Also, the age-old dogma that Jesus Christ (second coming) returned invisibly to earth in 1914 has been discarded, saying that it has no sound scriptural basis.
The Governing Body stated in the letter:
“We now believe this to be in error. We must admit that this adventist practice entails human speculation without sound scriptural basis”
While admitting that the doctrinal changes may prove disconcerting to believers whom have been hurt or lost their loved ones because of earlier stance on blood transfusion,
the Governing Body admonished them to embrace the changes with the spirit of love and forgiveness.
