading them... "surely not my site, Lord!" Besides all this, those that know me best, may be witnesses to how unlikely it is for me to be even considered by our Lord and Savior! So I am truly humbled and I wish for those of you that are having trouble comprehending this or it’s importance to reflect on the circumstances that brought this all about. The unlikeliness of Brother Joseph even writing this message and the validity of Joel 2:28,29!! I for one do not dare to suggest that this could not happen in my day or even that it would involve me in any way. You are welcomed to make your own conclusions, but my job is to let it be known to those that will listen, regardless of my qualifications.

I seriously considered writing much more evidence that EGW was not an inspired person, I also realized that most will be shocked by what I have written, but as I have stated before, I have yet to receive any proof that what I stated is false or more precisely, that what the Scriptures have stated is false and that what EGW has written is truth; I must continue until this is done. People can believe it or not believe it from their careful studies. It will all be evident to everyone soon enough! Can I say it any better than what Christ said in Matthew 24:24? There are ONLY two options here; either you are very deceived and need to repent and be converted...or you are simply NOT among the ‘very elect’!

SUMMARY

The charges brought forth in this e-mail may be quite serious to you and I do not look upon this lightly. It is not like me to take on an issue that is easily proved to be incorrect. It’s bad for my public image ... but then so is taking on the so-called prophet of the Church!

If you would please, please carefully look at the issues at stake and if you can determine with Biblical accuracy that your positions on the Godhead and the Passion Week are correct, then I will make a formal apology to all. This is a bigger issue than many of you may realize and I gladly take on the challenge! To date, no one has been able to answer any of these questions from Scriptures:

1. If Christ was privately and publicly chosen, on which day of the week was this? Does it span only 4 days from His selection until His death as shown in Exodus 12:3,6?

2. If Christ was already in the tomb when the Pharisees went to see Pilate to ask for armed guards to watch His tomb AND if this day followed the Preparation Day, then on which day did these Pharisees go to see Pilate AND yet not be in violation of the Sabbath? Matthew 27:62,63

3. Where in the Bible does it say that Christ arose from death on Sunday or the first day of the week?

4. Which SABBATH was Mark 16:1 referring to in this verse, the Annual Passover Sabbath or the weekly Sabbath? or were they the same day?

5. If you answered the above correctly, then why does Luke 23:56 say specifically that they went to keep the Sabbath ACCORDING to the COMMANDMENT?

The reason that I am asking these questions and making all this commotion is because I do NOT fine that the Desire of Ages agrees with the Bible...AND if I am to follow God than I must follow God’s Word rather than (wo)man’s.

As a side note, it would also appear that the Scriptures do not condemn the observance of all the Festivals, especially Passover, which was to be kept for perpetuity. .. You may wish to argue this point, but I am simply saying what I have found in Scripture. Does Perpetuity have an ending point?

In the same way, you may believe that there are Three Gods in One, but if you seriously study this out you will soon discover that this has been one of Satan’s biggest hat tricks. He has imperceptibly slipped on a Romish hat upon your head. It IS true that the SDA Church believes this way after all it is plainly stated in their Fundamental Beliefs... but is it so? Or have you been deceived again? How many strikes are you allowed before you are OUT?

A genuine Truth Seeker will search out the Truths presented here. But alas, most will believe that EGW did that for them and they will unfortunately be found on the wrong side of the issue during crunch time!

If you would rather hear what I have shared here from an established SDA writer, minus the prediction coming in less than one year, yet providing enough current information to also raise your hair, go here, I promise you that you will not be disappointed: http://www.a4t.org/Sermons/Misc/mayer-sunday_law_by_stealth.html

This written sermon was given by Hal Mayer, who replaced Lawrence Nelson of the Keep the Faith Ministry.

Just to take your pulse on the times in which we are currently living, this prediction is made, again none of these are of my own interpretation... Pope Benedict XVI will be the last elected pope. The one that follows him will be the antichrist. And Benedict will most likely be dethroned. The study on this phenomenon can be found at http://www.666beast.net/

Another reason to be apprehensive if you belong to the Corporate SDA Church is that very soon, your membership coupled with your tithe receipts will tie you directly the 501(c)3 provisions into a situation that will bind you in such a way that you will find it difficult to escape from, once Sunday legislation is signed. This IS the time to completely disassociate yourself from membership in your beloved SDA Church. I can only urge you to read the documents linked to this message if you are doubtful...you will be fully ensnared in a system that has no escape. Seven times Christ declares in the book of Revelation. Chapters 2 & 3: "He that hath an ear, let him hear" It will be an eternal mistake to not take this seriously, especially at this time in the world’s history.

I also realize more than you may think that most of you will believe that I have lost my marbles especially in speaking in such a manner about your Sister White. I had t take the chance that perhaps ONE individual would consider the seriousness of this message and decide to study some of these issues out for themselves. Some of you have only one issue to contend with, but reality says that most of you have looked at BOTH of these issues and have dismissed them at one time or another, saying that they are not of a salvational nature. But if BOTH of these issues were vividly shown to Brother Joe, then something is wrong with that premise, especially if you believe that the Sabbath issue will ne the ONLY issue that you have to know about. Question: How does a believer explain the TRUE issues about the Sabbath if they still believe that Christ was resurrected on a Sunday? If you believe this, then you have been fully deceived and I can only wonder about your soul’s true resting place.

To get a sneak preview of Brother Dauda’s message, I’ve just received and uploaded a shorter but very provocative message from him that really cuts to the chase, He is fully aware of where we are in history and the nearness of it’s end. http://www.a4t.org/Sermons/Misc/dauda-in_defense_of_message.html

... Remember he works in a printer’s shop, he is a Nigerian and I do hope that you will not feel like challenging his message or that it is not divinely sent.

God is greatly grieved at His people who have decidedly out His very Words in second place, who now take their orders from a supposed woman prophet. They are blinded by the fact that Satan has been able to deceive them even through their so-called Spirit of Prophecy, which in their view could never be touched by the adversary. They fully accept God’s Word being compromised by the many versions available today, but neglect to see that in this world Satan has few if any restrictions on deceiving his enemies. We have made ourselves ripe for his deceptions by our beliefs that the Spirit of Prophecy IS the writings of Ellen White and have purposely disregarded that the Bible does not teach this, yet we go on and one preaching from the so-called SOP instead of God’s Word. We get so worked up about finding all the "I saw" or I was shown" quotes that we have literally made Ellen White a god in our eyes. The God I know, has a definite problem with this thinking and I doubt if He is all too pleased!

You will notice in Brother Joe’s article that he has mentioned that there will be a political stalemate in this country, from my limited view point we are indeed in that right now and it will probably not be solved until this summer or perhaps later. He saw this BEFORE these individuals even considered running for President of the USA! Another tip for those that will have their eyes opened by this message...it will be George W. Bush, that signs in the SUNDAY LAW! If that doesn’t wake some of you up then I don’t think you are really ready for the four winds to be unleashed! I expect the unification of this continent by a common currency similar to the Euro. The elections of this year will leave us with no better a leader than what we currently have......

Everyone today in the SDA Church are so certain of their salvation that they cannot fathom how truly LOST they are! And yes, I am thinking of myself as I write this! Five or more years ago, you could not have convinced me that I would ever do this, even if it took a thousand years to convince me of writing such a message to anyone let alone as many as are receiving this!

Blessings to all,

Bob De La Torre
