    Here is why, as an Adventist, I believe America is in Trouble.

    My friend. We know that already. We have already entered. Me personally, 1976. Born again, converted, forgiven, with a new life ahead of me. See thread "why is it important to keep the Sabbath' for a fuller story. Resting spiritually in Jesus after having been saved does not negate resting...

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    Indeed Jesus offers rest to all who come to Him in faith. But what you have done is turned it into a religion all on its own, and in doing so you avoid actual obedience and surrender to His higher authority. You have made up your own form of dedication much like Cain, and you are now doing to...

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    I first learned of the Sabbath 20 years after first coming to know Jesus. I learned about the Sabbath at a time of deep backsliding, then soul searching, then hearing and experiencing God's word to me, "seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness". I learned from the Psalms that...

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    If there was a change in which day is "My holy day", God would have clearly said. KJV Amos 3:7 7 Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    Nothing in there that dissuades me from not only entering His rest, but also honouring His day.

    Here is why, as an Adventist, I believe America is in Trouble.

    Here it is, again. A mixture of straw man, and whatever "breaking the Sabbath rest of God" means. Basically, the above statement is lazy, intellectually dishonest, spiritually devoid of substance, and holds no relevance to who Seventh Day Adventists are . Of course, you would know that if you...

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    True. Also true. However, because a spirit is teaching you something that the scriptures don't speak of (we notice you cannot trust the spirit to teach us, so you have to elaborate on the last quote) then whatever spirit is teaching you isn't holy.

    Who is suggesting that they are justified by the law?

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    Your first mistake was in calling the Sabbath Jewish. Did not Jesus state that the Sabbath was made for man? When did that happen? Before or after Abraham? Well before... At creation. At creation, the Lord's Day was established and made for mankind. Although some would claim there weren't any...

    Keeping the Sabbath tells people Who you Worship

    Take a read through some of the latest encyclicals from the current Pope. He advocates a system of church and state government on a global scale that would enforce the removal of "abundance" from some in order to appease the demands of the less fortunate. He summarises the concept as appealing...

    Keeping the Sabbath tells people Who you Worship

    Or, the inferred part suggests that if you don't observe the 7th day Sabbath, then whoever you do worship may not be the Creator. There are innumerable Christian denominations, individuals, and churches that no longer believe Genesis. They teach evolution. Maybe theistic evolution, but still...

    Moses. Was willing to die himself in order to avert God's judgement on Israel. Indeed He did. So why throw it back in His face?

    Yeah. Interesting that isn't it. It's almost as if the wages of sin is no longer death.

    Keeping the Sabbath tells people Who you Worship

    We are all children of Israel. Do you realise the church of the old testament...see Acts 7... And the church of the new testament, are all one church? In Revelation 12 the pure woman depicted there is a metaphor for the church. In the old testament she carried the Messiah in her womb, and...

    Keeping the Sabbath tells people Who you Worship

    Becoming childlike as an adult doesn't mean you leave your intellectual capabilities at the door. If you view those climbing tools as the easy light yoke shared with your Saviour, you'll make it. Man-made contraptions built to make life easier, or even assist in accomplishing great feats in...

    You feel judged because someone explains how they feel about the Sabbath? Maybe it's you doing the judging?
