    What Day Of The Week Is The Sabbath?

    I am a SDA and the way I view it is this: the Jewish Sabbath is Saturday, I don't think there is anyone who will argue that. Jesus was a Jew and thus that is the Sabbath he kept while he was here on this earth. It is the same Sabbath his disciples kept as well. And though people say in the NT it...

    How did you found out?

    I was raised in the church as my parents are both Adventist, as were there parents, so I've always known about it. It just hasn't been until recently that I've really started reaing the Bible more and becoming involved with my church.

    Question....for Adventists

    I think it is a combination of everything you listed. I do believe this denomination possesses alot of truth but I also think we need to be careful about becoming self-righteous about the matter. I believe the reason many do not see it is because many will be deceived. In Matthew 7:13,14...

    Catholic Church no longer swears by truth of the Bible

    I'm sure there were some minor details that may have not been included in the writing on the Bible, but I think to question the Bible's validity, in my mind, questions the very foundation on which Christianity is built.

    Ellen White [Question]

    As Paul says in Romans the law can be summed up in love but what this means is if we truly love God we would obey his commandments. How much sense does it make to say "I truly love you God and that's why I am not obeying your commandment." I'm not sure what logic others may find in this but as...

    What does the Sea Beast represent?

    I'm just curious as to what other Christians believe outside of my own denomination concerning the Beast out of the Sea, mentioned in the book of Revelation. Now I have heard many say they believe it to be the Papacy, the Roman Catholic Church. If you are Catholic, I mean no offense by this, but...

    Questions about writings of Ellen G White

    I am a Seventh-day Adventist, and personally, I don't get too involved with Mrs. White's writings. I admit she was a very godly woman who did possess alot of knowledge and insight from the Holy Spirit, but the fact remains that her writings are not the Word of God. In some cases, counseling...

    Who is a true Christian?

    Personally, I like to stay from "labeling" christians and different christian groups as being the real christians or not. Personally, I think there are real Christians and fake Christians in every single Christian denomination on earth. To me, a real christian is one who truly loves God and...

    number of the beast

    The number of the beast is 666. "This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man's number. His number is 666." Revelation 13:18 (NIV)

    why do we say "bless you" to someone sneezing?

    Well from what I've heard is that a long time ago, people thought that when you sneezed it was your soul leaving the body, which would then leave your body open for demons to come right on in. Thus saying "bless you" was a way for someone to regain their soul and not be possessed by demons...

    Is Hell just?

    Well, first of all I am a Seventh-day Adventist so I don't believe in everlasting torment in Hell. What I mean by this is that I don't believe someone will conciously be experiencing pain and agony in hellfire for the rest of eternity. The Bible does say hell is eternal but if you research this...

    Question for Catholics

    Hey, I am not a Catholic and I have a question regarding the Virgin Mary. Please correct me if I am wrong but is it true that Catholics not only pray to God but to Mary as well? If this is true, then doesn't it break the 1st commandment? "Thou shalt have no other gods before me." By no means...

    I need some help.

    Though I do not know the details of your situation, I assume you see this condition as something negative as well as something perhaps even supernatural since you are here in a Christian forum asking for advice. Though I am not one to jump to pointing fingers at demons (Satan's evil angels) it...
