Club Adventist
Welcome with open arms fellow believers who don’t see things the way you do.
And don’t jump all over them every time they do or say something you don’t agree with
– even when it seems that they are strong on opinions but weak in the faith department.
Remember, they have their own history to deal with. Treat them gently. Romans 14.1: The Message

Five years into the Iraq war, General Conference President Jan Paulsen has reaffirmed the Adventist Church’s position on military noncombatancy.

Great article from Pastor Paulsen, and may there be more like it!

Maybe there's hope for us as a denomination yet.

I keep on getting emails from Christian Group that feels called to get rid of all the undocumented guests in the US.

I do not see a command of Jesus to do that.Doing that, under the command of Christ, is in my opinion, a violation of taking the Lord's name in Vain.

If your citizen is on earth, than they should do that, it our citizenship is in heaven we are called to take the Gospel to them.

We all need to join the army where we hold our citizenship.

Just my opinion.
