You need to revamp your understanding of Adventist beliefs. The millennium doctrine we teach, which you correctly understood in part, and that Ellen White endorsed, includes a post millennial resurrection of all the wicked... Hence the armies gathered around the city.

I am well aware of our church's perspective on Revelation 20, and find it to be in complete harmony with scripture and prophecy. It's one of the reasons I joined the church.

Aaah. You see the owls as a form of occultic brotherhood... Moloch... And ummm, that political elite gathering in the woods in California... Can't remember their name. Lol. I assure you, I am less fraternally inclined with such than I am with snakes. And I've never handled a snake. No, I just...

The fallen nature we are all born comes with a propensity to sin... But doesn't guarantee we sin. We sin because we choose to. Not because our nature, the devil, or God demands it.

In other words, we are sinners because of what we do, not because of what we are. Sin is a state of doing, not a state of being.

And here I thought you were actually searching for understanding and further insight into the topic of resurrection, seeing that you said... But I was wrong. You've already made up your mind and willing to designate others to the trash bin if they dare suggest different. And the above statement...

Or all of the above

People who are all locked into the same error will get along just fine. Not saying reform theology is error, but it's inevitable that birds of a feather flock together and as a result less friction. Yep, there's friction here. And numerous perspectives and opinions and certainly it is...

Yet elsewhere we are told He was good in every sense of the word. So that makes Him...

As Christo pointed out, Jesus spoke to God. That God spoke back, proclaiming loud and clear and Jesus was His Son. And Jesus said God was His Father. Clearly we have two distinct personal entities here. My son is human. How can God's true Son not be God? We all know that before the incarnation...

@GEN2REV Hi. This discussion isn't as simple as your OP suggests. As others have mentioned, there are other issues that need to be harmonized together. We can't settle one issue while others remain in doubt when they're resulting directly affects all other aspects of the discussion. It isn't...

I could have explained all that along the same lines, but I couldn't be bothered. Jim knows all that. That's why he doesn't sacrifice animals. He also knows that the commandments against theft, adultery, murder, idolatry etc, are not abolished, because they point out sin. If people didn't know...

Who do you think I am that you believe I can put the Son anywhere? It was the Father who sent His only begotten Son in His place. To represent the Father and die. It was the Father who gave His Son all things, one of those things being equality in authority (all authority...KJV John 5:26-30 26...

What can I say. My neighborhood is mysteriously devoid of cats, dogs, and rabbits.

The gospel means different things to different people, and all of them may be right. For me it means that God has accomplished to a very real level, what He desired when He spoke to Moses..."let them make me a house (Tabernacle) that I may dwell among them". Calvary has made this possible and...

@Aunty Jane So theos can mean anything you like depending on your preconceived opinions, and so can worship. Chop and change to suit whatever situation you happen to referencing. KJV Philippians 3:3 3 For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus...

And yet you agree with the Jews that Jesus was 'just a man'. So can you prove from scripture that an archangel is a created being, and not simply as described by the word itself... Head... Or Lord... Of the angels? Or as scripture elsewhere names... Lord of hosts. And yes, Jesus was certainly a...

I will stop you right there, and will read no further. I am not claiming to be an advocate of the trinity doctrine that you describe above.

Not an opinion. KJV Romans 8:2-4 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. 3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in...
