3/5/2001 -- Allegations of Seventh-day Adventists bribing officials in Burundi -
Recently the Seventh-day Baptist church has been attempting to organize work in Burundi. According to their church paper, Adventists attempted to block their efforts:
"In December 2000, we received a message alleging that Adventists bribed the local government to deny organization status to the Seventh-day Baptist church in Burundi. This was disappointing to the members, but they still are determined to get the status they need to begin reaching out. Let us pray that the work of Satan being done through these dissidents will soon be vanquished, and that the work of the Lord will continue forward."
(The Sabbath Recorder, Feb. 2001, p. 19)
