    Spotlight On The Disasterous RCC "Celibacy" Requirement

    Anti-Catholic and Kingdom Hall are terms that have nothing to do with Adventism. Russell was a 33 degree Mason, which doctrine is similar to RCC doctrine in many areas. The Millerite movement can easily be seen as a fulfillment of the "bitter book" in Revelation 10. During a time that the...

    Spotlight On The Disasterous RCC "Celibacy" Requirement

    LOL, I guess when all you have in response to "thus saith the LORD" is "thus saith the pope", the default is always ad hominem, right?

    Spotlight On The Disasterous RCC "Celibacy" Requirement

    In February 1893, the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists appealed to the U.S. government for its decision to close the World's Fair on Sundays with resolutions adopted which had to do with the 1st Amendment "establishment clause" - "Congress shall make no law respecting the...

    Spotlight On The Disasterous RCC "Celibacy" Requirement

    Doesn't Leviticus 19:17 essentially say that if we fail to warn others of what is sin - "the transgression of the law" - that we actually hate them? Just as if we allow someone to board an out-of-service elevator that we know will plunge them to their death?

    What are we really dealing with here?

    Sounds good. Though I appreciate reading the nuts and bolts of competing eschatological ideas.

    Spotlight On The Disasterous RCC "Celibacy" Requirement

    So, who's condemning the billion members? Not one person here that I've seen. However, there is plenty of condemnation of RCC LEADERSHIP (and rightly so). Unlike the RCC which teaches you can't go to heaven unless you acknowledge the supremacy of the pope, my church teaches that the majority of...

    What are we really dealing with here?

    I have to respectfully disagree for the time being for these reasons: According to Gibbon, Augustus “dictated a law by which the future prince (Tiberius) was invested with an authority equal to his own, over the provinces and the armies.” (Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, vol 1. p.30.)...

    What are we really dealing with here?

    Interesting. I'd bet a bazzillion dollars you feel that way about it pointing to an end of time Jubilee because of where it says "70 weeks are determined (cut off)...to finish the transgression and make an end of sin, to make reconciliation for iniquity and bring in everlasting righteousness, to...

    Spotlight On The Disasterous RCC "Celibacy" Requirement

    The liberal mainstream news media despises Bible fundamentalist Protestantism with a depth of hatred that is no where near that of its opinion of the Bible-marginalizing RCC, especially since Jorge began singing their favorite songs. The leftist media would not hesitate for a moment to seize...

    Spotlight On The Disasterous RCC "Celibacy" Requirement

    When taken together, the phrases "went up straightway out of the water", "they went down both into the water...they came up out of the water", and even the very oft repeated words "was baptized", demonstrate that a sufficient amount of water to fully immerse the baptismal candidate was needed...

    What are we really dealing with here?

    If we start counting from 457 B.C., we come to 27 A.D, when Jesus was baptized at "about 30 years old".

    What are we really dealing with here?

    Not 29 A.D., but 27 A.D., for the following reasons: Artaxerxes' first decree is far more comprehensive fulfillment of "restore and build Jerusalem" than the examples you have given in Nehemiah which pertain only to the construction of "walls". Included in the first decree are: rebuilding the...

    What are we really dealing with here?

    OK, lets deal with the decrees. 4 that I'm aware of: Cyrus, Darius, and two by Artaxerxes. Key is Process of Elimination. Daniel's prophecy said specifically "...from the commandment to restore and build Jerusalem..." Yet, Cyrus' and Darius' decrees found in Ezra chapters 1-6 are limited to...

    Spotlight On The Disasterous RCC "Celibacy" Requirement

    Jesus "came up out of the water" after His baptism, which means He had to have gone "down into the water". Look it up. "Baptizo" means "to immerse" -- not sprinkle, not tie-dye, not pass under a spigot. As long as you're demanding chapter and verse, how about showing us where we are to call a...

    Spotlight On The Disasterous RCC "Celibacy" Requirement

    1) Yes, most people are angry, incensed, infuriated at pathetic Catholics priests who abuse minors of all ages and ruin their lives before they've even begun to live them. 2) As a Catholic, I'm not surprised you are familiar with all the terminology which describes the different facets of...

    Have you seen Ray Comfort's "180"? Ray's street-preaching at its best!

    What are we really dealing with here?

    The two following eschatological principles are well substantiated: 1) "Repetition and Enlargement" where God reviews the events of preceding prophecies while adding more details to each successive prophecy like any good classroom teacher, and 2) "prophecy begins in the day of the prophet and...

    epostle 1, there's nothing "phony" about me - for I know the Christ of the Bible, not the false Christ, Antichrist, Prince of Pedophiles enthroned in Saint Peter's Basilica. You said "Sex with teenagers is NOT pedophilia." #1- You appear to be a pedophilia sympathizer, so please do not approach...
