The Straight Testimony|Dr. Conrad Vine

Explore the history of Adventist responses to totalitarianism in this sobering message from Conrad Vine. Through the examples of World War I, World War II, and the recent COVID-19 pandemic, discover a pattern of compromise by church leadership in the face of state pressure, leading to persecution of faithful members. Contrast the German church’s support for war and Nazism with the courage of conscientious objectors. Examine the parallels with modern events and the potential for future crises of conscience, urging believers to study Scripture for themselves, uphold liberty of conscience, and prepare to stand firm in the final conflict.
