CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I visited the church because I thought I would hear a better sermon, normally the guy is very biblical, but this was propaganda. but it is what i expect when I attend the SDA church, so i can't complaining to hard.I think we all know the feeling of "trapped in church", when the sermon is either very boring and/or something we think is mistaken. Don't worry next week will be better!

Hey, if a church sermon bothers you, it is always possible to walk out. I am not an Adventist, but this applies to all sermons regardless of denomination. God blessed myself for never having to walk out of a sermon before, but it is always possible for a bad sermon to happen. Don't worry, brother. God is with you, and He understands if one must leave the church building.
I do not know much about the context of this, but the only prophets that existed were back in Biblical times, though, we can all profess the Good News. Also, some Christians may have the ability to make predictions of the future with some margin of error, but not as well as what Daniel, Isaiah, Jeremiah and Ezekiel did.

No I was literally trapped in the church I wanted to walk out but I couldn't. I went to a really small church because the pastor was really good but once I sat down and he started preaching there was no way for me to exit the door there was literally people in my way.Hey, if a church sermon bothers you, it is always possible to walk out.

Wait, what church is so crowded that you can not leave? At most churches I have been to (a few protestant ones, and my Catholic church), the exits are easily reachable, even from the middle pew or seat. What happens if there is an evacuation or fire? Might want to sit closer to the exit, man.

That is true, denominations differ slightly on theology and culture, though we are all one body in Christ.

Adventists Heretic, followed your thread here, but do not understand what bothers you about our faith. I am a Adventist, but not in agreement, with our understanding of closing events, yet think we are correct in our understanding of all the doctrines.
Can you be specific?
