That video is an hour long! There's no possible way I can watch something that long on YouTube. I have the attention span of sea monkey!
But yes, she is a false prophet.
But yes, she is a false prophet.
lol yea im the same way. unless its something I actually want to watch.
I also won't read long posts ether.
Yes, but it was a shadow of the substance that is Christ. Col 2:17
I believe once a person comes to Christ they enter into the meaning behind the sabbath, that is to enter into Christ rest. Hewbrews 4
Claiming you have to worship on Saturday to be saved is judging wrongfully. Romans 14
Yes, I do. No scripture says don't do it, There is scripture telling us to do it. We are not to judge people based on the day they worship.
Sorry about going away from Ellen G White.
I certainly wouldn't take what she wrote as scripture. I like St Augustine, but I don't take him as scripture. I think she got carried away with herself at times, and got some things wrong. I can't see a reason to throw out every single thing anyone says based on "false prophet" or some such. The bible is gospel, nothing else is. We see darkly as through a glass, God doesn't. I think we are to label what is false in a teaching, not label an entire teaching false.
I take that back! The Mormons base an entire teaching on some plates they found and say God did it. I think that statement is false, so what the plates say is false. That is different. This is what Ellen thinks the bible says, and I think she is wrong in some of her conclusions.
Absolutely not! I believe that those/us who put their trust in Christ enter in His rest (Hebrews 4), which means they/we keep the sabbath everyday of their/our lives. So being in Christ and the Christ is Lord over the Sabbath, I keep the 4th commandment. Therefore what Christ did and what I can not do is imputed to me by faith alone, but not to take advantage of that grace by engaging in willful and perpetual sin.
I don't condemn for your view on the sabbath, if you wish to worship on that day fine. But don't you think the Lord wants our obedience and worship everyday?
I think God asks us to take one day in every seven to rest. God tells us that is the way it is. God also wants us to be obedient and He wants our worship always. One fact does not cancel out the other fact. In fact they work together. If we are obedient we will listen to both facts.
The Sabbath isn't just about rest. It's a commandment to keep the 7th day holy. If Hebrews 4 is really saying that God's holy day no longer has to be observed, then why did Paul only write to the Hebrews? He should have made it crystal clear, but he didn't. In fact, even the Old Testament says that the Sabbath day will still be kept in the new heavens and new earth.
I seems to me that once we know the substance of Christ it is a progression in our walk with God. I hear so often that by knowing and being part of the substance it cancels doing. I think it enhances doing. It cancels out our doing as a mere empty ritual, as doing without the substance. But, for instance, I don't think we can ignore that we are to take a day a week to rest based on that Christ has come, we have the Holy Spirit that gives us the meaning. We live in a physical world, our substance is expressed in our doing. Cancel the doing and you cancel the substance, it is the way we are made.
One way of saying it is that faith without works is dead. Again, that fact lives side by side with the fact that we are not saved by works. Both are true. Understanding God is a matter of understanding how they fit together.

Could you please provide a single iota of evidence to show that SDA's are cultists? They seem more passionate about the Bible than most average Christians.
