Take Notice of the Great Emphasis of The Truth!

[Gibs]

Oh, the Truth, it is so scarce these last days, deceptions abound and it is called super salesmanship!

First just a little dab from EGW as to what is in scripture of which are so many I will not post them all!

"I want you to understand that Christ said that you shall be brought before kings and rulers to answer for your faith. If it is so that you are to be brought in before kings and rulers you want a clear brain. You want to understand what is truth and practice it. We must prepare for what is coming upon us. We must have the truth in wrought in nerve, in brain, in soul, in body. {SpM 358.3}

Our perceptive facilities must be educated to learn what is truth and what is error, and we must plant our feet upon the platform of eternal truth. This is what God requires of us and of everyone. Respect and help your teachers, and do not worry them, but help them to help you. If you keep where they can see that their efforts are responded to, then they have courage and can help you, and you can all work together as members of Christ's family here below, and then you will become members of Christ's family above. {SpM 358.4}

May the blessing of God rest upon you all. {SpM 358.5}

We must have the truth on every point. And we must hold fast the beginning of our confidence firm unto the end. We are to draw near to God, and then he will draw near to us. The God of heaven gave his Son to redeem us, and we are to become partakers of the divine nature, that we may be vessels unto honor, fit for the Master's use. {SW, March 1, 1904 par. 2}

Now just a few scriptures emphasizing the truth,

2Th 2:12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

1Ti 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

1Ti 2:7 Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, and lie not a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.

2Ti 3:7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

1Jo 1:6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:

1Jo 2:4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.

1Jo 2:21 I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth.

Joh 18:37 Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.

Joh 5:33 Ye sent unto John, and he bare witness unto the truth.

Joh 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

Zec 8:16 These are the things that ye shall do; Speak ye every man the truth to his neighbour; execute the judgment of truth and peace in your gates:

Jer 9:5 And they will deceive every one his neighbour, and will not speak the truth: they have taught their tongue to speak lies, and weary themselves to commit iniquity

Jer 5:3 O LORD, are not thine eyes upon the truth? thou hast stricken them, but they have not grieved; thou hast consumed them, but they have refused to receive correction: they have made their faces harder than a rock; they have refused to return.

Ps 119:142 Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and thy law is the truth.

Pr 23:23 Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding.

Ps 117:2 For his merciful kindness is great toward us: and the truth of the LORD endureth for ever. Praise ye the LORD.

Just a bit of admonition from EGW,

"We have not watched unto prayer as we should have done, but have worked many times in harmony with the enemy instead of vigorously resisting his insinuations. While the truth is being preached, Satan is waiting to drop in the seeds of questioning and of doubt. The truth is not treasured as a precious gem. The mind fastens upon the sentences, and the manner of the speakers does not exactly meet their ideas. There is not perfection in the language, and the defects are much dwelt upon. This is the work of the enemy, and the very truth you need, which God has graciously sent you, finds no entrance into your heart. But the seeds of doubt and criticism spring up in the soul, and Satan obtains a hold upon the mind to counteract the work of the heavenly angels by catching away the precious seeds that have been sown in the heart. {RH, July 19, 1887 par. 8}

1Jo 4:4 ¶ Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

[ClubV12]

How ironic that you speak of truth and quote the prophetess of Gods true, the organized Seventh-day Adventist Church, He raised up in 1844. It has been and will remain His ordained body of believers with the commission to spread the three angels message to a dieing world until the day He returns.

Every wind of doctrine indeed. Oh the irony!

[Gibs]

It was to a point a reform back to His Church He established on Himself as long as it allowed HIM ONLY to be it's HEAD and it's ORGANIZER and it's ORDAINER.

Hasn't been true now for a lot of years. Men took over being it's HEAD, it's ORGAIZER and it's TRAINER and ORDAINER of them taught in their very own teaching schools to preach and weave in new theology teachings, now days held kosher by the people beguiled in her.

NLP and SNLP is now used by all out of the schools and it spread it's lab,1,2,3.

I fought a pastor here on saved in sin until he pulled up and left for another conference.

Mow we have "emerging church" and all the stuff that came in with it.

