A plea for reconciliation

"I stated that the course that had been pursued at Minneapolis was cruelty to the Spirit of God" (Ms. 30, 1889; emphasis supplied).

Here was evidence, that all might discern whom the Lord recognized as His servants.... These men whom you have spoken against have been as signs in the world, as witnesses for God.... If you reject Christ's delegated messengers, you reject Christ (TM 97; 1896).

The rejection of Christ in 1888 has led to a rejection of the God our Pioneers worshipped and now those of us who want to honour our spiritual parents are thrust out of the church our Pioneers raised. is this really the right thing to do? We appeal for a better way, we pray for reconciliation to the the God who led our forefathers and the 1888 message.
