Hi everyone! I'm new to the forums... I am a Seventh-day Adventist and have been since November 2004. I am what you would call a Traditional or Historic Adventist, as I firmly reject "New Light" on our doctrines and beliefs.

could you explain what traditional adventist is to me

For the purposes of this forum, traditional SDA members are defined as those who "hold true to the historical interpretation of the official 28 beliefs." Here is a thread that explains further the purposes of the subforums:

Hello new to the forum but not to forums. I've been an SDA for 23 years and I am a Traditional Believer but I do have some unconventional ways of spreading God's wonderful message.

Welcome! We would love to hear more about your unconventional methods.

Is this the appropriate place for that type of discussion?
Or should I post my thoughts and ideas elsewhere.

I would suggest starting a new thread in the main Seventh-day Adventist forum. More people will see it if you start a new topic about it.

drgibson · Jul 31, 2006

Ok done, not what I intended but it is a start.

drgibson · Jul 31, 2006

Things don't move real fast around here do they?

Well off to get some beauty sleep.

I guess that depends on what a "modern format" would include. You might get more discussion on this if you start a new thread in the main SDA forum.

I am new to this forum and I posted yesterday but I don't know where it is at now. I'm not very adept to navigation and it seems there are a lot of doors to choose from here. I found this particular page today and it seems to have some activity, so I will ask my question here if that is ok.

I was an SDA 20 odd years ago and recent found out that there are those in the SDA church that believe that Jesus had an unfallen nature as Adam had before the fall. If there is someone here who holds that belief I would be curious to know what brings them to this conclusion. any EGW or scripture support for this is fine with me.

I'm a newbie here to this site, and I'm a Seventh Day Adventist although I'm also non-denominational. I hope to visit this forum frequently and have the chance to converse like family with you all.

The nature of Christ is an issue that is debated among Adventist theologians. Here are a couple of articles from the Adventist Biblical Research Institute that you might find interesting. The first argues in favor of a fallen nature while the second takes the view of an unfallen nature.

Hey Hannah. Glad you could make it.

Hello!I'm a newbie here,and also a SDA.

About Christ's nature, I believe Hebrews 2:11 left no doubt that He had a fallen nature,exactly like ours.
Hebrews 2:16 also says:"For verily He took not on Him the nature of angels;but He took on Him the seed of Abraham".How could he partake of Abraham's seed if He took on Him the nature of unfallen Adam?
The emphasis here is that he did not take on some exotic,sinless nature such as angels,or holy Adam might have had,but the same nature that Abraham's children possessed.
He was tempted in the same way we are,yet He never once yielded to or entertain sin.He was always totally pure,holy and undefiled.
He was born in the same flesh and nature we have so He could understand better our weaknesses,and be a merciful High Priest to us.

Welcome! Thanks for sharing your thoughts. There is another discussion on the nature of Christ in the main SDA forum, in case you are interested in participating: http://www.christianforums.com/t3334954-the-nature-of-christ.html. More people will probably see your posts there.
