As a result of the SDA leadership urging the church to teach in common and ignore preaching the pure cutting truths of the three angels, this led to "the General Conference, as a world confessional body or church, [being] recognized by an advisor in Canterbury at the 1969 meeting of the WCC Central Committee" (see paper prepared by B.B. Beach titled "The World Council of Churches/Seventh-day Adventist conversations and their significance").
Kama matokeo ya uongozi wa Kanisa la SDA kusihi Kanisa kufundisha yale yasiyoleta hitilafu na kutupilia mbali kuhubiri ukweli safi unaokata wa malaika watatu, hii ilipelekea Baraza Kuu, kama mseto wa ulimwengu au Kanisa, [kuweza] kutambuliwa na mshauri kule Canterbury katika mkutano wa mwaka 1969 wa Kamati Kuu ya WCC (angalia muhtasari ulioandaliwa na B.B. Beach wenye kichwa The World Council of Churches/Seventh-day Adventist conversations and their significance).
