PAULSEN'S & BACCHIOCCHI'S ALMA MATERS

Paulsen's Alma Mater

(Shared by a reader)

Will this wake anyone up?….
just read on…..

What does Pope Benedict XVI, Cardinal Walter Kaspar, President of the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity; Dr. Hans Kung, a prolific Roman Catholic scholar who served as an expert theological advisor to members of the Second Vatican Council; and Dr. Jan Paulsen, President of the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventist have in common?

The UNIVERSITY OF TUBINGEN in Germany!
From web site:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_Tubingen

"The University of Tübingen has a history of innovative thought, particularly in theology, in which the university and the Tubinger Stiff are famous to this day. Philipp Melanchthon (1497-1560) the prime mover in building the German school system and a chief figure in the Protestant Reformation, helped establish its direction. Among Tübingen's eminent students (and/or professors) have been the astronomer Johannes Kepler; JOSEPH RATZINGER, former Cardinal and currently Pope Benedict XVI. ….."

FAMOUS ALUMNI:
http://www.answers.com/topic/eberhard-karls-university-of-t-bingen
Theology
· Karl Barth, Swiss Christian theologian
· Dietric Bonhoeffer, Lutheran theologian, preacher and opponent of the Nazi-Regime.
· Walter Cardinal Kasper, Cardinal of the Roman Catholic Church.
· Hans Kung, Roman Catholic theologican, critic of the catholic doctrine (now banned from teaching Roman Catholic theology).
· His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI, formerly known as Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger.
· Philip Schaff, Church historian.
· Miroslav Volf, Christian theologian at Yale University.
· Jan Paulsen, Seventh-day Adventist Church President!
Paulsen is also the first Adventist Church world president to hold a doctorate degree, which he obtained from the University of Tubingen.

The following is taken from the Pope’s biography:

http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/benedict_xvi/elezione/biografia_en.html

"After this I accepted a position at the University of Tübingen, with the idea of being closer to the ‘school of Tübingen’, which did theology in a historical and ecumenical way. In 1968 there was a very violent explosion of Marxist theology , and so when I was offered a position at the new University of Regensburg…."

Can you believe this? The future pope leaves Tubingen for another university because of the Marxist theology! [actually they are all the same philosophy, just tricking us] More from another biography about him:

http://www.ratzingerfanclub.com/Biography.html

1966 Ratzinger takes a second chair in dogmatic theology at the University of Tübingen. His appointment is vigorously supported and secured by fellow professor Hans Küng. …..
1968 A wave of student uprisings sweeps across Europe, and Marxism quickly becomes the dominant intellectual system at Tübingen, indoctrinating not only his students but many of the faculty as well. Witnessing the subordination of religion to Marxist political ideology, Ratzinger observes:
There was an instrumentalization by ideologies that were tyrannical, brutal, and cruel. That experience made it clear to me that the abuse of faith had to be resisted precisely if one wanted to uphold the will of the Council [Salt of the Earth].
1969 Scandalized by his encounter with radical ideology at Tübingen, Ratzinger moves back to Bavaria to take a teaching position at the University of Regensburg. He eventually becomes dean and vice president and later, theological advisor to the German bishops.

JAN PAULSEN: From the General Conference web page:
http://www.gcsession.org/media-kit/pdf/jan_paulsen_bio.pdf

EDUCATION:
After completing his early education in Narvik, Norway, Paulsen attended the Danish Junior College, Vejlefjord, where he received ministerial training between 1952-1954. In 1957 he earned a BA at Emmanuel Missionary College, now Andrews University. After completing his MA studies at the Theological Seminary in Washington, D.C. in 1958, he earned a Bachelor of Divinity in 1962 from the Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary, newly relocated at Andrews University. In June, 1972, Paulsen completed his graduate studies at the Tubingen University in Germany. He was the first Adventist to earn a Doctor in Theology from the Protestant faculty of any German university. His dissertation research was illustrative of how historic Christianity settles into a primal religion culture.
[you notice how they stress PROTESTANT. Well, that is a white lie [no pun intended].

