Nevermind.... I've had enough of this back and forth nonsense. I have better things to do with my time than to argue with stubbornly rude people.

Bob, saying Sunday worship will be the mark of the beast is essentially the same thing as saying it is the mark of the beast. I don't understand why you can't see the logic of that. In other words, it is the mark of the beast according to the SDA church, but hasn't gone into effect as such yet...

Bob, you are an SDA. SDAs believe the mark of the beast is Sunday worship. Are you saying you don't believe that? As for me, I don't have a view on the subject. I am OK admitting I don't know. You know what's more important to me? Making sure my life is right with God. If my life is right with...

It's all speculation at this time. Even your own view should be regarded as speculative until proven true. You have no proof that worshiping God on Sunday is or will be the mark of the beast. The writings of Ellen White and those who put their trust in her words tell you that. Not the Bible.

But you have already determined in your mind what is "true" regarding the subject matter. You aren't here merely to ask questions, but to lure people into debate in hopes to argue your way into their hearts and make them see things the way you and the SDA church interpret them. Your intentions...

It appears you implied it in a response you gave to another comment here.

Where in Daniel 7 does it say the SDA church is the remnant?

Then why do you argue with people if you are only interested in hearing their view? It seems you are not being sincere.

Well, then, what is it? Show us from the Bible (not Ellen White's writings) what the mark of the beast is. If you can't do that, then keep silent! You have no business telling people they are wrong about something when you don't know for certain you got it right.

That's a good question! It all depends on what "that theology" is.

What can be known about God? What He has already revealed. Read the Bible...

I agree. We don't know what it is at this time. When the time comes, God will let us know it. The reason many if not most SDAs are not willing to look at it in this way is because of Ellen White's writings on the subject, which they regard as inspired as Scripture.

What's your point in bringing this up with me?

I already explained what I meant. Unfortunately, I can't help you get the point you missed. So this is where the discussion ends for us.

I am not asking for moral compromise, but a genuine openness to receive correction. I use the word "genuine" because in many cases where I have heard people say they are open to correction if it can be shown they are in error, when the time came to test them on that, they didn't change their...
