been through all four steps here... great fodder for personal growth.

Yes - Jesus was judged by His Father as "perfect" and His sacrifice "perfect". He was judged worthy to become High Priest for Israel. But dominion is not given to Him until the last day of this age. That is when He will be crowned as King of Kings, and will begin to "reign", and to execute His judgment. The Spring TYPES represented the beginning of Christ's ministry for us in the Heavenly Sanctuary, and the Fall TYPEs represent the last events in that ministry - for this age. Jesus was appointed a priest "forever". That means Jesus will never stop being High Priest of Israel. He will be a priest LIKE Melchizedek - who was both king and priest on the earth.

It is my understanding (lensing the OP topic thru A Relational Non Condemning JESUS) That the sealing has more to do with our hearts being won over 100% in His Love for ourselves and others. We will be safe to take to heaven and showcased to the universe! The Mystery of GOD! CHRIST IN YOU! Colossians 1:27

.. I have been telling my sister for years that when someone doesn't like you ..it seems like to them you can't do or say anything right. When you get inside of Gods love for you ..You will ..WILL.. love others and therefore there will be no evil surmisings of others but thinking better of their actions and words. The Judging will automatically stop! Amazing!

It is actually affordable when the graduate signs up with the GC after graduation. The GC has an agreement with LLU that if the medical/dental graduate signs up with the GC as a medical missionary for world service (at least 7-10 years of service) - the GC will pay for the school fees (loan) incurred at LLU. Many Adventist young people have benefitted from the program and many are still in the field serving the church and humanity.

In the sense that EGW did indeed speak for the Lord, I don't believe she did so 100% of the time. I would opine that Paul and Peter were also prophets. They were convinced that Jesus would return "soon" as in within their lifetimes. He didn't. Does that invalidate the fact that they spoke for the Lord? EGW was among those who were committed that Jesus' second coming would be in 1844. He didn't. Was her "prophecy" in error or was she not yet commissioned as a prophet? She prophesied that the RCC and papacy would be the end-time beast/antichrist in an era where it was fashionable to persecute the RCC. Here we are, over 100 years later; and I don't see bands of marauding Catholics running around the world beheading people and causing general chaos around the planet. There is another religion that is already doing that quite effectively. I do believe the close of probation is a real deal. However, I believe it occurs immediately before the 7 bowls of God's wrath fall on the earth. I also believe probation closes because all of the "true believers" will have been translated off of the planet so they don't have to endure God's end-time wrath. Everyone who remains on the planet (at least in the Middle East and surrounding areas) will have chosen to reject Yahweh and worship the beast/antichrist; so in a sense, they will have closed their own probation. "I believe" does not imply that I think those of you who have a different opinion are wrong - you just believe differently than I do about the events leading up to the second coming (like the timing of the close of probation). I also believe that prophecy is intentionally sufficiently vague that none of us really "know what's gonna happen until it starts to happen. It was so vague in the Old Testament that the spiritual powers of the time were unaware that if Jesus died and was resurrected, they would be doomed; and the victory of grace and mercy over evil, sin, and death would be certain. (See 1 Cor. 2:8). Eschatology could very well be equally as vague.

This is Memorial Day. We should remember the men and women who have served our country placing their lives on the line for what we have here in our country.

New books and OpEd articles are being published on the topic of 'The Case for Impeachment' of Donald Trump. His actions mirror those of some of the previously impeached presidents.

I agree with the following quote:
