Dr. Samuele Bachiocci?

[St_Violet]

I’m sure there are an awful alot of people who has heard of Dr. Bachiocci, he is probably one of the top Seventh Day Adventist Theologians and Historian, that is doing a great job keeping the seventh day adventist church honest after all their years of lying. he was raised in Rome and was educated in Catholic schools all his life, infact was even given a medal by the Pope, He was the first SDA to admit that Ellen G White knew very little of history, that the Pope’s hat doesn’t equal 666, and that there are several errors in their book " The Great Controversy" which sadly is still being promoted. He has even made the seventh day adventist look really bad, when he discovered that the changing of the sabbath goes beyound the Council of Trent, Laodicea and beyond Pope Pius the fifth and also that the History of the Papacy goes beyond Pope Leo the Great.

Now what I do not know what, what is his stance on the Sabbath?, does he believe that the sabbath was changed by evil men?

What do Catholics feel about Dr. Bachiocci

And I would also like to know what the seventh day adventist feel about Dr. Bachiocci, because he really seems to give the SDA church something to think about

Does Dr. Bachiocci even consider himself an SDA?

Endtimes Issues newsletter (#134,) Dr, Samuele Bacchiocchi, Adventist scholar, criticises the popular Adventist tradition (as he calls it) that claims that the pope’s tiara has the words “Vicarius Filii Dei” written on it, and that these words add up to 666.

Bacchiocchi says:

Another example of the blinding effect of tradition is the popular interpretation of the number of the beast “666” [Rev 13:18], as VICARIUS FILII DEI, a title allegedly used by the Pope on his Tiara-a claim that has been proven to be wrong. In a recent Sabbath School Quarterly devoted to the Book of Revelation, Dr. Angel Rodriguez, Director of BRI, acknowledged that the traditional interpretation, though popular, lacks textual and historical support. Instead, he proposed the figurative interpretation of “666” as the symbol of incompletion, imperfection and rebellion. Concerned Adventists expressed their bitter disappointment with the new figurative interpretation of 666. They viewed it as a rejection of the traditional interpretation developed by our pioneers.
