The idea that the 10 commandments are more "God's word" then the rest of scripture is an addition to what scripture itself says. This is a false distinction created by SDAs in order to defend their own theology. If it was important for us to distinguish between what was "written by God" and what...

Oh.. but haven't you read what the author/authors have said.. so that YOU can answer??? Or are we just going to take your word for it that the paper is "scientific"? Well you didn't make it particularly clear that the only ones that had the right to debate in this thread were those who had paid...

What "authors" are you talking about? As far as I can determine ... "word for word" ... doesn't really mean anything at all. If you disagree then explain exactly what you mean by "word for word". For example, what in the Bible, according to you, should be interpreted "word for word", and what...

What do you mean by "word for word"? Well you're begging for it RJ, so here it comes again! I didn't say that I don't know what science is. :lol:

What "cut and paste" quotes are you talking about? And if you want to make assertions about what the "truth" is, then why don't you back them up, instead of just asserting them. I have asked you time and time again to back them up. Why do you, and ALL other SDAs fail to do so?

Why wouldn't they??? .... Unless of course you are assuming that "christain" organizations are arguing that the law has been completely abolished. I agree with you that anyone who cliams that the Mosaic law has been abolished for everyone, rather than being obsolete for Christians (you know...

Sure, everyone has prejudices, if not then prove the opposite... The fact of the matter is that I asked you a couple of questions that you skirted around by suggesting that I have prejudices, whereas (supposedly) you don't. So let me ask them again... "River Jordan": 1) what is "literalism"...

Where did my post show that I distrusted science?

Oh really, please elaborate..

Oh, the authors "dug deeper" did they? And of course they did so by exclusively looking at the "data" ... without the slightest inkling of any predjudice whatsoever? Well perhaps the "distrust" mentioned here is based on how certain people just love to repetatively create false dichotomies...

Well I'm sure you don't. No one who makes it a habit of distorting what other people say are interested in taking responsibility for their words. If you had put some thought behind your comments then you would easily be able to point out the error of my ways without shying away from me pointing...

So what did I miss?

I don't think anyone here made that claim. This is a forum created for the purpose of discussing faith issues among Christians, and that is what we are doing. And what does this thread have to do with "sunday"? If you are going to try to turn this thread into a discussion about the sabbath...

Jesus did not say anything about what "God wrote himself on stone tablets" in Matthew 5! What he actually did refer to, which is something adventists completely ignore in favor of their doctrine, is that neither the "Law or the prophets" would be abolished. And then he clearly indicated that it...

I have no idea what you are talking about here... so you will have to break it down for me. Jesus warned us about swearing oaths. And your point is that ALL commitments, promises and oaths are therefore evil? Is that what you are trying to say? I don't get it... and I still don't understand why...

Then why did you clain that I needed to pay closer attention? :blink: As simple as that is it? How utterly naive..

Exactly! And what you are basically saying here is that anything changed from the KJV is incorrect. Why? Because the KJV is correct. You might as well just say that "everyone who does not agree with me is wrong because I am right". Don't be so arrogant! If you can prove your point then do so...

And, and, and... where can you defend that doctrine without going beyond what is written? Scripture does not make the distinctions that you so eagerly want it to make. If you disagree then go through ALL the references to the law that Paul gives us and show us how they all refer to what YOU call...

That is about as circular as any argument gets...
