Suicide is a sin. This in no way relates to how we are allowed to insult other believers.

Jesus was making changes to the Old Law in preparation to the change of the New Covenant that went officially into effect with His death: Biblical proof? Jesus clearly was making changes to the Law (even before the cross): (Which means He was not teaching primarily Old Covenant, but New...

Jesus came not to abolish the Law (in the sense of destroying all forms of Law), but Jesus came to fulfill the Law (i.e. to nail to the cross those ordinances that were against us [like the Old Covenant ceremonial laws] (See: Colossians 2:14-17), and Jesus came to give us a more fulfilled and...

Show me where that practice is in the Bible, friend.

I did answer. You just did not catch what I was saying, friend. To summarize what I was saying, I believe that if the Old Law is no more (including the Sabbath), then we are not obligated to keep it. Colossians 2:16 makes it clear we are not to let anyone judge us if they tell us we are not...

Only 9 out of the 10 apply for New Covenant believers (with the Sabbath excluded). As I said, Colossians 2:16 (and other verses) makes it clear the Sabbath is no longer. Believers obviously obey commands like: Do not murder, do not covet, etcetera. But these are commands that we follow from...

I answered you with Scripture. Please go back and read the verses I posted.

Then my friend. If you believe that all things work together for good to those who love God (Romans 8:28), then the scenario you describe does not exist for such a believer or if they are faced with a challenging life situation with violent men, then God has a greater plan for good in it that...

I posted Scripture. It is up to folks to read those verses if they are interested in reading and believing the Bible. I came here on the forums to discuss Scripture and not to receive baseless insults or jabs.

So now we are resulting to insults?

It’s called preaching the Word and relaying to you my account of what SDA’s believe. It’s nothing personal.

First, you did not read or understand my quoting of Romans 8:28. It says: All things work together for good to those who love God. You also did not read or understand my quoting of 2 Corinthians 10:4. It says: “The weapons of our warfare are not physical [weapons of flesh and blood]” (2...

The problem is that we are not under the Old Law (Romans 6:14). We cannot be justified by the Law of Moses (Acts of the Apostles 13:39). Colossians 2:16 makes it clear that we are not to let anyone judge us according to Sabbath days. The New Covenant has made the First Covenant old (Hebrews...

My apologies to you before if you found my words offensive of my saying that SDA’s always talk about the Sabbath at every chance they get. But I was merely relaying to you my experience with them (from another forum). It’s nothing personal. It’s just my experience. Maybe you are not that...

He is using this as a case against Bible alone (plus the Anointing to Understand It) as our sole guide for all matters of faith and practice. If there were 50,000 interpretations on a airplane blueprint, it would not undo the fact that the designer had only one set interpretation or meaning in...

Jesus will return using great violence. No doubt about it. But the saints who follow Him have already lived out their faith. Anyways, we are not under the Old Testament ways anymore. We don’t sacrifice animals anymore, keep holy days, etcetera. Jesus taught Non-Violence during His earthly...

To all: Some may argue that Luke 22:36 is an example of Jesus saying we can defend ourselves with a sword (with Jesus rebuking Peter using the sword being an exception or isolated incident). But the problem is that we don’t read anywhere later in the New Testament about how the apostles had...

I don’t think a complete ban on weapons will ever happen. Maybe a greater restriction on gun laws might happen (by some slim chance), but who is going to enforce it? The floodgates to the guns have been opened. One cannot surely take the guns away from those who already have them. But I...

To all: Many go by their guns because that is all they have ever known. One must say... I must carry a gun because of some crazy who may shoot up the store. Well, somebody who drives badly can just as also equally kill you and others. What if somebody hits you in the back of the head while...
