So, let me begin by saying that I am NOT a Messianic...at least not currently. I was raised as a Seventh-Day Adventist. For those who may be unfamiliar, Adventists observe the Sabbath, follow the Levitical dietary laws (many are vegetarian), often believe that God's law is still relevant today...

I was raised as a Seventh Day Adventist but left that denomination a few years ago as I felt that is was not where I needed to be for my spiritual growth. Since then I feel as though I've been without a home and have been considering checking out a Messianic church (synagogue?). Can anyone help...

I used to play, but haven't in years. The environment isn't as casual as it once was; now you have a lot of people who are heavily focused on the tournament scene, and they play to win.

Wow...it's amazing that the driver was not killed.

I see that topics are still deep and heavy on the SDA forums. Guess that's why I come back here time and time again; always something of interest to read.

As Stormy said, "Bless your young heart." I was exactly where you are now years ago. I woke up one day and had to ask myself why do I believe in the things that I do? I started asking questions, and didn't always like the answers that I received. I grew up as an Adventist, it was all that I...

Man...just ain't no pleasin' some folk.

I can deal with almost everything that the Adventist church believes in except the way that SOME of them blindly follow select works of EGW without question. I don't mind Ellen, I just think that other people have elevated her to an undeserved status. But, I like the health message in the SDA...

*sigh* The 80's were so great. I miss them. :(

Thanks for the welcome Annie. I just wanted to start a thread for the purpose of comparison, but it would seem that I unknowingly contributed in starting another heated debate. At least these two are keeping civil...for the most part.

1. Don Johnson, Sigourney Weaver, Bruce Willis, Goldie Hawn, Kathleen Turner, Eddie Murphy, The Brat Pack, etc... 2. Culture Club, A-ha, Toto, Terence Trent D'Arby, A Flock of Seagulls, Michael McDonald, etc... 3. The Breakfast Club, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, The Last Starfighter, Tron, The...

So, you think that her writings have too much, how should I say...liberal interpretation?

Cool link. I like Doug.

I'll have to go take a look see then.

I don't think he was lumping them all together. Perhaps he was just pointing out what is viewed, by many, to be a trend within the denomination...at least partly.

Oops. Double post.
