So, you think that you know SDA history. What are the circumstances of the following voted resolution, when, where and by whom:

Quote:
Resolved, That the sectarian denominations of New-England should . . . be considered and treated, by every friend of humanity, as the 'Babylon of apocalyptic vision' 'the habitation of devils, the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird."

NOTE: If you want to cheat, the answer is found at: Douglas Morgan, "Toward Oneness & Freedom: The Road from 'Babylon' to General Conference Organization," SPECTRUM, Spring 2013, Pages 16 - 26.

The resolution that I cited was made in 1843, by the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society at a meeting in Haverhill, Massachusetts.

How many thought it was a SDA Resolution?

I admit that at the first opportunity, I cheated! It is interesting,

much of what we teach about the papacy and Catholicism used to be held by Protestants who lead in the reformation, before the SDA church existed.

perhaps some of their own history has faded.

Love awakens love.

Let God be true and every man a liar.
