This, Aug 13 2007, letter was my final appeal to Russell Standish, sent through his dear and precious wife, Glenice. It saddens me greatly that Russell was killed in a car accident on May 2 2008. I do not know of any person that was as blessed with many God-given talents as Russell and his twin brother Colin. Alas, these talents were utilized to the fullest to uphold allegiance to a now-God-devoid church. I trembled when I learned that amongst the latest manuscripts that Russell was actively working on was one in support of the Trinity. I pray earnestly that Colin would not continue this project, which is an anathema to our loving heavenly Father. Only in heaven will it be known the extent of damage that their writings [the dear Standish twins] have caused to His cause, by helping Satan to trap [for ever] His people within the SDA Church. Alas to the man who is found to be on the wrong side of the great controversy! May we resolve to never fight His plans and to be willing always to submit to His leadings, so that He can use us for His honor and glory.  

Dear Glenice,

Thank you for trying to fax me, and for sending the requested pages by mail. I appreciate it very much. Thank you for the email address of the White Estate. I will contact then right away.

You mention that the church organization is bereft in Australia. I ask: Is it any better else where in the whole world? We are praying that the call to 'come out of her my people' will be sounded by the stalwart twins before too late? The delay in giving loudly this call now is resulting in the loss of precious souls trapped in this wicked and God-forsaken church.

The time has come to stop separating the church from the organization. There is no biblical nor SOP support for it. When the organization has become corrupt and fallen, so has the church; for the two are one, and inseparable. I have yet to see a sound study that can support this phantom separation, by which the Historic SDA leaders are basing their decision not separate from the SDA Church, so long as they are withdrawing from the organization/structure. May I say that this is the most illogic position that any sincere follower of God can undertake. There is not 'thus says the Lord' for such a weird position, dear Glenice. I would be eager to be shown where Ellen White has made a distinction between the church and the organization that runs the church.

I know that I am preaching to the choir. But it is tragic that the call (may I say the final call) is not yet given out by any of the Historic SDAs. Please remind Dr. Russell of the GC 29, 30 Jew who kept warning the residents of Jerusalem for 7 years of the impending peril, but never himself called the people to come out of Jerusalem when it was possible to do so. He ended up dying with all the other disobedient Jews.

It would be most tragic for the Historic SDA leaders to repeat the experience of this faithful yet disobedient Jew. I love and admire the Standish twins and hate seeing them forfeit their crowns by failing to obey our Lord Jesus Christ.

In His love,

Galal.