"Tubingen University was founded in 1477 by Duke Eberhard as Reformation seminary to train Protestant ministers during the Reformation. Malanchthon, the German Reformer who did much to help the cause of the Protestant Reformation, received his M.A. from Tubingen University in 1512. Unfortunately, by 1817, Tubingen added a Roman Catholic faculty to the school and this resulted in the unfolding of Protestantism! Consequently, Tubingen University became one of the first religious seminaries to teach Ecumenical Theology." And, according to the new Pope, it was also teaching Marxism Theology by 1968!

Now, why in the world does Jan Paulson attend Tubingen? It is steeped in Marxist theology, and that is from the pope’s own mouth! Was Walter Kaspar one of his professors? What about Dr. Hans Kung?

The following is from the web site:
http://www.un.org/Dialogue/Kung.html

Professor Dr. Hans Küng (Switzerland)
Professor of Ecumenical Theology, University of Tübingen, President of the Foundation for a Global Ethic (Welethos).
Dr. Hans Küng is a scholar of theology and philosophy and prolific writer. He studied philosophy and theology at the Gregorian University (Rome) [I wonder if Bacchiochi was one of his classmates!], the Sorbonne, and the Institut Catholique de Paris. In addition, Dr. Küng holds numerous awards and honorary degrees from several universities.
Dr. Küng is President of the Foundation for a Global Ethic (Weltethos). From 1960 until his retirement in 1996, he was Professor of Ecumenical Theology and Director of the Institute for Ecumenical Research at the University of Tübingen. Folks, that is the time period when Paulsen attended, 1972.

Another alumni of Tubingen:
http://www.fiu.edu/~mirandas/bios-k.htm

Cardinal Walter Kasper became a member of the theological faculty of Tubingen in 1958. He is now Secretary of the Pontifical Council for the Promotion of Christian Unity. His job is to coordinate all the ecumenical activities for the Roman Catholic Church.

HELLO OUT THERE!
Samuele Bacchiocchi is the first Adventist to graduate from the Jesuit Pontifical Gregorian University and Paulsen is the first Adventist to graduate from Tubingen. Here is a description of Bacchiochi’s alma mater:

"The Gregorian University (formerly the Collegio Romano) was created in 1551 by Saint Ignatius of Loyola, founder of the Jesuits. It is the first school established by the Jesuits in Rome. Among the illustrious ex-alumni there are 14 popes."

Wonder how many other Jesuit trained SDA theologians we have running around, ones that are not so bold to let us know where they were trained? Actually these two men were probably trained beforehand, just went here to polish their theology, so they could be invited into higher Adventist circles. Don't be surprised if the SDA Church organization tries to get us 'simple' Adventists to accept the Sunday Law.

(Temcat's note) Gregorianna: Continuing the topic of Bacchiocchi and his Alma Mater:

Even if he was a solid rock SDA - would it not have been presumption to attend the flag-ship Jesuit university?- the greatest one in the world?— the one established originally to destroy Protestantism??

Would it not be presumption of the rankest sort to say, "Oh, I won't be deceived; I can stick my head into the lion's very mouth; I can breath the sulphurous fumes of the Dragon's very breath; and I am so strong in the faith, I will not be effected!!" This quote answers the whole idea:

"I was shown the necessity of those who believe that we are having the last message of mercy, being separate from those who are daily imbibing new errors. I saw that neither young nor old should attend their meetings; for it is wrong to thus encourage them while they teach error that is a deadly poison to the soul and teach for doctrines the commandments of men. The influence of such gatherings is not good. If God has delivered us from such darkness and error, we should stand fast in the liberty wherewith He has set us free and rejoice in the truth. God is displeased with us when we go to listen to error, without being obliged to go; for unless He sends us to those meetings where error is forced home to the people by the power of the will, He will not keep us. The angels cease their watchful care over us, and we are left to the buffetings of the enemy, to be darkened and weakened by him and the power of his evil angels; and the light around us becomes contaminated with the darkness." -TI- Early Writings of Ellen G. White -PG- 124

And then he is not repentant for this - he has been known to appear before SDA congregations sporting his full Jesuit robes - and then whines that some people say he is a Jesuit! Well...duhh! If one is TRULY walking in the faith of our forefathers - one would be ashamed of such stuff! A true lover of God's pure truth and a respecter of the millions of tortured martyrs for Jesus who's moans and cries still echo in the ears of the Lord of Sabbaoth; would not be caught dead showing off these vile robes!

