Dear forum:
You are all Sabbath keepers?
OK, it was around 31 AD, and (Jesus told His VIRGIN DENOMINATION, who we ALL agree were Sabbath keepers, I think?)
in verse 6-7 of Matt. 10 we see a MESSAGE to 'Them Alone'! (not the Gentils, but SABBATH KEEPERS) Do you remember me using 1 Peter 4:17 & Lev. 16 14? (forget the last verse, you won't understand that anyway perhaps)
Notice verse 6-7 of Matt. 10.
"These twelve Jesus SENT forth, AND [COMMANDED THEM], saying, GO NOT INTO THE WAY OF THE GENTILS ... But go TO [THE LOST SHEEP] of the house of Israel. (were they LOST BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT SABBATH KEEPER'S?)
And as you go, PREACH, saying, THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS AT HAND."
Was it? Christ said so! FOR WHOM??? [HIS OWN!] 1 Peter 4:17 This chapter is PAST TENSE HISTORY for Adventism also! You can read in verse 23 what Seventh-day Adventism ARE DOING TODAY. Then who is it that SAYS THAT [HE WILL COME] the second time! (He was already there speaking at the time) 70 AD was not these Sabbath keeping ones test! Or the Eze. 9 slaughter.
Was SABBATH KEEPING IMPORTANT, *VERY, BUT NOTICE THIS VERSE OF CHRIST'S, & see if SABBATH KEEPING is the GREATEST IMPORTANCE? ...
And remember that Christ WAS NOT SENDING THE TWELVE TO MAKE NEW CONVERTS FOR THIS DEN OF THOSE JUDGED THE WORSE THAN THE verse in Matt. 10:15, the 'Sodom and Gomorrha' ones!
Here is the verse of Matt. 23:23 for His 'past tense ones', "Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and cummin, AND HAVE OMITTED THE WEIGHTIER MATTERS OF THE LAW, (Sabbath keeping?) [[JUDGEMENT, MERCY, AND FAITH]], THESE OUGHT YE TO HAVE DONE, (YES!) and NOT LEAVE THE OTHERS UNDONE."
Now, if one LOVES Christ as they claim, there is a TOP priority seen here! What is it? It is beyong me, how one could bring 'new born babes' INTO THE Seventh-day Adventist denomination to the filth & trite that is in PRINT & OPEN ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF IT??? (again see Josh. 7:12's last part!) Did the Master not say JUDGEMENT WAS TOP PRIORITY!!! And would not the TOP PRIORITY FOR A BORN AGAIN CHRISTIAN BE, TO HAVE THE MASTER IN HIS DENOMINATION, if 'in' his heart??? But NO, they are out making Matt. 23:15 'proselytes'. Try Rev. 3:9.
Here is a group (SMALL) who were taken to court for being Adventists, yet outside of the TRADMARKED YOKED DENOMINATION. The comment comes from the Editor of the South Pacific Division Record of Adventism. (notice just part of the article)
CHURCH WINS IN VANUATU DECISION
Verdict heads off possible takeover. (remember that these are ALL Sabbath keepers-and remember that Adventism numbers 13,000 000, and this is a possible takeover??)
BY BRUCE MANNERS, Editor, South Pacific Divison Record
The chief justice of Vanuatu ruled, on September 19, in favor of the Seventh-day Adventist Church over a group based at the Pango church in Vanuata. ... In his judgement, the chief justice, Charles d'lmecourt, said,
......
No. 2 The defendants [the Pango group] and any of them are hereby RESTRAINED from using the plainiff's name. Whether it be Seventh-day Adventist Church, SDA Church, OR ANY SIMILAR variation thereof, in perpetuity. ... . (zapped for content)
This is just one of many 'lawsuits'! You know, we LOVE YOU 'm'aster! And these ones too, 'l'ord! We are SABBATH KEEPERS lord! But Rev. 18:4 mean you, not them, huh?
What 'knowledgable' converted SABBATH keeper would want the name of Seventh-day Adventist today, is beyond me? Notice in closing another 'Inspired Truth' from the Master's Word. "And ye SHALL LEAVE YOUR NAME FOR A CURSE UNTO MY CHOOSEN: FOR THE LORD GOD SHALL SLAY THEE, AND CALL HIS SERVANTS BY ANOTHER NAME." Isaiah 65:15
The other NAME is in Rev. 3!
Now read the TIMEFRAME in verse 17 of Isaiah 65----P/N/B/
