    Here is why, as an Adventist, I believe America is in Trouble.

    Ooooh, ouch. Now these unnamed villains are noxious weeds! They are among us! Goodness. On that basis then it shouldn't be too hard to find the evidence right? Davy must have inside knowledge. The angels don't know who they are yet, but Davy wants to pull out these tares on account of his...

    Here is why, as an Adventist, I believe America is in Trouble.

    KJV Luke 23:56 56 And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath day according to the commandment. Question 1. Was the above before or after the new covenant was ratified? Question 2. Who were these women? Question 3. Was the Sabbath still a commandment at this...

    Here is why, as an Adventist, I believe America is in Trouble.

    There's a difference between Christ and God, and their will for man? Who is it precisely you are talking about in post# 960? Who exactly are these Pharisaical converts that are preaching another gospel from what Paul preached? Who exactly are these who are teaching that righteousness comes...

    Here is why, as an Adventist, I believe America is in Trouble.

    Mmmm. God forbid that Christians should suggest that keeping God's commandments are a good thing to do right? There's just gotta be something very fishy about that. Trying to work their way to heaven without a doubt. Teaching and even practising heresy. Being poor role models to minors...

    Overcoming

    I mentioned to someone else recently, how many Christians when they frequent forums, "fight against flesh and blood, and demons are allowed free reign".

    Overcoming

    In his book on the life of Joseph, and in particular Joseph's rejection of Potiphar's wife, Larry Lichtenwalter writes: Joseph sees more than just Potiphar's enchanting wife~he recognizes Potiphar and God standing there. Because he sees more~because he perceives two valued relationships that...

    Bible was never written to you

    I wasn't talking about politics or the United States. That's another thread and topic altogether. All I can do is repeat what I said previously... Think about what you are missing out on if you believe it's only for others. KJV Jeremiah 29:11-13 11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward...

    Bible was never written to you

    @MatthewG Do you really believe this was not written to you? Think about what you are missing out on if you believe it's only for others. KJV Jeremiah 29:11-13 11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end...

    Keeping the Sabbath tells people Who you Worship

    Ancient calculations included part days, even part years, as a whole.

    Keeping the Sabbath tells people Who you Worship

    Is resisting the temptation to murder someone a carnal effort to earn a right standing with God? Was obedience to God's commandments ever, at any time, an effort to earn a right standing with God? I thought Israel was saved by grace through faith, not by works of the law. Same as today. Which...

    Keeping the Sabbath tells people Who you Worship

    True. There are also others who are so biblically illiterate that they don't understand that no-one can obey God's commandments unless God is with him. And if He is with them, their obedience testifies of that. KJV 1 John 5:2-4 2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love...

    Worship is the Core Issue as we see in Revelation

    Yep, I do know. As I said above. You are preaching to the choir. But what we do is directly the result of who we are. Unconverted people can sing hymns ya know. They come to church every Sunday, sing hymns, give money to the church, smile, make contacts with other church goers, greet the pastor...

    Is Sunday sacredness in the Bible?

    There is only one meeting on Sunday mentioned in scripture. The disciples did gather together on the first day of the week when Jesus appeared to them on the actual day of the resurrection. Were they meeting to worship? To read scripture? To learn? No. They were huddled together behind closed...

    Worship is the Core Issue as we see in Revelation

    I see worship not so much as something we do, although that plays a part, but rather as something we are. Not a state of doing, but a state of being, and it is what we are that motivates what we do. There are secular people in the world who wouldn't dream of breaking God's commandments. While...

    Worship is the Core Issue as we see in Revelation

    Indeed. Worship is not what we do, but what we are.

    Worship is the Core Issue as we see in Revelation

    We are born sinless and innocent, but with a sin nature that tends toward sin at every opportunity. It is this sin nature that is dealt with at the cross, and are given a new born again nature as we accept Christ's resurrected life as our own.

    Bible was never written to you

    Forgive me. This is a long article, but considering the subject matter, I think it's important. Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. Psalm 33:6 By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth...... ....9 For he...

    Amen. By beholding we are changed.

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    I am somewhat surprised you have resorted to building this straw man in the same manner so many others have attempted to do. "Those Adventists are adding to Christ's finished work". "Working their way to heaven". "Adding works to grace". I don't know if it's an intentional lie in an attempt to...