Even if he went in a saint--and a saint wouldn't go there; there's no way he could not be contaminated!

Fools walk where even angels would fear to tread: and cannot this be said also for those who dote on his words??

I'm guessing you've never met or listened to Mr. Samuele Bacchiocchi. I am a literature evangelist and a Seventh Day Adventist. So is my family. I grew up studying Ellen White and my Bible. I also heard and met Mr. Bacchiocci. He preaches the Sabbath as the seventh day, my friend. His Italian doctoral dissertation, presented at and published by the Pontifical Gregorian University Press, was actually about how the Catholic church changed the day of worship from Saturday to Sunday - he had access, due to his choice of school, to the most ancient documents available. And since he graduated from this school legitimately, the church had to endorse and print his book for a time. Consider how a book written by a Seventh Day Adventist quoting documents from the Catholic church, and making a sound argument against worshiping other that the Biblical Sabbath - endorsed and printed by the Catholic press, would be a potent tool to win Christians everywhere to consider their error in worshiping on a day not hallowed by God. - your article makes me consider You more likely a jesuit, than Mr. Bacchiocci. For anyone who would like to verify what I have written - here is the website so You may informedly decide. (also, note the titles of some of his books: "From Sabbath to Sunday: A Historical Investigation of the Rise of Sunday Observance in Early Christianity" , "The Sabbath Under Crossfire: A Biblical analysis of Recent Sabbath/Sunday Developments.") http://www.biblicalperspectives.com

Tim Arrington or Raven*:

I just don't understand how any Bible reader, or student of the Spirit of Prophecy could believe that attending , and graduating from the epitome of Jesuitical Indoctrination Institutes (Their primary purpose is to crush the Reformation, and promote the Roman Catholic Dogmas as Biblical) could ever qualify a child of God in anything field of endeavor. It evades me, and quite simply baffles me that there are such gullible people in the world, let alone in the ranks of the "so-called Remnant Church"?
Please stop pretending that you just don't recognize that if you attend the school of satan, it does not enhance your understanding of the simple truths contained in the Bible. What does the wheat have to do with the chaff? We are not to be naive; If so, the enemy will surely fool us.

When Jesus sent forth his Disciples, he instructed them:

Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves...Matthew 10:16

I don't believe that He wanted them to mix-it-up with the enemies of God, or even attend their Istitutes of "Higher-Learning".
Come on now, Tim or Raven?
You know better than that!

Newsflash----
Professore Samuele Bacchiocchi, now has an additional fellow alumnus, Adolfo Nicolas SJ, a.k.a. "the black pope". From 1968to 1971, he studied at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome, from where he obtained his Master's degree in theology, and later earned a doctorate in theology.
Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolfo_Nicol%C3%A1s

Now does Mr. Samuele Bacchiocchi, now have more credibility because such notable Jesuits graduate from this Coleggio? I think not, my friend; I believe he demostrated his true colors by venturing into the devil's lair when the Lord did not lead him there. A person is judged by who he associates himself with, my friend. It's that simple! He's just another "Short Robed Jesuit", of which the world, and yes the "Churches" are full of.

Arsenio.

Just a reminder:

"I was shown the necessity of those who believe that we are having the last message of mercy, being separate from those who are daily imbibing new errors. I saw that neither young nor old should attend their meetings; for it is wrong to thus encourage them while they teach error that is a deadly poison to the soul and teach for doctrines the commandments of men. The influence of such gatherings is not good. If God has delivered us from such darkness and error, we should stand fast in the liberty wherewith He has set us free and rejoice in the truth. God is displeased with us when we go to listen to error, without being obliged to go; for unless He sends us to those meetings where error is forced home to the people by the power of the will, He will not keep us. The angels cease their watchful care over us, and we are left to the buffetings of the enemy, to be darkened and weakened by him and the power of his evil angels; and the light around us becomes contaminated with the darkness." -TI- Early Writings of Ellen G. White -PG- 124

* If you click on your name (Tim Harrington) it brings you to a new-age-ish myspace page for a Raven. What a peculiar alias for a child of God.

