Concerning why I was writing this, I grew up having some dear friends in the Lord who were Seventh Day Adventist (as they took care of me when my mother was a single mom trying to raise me). And although I'm not familar with all aspects of Seventh Day Adventism, I've been told that what many of them do is similar to what you'd expect to see in the Messianic Jewish movement since (as I was informed) SDA's are biblically kosher and keep the laws in Levicticus regarding clean and unclean meat.

If that is not true, my apologies for saying such. That said, I was curious as to whether or not anyone here has ever heard of a man by the name of Walter Pearson?

He is a Seventh Day Adventists and growing up, I used to listen to him often and thought he was a wonderful man of God. His ministry is connected with a group known as Breath Of Life(), which is one of the most recent Seventh-Day Adventist Christian Broadcast ministries to come into being. Although its main audience is the Black Community, the message is similar to the other broadcast ministries...with it being an independent ministry of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.

I was wondering what others, if they've ever heard of him, felt on his ministry. Do you feel that what he states is an accurate representation of Seventh-Day Adventism? Do you feel he doesn't belong with the camp---or do you feel otherwise? Just trying to make certain as to what to tell others, as I didn't want to give out inaccurate information when it comes to others asking.

Blessings :)

Walter Pearson and I are very good friends. He was the pastor of Berean Church in Atlanta during the 80's. I love his preaching then and now. I do not agree with everthing that he says because he is mainstream. I was going to Maranatha at the time and I produce the first SDA Mass Choir out of Atlanta. We have sung on the show with Smallwood, Shirley Cesar, and other great talents. The last production I did was downtown Atlanta with Walter Pearson but the speaker was Henry Wright. I also know the Blendrights who are releated to Henry Wright also my mother work for Pastor Wright in Ohio.

Happy Sabbath,

Easy G:

Mainstream Adventist do nor believe in change unless it comes down from GC. Like jewelry that really was never in the Bible as Adventist use to preach. Daniel and Joseph both wore necklace and the old patriach wore rings. Isa 3 was referring to the way the ancient used jewelry to worship their deities. People do it today by wearing crosses which is a pagan symbol.

However mainstream preachers will not step out and preach or recant certain false things that SDA uphold which is not Biblical. Examples:

EGW is not a prophet/ss nor did she ever claim that she was, she said she was a messenger. The celebration of Easter, Christmas, Valentine, New Years which are reconized feast days of the Catholic Church and not the Bible. They boast it as well. They say that Yahweh's Feast Days are nailed the cross but the Sabbath is His Feast Day as well. SDA believe that only through our church is the remnant that is not Bible base. The 144,000 are SDA and not the Jews today who are not the Jews of ancient time. These Jews are Indo-European namely Ashkenizies descendants of Japheth and not Shem. The original Jews that were not nobles stayed in Israel and they are dark and you do not see them on the tube, but they are there. I lived there and had a friend who family never left Israel and she was ruddy brown with real curly woolen hair like sheep hair. Finally, they believe that SDA has everything today for salvation of man and that is not so. That is mainstream!

Still love Walter as a friend and a good preacher. He is retire now.

Blessings,
