“All my life I have had full confidence in the Spirit of Prophecy, even though there were a number of statements of Sister White that I found difficult to understand. After reading The Greatest of All the Prophets, they became clear. What a blessing this book has been to me!” one layman said. A number of ministers and evangelists in the South Pacific Division have endorsed this book as the most important book ever written in support of the inspiration of Ellen G. White’s writings.
In my lifetime, there has never been such an all-out assault against the Spirit of Prophecy as has been waged in Australia from the beginning of 2004, and it is continuing. Because this attack is spreading into North America, I urge all of you to read the book that my brother and I wrote, The Greatest of All the Prophets.
A group of faithful Seventh-day Adventists in Australia is raising funds to scatter this book among pastors and leading laity. In a very short time, they have raised over ten thousand dollars. It is my desire to do likewise here in North America. We cannot stand back and allow Satan free reign in his desperate effort to destroy the only message that God has given to be taken to the whole world.
In March, I had the privilege of teaching “Principles of Self-supporting Work” at Highwood College in Australia. It started with six students in January of this year, but the enrollment increased by eight students. They came from Australia, the Pacific island nation of Vanuatu, and New Zealand.
With the power of the Holy Spirit and under the grace of God, I believe this little core of students, and those who will come, will turn back the tide of apostasy in the South Pacific Division. I earnestly solicit your prayers for them. Like the sons of the prophets, God is choosing young people who are “pious, intelligent, and studious. These were called the sons of the prophets. As they studied the word and the works of God, His life-giving power quickened the energies of mind and soul, and the students received wisdom from above.” Education, p. 46.
This college is certainly a landmark in the history of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Australia. It coincides with the almost unrelenting attack upon the Spirit of Prophecy, especially by the South Pacific Division.
Those who have studied the truths, comparing the inspired writings with Scripture and with the contemporary fulfillment of prophecy, will be faithful until the end.
God bless you all. Let us pray that none of us will be deceived in these final pages of earth’s history.