NO! NO! NO! He must be worshiped in Spirit and in Truth, nothing less is not acceptable.

Joh 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

Zec 6:12 And speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH; and he shall grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of the LORD:

Mt 16:18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; AND THE GATES OF HELL SHALL NOT PREVAIL AGAINST IT.

I have chosen now for many years now to go back and join in that church I see SDAdventism originally had become part of. This one will never fall as those He ordains He sees they have His Spirit of Truth and been through His Schools and do not teach and weave in error, as EGW, John the Baptist and on and on.

He only can be it's HEAD and only He can organize and ordain in it as only God Himself is able to build His Church! Man could never, no matter how hard he would try, build God His Church!

I am a serious Christian, and think about this, EIGHT only were saved of the world out of the flood, what percentage today? Are we better? Are you sure? It will be a "FEW".

Mt 7:14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

1Jo 4:5 They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them.

1Jo 4:6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.

1Jo 4:4 ¶ Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

Everyone to his own, I coerce no one but desire that all dig for the Truth that cannot be moved and invites investigation.

[ClubV12]

God was ready to strike out the entire Israelite people on a couple of occasions. They rebelled over and over. They went deep into idol worship. But He didn't, He stayed with them, loved them, helped them. For centuries.

They remained His chosen people, for centuries to come. Even the heathen nations took centuries for their cup of iniquity to become full. Hundreds of years, generation after generation before God was ready to deal with even the most revolting heathen nations.

And you suggest that in merely a few decades God abandoned the Church He raised up in 1844? Ridiculous!

God is very long suffering, very patient with His people. There is no way he would abandon His chosen people within a single generation. Zero evidence God EVER did that with ANYONE at ANY time, even the heathens! To suggest God has abandoned His Church is a terrible insult to the throne.

[Samie]

God will NEVER EVER abandon His Church. It is the Body of His Son.

The problem is every one of the more than 40,000 Christian groups claims to be His Church to which only their members belong. Aloha, message of reconciliation (2 Cor 5:18, 19). But God, through a Bible-based people upon the earth, will soon dispel this lie of exclusivity through the preaching of the Pure Gospel. Says Sister White:

Quote:

But God will have a people upon the earth to maintain the Bible, and the Bible only, as the standard of all doctrines, and the basis of all reforms. The opinions of learned men, the deductions of science, the creeds or decisions of ecclesiastical councils, as numerous and discordant as are the churches which they represent, the voice of the majority,—not one or all of these should be regarded as evidence for or against any point of religious faith. Before accepting any doctrine or precept, we should demand a plain “Thus saith the Lord” in its support. {GC88 595.1}

In Christ,

Samie

[ClubV12]

She is of course making reference to the Sunday keeping Churches abandoned in 1844 in the same way the Jewish system was abandoned with the stoning of Stephen in this passage from the Great Controversy. That people, that establish the bible, the bible only, as their standard for doctrine and the basis for reform is the Seventh-day Adventist Church.

Such a people cannot be found among the Baptists, the Lutherans or any other of the more than 40,000 Christian churches in the world today. It cannot be found even among those Christian churches that actully DO keep the seventh day, but have not the faith of Jesus. It cannot be found among those individuals and groups of people who left, split off from, apostized from the Seventh-day Adventist Church and started a new Church of a new order. It cannot be found among those who have isolated themselves from that body of believers to whom Ellen White belonged. The organized, structured, visible Church on earth known as Seventh-day Adventists.

To replace the failed reformation of a people, Gods Church, coming out of the Roman power, through His providence He raised up a new group of people to carry forward the reformation. To renew the keeping of the commandments, to preach the distinctive three angels messages for these last days. The Millerites, who in due time, became the Seventh-day Adventist Church. The ONLY Church on earth to this day that keeps the commandments of God and has the faith of Jesus. There is no substitute, there are only imposters.

All though, many imposters and counterfits make that claim, there is no light in them. All of them will eventually join with the daughters of the beast, Christian Sunday keeping Churches and persecute Gods true Church, the Seventh-day Adventist Sabbath keepers.