P.S. You're a Taurus? Astrology?
Is that the 'Present Truth'?
No wonder you don't get it. You're deep into the philosophies of Babylon.

:) Listen, I don't mean to be so lengthy - but you know how the brain keeps handing you important things to say, even after click the 'send' button - I just wanted to include a couple of quick quotes here as well, for everyone's consideration:

"In The Sabbath Under Crossfire, Dr. Samuele Bacchiocchi examines the recent attacks against the Sabbath within the larger historical context of the origin and development of the anti-Sabbath theology. An understanding of how the abrogation view of the Sabbath began and developed through the centuries, is essential for comprehending why the Sabbath is still under crossfire today.

The book analyzes in a systematic way the most common arguments used to negate the continuity and validity of the Sabbath for today. With compelling Biblical reasoning, it unmasks the fallacies of the attempts made to reduce the Sabbath to a Mosaic institution, fulfilled by Christ and condemned by Paul."

--sounds like a book that might actually prepare people to argue in courts as to why they keep the Seventh Day...

Now, as to the other person that graduated, that you speak of as "the black pope" - I know nothing about him, and therefore I have nothing to say - other than - consider his message carefully. Because, my friend, I personally know a young man that was raised by jesuits, and who is gay - and wouldn't you know it - he teaches youth Sabbath School in a Miami area church. He is brilliant, and he does all he can to twist the minds of the young people. But I have not been able to do much about it other than pray for the situation. But it is valid that we consider carefully the message others are preaching, and validate it against God's word. We must all, Individually, know the Word, and have a living relationship with God, and be listening constantly to the Still Small Voice. Thanks for your time and virtual space!

Dear Mr. Lembert,

I am writing this, not as a comment to be posted on your site (although you are welcome to do so if you so wish), but as a serious communication from one

Adventist to another. Sir I do not mind at all if you feel a need to pick at me and belittle me to discredit me and preserve your pride and dignity, by grasping at such

straws as I addressed in my prior unprinted comment to you. I do not mind if you slander or judge me - Sir, what originally caused me to feel indignation toward

your article against Mr. Bacchiocci, was the fact that you hatefully attacked him as a person, and made groundless accusations and assumptions about his message.

Sir, you also said that we are judged by associations, to accurately paraphrase you.
Here is the real concern I have. I believe that 5 minutes of your time devoted to actually evaluating his message, would put to rest all your arguments against him. I

cannot find any justification for a statement to the effect that he is likely to try to get us simple adventists to start keeping the sunday as sabbath.
Sir, how, if you are honest with yourself and with God, can you accuse him of that, after looking at what his books and sermons are all about? Since you are very

fond of quoting Ellen White, and the Bible - both of which are wonderful things to do, I have included some quotes that I found while praying and studying today. I

admit, I lost sleep last night over this matter - but not because of the petty things you said about me, but because I am concerned for you, in unjustly slandering this

man, whom I know to be doing God's work -because of his visible fruits. And also, Sir, I am concerned for any readers from whatever denomination, for being led

away from listening to a man preaching God's commandments - especially the 4th.
I would like to appologize again for my own hasty words in my first comment to you, saying you seemed more likely a jesuit than he. Sir I am sorry to have made a

statement in a manner that would make self want to flare up and defend self. I have prayed and thought and asked of God guidance for how I might approach you on

this subject. I can do no more but pray. I do however, feel that if you will consider honestly with God and yourself, the actual message and background - and the

very visible fruits of his message both in writing and preaching, sir you will reconsider your opinion and harsh, unjustified, ungrounded accusations against him. And

I hope you will consider how you will be accountable for turning people away from one of God's messengers. Now, if he were actually preaching and teaching that

Sunday was the Sabbath - I would have zero reason to speak with you at all. I hope you will forgive my statement against you that necessitated self to defend

against me. I hope you will consider that I am your friend - not wasting your time. I am earnestly seeking perfection of character through sanctification, and to

work for God daily to win souls. I just feel we must be careful when we speak badly of others without taking into account God's leading and their works.
I welcome any further communications. I pray God blesses and guides you as you strive to do His work in sincerety and humility.
Below are the quotes and 2 links that I hope you will spend 5-10 minutes on:


Matthew 7:15-20 15 "Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. 16 "You will know them by their

fruits. Grapes are not gathered from thorn bushes, nor figs from thistles, are they? 17 "Even so, every good tree bears good fruit; but the bad tree bears bad fruit.

