Glad you brought this up. Who are we talking about again...oh yes. Gentile Christians. That was what the council was for. To settle a dispute within the church. Acts 15:13-20. So they gave instruction at that time only 4 specific guidelines. They restricted it to 4 because they didn't want...

And yet he also said there is no condemnation for them that are in Christ Jesus. It would seem strange indeed if Paul was excluding obedient Christians from the "no condemnation" group, while you seem to want to. Particularly when everywhere else in the scriptures it is the obedient who are...

First, you forget whose commandments they are. They aren't mine. I'm not trying to entice you into obeying me. Obey God. If you think you need not do that, then have the courage to say so, with your reasons. I think it fascinating you believe we don't appreciate what you term, the...

So? I'm not sure what you are trying to prove here. “Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart. ” 2 Corinthians 3:3 KJV...

Yes, but not everyone builds on the right foundation... “For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ. ” 1 Corinthians 3:11 KJV https://www.unfeignedbible.app/1.Corinthians.3.11

Does the leopard change his spots? Does that do good which is accustomed to do evil? We cannot change ourselves. We cannot lower ourselves into the water of baptism any more than Christ could Crucify Himself. Nor can we die to self without Christ. Any changes that are made at all run...

So my perceived failings are your excuse?

Which do you believe is more reliable? Your heart or God's word?

Correct. We observe a global universal Sabbath created for all mankind on the 7th day of the week. There was never any such thing as a Jewish Sabbath.

And here you go again with your passive aggressive war against the commandments. And too afraid to admit that obedience to all Ten Commandments must of necessity become apparent in anyone's life who submits themselves to Christ, because we are called to walk as He walked, and He kept all His...

Later. The cost comes not from receiving Christ, but from walking as He walked.

That is incorrect. As I explained above, Advent absolutely includes context and it fits smoothly and easily into the Lord's style of conversation and revelation. I think you need to get some basics of your own theology in order before you think you can correct Advent on issues top deep for you...

Indeed. But there are numerous promises and prophecies that speak in the first person present, the discerning reader not needing to eisegete the scriptures to know it is referring to a future time and event, not related to present circumstances. Here are some classic and obvious examples. “7...

Mmm. So His heavenly Father's house is not in heaven?

After our resurrection, we will have immortal bodies...not flesh and blood...but glorified bodies such as angels have and the Lord Himself. They are physical in that they can touch and be touched, (as the angel led Lot out of Sodom by the hand, and Jesus hugging His disciples and inviting...

Being a gift does not mean that it comes without conditions. The first and foremost is to believe in Jesus. Faith. That does not mean to believe He exists. But to trust in Him implicitly every day of your life, and act on that faith. Then we exercise that faith by dying. Not physically...

I'm a little concerned that whatever I offer will either be designated "symbolic", or a metaphor for a cherished false doctrine. Nevertheless, you asked, ,so. You are incorrect. Adventist eschatology firmly affirms Christ's second coming as the event that culminates in His taking His Bride...

Not in every case, for many throughout the world, are having dreams and visions, leading them to Christ, and many as i said above, observing the sabbath as a result. It isn't must about the law, although i know you would have it so. Where the law is available, it will reveal to the sincere...

Where in scripture does it say that all days are blessed and holy? “1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. 2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. 3 And God blessed...

Missionaries have entered into villages in utterly remote areas, untouched and previously unreached by any church, to discover the people there already observing the Sabbath. As i said previously, it's about revelation and relationship. Even though you know what the Bible says, wharf the...
