    My perspective of my SDA cousins (Question about baptism)

    I was born, raised, and educated in the SDA church. I left the church a few years ago and now enjoy fellowship in a Non-denominational church. I was baptized at age 12 in the SDA church with a lot of pressure to do so from my parents and teachers. It seemed as though it was expected of every...

    Can the Investigative Judgement doctrine be explained without reference EGW?

    This is the kind of attitude that makes it difficult to stay with this church. Thankfully I do know that everyone in the church is not this arrogant or judgemental. I do appreciate the many other honest helpful posts. Thank you:thumbsup:

    Can the Investigative Judgement doctrine be explained without reference EGW?

    Now a follow up to my original question. If I have an ongoing relationship with Jesus and living the Christian life and daily confessing and asking forgiveness of sin does the Investigative Judgement really make any difference to me? I don't see it as necessary to my salvation.

    Can the Investigative Judgement doctrine be explained without reference EGW?

    I was born and raised SDA. Educated mostly in SDA schools and always took the church teachings as truth. After college I went my own way in the world for a while and came back about 14 years ago. I have had a real up and down relationship with the church since that time. I have heard the...

    Creeping Compromise

    I couldn't agree with you more Tim. I have been going through many struggles of my own for several months now. I found your post to be encouraging. The world has many distractions to offer us that will turn our hearts and minds away from Jesus. I would like to take time now to make a new...

    Movies - to go or not to go ???

    We should use the same standards regardless of the form or location of our entertainment. We need to be equally cautious of content whether it be at the movies, the video store, tv, or the internet. The theater that EGW was refering to was the Vaudeville and Burlesque shows that were common...