18 "A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, nor can a bad tree produce good fruit. 19 "Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

20 "So then, you will know them by their fruits.

Another Error--Commandments Done Away.-- Christ warns His followers, "Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they

are ravening wolves." He exhorts us not to be deceived when false shepherds present their doctrines. These men tell us that the commandments of God were done

away at the death of Christ. Shall we believe them, these men who claim to be sanctified, while they refuse to obey God? They say the Lord has told them that they

need not keep the Ten Commandments; but has the Lord told them this? No, God does not lie. {Ev 597.3}

It is a most serious matter to go from house to house, and under pretense of doing missionary work, cast in the seed of mistrust and suspicion. Each one speedily

germinates, and there is created a distrust of God's servants, who have His message to bear to the people. When God speaks through His servants, the seed [of

mistrust and suspicion] sown has developed into a root of bitterness. The word falls upon hearts that will not hear, on hearts that will not respond. No earthly or

heavenly power can find access to the soul. {2SM 70.3}
Who is accountable for these souls? Who shall eradicate that poisonous root of bitterness that has prevented them from receiving the word of the Lord? A good

sister or a brother planted the evil seed, but how can that one restore the soul thus imperiled? The tongue that should have been used to the glory of God in

speaking words of hope and faith and confidence in God's workmen has turned away a soul from Jesus Christ. Those who themselves despised the words of Christ,

and refused to hear His voice and to be converted, have leavened other minds with the leaven of evil surmisings and evilspeaking. {2SM 70.4}
This is the day of the Lord's preparation. We have no time now to talk unbelief and to gossip, no time now to do the devil's work. Let everyone beware of

unsettling the faith of others by sowing seeds of envy, jealousy, disunion; for God hears the words, and judges, not by assertions, which are yea and nay, but by the

fruit one's course of action produces. "By their fruits ye shall know them" (Matt. 7:20). The seed sown will determine the character of the harvest."--Manuscript

32a, 1896. {2SM 71.1}

*From Sabbath to Sunday*
This book presents the results of five years of painstaking research done by Dr. Bacchiocchi at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome on how the change came

about from Saturday to Sunday in early Christianity. The book has the distinction of being the first publication written by a non-Catholic ever to be published with

the Catholic imprimatur—approval. The book documents the role of the papacy in changing the Sabbath to Sunday in early Christianity.

*Divine Rest for Human Restlessness*
This book complements From Sabbath to Sunday by offering a stirring theological presentation of the relevance of the Biblical seventh-day Sabbath for our

tension-filled and restless society. You will find in this book practical principles on how to experience through the Sabbath the Savior’s rest and peace in your life.

The book has been translated in fifteen languages, helping many to discover the Sabbath as a day of joyful celebration of God's creative and redemptive love.

I can only add to what I have already said the following:

Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.*Daniel 12:10*
My fiend, my insights into the phenomenon that is the Jesuits, I can not emphasize any more than I have already done. May God bless you and give you discernment to see. Deception is the devil's greatest tool.

Perhaps a thorough reading of the Jesuit oath would be in order here. Here is a short excerpt of it.

"My son, heretofore you have been taught to act the dissembler: among Roman Catholics to be a Roman Catholic, and to be a spy even among your own brethren; to believe no man, to trust no man. Among the Reformers, to be a Reformer; among the Huguenots, to be a Huguenot; among the Calvinists, to be a Calvinist; among other Protestants, generally to be a Protestant; and obtaining their confidence, to seek even to preach from their pulpits, and to denounce with all the vehemence in your nature our Holy Religion and the Pope; and even to descend so low as to become a Jew among Jews, that you might be enabled to gather together all information for the benefit of your Order as a faithful soldier of the Pope."

