    This selection from Exodus describes the temple perfume and contains a prohibition for anyone to make it or similar perfumes. do you think that prohibition still stands today?

    Beware of AI engaging you in the forum.

    I am very wary of using AI, however, ChatGPT has informed me that they are very aware of Sister Ellens writings and they seem to answer questions very correctly, however, for finer nuances of SDA belief I am always urged to check with clergy and others from within my faith community. I will say...

    Whats a member to do?

    In my local church, the pastor seems to treat the church as his private project. One room is filled with junk. Other rooms are dirty, and there is an unacceptable odor to the church. Much work needs to be done to make the church presentable. I suspect insurance forms are not being filled out...

    Newly revealed evidence VINDICATES SDA sabbath teachings!

    Sure, Jesus mentioned the two commandments, but they covered all of the ten. We cannot hurriedly think we are paying good attention to the commandments by trying to abbreviate them down to two and think we understand them. God also said he does not change. To attempt to change the commandments...

    Is it stealing to keep something given to me by the owner, that I didn't buy?

    I have had similar happen to me where I received double of what I paid for. When I notified them they said, "Keep it". I believe that you are obligated to try and correct the error and give them the decision regarding what to do about it. Apparently, it is often more trouble to return it than...

    When you're obese how long does it take to start getting health problems?

    Without going into a lot of detail, your weight is already getting to you. To be on blood pressure meds at 33 is significant. The doctor is possibly pessimistic, but to hear you might live another 20 years when 33 should be significant enough to wake you up. The doctors words are something I...

    Need a Christian woman to talk to

    I am not justifying that behavior, just pointing out the reality of the the internet and any forum. Be careful what private information you share in any forum. And yes, someone doing that is doing wrong by being untruthful. The same could be said for a female invading the men's forums.

    Need a Christian woman to talk to

    I would not bet any money on that! How hard is it to create a new profile, click female, and ask for access to the forum. I would not count on it being safe if that concerns you. And, no, I do not invade the women's forum!

    Microchipping pets

    That's funny right there! People are afraid of microchipping because it is thought to be the mark of the beast. Have you never considered that it might be an invisible mark that only God can see? Perhaps it is His way of knowing who follows Him and who doesn't. Perhaps it is only a mark that...

    What pets do you have and what are their names?

    A 10 year old Tuxedo tomcat who came from rescue and I have had him for 2 years. He was pretty wild when I got him but has settled down into a very nice cat.

    Don't know what to think: Wife believes wedding ring is just materialistic...

    There are some Christian groups wherein the wearing of marriage rings was historically unacceptable but now accepted for those who insist on wearing a ring. My wife and I do not wear wedding rings and I have no reason to ever think she is not wearing it to appear "available". Too insist on a...

    Husband Friends with Ex

    She would not exactly be "in the marriage." The boy has a relationship with her and it should not be so casually dismissed. I find it amazing how easily people will diss the feelings and relationships of children. If someone is going to get upset about the situation, it should have been done...

    Stay quiet or say something ...

    Thank you for the Chambers quote. I found this verse of which Bible translation it is I can't find, "Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, and for the rights of all who are vulnerable." (Proverbs 31:8) I have prayed much about this and it seems the only answer I get so far is...

    Stay quiet or say something ...

    I am saying that the elderly gentleman was traded for silence on the part of the blackmailer to not release defamatory information which was a mix of true and false information. Those getting possession of the man are the ones who put him in a nursing home. He was happy where he was and well...

    Stay quiet or say something ...

    I have been to the police, judges, boards of professional licensing, and no one cares about an old man. He was removed to another state and the judge didn't think we could go after him. I do believe the victim in this may be too fragile to be removed and brought back home. I am interested at...

    Stay quiet or say something ...

    To make this situation a little more clearer as I don't want to identify the guilty ones ... it involves the trading of an elderly man in exchange for keeping defamatory information secret. It was a very hostile family situation. The man was fully aware of what was happening to him, but disabled...

    Sexual Harrassment Discussion

    As usual, stereotypical thoughts and comments are made. Men get sexually harassed also. You can start with the story of Joseph and Potiphar's wife and find many incidences occurring today. Just look around, it is in media frequently.

    Stay quiet or say something ...

    A terrible thing happened in my family and involved two members who are pastors. I feel that something should be done, but others say leave it alone as I have done all I could. How far do you go with things that occurred in front of you and were evil?

    GOD'S LAW AND THE SABBATH AND FOLLOWING MAN MADE TRADTIONS?

    I like the video very much, but for clarity ... it is done with an actor using actual words published by members of the RC church.
