"Legalism" means righteousness by works, no? Seventh-day Adventists don't teach that, Bbyrd. They teach that faith without works is dead. :)

Ah, John 10:10

Ah, but then we are left to argue about what is/are the most important part(s), no?

No problem, Friend. :)

Kingdom of the Cults: appendix On p. 551 from the section: Adventist Theology and Classical Orthodoxy, Martin writes, It is unnecessary to document at great length the fact that Seventh-day Adventists adheres tenaciously to the foundational doctrines of Christian theology as these have been...

Sorry, you've mistaken me for someone who doesn't believe in the visible and audible return of Christ.

"Johnny participates in class but does not play well with others."

This is technically not ad-hominem, I guess.

Talk about your ad hominem. All I had to do is reveal my denominational identity and you just couldn't resist, could you? Typical CARM venom.

And out come the knives.

Who said they couldn't be tormented while they are alive? Who said they couldn't? Yeah, if you base that on figurative language contained in a parable designed to teach an object lesson. Which proves what? Just like Sodom and Gomorrah is still burning, right? (Jude 1:7) No, according to...

So I had the wrong word. I should probably be drawn and quartered for being human. I'm not going to look up every slang word I use to avoid one of your highly amusing "You will do well to" remarks. Any more than you're going to be bothered with proper spelling and punctuation. Congratulations...

Awww, did you get persecuted? Yeah, I'm sure Jesus would be fine with "no skin off my back."

Yeah, why would one Christian care about what happens to another? Don't be ridiculous. Who on this board is planning to live wicked lives? Talk about your straw man arguments. Don't you have somewhere else to troll?

Tough talk, but I can't say that I disagree, at least, in principle. I don't think I'd go so far as to say that all who are mistaken on the subject are God-haters, but is disheartening to see how the post-modern church has largely become something resembling a spiritual "Summer Of Love."...

It most certainly can. perish ἀπόληται (apolētai) Verb - Aorist Subjunctive Middle - 3rd Person Singular Strong's Greek 622: From apo and the base of olethros; to destroy fully, literally or figuratively.

The words "everlasting" and "eternal" (when referring to the disposition of the wicked) simply mean that they are final. The scriptural evidence for eternal torment is weak, at best. The language is indeed strong but it is figurative hyperbole. Sodom and Gomorrah suffered eternal fire. Where is...

What is to become of those who are not caught up to heaven with the Lord? "Wait on the Lord, and keep His way, and He shall exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it." Ps. 37:34."The Lord hath a controversy with the nations; He will plead with all flesh; He...

Yes, you've been very successful and cunning about technically not insulting people. So you think.

You have misinterpreted your copy-and-paste blurbs if you conclude that Adventists teach that the final destruction of the wicked occurs at the 2nd advent of Christ. And Adventists do not negate the doctrine of hellfire as you say; they simply teach it properly as taught in Scripture. I never...
