@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]

Post 947260 is another example of NOT verifying what they have been told.

There is NOTHING within this Project 2025 that mandates a “sabbath observance” or even hints at such; however, this is one believing what they are told because of the source (AdventMessenger.org). When one’s source for news comes from their religion’s bias what could g…[Read more]

TO ABOLISH THE LAW OF GOD WOULD BE TO ABOLISH THE TRUTH

Are you listening to these words; how many of the “commands of G-d” has the “church” abolished? The irony is deafening! G-d gave 613 “commands” to the nation of Israel and the “christian church” only claims there are ten.

You quote Psa 119:160 “The entirety of Your word is truth”[Read more]

Berean,

The Sabbath…why must this topic be beaten into everyone most Sunday mornings?? As if the faith you belong to is the only one doing what was commissioned by G-d? As if this religion you follow is superior to all others because you observe the sabbath. But, are you really doing what G-d commanded?

The example G-d established at creation…[Read more]

You don’t learn by having faith. You learn by questioning, by challenging, by re-examining everything you’ve ever believed. And yet, all this is a matter of faith – the faith there is a truth to be found. It is a paradox: To truly question, one must truly have faith. (Freeman)

The toughest questions come from those with the strongest faith. Do yo…[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]

@berean,

I can only surmise what you wrote was intended for me with the bold and increased font size; there is nothing prideful nor haughty in what I write.

Answer the questions! When will you or anyone verify what they are told is truth? The Jesus can’t be G-d because he said he wasn’t; yet, you post someone else’s words and believe them…[Read more]

@Berean,

So the Jesus is G-d?!?!? G-d is G-d and there is NO other. Even you said G-d “needed” the Jesus for the forgiveness of sin because HE is to small and unable to forgive; meaning there MUST be a separation of the two. The Jesus even states he is the “son of G-d”, another separation. Further, the Jesus says he doesn’t know the day or hour…[Read more]

@Proclaimer,

When we left off you offered three suggestions to “the end of the age” and what you “believe” could be a possibility. From the sounds of it you aren’t sure of what the “end of the age” is.

In the parable of the wheat and tares the Jesus explicitly states the harvest is at the “end of the age” and the weeds are gathered and burn…[Read more]

The only one who can “blacklist” you is the owner of the website…there isn’t an option for a “participant” to block anyone from posting. If blocking was available, it would have been done to me over a year ago.

Try deleting everything in the posting and repost; refresh the page; last resort, clear your internet cache.

@Proclaimer,

I don’t see the problem you are talking about.

So you didn’t verify anything…gotcha! Keep smashing that “I Believe Button”!

The tares and the wheat and the dividing of them is a process.

EXCEPT what does Matt 13:39 say…“The harvest is the end of the age.” The “end of the age” isn’t a millennia long period; it punctual, like a…[Read more]

@Proclaimer,

You’re arguing that if Jesus’ return truly eradicates all sin and lawlessness, the notion of a later rebellion (e.g., post-millennial reign) contradicts this promise. You suggest that such an idea implies Jesus’ kingdom is imperfect or that his followers could fall into sin again.

What I’m pointing out are the words of the Jesus and h…[Read more]

@Proclaimer,

There are tares and wheat. The tares are the children of the evil one and the wheat are the children of God. During the Millenial Reign, the evil one is restrained, so I guess that demonic temptation is not forthcoming, only one’s own flesh.

At the end, the evil one is released to harvest the tares that may not be obvious during the…

Gene, a typical response of someone who hasn’t a clue why they believe what they believe…the response of avoidance and then accusing me of the very acts you commit (will you ever directly answer my questions??).

You accuse me of having my “own religion”, yet I have told you the path I would most closely identify is the oldest faith on the…[Read more]

@Gene,

DT you said, “Can you explain how your faith/belief system is the right one and has ALL the correct understandings of Paul? What makes your faith so special?”

The difference between my Faith and yours is, I understand what Jesus and the apostle Paul said and meant,

To single me out was not what was asked as I prefaced the question with few…[Read more]

@Gene,

Jesus said……that “ALL”LAW, and the prophets were hinged on these “TWO THINGS”, “love” for God, and “love”for man . SO, Paul was right it seems when he said, “LOVE” FULFILLS “ALL”. the law. That totally agrees with Jesus the Messiah of God.

Except Paul didn’t say that; what he said (from Gal 5:14) “For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping…[Read more]
