밑에 대총회 문서라고 퍼오신 김금해님 덕분에

새로운 놀라운 사실을 알게 되었습니다.

김주영님이 그동안 만일 지역교회에서 예언세미나등을 

하면서 천주교를 적그리스도적 입장의 견지등으로 부정적으로

묘사하면 대총회등에서 제재를 받을 수 있다고 했던것 같습니다.

실은 그러한 주장을 볼 때마다 반신반의 했었습니다. 

정말 그렇단 말이야? 그게 말이야 막걸리야? 

내가 평생 이 교회에서 들어오던 주장들인데 그걸 대총회가 

금지하고 있다니? 에이 설마!!!

첫 째로 관심이 없었습니다. 예언 세미나등에 더 이상 관심이 없기

때문이지요. 

그런데 김금해님이 퍼온신 글에 김주영님의 주장이 사실임을 

밝혀주는 문서가 떡하니 존재하고 있었던 것입니다. 

김금해님이 강조하신 파란색 부분과 바로 그 밑에 문장(김주영님의

주장의 근거가 되는 문구)을 함께 이곳에 올립니다.

해석도 함께 올리고 싶지만 김금해 님이 저보러 왜 그런식으로 읽고

해석하냐고 하실까봐 그냥 본문을 그대로 올리겠습니다.

판단은 각자가 하시면 좋겠습니다.

그리고 제목으로 김주영님을 언급해서 조금 죄송합니다. 

님의 평소 주장을 써포트 하는 글이니 이해해 주시리라 생각합니다.

How Seventh-day Adventists View Roman

Catholicism

Seventh-day Adventists regard all men and women as equal in the

sight of God. We reject bigotry against any person, regardless of race,

nationality, or religious creed. Further, we gladly acknowledge that

sincere Christians may be found in other denominations, including

Roman Catholicism, and we work in concert with all agencies and bodies

that seek to relieve human suffering and to uplift Christ before the world.

Seventh-day Adventists seek to take a positive approach to other

faiths. Our primary task is to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ in

the context of Christ’s soon return, not to point out flaws in other

denominations.

The beliefs of Seventh-day Adventists are rooted in the biblical

apostolic teachings and thus share many essential tenets of Christianity

in common with the followers of other Christian churches. However,

we have a specific identity as a movement. Our compelling message for

Christians and non-Christians alike is to communicate hope by focusing

on the quality of life that is complete in Christ.

As Adventists relate to Roman Catholicism in particular, both the

past and the future enter into our thinking. We cannot erase or ignore the

historical record of serious intolerance and even persecution on the part

of the Roman Catholic Church. The Roman Catholic system of church

governance, based on extra-biblical teachings such as papal primacy,

resulted in severe abuses of religious freedom as the church was allied

with the state.

Seventh-day Adventists are convinced of the validity of our

prophetic views, according to which humanity now lives close to the end

of time. Adventists believe, on the basis of biblical predictions, that just

prior to the second coming of Christ this earth will experience a period

of unprecedented turmoil, with the seventh-day Sabbath as a focal point.

In that context, we expect that world religions—including the major

Christian bodies as key players—will align themselves with the forces

in opposition to God and to the Sabbath. Once again the union of church

and state will result in widespread religious oppression.

To blame past violations of Christian principles on one specific

denomination is not an accurate representation of either history or the

concerns of Bible prophecy. We recognize that at times Protestants,

including Seventh-day Adventists, have manifested prejudice and even

bigotry. If, in expounding on what the Bible teaches, Seventh-day

Adventists fail to express love to those addressed, we do not exhibit

authentic Christianity.

Adventists seek to be fair in dealing with others. Thus, while we

remain aware of the historical record and continue to hold our views

regarding end-time events, we recognize some positive changes in recent

Catholicism, and stress the conviction that many Roman Catholics are

brothers and sisters in Christ.
