At the conclusion of the ecumenical celebration in Lund, Sweden, Pope Francis and the general-secretary of the Lutheran World Federation (LWF) agreed to work together for a shared Eucharist. They pledged during a joint statement to remove the obstacles to full unity between their Churches, leading eventually to a shared Eucharist.
After they finished signing, the congregation stood for a long round of applause as the two leaders hugged each other. Luther would be horrified!
“We long for this wound in the Body of Christ to be healed,” they said. “This is the goal of our ecumenical endeavors, which we wish to advance, also by renewing our commitment to theological dialogue.”
“Lutherans and Catholics have wounded the visible unity of the Church,” they said in their joint statement. “Theological differences were accompanied by prejudice and conflicts, and religion was instrumentalized for political ends,” they continued. “Today, we hear God’s command to set aside all conflict. We recognize that we are freed by grace to move towards the communion to which God continually calls us.”
The goal of ecumenism is to bring the churches together in full visible and sacramental union in the Roman Catholic Mass.
“And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him…” Revelation 13:8.

Tuesday November 8th, 2016 at 02:02 PMWorse than the world wondering after the Beast… is the SDA church coming into Unity with them by joining in their Wine… they now keep the Eucharist:
“In preparation for the celebration of the Eucharist Seventh-day Adventists practice the washing of feet…” Churches Respond to BEM(Baptism, Eucharist, and Ministry), vol 2 (2BEM), p 341-343, 1985. (This is the SDA churchs’ official response to the ecumenical meeting they were a part of at the Faith and Order Conference of the World Council of Churches (WCC) of January, 1982 in Lima, Peru).
The Eucharist is also called by the SDA church as being the “central celebration of the Christian church” (2BEM 341). The church also states; “On occasion Seventh-day Adventists refer to the Eucharist as a sacrament” (2BEM 342). They also state that SDA’s are “conscious of the sacredness of the celebration of the Eucharist” (2BEM 342). (Baptism, Eucharist, and Ministry, vol 2, p 342).
Then appears this amazing declaration:
“And we could go on if space permitted–to mention the WCC’s… accentuation of the Holy Spirit and the Eucharist. All of these emphases fit into the ambit of the three angels’ messages.” AR May 2, 1991, p 10.
Adventistism has drunk their wine. Come out of her my people.
” I was pointed to those who claim to be Adventists, but who reject Present Truth, and saw that they were crumbling and that the hand of the Lord was in their midst to divide and scatter them no in the gathering time, so that the precious jewels among them, who have formerly BEEN DECEIVED, may have their eyes opened to their true state. And now when the truth is presented to hem by the Lord’s messengers, they are prepared to listen, and see its beauty and harmony, and TO LEAVE THEIR FORMER ASSOCIATES AND ERRORS, embrace the precious truth and stand where they can define their position.” EW p69
THe true followers position is on The Law and the Testimony and the true system of Divine Worship. Their is an exceeding brightness shining on the Tabernacle today!!

Tuesday November 8th, 2016 at 03:45 PMÅp 16:13 Da så jeg at det fra drakens gap og fra dyrets gap og fra den falske profetens munn kom ut tre urene ånder, som lignet frosker. 14 Dette er demoniske ånder som gjør under og tegn, og de går ut til kongene i hele verden for å samle dem til krigen på Guds, Den Allmektiges store dag.

In her reading she often emphasized that at the very end of all.churches will unite and put aside the doctrines.I praise and thank God for this privillage.i live and saw that happening before my eyes.im so looking forward to that day they realize what they did.
