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

    I love that you are asking these questions David. They are challenging for both sides of the discussion. You are showing an honest desire to understand truth, and for others to do the same. I commend you for being truly inquiring, and not stubbornly set in your preconceived ideas and beliefs...

    You will not accept anything we tell you concerning the new covenant while you don't believe everything God told you about the old covenant.

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

    The only reason any of us are discussing the Sabbath at all is because at some time in this thread a non Sabbath keeper, followed by others, decided to judge Sabbath keepers, contrary to the very text you quoted. All we are doing is defending the reasons why we observe it. We aren't judging...

    Seventh-day Adventist

    @Scott Downey In public labor bring your evidences, clear and plain, from the Word of God. A Thus saith the Lord is the strongest testimony you can possibly present to the people. LET NONE BE EDUCATED TO LOOK TO Sister White, but to the mighty God, who gives instruction to Sister White.—...

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

    After all the to-ing and fro-ing, it is at least good to know that no-one is arguing with my basic premise, that America is in trouble. And why is that? Because the American churches generally, have abandoned the biblical precept of righteousness by faith, and are, in an increasingly serious...

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

    All you've demonstrated above is that you have a vivid imagination. I see no evidence of any of the above in scripture, and it hasn't gone by unnoticed that you didn't use scripture as the basis for your ideas. Allow me please to fill you in on a little history. You may confirm what I'm telling...

    Wondering the same. David? Sorry I didn't get back to you on something. Been busy lately and not getting in here as often as I used to .

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

    First, it's not a Jewish Sabbath. What do the scriptures say as to whose Sabbath it is? Second, no-one is suggesting, nor has anyone done so in the past, that we are only to be in Christ one day a week. Where do you get these ideas from? "These Sunday preachings"? Paul only preached to...

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

    There is but one instance in scripture of Paul speaking to anyone on the first day of the week. And at least 50 occasions specifically mentioned of Paul speaking and/or meeting on the Sabbath, and not always in the synagogue. Considering he was the apostle to the Gentiles, it seems he was...

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

    Please read... And think... KJV Acts 13:42-44 42 And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath. 43 Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas...

    Peter the Rock?

    ...you may read the Bible from Genesis to Revelation, and you will not find a single line authorizing the sanctification of Sunday. The Scriptures enforce the religious observance of Saturday, a day which we never sanctify. —The Faith of Our Fathers, by James Cardinal Gibbons, Archbishop of...

    Peter the Rock?

    Where? Where? Paul says follow the traditions he taught and practised. Not what future popes would command without the authority. Except they didn't. Show me one example on scripture of a meeting on the first day of the week for the purpose of worship and hearing the gospel. Just one.

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

    Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy. 4th commandment. Interesting isn't it, God isn't here making the 7th day of the week holy. It's already holy, and He's commanding His people to keep it that way. How? By stopping work. By setting aside 24 hours for Him. Just Him. Whether you do this by...

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

    Agreed. We are absolutely guaranteed eternal life, in other words our salvation is more secure and sure than tonight's sunset, because God has promised, through His word, that He will finish what He has begun. Our sure living faith in that promise is based on none other than a true understanding...

    From the pen of Ellen White

    It's interesting that the nearly all the criteria you post above are for men, not women. Tell me. What criteria do you suppose was needful for someone to be an evangelist...a prophet... Or one sent by God for a particular purpose in the church to encourage people away from their lethargy and...

    From the pen of Ellen White

    You read just one book of hers, and then tell me she is brain damaged. How about you start with Steps to Christ. It isn't that big. I'm sure your big enough to tackle the responsibility of being honest and courageous enough to make the attempt.
