@Berean,

You gave me your doctrine of beliefs and by definition they are “a codification of beliefs or a body of teachings or instructions, taught principles or positions, as the essence of teachings in a belief system.” A belief is what “doctrines” are. You have to “believe” it’s truth, and anyone can believe anything they want and call it truth…[Read more]

@Berean,

To funny! Typical, questions you can’t/won’t answer; if you did, you would discover you have been lied to your entire life but fear keeps you where you are. As a former “christian” I believed some of what you do; the only difference is I started looking into what was being taught and started questioning it. I began verifying what I was…[Read more]

@Berean,

Which “Sunday Keepers” DON’T you consider “under the banner of Satan,” are “apostates,” are “Babylon,” or are the “daughters of Babylon”?

Concerning the “true remnant”:

Rev. 12:17] And the dragon (Satan through the Roman Empire) was wroth with the woman (the faithful church), and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, those who…

@Berean,

I never questioned the importance of following G-d’s commands; what I asked was:

Do you believe “Sunday-keepers” are “under the banner of Satan,” are “apostate,” are “Babylon,” or the “daughters of Babylon”?

Do you believe Sabbath observance is the great separating wall between God’s true remnant people and the deceived, lost world?…[Read more]

@Berean

The author of that article has taken a lot of liberty in his interpretation. The language used in verses 1-13 makes it impossible to be a reference to the Jesus. Everything is about context in which it was written; you cannot parachute into the middle of a thought, pick out a sentence or two and create your own idea of what it means; this…[Read more]

@Berean,

I would recommend looking up and verifying 1everything written below, look at every verse given and prove it wrong or right. If it is right, what will you do with it? Will you accept or reject it.

In the original Hebrew texts, there are no chapter divisions, and Jew and Christian alike agree that chapter 53 is actually a continuation of…[Read more]

@Berean,

“Just because God refused Moses to take the sins of the people upon himself does not mean that God, through His Son, could not.”

Did you miss the other passages given where G-d said the sinner is responsible for what they do? Are you calling G-d a liar? It doesn’t matter what your belief says the Jesus could do; all that matters is what…[Read more]

@Berean,

“The desire of every true Jewish woman was to be the mother of this Messiah. Whenever a baby boy was born, the relatives would gather hoping he might become the Savior.” Wieland

“Every” Jewish woman desired to be the mother of this Messiah!?!? The only Jewish woman, if they even thought about it, would be one who married a man from th…[Read more]

@Berean,

If the last week of the “70 week” prophecy is about the Jesus’ death, please explain why this prophecy isn’t a focus in the NT. The only time the name Daniel is mentioned is in the Jesus’ dialogue when he’s speaking about the destruction of the Temple and specifically states when the disciples see “a desolating abomination” in the “hol…[Read more]

@Berean,

Tell me, would it have hurt to write a simple response to what you believe the 70 week prophecy is? The first 483 years, most agree it’s about the temple being rebuilt; it’s the last seven where doctrines have been created and everyone disagrees…everyone with their own “truth.” How painful would it have been to write the first three a…[Read more]

@Berean,

Where do I begin

If you don’t want to do what I tell you, then do what you want.

First, you don’t demand people to do what you want; you ask, you guide, you teach. It’s more pleasant that way.

But I won’t waste my time trying to convince you about Daniel 9

You wouldn’t be convincing me of anything; I wanted to know what you believe wit…[Read more]

@Berean ,

So put your prejudices aside and go to chapter 9 of the book of Daniel, and you will be surprised to discover that the SDA does not believe in this Futurist heresy.

I have read chapter 9 and there is nothing concerning what the SDA believes. What do you believe of the 70 week prophecy told to Daniel?

What have you studied concerning Isa…[Read more]

@Berean,

It’s a little perplexing how people are unable to answer questions; nothing in your response tells me how or why you believe Revelation is speaking of “papal Rome”; Rome isn’t mentioned by name or even alluded to by John and telling me to read two books isn’t an answer to a question. Besides, I don’t have time to waste on reading alm…[Read more]

@Berean,

How do you know Revelation is speaking of “papal Rome”? Is this a teaching of your religion that you’ve come to believe as truth or do we have evidence that makes your belief truth?

When reading Revelation, chapters 1:1,3 and 22:10 present an major issue for the futurist’s interpretation of the book as the events spoken of in John’s…[Read more]

@Berean,

Show me a particular article that shocks you or that you find unfair.

You’re going to have to be a little more specific; an article on Catholicism, SDA, or something you wrote?

The “Official Statements – April 15, 1997” on “How Seventh-day Adventists View Roman Catholicism” says: “Seventh-day Adventists seek to take a positive ap…[Read more]

@Berean,

So it’s okay for you to bash other faiths; but when it comes to yours, don’t critique it?!?!? Did the truth hit a nerve and open your eyes; did it cause you to stop and ponder the validity of your faith and become your moniker “Berean”; or will you continue to sweep the truth under the carpet, holding fast to a belief system and not G-d…[Read more]

@Berean,

Someone has to say it as you continue to bash the Catholic faith week after week. You’re a Seventh Day Adventist, should we begin pointing out the falsehood and errors of your faith system? One could look at how your religious movement was born out of a failed “prophetic” prediction of the coming of the Jesus (not once, but twice); which…[Read more]

@Berean,

YOU made the claim the Jesus is G-d and I asked for scriptural support. To tell me to find it out myself is deflection, I want to know why you believe the Jesus is G-d and to support it…that conversation thing. The Jesus never claimed to be G-d; yet, you posted the writings of another claiming he is. If the Jesus never said he was G-d…[Read more]

@berean,

What’s wrong, can’t find the passages to support your belief? If this has been proven “long ago”, then it should be simple to confirm and give the passages that support this “Jesus is god” belief.

Begin…

You still haven’t told me what I’ve lied about, why?!?

@berean,

I’m a liar??? What have I lied about? Instead of throwing around libelous statements, back up why you claim I’m a liar. The lack of a rebuttal of me saying the Jesus isn’t G-d further solidifies you can’t defend what you believe.

If the Jesus is G-d produce the passages stating the Jesus is G-d in the flesh. If you are unable to scrip…[Read more]
