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

    But aren't those activities contrary to the will and law of God? I thought the American government strive to establish laws reflecting the moral standards as expressed in scripture. Am I wrong?

    Dave is right. I can't perfectly obey all the commandments. In fact, I can't even obey one of them, let alone all ten. At least, not by myself. But in Christ I can do all things. By faith in God's grace and power, He will change me. God is able and willing to do whatever it takes in order to...

    Scriptures In Song - Oldies but Goodies!

    I am going to be a helpless slobbering mess in heaven for the full 1000 years, from just listening to the millions of angels singing in 7 part harmony.

    Grace. And only grace.

    From a friend. What Do You Know of Grace? Do you see God the Father running to His lost children? I really enjoy the picture attached to this message. Look at him go - such a dignified older man, draped in the fine robes and garments of his wealth, running as fast as his legs can take him...

    Nope. The problem we have is with those such as yourself and a not so few others who have only a superficial understanding of what we actually believe, and base your prejudices on half-baked lies, false conclusions, and ignorance. Even worse, you are told of all this but rather than reading and...

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

    The United States is the only nation in the world with a Constitution and Bill of Rights that distinctly protects the freedoms of minorities and individuals. One would think that of all people, American Christians would be at the forefront of those willing to defend it. As Benjamin Franklin...

    Life Sucks Sometimes

    This was posted on the FB page by the parent of a child at my school. So… 2024 has sure thrown me a curve ball. Turns out flying off lake mountain on my motorbike and NOT dying in January 2023 was just a practice run. So was having my hair burnt off by a really really bad hairdresser 2 years...

    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...

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

    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 .