[Samie]

The Bible says it was on the cross, almost 2 millennia before 1844, that Christ attached us to His Body, which is His Church.

Quote:

NIV Ephesians 2:14-16 14 For he himself is our peace, who has made the two one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility, 15 by abolishing in his flesh the law with its commandments and regulations. His purpose was to create in himself one new man out of the two, thus making peace, 16 and in this one body to reconcile both of them to God through the cross, by which he put to death their hostility.

NKJ Colossians 1:18 And He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things He may have the preeminence.

His Church, established on the cross, can never be superseded by any other after the cross because His Church NEVER stopped existing: the gates of Hades (the realm of death) cannot prevail against it!

Quote:

NKJ Matthew 16:18 "And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.

With this emphatic Bible pronouncements, can any Church organized after the cross have any Biblical basis for the claim to exclusivity? Sadly, many among us SDA's are bold enough to hold on to that claim, in defiance of the Bible which Sister White said is our ONLY guide to heaven:

Quote:

The Bible, and the Bible alone, is to be the rule of our faith. It is a leaf from the tree of life, and by eating it, by receiving it into our minds, we shall grow strong to do the will of God. By our Christlike characters we shall show that we believe the word, that we cleave to the Bible as the only guide to heaven. So shall we be living epistles, known and read of all men, bearing a living testimony to the power of true religion. {RH May 4, 1897, par. 9}

For as long as we are not blotted out from the book of life (Rev 3:5) where our names were written before the foundation of the world (Eph 1:4; Rev 13:8), we are all one in Christ, part of His Church, His Body, members of the Family of God (Eph 2:19). This is the Message of Reconciliation (2 Cor 5:18,19), part of the Pure Gospel which our Savior wants to be proclaimed before He comes again (Matt 24:14).

In Christ,

Samie

[ClubV12]

The Seventh-day Adventist Church is the ONLY Church on this earth that clings to the bible as the only guide to heaven.

Not the Mormons, not the Catholics, not the Methodists, not some home Church detached from Gods visible Church, not some independant ministry off shoot of Seventh-day Adventists.

Only the organized body of believers known as Seventh-day Adventists preach the bible as the guide to heaven.

[Samie]

Scripures say that there are infants in Christ (1 Cor 3:1). When I was an infant in our human family of 9 siblings, I still didn't know the name of our parents. But I am In the family.

Same case in this big Family of God. There are people who might have not yet known Who Christ is. But they are In the Family. Christ has attached them to His Body. To claim that only our single group comprise the Body of our Lord, is an attempt at detaching, albeit futile, those whom Christ has attached to Himself.

In Christ,

Samie

[ClubV12]

Salvation is of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.

Just as Jesus told the woman at the well. At that time HIS Church was still the Jewish Church. Not some off shoot Samaritan religion or some other false religion, the truth could ONLY be found in the Jewish religion. Along with the doctrines of man and the hypocrisy of the leadership, never the less, the Jewish Nation were the chosen people with the correct message of salvation at the time of Jesus.

So it is today, ONLY through the teaching of the Seventh-day Adventist Church can truth be found.

[Samie]

Salvation is of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.

...

[ClubV12]

Salvation is of grace through faith, the very heart of the message of Gods true Church. Salvation is of the Seventh-day Adventist Church indeed!

[Samie]

Salvation is of grace through faith, the very heart of the message of Gods true Church. Salvation is of the Seventh-day Adventist Church indeed!

And because Protestants likewise teach that Salvation is of grace through faith, then someone is also saying Salvation is of the Protestants whom he labels as daughters of the harlot.

[ClubV12]

The daughters of the beast don't keep the commandments or have the faith of Jesus. They, like you Samie, preach a mixture of truth and error. God will not accept partial truth, a mixture of truth, it is Babylon, it is false doctrine. He does not say there is "some" truth in them, He says there is NO truth in them.

[Samie]

What someone calls errors preached by Samie, are actually Bible truths that are against his pet beliefs he himself cannot prove from Scriptures and therefore gets confused. But maybe soon, he'll understand. My Savior is not finished with each of us yet.

