Revelation Chapter 13
VERSE 11 continued “Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon.”
For centuries the title “Supreme Head of the Church on Earth” has been emblazoned on the crown of the British monarch and surmounted by a...
THE TWO-HORNED BEAST
Once we have seen the history of the ten-horned beast, we are introduced to a second player in this drama. One reason the ten-horned beast recovered from its Reformation wound is that this new player demonstrates that there is yet left some real church- state power -- even...
We continue now with the comments made by one of our forum members (Robert Dirrick) on our reply on the Seventh Day Adventist beliefs concerning the Son of God. (See Part 1)
Roberts continues: If you want a proof text that Jesus the Word with God specifically is without beginning: In Hebrews 3...

We continue with our examination of the differences between Seventh Day Adventist and Bible Students in regards to,
Creation: and the Seventh Day Adventist belief that “…the Bible speaks of other worlds populated by intelligent beings…”
Let us here use our God given ability to reason, and...
Continuing with our examination of the differences between Seventh Day Adventist and Bible Students our next subject is
Creation: Seventh Day Adventist state:

Revelation Chapter 13
VERSE 9 “If anyone has an ear, let him hear.”
IF ANYONE HAS AN EAR, LET HIM HEAR: This refrain carries us back to the messages to the seven churches (Chapters 2 & 3). It is always coupled there with (and here, no doubt, is meant to bring to mind) the words: TO HIM WHO...
Revelation Chapter 13
VERSE 8 “All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.”
AND ALL WHO DWELL ON THE EARTH: This class represents those with an interest in the status quo – people with...
Revelation Chapter 13
VERSE 7 “It was granted to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. And authority was given him over every tribe, tongue, and nation.”

It is most likely that this sentence is spurious...
We continue with our comparisons of the Seventh Day Adventist beliefs and the Bible Students. We were discussing their belief in The Trinity, first with respects to The Father and presently with regards to The Son. We continue.

“John, the disciple, says, “In the beginning was...
In our previous post we addressed the issue of the Sabbath, and the Seventh Day Adventist belief that it should be observed on Saturday. As stated, Bible Students do not hold to this belief, but believe rather that every day is holy to the Lord, but we also believe that everyone should worship...
We return now to the question posed by one of our forum members, viz.
Why didn't anybody interpret Revelation the way you do before Charles Russel Taze and Ellen G. White came along? The commonalities are astonishing.
I realize that the “commonalities” which you are suggesting here are in...
Revelation Chapter 13
VERSE 6 “Then he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, His tabernacle, and those who dwell in heaven.”
AND HE OPENED HIS MOUTH IN BLASPHEME: It was Papacy’s practice to destroy by condemnation – evil speaking (blaspheme).
AGAINST GOD, TO...
Revelation Chapter 13
VERSE 5 “And he (the beast) was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and he was given authority to continue for forty-two months.”
AND THERE WAS GIVEN TO HIM:
Remember what we learned about the construction of this chapter in our opening statements on...