A most fabulous post - I just met a catholic lady the other day, who was getting ready to The Great Controversy - and she was wondering at some of the differences between catholics and protestants (of which there are fewer and fewer as time passes). I think it would behoove everyone to read these oaths and understand the significance of the words.

Dear Anon.,

I can respect your opinion. However, allow me to point out two points:
First, the professor has passed away. Secondly, no amount of information is sufficient to prove a point for those that hold a partial opinion.

I haven't posted this article to ridicule or demean anyone, but, rather to shed light on an almost apparent error; That error is how SDA's will chose to be educated in a catholic, or a Jesuit institution attempting to receive a certificate of achievement? (so they can brag about being an expert) These trends really baffle me.

When is enough conclusive proof, enough!

Elementary, Watson!

I have mixed thoughts on Bacchiocchi's works. Yes, there is lots of solid Biblical defense that God's commandments and the Sabbath are relevant for the Christian today.
I have appreciated many of his insights and even used them in my own Bible Studies.
I have attended, and enjoyed, his lectures.

YET,
I have noticed in recent years how anti-Sabbatarians have used his work to say Adventists have been lying about the origin of Sunday. Bacchiocchi, they claim, found no evidence saying that Christians were not already keeping Sunday in the first century. Thus Sunday was THE day of worship from the start of Christianity.

He probably won't agree with the conclusion, but that's what how the anti-Sabbath people are using his material.

Bacchiocchi also downplayed EGW's inspiration (while still upholding her as a spiritual leader)

For example, she comments that among the Waldensees, Sabbath keeping continued.

"Through ages of darkness and apostasy, there were Waldenses who denied the supremacy of Rome, who rejected image worship as idolatry, and who kept the true Sabbath."GC 65

Bacchiocchi wrote:
"To my regret I found no allusion whatsoever to Sabbathkeeping among the Waldenses."

But we counter, the term "insabbati" was applied to the Waldenses in several old documents. But Bacchiocchi says it means "sandels", not Sabbath observers.

Robinson, in the History of Baptism, says, "They were called Sabbati and Sabbatati, so named from the Hebrew word Sabbath, because they kept Saturday for the Lord's day."

Goldastus, an historian living much closer to the time in question
(A.D) 1576-1635) says
They were called Insabbatati, not because they were circumcised,
but because they kept the Sabbath according to the Jewish law."
(Deutsche Biographi artilce, "Goldast" 9, 327)

Further more -- sandels were the common footwear of all peasants.

Yet, a Spanish king made this decree:

"Alphonse, king of Aragon, etc., to all archbishops, bishops, and
to all others...We command you that heretics, to wit, the Waldeneses and Insabbathi, should be expelled away from the face of God and from all Catholics and ordered to depart from our kingdom." -
Marianae Praefatio in Lucam Tudensem and quoted in Macima
Bibliotheca Veterum Patrum Vol 25 p 190

Would he write:
"Expel all the Waldenses and expel all (Insabbati) those who keep the Sabbath."

OR

Expel all the Waldenses and expel all (Insabbati) those who wear
wooden sandel shoes.

Since the decree was against "heretics" I'm sure the word meant Sabbath keepers, not people wearing sandels, especially since that was the common footwear.

Another red flag, was Bacchiocchi's attack on the 1260 years ranging from 538 to 1798.
He questioned both dates and even the siqnificence of that time period?

Also of note is the back cover of his book "From Sabbath to Sunday".

This was probably not written by him, but it definitely shows how the Jesuit teacher who guided him in his dissertation , thought about his book.

Quote from back cover:

"What are the Biblical and historical reasons for Sunday keeping? Can the Sabbath commandment be rightly invoked to enjoin Sunday observance? How can the pressing problem of the widespread profanation of the Lord's Day be solved? Dr. Samuele Bacchiocchi answers thes and other questions by investigating the Biblical basis and the historical genesis of Sunday observance."

The book has the Catholic imprimatur -- given only to books that are in agreement with Catholic thought.