[Gibs]

There is God's own Church He Himself established that only does fully worship Him in Spirit and in Truth as He demands,

Here it is and it is a short to the point statement that cannot be wrested,

Mt 16:18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

Joh 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

This is the one and only True Church and has not been prevailed against by the gates of hell!

The Remnant of it will be a small piece of it which before apostasy took the majority to become the Papacy.

Now a remnant is a small piece of the original and folks any can be in it, JUST COME AND WORSHIP HIM IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH!

But it will remain small is for sure, listen,

Mt 7:14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

It is not just myself that is telling you that, will you hear Him!

Those of His Church are standing up and giving forth the straight testimony, yes and the True Gospel,

The Gospel, saved from sinning and not in continuing in it.

Christ teaches, ALL must be overcomers,

Re 2:11 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.

1Jo 4:5 They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them.

1Jo 4:6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.

1Jo 4:4 ¶ Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

[ClubV12]

To those who reject the Seventh-day Adventist Church and have had ample opportunity to know the truth that chosen people preach, you will die in your sins. Your fight is not against the Church, it is against the chosen messengers of God, against His throne.

"Church relationship is not to be lightly canceled; yet when the path of some professed followers of Christ is crossed, or when their voice has not the controlling influence which they think it deserves, they will threaten to leave the church. True, in leaving the church they would themselves be the greatest sufferers; for in withdrawing beyond the pale of its influence, they subject themselves to the full temptations of the world."

Testimonies for the Church, Volume 4 pg 17

"Every believer should be wholehearted in his attachment to the church. Its prosperity should be his first interest, and unless he feels under sacred obligations to make his connection with the church a benefit to it in preference to himself, it can do far better without him." 4T pg 17

[Gibs]

Bro. ClubV12, the Church you had not ought to fight against is His Church, that He alone being God only could build and establish!

Man cannot build God His Church. HE ALONE can and He did that. He didn't give it a name but ONLY "MY CHURCH!" Please read again, it is straight forward!,

Mt 16:18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

His Church does not have a denominational name or it cannot be a corporation of this world as it is not of this world

What His Church is, is the people who will come and ONLY worship Him in Spirit and in Truth and then He is in the midst thereof, and then and only then is Church had, had on Him the Rock, the Chief Cornerstone.

His Church is His people, built on Him and each has become a living stone in the building, His Building that none other can build!

He is working on this building and we are cooperatives, "Ye are the temple of God", scripture states.

1Co 3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?

I am a seventh day Adventist, not of the structure however of the building of men, but of God.

I do believe that in the beginning SDA's were of God's building and EGW I find stands here as she stated to her older Sister, telling her to get in a different Church than she was in? ,NO!

At this time, 1886 she did not see SDA's as a denomination, read,

"God has a church. It is not the great cathedral, neither is it the national establishment, neither is it the various denominations; it is the people who love God and keep His commandments. "Where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them" (Matthew 18:20). Where Christ is even among the humble few, this is Christ's church, for the presence of the High and Holy One who inhabiteth eternity can alone constitute a church. {UL 315.5}

Where two or three are present who love and obey the commandments of God, Jesus there presides, let it be in the desolate place of the earth, in the wilderness, in the city enclosed in prison walls. The glory of God has penetrated the prison walls, flooding with glorious beams of heavenly light the darkest dungeon. His saints may suffer, but their sufferings will, like the apostles of old, spread their faith and win souls to Christ and glorify His holy name. The bitterest opposition expressed by those who hate God's great moral standard of righteousness should not and will not shake the steadfast soul who trusts fully in God. . . . {UL 315.6}

They that will be doers of the word are building securely, and the tempest and storm of persecution will not shake their foundation, because their souls are rooted to the eternal Rock.--Letter 108, Oct. 28, 1886, to her older sister and her husband who had not accepted the Sabbath truth. {UL 315.7}

The Remnant Church will be but a little piece of the ONE AND OLY CHURCH, ever established by GOD which wasn't very big even before the church of Rome broke off into apostasy of a structure of men's making.

Realize, yes the numbers down here at the end in it will be a very few and will be very scattered!

