And it is no  wonder that right now his thoughts on the matter of  race in the SDA Church are in high demand.<\/p>\n<p>It appears that he is very well read in early Adventist  history, as may be imagined.  And while he doesn&#8217;t  appear to be quite as far removed from true SDA  belief like George Knight is, he seems to have some  similar biases, as he has reviewed a book titled  &#8220;Adventist Maverick: Celebrating the work of George  R. Knight&#8221; in which he writes: &#8220;Eve sinned before  eating the forbidden fruit&#8221; and says of this book  about Knight that one: &#8220;can now drink in the wisdom  of Adventism&#8217;s most influential author within the last  35 years&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>After George Knight had disparaged Bible writers by  calling them &#8220;goat herders&#8221; at a meeting of his I  attended at Southern Adventist University in 2010, I  told him directly that all the words in the Bible were  from God.  He laughed at me.  With &#8220;wisdom&#8221; like  that, you can get a pretty good idea whose side Kevin  Burton is on.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, regarding his most recent article in the  Adventist Review.  He makes quite a bold statement  in the first paragraph: &#8220;The second advent movement  was inseparable from the abolitionist call for the  immediate and total destruction of slavery and the  demand for equal rights for the oppressed.&#8221;  Well, it&#8217;s  odd that no one had that idea until over 160 years  after it happened!  It is true that many of the early  pioneers were abolitionists, but they were first and  foremost Seventh-day Adventists who grew out of  the Millerite Movement of 1844.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;they made protest against racial injustice  inseparable from their Adventist faith.&#8221;  No they  didn&#8217;t.  This is revisionist history.  Mr. Burton seems  to have forgotten that not all Adventists were  Americans, and that this is not true even of all  American Adventists.  Some, like Joseph Bates, did  so.  Many did not.  Some Adventists were even Southern sympathizers.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Adventists were inspired by their Christian faith to  fight against systemic racism in America.&#8221;  Now this  term &#8220;systemic racism&#8221; was not even used back in  the 19th century.  It has a very specific construct in  2020, as it means police brutality against blacks.   Never, ever did &#8220;racism&#8221; mean that among the  Adventists of 160 years ago.  Some black Adventists  were NOT involved in &#8220;black protest&#8221;.  Painting broad  brushstrokes is, in fact, being racist himself.<\/p>\n<p>He speaks favorably of the Bates&#8217; family working  against the law prohibiting interracial marriage in  Massachusetts, but fails to mention the times that  Ellen White, inspired, wrote that &#8220;there should be no  intermarriage between the white and the colored  race.&#8221; &#8211;Manuscript 7, 1896.<\/p>\n<p>Then Mr. Burton gets in earnest about trying to twist  the facts to support his political views: &#8220;in the 1850s  and 1860s, Sabbath-keeping Adventists petitioned  against more issues, like the death penalty (believing  that both slavery and capital punishment  \u201crepresented systems of brutality that coerced  individuals\u201d&#8221;.  Well, it&#8217;s very possible that a few did  write against the death penalty, but, as in the  example above of interracial marriages, that certainly  was not God&#8217;s position!  God mandated the death  penalty, and to attempt to make us SDA believe in  2020 that our spiritual Adventist forefathers were  against what God instituted, is reprehensible.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The second angel warned that Babylon was fallen,  and Millerites came out of the Protestant churches  (Babylon) because those churches supported slavery.  Ellen White specified that any Seventh-day Adventist  holding pro-slavery sympathies must be immediately  disfellowshipped.&#8221;  Now he is just making up history  as he goes along.  This is completely in error.  I&#8217;ve  read plenty of Ellen White material, and unless he has  access to some secret vault articles that the public  has no access to, he is not being truthful here.   Tellingly, he has not given a reference for this bald- faced untruth.  Ellen White makes it clear that the  Adventists left the fallen churches because those  churches rejected William Miller&#8217;s message, showing  to all that they weren&#8217;t interested in seeing Jesus  come back at all.  That&#8217;s why the Millerites left the  fallen churches.<br \/>\n*Reference <a href=\"http:\/\/www.earlysda.com\/gc\/gc_chap25.html\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Advent Movement Illustrated<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Finally, Seventh-day Adventists connected the third  angel\u2019s message against worshipping the beast with  the antislavery cause. Revelation 13:1-18 reveals  that the two-horned beast enforces idolatry, and  Adventists identified America as this beast because it  professed to uphold religious and civil liberty (the two  horns) but, in reality, denied those privileges to  religious and racial minorities.6&#8221;  I have checked out  his Ellen White references supposedly supporting this  statement.  They do nothing of the kind.  Check  Testimonies Vol. 1 p. 259, 358, &#038; 360.  His other  reference is to a sermon by Charles Fitch, who died  just before October 22, 1844, so never could have  even known what the Third Angel&#8217;s Message was, as  no one understood it until AFTER October 22, 1844.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;By incorporating antislavery arguments into their  presentation of the three angels\u2019 messages,  Seventh-day Adventists made a protest against  systemic racism an important part of their  fundamental beliefs. They challenged their spiritual  descendants to carry on this faith.&#8221;  Since we&#8217;ve  already debunked his claim regarding this earlier,  there is no need to do it again.  He is just reiterating  his falsehood in order to make it stay in your brain,  make you feel guilty, and to make you leave the firm  platform of truth that God has founded for His renmant church.<\/p>\n<p>Of course we should be against racism.  At the same  time, we shouldn&#8217;t jump on the media&#8217;s bandwagon  just because this is a hot topic now.<\/p>\n<p>Why do I feel deja-vu all over again, just like what  happened after 9\/11, and our Adventist &#8220;scholars&#8221;  and &#8220;leaders&#8221; fell all over themselves trying to make  us feel bad for having supposedly anti-Islamic views?   When are we SDAs going to wake up, and throw off  the chains of Sadducees and Pharisees who are  working together to destroy Jesus in the person of  his saints?<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s be good Bereans, and follow our perfect  example, the one altogether pure and lovely &#8211; Jesus  Christ.<\/p>\n<p><\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a rebuttal of Kevin Burton&#8217;s article in the Adventist Review, which claims that basically everything the early SDA pioneers stood for, was intertwined with a stance against American &#8220;systemic racism&#8221;.
