SDAs don't believe that worshiping on Sunday automatically sends you to hell. As an SDA, I believe that there have been many great Christian leaders in the past who sincerely worshipped on Sunday, and God accepted them where they were in their journeys. I know I'm not at the end of my journey...

There's nothing wrong with gathering together on Sunday. We can worship God any day of the week. But the Bible only has one day that was "blessed" and "sanctified" (Gen. 2:3) by God at Creation, and reestablished in the Ten Commandments (Ex. 20:11), and spoken about in the Heaven to come...

I believe that some of Jesus' teachings were contextual/circumstantial, like the story of the rich young ruler. God asks us to give our whole hearts to Him, but He may not ask us to sell all our goods like He did with the rich man. Abraham was never condemned for being rich, nor King David...

Yeah, I know what you mean. Still, studies have shown that a more natural, plant-based diet contributes to better quality of life and overall health (Forks Over Knives...), so I'd say it's something to ponder.

I believe that it was Jesus' aim to save Judas, but Judas made his own decision to betray his Lord. I think if Judas had melted under Jesus' love (in washing his feet at the last supper), God would have used other circumstances to lead Jesus to Calvary. He has millions of ways of working...

Personally, I believe that our bodies are the temple of the Holy Ghost (1 Cor. 6:19-20), and that we should honor God in our eating and drinking (1 Cor. 10:31), so we should seek to live as healthfully as possible. In the beginning, God gave us a healthy plant-based diet of fruits, nuts, and...

Do you think God called Judas to betray Jesus, or that He allowed Judas to do it? In the Old Testament, God was said to have "hardened Pharaoh's' heart" (Ex. 7:13), but I believe that God is in the habit of melting hearts, not deliberately hardening them. Sometimes God allows things that He...

I've experienced the same thing when dealing with people. I think I'm so nice, but then suddenly this monster (as you mentioned) comes out of nowhere. I think that's the human condition--we all have a monster of selfishness inside, and sometimes God allows trials to help us see our weaknesses...

I'm praying that God will send His angels to surround you to keep you from despairing, and that He will help you to hold onto His promises in faith. Hold on tight and pray the Scriptures if you can't pray your own prayers (Psalms are good ones to pray.) Don't trust how you feel, but trust in...

After reading your posts, I think that you were correct in thinking that Satan can use impressions/thoughts/feelings as a strategy to drive you away from God. Just because you think or feel something, it doesn't mean that God is speaking it to you. Our hearts are not the primary source of...