Again, please read,

Mt 7:14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

1Jo 4:5 They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them.

1Jo 4:6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.

1Jo 4:4 ¶ Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

[Dr. Waite]

The organized Seventh day Adventist Church leaders teach that God is a unity of three co-eternal persons.

Where is the plain "Thus saith the Lord" in support of this doctrine?

The organized Seventh day Adventist Church leaders teach that the sonship of Christ is functional and NOT ontological. "At the baptism of Jesus the Father called him "my beloved Son." The sonship of Jesus, however, is not ontological but functional. In the plan of salvation each member of the Trinity has accepted a particular role. It is a role for the purpose of accomplishing a particular goal, not a change in essence or status." The Trinity in Scripture by Gerhard Pfandl, 1999.

Where is the plain "Thus saith the Lord" in support of this doctrine?

[Gibs]

Dr. Waite,

You are straight right on! Scripture in no way upholds no three co-eternal persons.

It does state as this one by Paul however,

Eph 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,

Eph 4:6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

So we should see that Christ in you is also the Father in you, as we are one, Jesus makes it clear,

Joh 10:30 I and my Father are one.

The context of Joh 10:28,29 make it clear it is the numeral 1!

None can pluck them from Jesus's hand no more than the Fathers, he explains, "I and my Father are one!"

Col 1:19 For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell;

Col 2:9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

And so He Jesus is fully God the Father with us in a body of flesh, He was the body prepared,

Heb 10:5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:

1Jo 4:4 ¶ Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

[Dr. Waite]

Salvation is of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.

Not some off shoot Samaritan religion or some other false religion, the truth could ONLY be found in the Jewish religion.

So it is today, ONLY through the teaching of the Seventh-day Adventist Church can truth be found.

Where in the Bible is there a plain "thus saith the Lord" which states that salvation is of the Seventh-day Adventist Church?

"Salvation [is] of the LORD." Jonah 2:9

"Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews." John 4:22

Jesus Christ who lived on this earth without committing sin said: "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." John 14:6

Did Jesus Christ ever worship a god that is a "unity of three co-eternal persons"?

[Gibs]

Isa 43:10 Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.

Isa 43:11 I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour.

1Jo 4:4 ¶ Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

Dr. Waite,

DId you mean to say the other way around what is highlighted in blue? Your statement has you and the SDA church agreeing on function when I think you meant the opposite.

Am I to take it that you believe that the Father the Son and the Holy Ghost only differ in function but not in reality?

NO, I am NOT agreeing with the leaders of the SDA church. Gerhard Pfandl, associate director of the Biblical Research Insitute, is a leader in the SDA church and he teaches that the sonship of Jesus is not ontological, but functional.

I can find NO plain "Thus saith the Lord" in support of this teaching or doctrine. Can you?

[Gibs]

Ga 4:4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,

1Jo 4:9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.

Now add this,

Isa 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

Isa 9:7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.

The Christ Child is definitely the true one and only begotten Son of God made of woman,

Mt 1:20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.

Re 12:5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.

1Jo 4:4 ¶ Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

[ClubV12]

Dr. Waite, just another guy preaching a doctrine different than the chosen messengers of God, the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Throw a stick at any given thread and you will find such a person. False doctrine and every wind of doctrine blows through Club Adventist like a tornado.

Jesus said, "Salvation is of the Jews". Why? Because they WERE the chosen people of His time. The divinely sanctioned bearers of truth to the world. As corrupt, backward and off the mark as they were, they remained at that time, Gods chosen vessel of truth. Who else had the truth at that time? The Sammaritans? The Romans? The Greeks? No, the truth, all though mixed with the ideas of man and made corrupt, could ONLY be found within the Jewish system.

Today that chosen vessel is the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Thus, salvation is of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. It is certainly NOT what Dr. Waite, Gibs, Samie and a host of others preach. Which is a mixture of truth and error.

The exclusive bearers of the truth needed for salvation in these last times are Adventist. Reject the Church and you reject truth. Just as surely as those who rejected Christ when He was on earth, rejected truth and doomed themselves.
