The significance was found by the Early Christians and that is good enough for me for I follow "the Faith Once Delivered unto the Saints". I also notice the deflection at bringing up Ellen White. Where you get your teaching from matters because they shape your reality. I maintain this...

My position is not just with Tradition but with scripture, saint Paul especially. As an Eastern Christian I realized that the various Eastern Churches, Church fathers etc. read saint Paul especially on this issue, the way did I did earlier as both a non-denominational Charismatic, and earlier...

Dear @Brakelite I got the following things on my side besides Jesus (obviously) :) 1) The plain text of the New Testament 2) the unanimous testimony of the Ancient Church, starting with various Apostolic Fathers that came immediately on the heels of the writing of the NT. 3) I got the...

Alright I will make this as tactful as possible to not break any rules. I also will try to avoid hot button issues like Trinitarianism and Arianism although I will have to mention things in passing and those things are really important in terms of Church history. 1) Doctrinal Structural...

Well, the first instance of this I have seen has been with apologetics against Islam. There is a Coptic priest that has something like a 60 million dollar price on his head for speaking out against Islam. He does so because in Islam they believe their faith is the most beautiful, true and...

By antics, I refer to the passive aggressive attempts to proselytize using the Sabbath and Sunday issue. Some of the Adventists are so bad, they really do everything in their power try to instill some kind of fear or paranoia in you over it. And it is never really clear why that would be...

This is one of those things that I knew would happen eventually, and I would not normally be that aggressive for such things. Where I knew Adventists were a little weird but still considered them within the boundaries of Christianity. But all their antics over Sabbath and Sunday caused me...

Absolutely! Because this is not just Biblical truth. Before there was "Biblical" there was the Apostolic Preaching and this essential fact was part of that. It was part of the most fundamental message of Christianity, the Gospel that is the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ...

Amen! As I said on another board, Sunday worship was an important part of the ancient Christian witness. Not only did they proclaim the gospel and the resurrection on Sunday, but that message was also preached and reinforced by worshipping on Sunday. Ancient Christians also were sabbath...

Thanks for posting this! I have been battling the Seventh Day Adventists on Christian Forums over this stuff. In fact, just got banned today over it. :)

OK everybody I just got banned on Christian Forums for posting stuff against Seventh Day Adventists, aka SDA. And its been maybe 2 years or so, since I've been on this site. The last time, was when I got a one month ban on the political board at Christian Forums for offending liberal...

Didn't vote. I'm mostly against tattoos. At least for people living in the West, where they often don't represent anything positive, and can negatively affect your employment causing you to cover them up when at work etc. But I have had friends from Egypt and Ethiopia that have cross...

Thanks Hidden! :)

Rocky! I got a one month ban from the forum, for breaking some pretty silly rules. I'm enjoying this old discussion, hope the people posting in this thread are still here.
