This is another unfortunate act on the part of the Upper Columbia Conference (UCC).The AdventistToday take on the issue was also unfortunate. For another viewpoint on this, here is a link and some comments from the Fulcrum7 site: 

“You’re Being POLITICAL”

This is a strange credulity.  When someone stands up for the world church that they belong to, they are often accused by supporters of non-compliance of “being political.”  Nonsense.  Was Elijah being political when atop the Mount, he said “How long will you falter between two opinions?  If the LORD is  God, follow Him; but if Baal, follow him.  But the people answered him not a word” (1 Kings 18:21).  It’s time to answer the call, dear ones.

WCAS Mission Statement

World Church Affirmation Sabbath (WCAS) exists
to affirm the leadership of the General Conference and
the beliefs of the Seventh-day Adventist Church around the world.

We affirm these beliefs in accordance with
the teachings of the Holy Bible and
the writings of Ellen G. White.

We share this mission with like-minded Adventists
who choose to stand for these beliefs and
share the Three Angels' Messages with the world;
that the world may become
of Christ convicted, to Christ committed, for Christ compelled.

The General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists has acknowledged and publicized WCAS in its June 2017 Executive Committee Newsletter (see page 4).  Numerous church members and leaders at all levels have personally affirmed and encouraged the mission of WCAS.  We covet that same understanding, appreciation and cooperative harmony with all local conferences where WCAS is active, including UCC.

One thing I have always believed is that in the end times, the persecution of the followers of Jesus would be most severe from fellow church members. So it seems, let the persecutions begin. How long until the conference trust departments start locking the doors and barring the members who gave their blood, sweat, and tears to create their churches?
