I am a SDA because of the bible. I used to be a Pentecostal and then a Lutheran. The more time I spent in Gods' word the more and more I learned that SDA is the closest to the original bible Christians teaching.
And I learned this:
2 Corinthians 2:17
For we are
not as
many, which corrupt the word of
God: but as of sincerity, but as of
God, in the sight of
God speak we in Christ.
2 Corinthians 3:3
forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written
not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living
God;
not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart.
2 Corinthians 4:2
but have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty,
not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of
God deceitfully; but by
manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every
man’s conscience in the sight of
God.
2 Corinthians 9:7
Every
man according as he purposeth in his heart,
so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for
God loveth a cheerful giver.
Galatians 1:1
Paul, an apostle, (
not of men, neither by
man, but by Jesus Christ, and
God the Father, who raised him from the dead
Galatians 2:6
But of these who seemed to be somewhat, (whatsoever they were, it maketh no matter to me:
God accepteth no
man’s person
for they who seemed
to be somewhat in conference added
nothing to me:
Galatians 6:7
Be
not deceived;
God is
not mocked: for whatsoever a
man soweth, that shall he also reap.
1 Thessalonians 4:8
He therefore that despiseth, despiseth
not man, but
God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.
1 Peter 4:16
Yet if
any man suffer as a Christian, let him
not be ashamed; but let him glorify
God on this behalf.
1 John 3:1
Behold, what
manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of
God: therefore the world knoweth us
not, because it knew him
not.
1 John 4:20
If a
man say, I love
God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth
not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love
God whom he hath
not seen?
And the true Tabernacle is:
Hebrews 8:1
Now
of the things which we have spoken
this is the sum: We have such an high priest, who is set on
the right hand
of the throne
of the Majesty in
the heavens;
Hebrews 8:2
a
minister of the sanctuary,
and
of the true tabernacle, which
the Lord pitched, and not man.
