Yeah, like I said in a previous post. Christmas is easy to follow, and hard to avoid - so people defend it. And you ever notice that Satan hides behind the children with regards to Christmas, Easter, Halloween, and birthdays? He does it for a reason. The "extremists" would break the children's hearts.

You are so right. Satan does not do anything unless ELOHIM have something like it. The Holy Appointed Set Times were ordained by the FATHER. Then the Bible clearly says they are HIS yet no one wants to see that. Even Paul stated that anyone goes against the teaching of YAHSHUA'S gospel let him even angel be curse. Now Paul kept the Holy Appointed Set Times, they all did. What people just refuse to see that sacrifices was done every day and more on the Sabbath which is one of the Holy Appointed Set Times. It is set every week and the others throughout the year. The sacrifices instructions were writing in a book and it was called the law of Moses. These were the "handwritten ordinances," that were nailed YAHSHUA'S cross. Not the Holy Appointed Set Times they are part of both the Redemption and Salvation plan. Is Paul over YAHWHEH? I think not! If something is ours would someone else say is not?

Satan using the Catholic church has attempted to changed all of the Holy Appointed Set Times. What so crazy about this whole thing is our church was founded on the Holy Appointed Set Times-the Day of Atonement. This day through salvation has been reveal on this day the SAVIOR move from the HOLY to the HOLIEST and Investigated Judgment begin. If you do not understand that our pioneers along with William Miller was learning and they are the one who started the Seventh Month Movement. They kept the day not fully understanding the seriousness of this Holy Convocational day. It is our sabbath according Lev 23 but ELOHIM'S weekly Holy Appointed Set Time. This day is to be celebrated while ours is day of seriousness each confessing, praying, fasting, and repenting that our names will not be blotted out. Instead we take Christmas where everything closes down and they even honor the correct time at sunset call Christmas eve can you believe it. They also honor the eve of Halloween at sunset too! But it is midnight any other time. Wow. I cant get others to see that EGW said that words have been changed in the Bible by the Catholic Church and the Protestant world. These scholars and scribes were attempting to interpret the Bible based on their belief. They change words through Satan to cause confusion.

Then we come down to the birth of YAHSHUA, there isn't a Scripture given us to celebrate HIS birth only HIS death and resurrection. Yet, once again here come Satan deceiving the world but the sad thing is SDA are now caught in this mess. Why would you believe a lie? Ok you say we don't believe in Santa Clause, I say you do if you believe all the decorations. The North pole and the Christmas tree are link together. Here is the Scripture about who Santa Clause really is:

How art thou fallen from Heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into Heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of ELOHIM: I will sit also upon the Mount of the congregation, in the sides of the North: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the MOST HIGH. Isa 14:12-14

Now where does Santa lives but in the north and he has a white beard like the ANCIENT of DAYS! He has a chariot like the movable Throne of ELOHIM. Santa comes down the chimney that has fire, YAHWEH is an EVERLASTING FIRE! He can get children gift around the world in one night after midnight. YAHSHUA is coming around midnight and the FATHER is OMNI PRESENT and so is the HOLY SPIRIT. Decorated in crimson red as the Bible says though you sins be as scarlet. He knows who's naught or nice, the ALMIGHTY ONES know the beginning from the end. Yet our church does not see that the tree is a part of his scheme in the north pole and he looking for his lights on the trees in the houses! He once was the light and wants you to honor him and not ELOHIM! The church do not see that Papacy is both the FATHER and the SON and that has to do with the word trinity meaning one body but split personalities. That is far as I can go with that on this forum because of the rules. However, you can go on my email. I have a outline chart that I took from the SDA Commentary and extended it. Now this I did make to be my own and it shows both Plans for the Holy Appointed Set Times. I can send it to any one who is interested in a pdf file or word office. Finally if we had truly understood the 1888 message we would understand Holy Appointed Set Times, but they were rejected. The two minister were expel and here we are celebrating Christmas even more so thinks to compromising message of Joe Crews.

Need to ask me questions, feel free to ask.

Have a happy Sabbath and be bless with love,

This is definitely not how it is. You can take a quote from Ellen White or any other writer and make it out to say all kinds of things, rather than what the author actually meant. If you are questioing the integrity of the Bible as it is currently written, or if you are saying that Ellen White was questioning the integrity of the Bible, then I would definitely have to disagree with that.

The various "errors" in the Bible that some people allege, do not affect the Bible's inspiration, nor do the alleged errors mean that we can blame Satan for them, otherwise we tell the world that Satan wrote parts of the Bible.

Castaway:

There are numerous of Biblical scholars who agree with me and EGW. Why do you have all of these Bible dictionaries and commentaries just for fun?:doh: I apologize earlier about my grammar and even you stated others did not understand the English very well yourself. It is very important to know what words mean to get an understanding. If you don't you will not be able to communicate and we come to the problems that you have. I provided information not interpretation two totally different meanings. If you would stop trying to always accuse me of things I have not done you would feel better. EGW did say she was shown that words in the Bible were changed. Again you do not have to believe it that is fine but please do not tell me she did not say it!

Happy Sabbath and be bless,

I dont think I am the one with a "problem;" and FYI I feel just fine. I don't need to "feel better." You read way too much between the lines when someone disagrees with you.

My birthday is next week. I'm celebrating it. I want to go to the local taco shop because it has lots of vegetarian options. I also want to watch a DVD at home and have some cake. Yes. I don't feel the need to go all out with birthdays, but we don't have to ignore them.

I celebrate Christmas, I'm just not into Santa Claus and all that. I never believed in him as a kid. I still had a tree, presents, and Christmas dinner. It's fun and I like it that way.

Butterfly:

There is nothing wrong with celebrating your birthday. However celebrating Christmas is a sin period. It is a pagan appointed set time it can come any day of the week. The Catholic Church has always bragged that they can change ELOHIM Laws and Holy Appointed Set Time this is one of them. The tree represent Satan vainness on how he was made with all type of beautiful precious stones. The tree is pagan and has been celebrated from Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Persia, Greece and Rome. Throughout Afrika, Europe and other places in the world. The Bible speaks of the tree and how pagans celebrate just like we do today. Their are some who say the ones who object to the tree we call it a "Christmas Tree," and we do not! Those who celebrate it for Christmas have adopted a heathen custom that has been around for centuries. Now I am hoping that Castaway will not respond but it would not bother me though. He just declare he refuse to come on the forum. He feels that if you don't believe that the SDA Church is so righteous than you are a sinner and hell bound. I love Castaway but not his character and the way he insults people who should be allowed to present their view. No one has to accept any of what we discuss unless they choose too. My prayer is that we all listen and discuss the Bible in decent and in order, than pray about what ever is presented along with studying. Then allow the HOLY SPIRIT to led us to the truth. Jeremiah 10:1-6 Just read it pray about it and allow the HOLY SPIRIT to lead you to what is right ok?

Blessings
