Both Catholicism and Protestantism have their basis in Judaism, and I've been very curious on the subject for quite some time. The one church I went to had some Messianic Jews and introduced me to a Passover seder so that we could all experience one, and I found it fascinating how this tradition...

Brothers and sister, the 2300-year prophesy that started the Seventh-day Adventist world church was the beginning of a greater understanding of the Sabbath, due to the unit used of "evenings and mornings" that takes us back to the first day. He said to me, "It will take 2,300 evenings and...
