Teresa Beem: A Seventy-day Adventist Who Became Catholic

[Aussiemike]

i listened to this womans reasons for leaving SDA and becoming a RCC. Her reasons are without logic at all. She is one confused woman. 

One reason is because of the SDA hospitals performing abortions. She says we a murderers so she joins the RCC, a church that has murdered more human beings than any other organisation in history. 

She encourages people to read the corrupted early church fathers instead of the bible.

Have 
a read of the reasons they give for leaving SDA and becoming a member of the RCC. 

Her reason number 3. A church that claims to be the sole remnant fosters pride and exclusivity.

Yet the RCC teaches that there is no salvation outside the RCC.

While I haven't read ALL the above posts, I'd just like to make a brief comment.

When one has questions (don't we all have some time to time?) that our enemy has planted into our minds, is it not important to resolve them? If I have questions, I've learned that it is often best to dive into the subject to see what there is to be found.

If a person desires to be a doctor, they attend med school and learn from teachers, textbooks and hands-on study. AND say one desires to be a cardiologist, do they not study the heart, by close examination? 

I am only wondering if it is God the Father that may be leading them on their study (not necessary the woman that started this conversation over) to explore things from within the system and come out stronger in their faith? We should not 'judge' because that is not anyone's job but God. He may have a plan that we don't know the end of. We are to pray for our brothers and sisters. 'Nuff said.

The Investigative Judgment is Fundamental Belief 23 of the SDA church. This judgement is found nowhere in scriptures.

It would seem incongruent for Jesus to come with His rewards before an investigation had been accomplished and the decisions for every person litigated.

17For it is time for judgment to begin with the household of God; and if it begins with us first, what will be the outcome for those who do not obey the gospel of God? 18AND IF IT IS WITH DIFFICULTY THAT THE RIGHTEOUS IS SAVED, WHAT WILL BECOME OF THE GODLESS MAN AND THE SINNER?….1 Peter 4 Emphasis theirs'  LHC

God is Love!  Jesus saves!

I have heard of a number of former Adventists becoming Catholic.  If one carefully compares many of the beliefs and interpretations of Scripture of the most conservative Adventists with Catholic theology, shocking similarities will appear.  

Guess that means Doug Bachelor is about to promote Catholicism?? (the way "some" would apparently have it)

 

I won't be holding my breath for that one --
