Comment on Elder Ted Wilson is Our New General Conference President by Danella Sherwood.
As a life long Adventist I’m upset by the tone of the remarks on this site. They seem more appropriate to a political website than an SDA spiritual one. Should we not care more about a person’s connection to Christ than whether or not they line up with one of our cherished positions? The hate toward the so called left or right is still just hate. As far as the Michigan Conference and David Asscherick go, there are many things that have occurred in churches in this area ( I am a member in Michigan) that have not moved the work of the Lord and the church forward. I’ve heard sermons by David Asscherick that worked against unity within the church and that were more self serving than Christ centered. Ellen White was very clear that her teachings should never go above the Bible and yet,it seems by some of the remarks on this site that those posting would like a GC President that would do exactly what she warned against. I’m saddened that one conference would remove it’s support of an SDA school rather than work within the structure of God’s church to bring about positive change. We should all be sobered by this breaking apart of the church rather than gloating and hoping that our own positions will be validated by a new President. I pray that he will not cater to any group on the left or right, but rather do God’s will.
