Absolutely… lets talk about what doctrines you are up against… My friend Joao gave some great resources… but both he and I, and like Amanda said, many others on here, love to talk about questions and ways to approach things!!
Brandon - You’re back!!! You’ve not told us how confirmation and the blessing of your marriage went. Was it awesome?
Yes… it was fabulous!! Our profession of faith, confirmation, and blessing of the marriage was done in front of the entire parish. The priest’s homily was largely our conversion story and experiences that we went through while we have been working with him. Since that time we have been going to mass every chance we get… Saturday night, Sunday night, Wed’s night, Friday nights! We can’t get enough time with our Lord!!
How wonderful!! I am so happy for you that it’s unimaginable. God Bless you!! Keep us posted when you have your child this summer and when you have your three children baptized. You are in our prayers. You are a great asset to these forums!
Welcome Rexpi
.I believe they claim that the Pope is the Antichrist. If true, then clearly they both: 1) don’t know what they are talking about, 2) don’t read the Bible,
Do you know why SDA’s say these things? You can’t assume that someone doesn’t read the Bible because they say something you disagree with. That is hardly fair.
hi meek and humble. i think i have a good idea, why they say these things. and no, my info does not come from the net. i actually have had the opportunity to work with seventh day adventist, over the years, and have actually been to their services. and discussed their beliefs, face to face. what they believe is based off of the visions of e.g. white, and a huge misinterpretation of the prophecy of daniel. their beliefs about the investigative judgement, the scape goat, and the cleansing of the sanctuary, and sabbath, are all based on the visions of e.g. white. interesting info has come up about her in the last few years. i for one have some serious doubts, as to her “prophetic gift.” although, she was an excellent writer. Peace
Hi. sorry but I dont agree in saying that we base our beliefs in Ellen G White visions… Its easy to say that but I can tell for sure its not like that. Even some Adventist believe that way… sad but true. But if you really examine Ellen White you’ll find that everything she says goes according to the Bible, even things like smoking, drinking and other topics. Being a prophet doesnt mean she was perfect, and you know she didnt even call helself a prophet.hi meek and humble. i think i have a good idea, why they say these things. and no, my info does not come from the net. i actually have had the opportunity to work with seventh day adventist, over the years, and have actually been to their services. and discussed their beliefs, face to face. what they believe is based off of the visions of e.g. white, and a huge misinterpretation of the prophecy of daniel. their beliefs about the investigative judgement, the scape goat, and the cleansing of the sanctuary, and sabbath, are all based on the visions of e.g. white. interesting info has come up about her in the last few years. i for one have some serious doubts, as to her “prophetic gift.” although, she was an excellent writer.

hello rexpi. you are correct, she never did call herself a prophetess. that is true. but she also never corrected anyone who did. unless im mistaken. but sda teachings on the investigative judgement, the cleansing of the sanctuary, and sabbath keeping are based on her visions. also i have read a good majority of her books. i particulary liked child guidance, and steps to Christ. but look what you just said, OUR MAIN LIGHT COMES FROM THE BIBLE. the Spirit of Prophecy as we call her writings are just a guide. are you not calling her a prophetess here. please clarify. i may be misreading what you meant. Peace
Hi Benedict, let me explain myself better so you dont have any doubt. We do believe she was a prophetess but when asked she said no {Selected Messages} because at that time many where calling themselves prophets but they where a shame for the Glory of God and because what she does includes much more of what the word prophet means.hello rexpi. you are correct, she never did call herself a prophetess. that is true. but she also never corrected anyone who did. unless im mistaken. but sda teachings on the investigative judgement, the cleansing of the sanctuary, and sabbath keeping are based on her visions. also i have read a good majority of her books. i particulary liked child guidance, and steps to Christ. but look what you just said, OUR MAIN LIGHT COMES FROM THE BIBLE. the Spirit of Prophecy as we call her writings are just a guide. are you not calling her a prophetess here. please clarify. i may be misreading what you meant.

hello my friend. i appreciate your candor. but i somewhat take issue with saying that john the baptist or nathan made mistakes in their prophecies. nathan i will get back to you on. i believe when he first talked to david about this, he was not speaking in the spirit of prophecy. john the baptist however, was really a humble person. i believe he knew exactly who he was. as he stated to the Jewish leaders, i am a voice crying out in the wilderness. make straight the paths of the Lord! john the baptist, was “elija” promised in the 0.T. i have no doubt he knew this, but his humility, kept him from admitting it. if ellen g. white made one error in prophecy, then she is a false prophet. not my rule. that is found in the law, and in the book of jerimiah. i can give you chapter and verse if you like. also other than the false prophet ballam, were there any gentile prophets? that may make an interesting thread in itself. Peace
p.s. i love seventh day adventist. you folks are some of the more intelligent, thought provoking protestants out there, and ive yet to see one of yours get nasty here. its been awhile since weve had a thread like this. Peace
