@tickman: "Ellen White says we must reach sinless perfection to pass Judgement."
When you confess your sins, your clothed in Christ's righteousness and so you "are" sinless and perfect in God's eyes. Do you wish to wallow in the sins that killed your God?
Ellen White taught that we must be perfect and obey the law in order to inherit eternal life. Jesus then becomes just an example.
"He showed that it is possible for man perfectly to obey the law. Those who accept Christ as their Saviour, becoming partakers of His divine nature, are enabled to follow His example, living in obedience to every precept of the law. Through the merits of Christ, man is to show by his obedience that he could be trusted in heaven, that he would not rebel” EGW
@dconklin58 He imputes His righteousness to us by His grace through faith.
"He who knew no sin, became sin..." We do not become little gods or "partake" of His divine nature... We are redeemed sinners because of Christ. Adventism is just another American religious invention like JWs, Mormonism, Christian Science etc. Just another derivative from anabaptist sectarians. It's a message of uncertainty which leads to despair or spiritual pride. I'm an ex 4th gen. SDA. Pk to boot. I studied out.
@dconklin58 “Though all nations are to pass in judgment before God, yet He will examine the case of each individual with as close and searching scrutiny as if there were not another being upon the earth. Everyone must be tested and found without spot or wrinkle or any such thing” (GC 490). According to Ellen White WITHOUT the benifit of Christ!
@dconklin58 "in 1844--began the work of investigation and blotting out of sins. All who have ever taken upon themselves the name of Christ must pass its searching scrutiny."
EGW This just is not true. Christ forgave our sins on the cross. "Father forgive them"..
God showed that He forgave all our sins when He raised Jesus from the dead for our justification. Adventism does not teach this or agree with orthodox Christian doctrines or creeds. The Investigative Judgment is false.
@tickmann: "God showed that He forgave all our sins "By the HS we sense our need, acknowledge our sinfulness, repent of our transgressions, & exercise faith in Jesus as Lord & Christ, .... This faith which receives salvation ... Through Christ we are justified, adopted as God's sons and daughters, & delivered from the lordship of sin.'
>The Investigative Judgment is false.
Well, you try telling that lie to God. What do you think the Day of Atonement is all about?
@dconklin58 “The blood of Christ, while it was to release the repentant sinner from the condemnation of the law, was not to cancel the sin; it would stand on record in the sanctuary until the final atonement . . . . Then by virtue of the atoning blood of Christ, the sins of all the truly penitent will be blotted from the books of heaven. Thus the sanctuary will be freed, or cleansed, from the record of sin” (PP 357-58).
This is just pure fiction and it is not Christian.
@dconklin58 Wrong. When the Gospel is announced that your sins ARE forgiven because of Christ, it leads those whom God has chosen, to repentance and faith.
St. Paul called it the power of God that leads to salvation. Just hearing the announcement creates the faith to receive and believe wherein one is completly justified.
Baptism delivers the forgiveness of sins as a direct promise of God, right to you.
In the Lord's supper, Christ assures us of our forgiveness by His body and blood.
@tickman: "Confession of 'sins' is meritorius for salvation,"
Again, you aren't reading the Bible! I dsaid nothing about merit. Confession of sin AND repentance from sin is required for you to be saved by the blood of Christ.
@dconklin58 Thank you. So we are saved by our obedience to the law (including worshiping on the 7th day), Belief in the Adventist theory of the Investigative Judgement,
Confession of 'sins' is meritorius for salvation, Ellen White says we must reach sinless perfection to pass Judgement. NO THANKS! This is just not the true Christian faith. It is cultic teaching and not in accord with the reformation. If you hope to be justified by the law, then you are cut off from Christ.
@dconklin58 We finally agree! Unfortunately Ellen White does not. She taught that we ARE saved by our obedience to the law..especially the 4th commanment.
@tickmann; "She taught that we ARE saved by our obedience to the law."
No! She taught righteousness by faith. No one has ever been saved by obedience to the Law. The function of the Law is two-fold: to show to us where we sin and two, that we need a Saviour, who is Jesus Christ.
@dconklin58 The law exposes sins of commission and sins of omission. If you think you're keeping your nose clean by the standards of some prescribed list of conduct, you don't want to see the list of things you should be doing! The problem that sectarian christians have is they don't take sin seriously. They break it down to 'sins' and think they can be overcome by will power. If we could keep the law, why did Christ have to die for us? All we needed was another Moses to give us 50 more laws.
@dconklin58 "Sins that have not been repented of and forsaken will not be pardoned and blotted out of the books of record, but will stand to witness against the sinner in the day of God” (GC 486). How are you doing with your sins? Have you forsaken them? Are you still sinning? According to your own Prophet, your very life is on the line if you don't overcome those pesky little bad habits or dirty thoughts. Bring you much comfort? "There is therefore NO condemnation in Christ Jesus"
@dconklin58 My sins will take me to the grave. I am the thief on the cross that confesses "I am getting what I deserve"..But because of Christ I live in hope and confidence that He will raise me to eternal life on the last day. All my sins that I struggle with now and that overtake me time and again, will not even be mention by Christ on that day. No need to worry about judgement day. It's already happened when God raised Him. The one who will judge us is the one who died for us. Good news!
@tickmann: "All my sins that I struggle with now and that overtake me time and again, will not even be mention by Christ on that day."
Do a Bible study on the word "overcome." Revelation 3:21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
Do a search on the web for "assurance of salvation" "SS quarterly". The SDA church spent an entire quarter studying the very concept of our assurance of Salvation through Jesus Christ.
@tickman: "What if one forgets or is just ignorant of a sin?"
Already answered this one, why the repeat?
The HS brings things to rememberance. Would you judge someone guilty of something that they were ignorant of? No. So, why would you expect God to do that? Is your faith in God so weak that you can't trust Him to deal with you fairly?
@tickman: "Must one believe the Adventist doctrine of the Investigative Judgement in order to be raised to eternal life by Jesus Christ?"
Must one believe what the Bible says in order to be saved? Yes. Must one know each and every single doctrine in the Bible perfectly in order to be saved? No. What if, you had the chance to know but rejected the opportunity? Then you are judged as if you had known because you had the chance to know.
@tickman "This is not what the New Testament teaches. "
Azazel isn't mentioned in the New Testament.
>Have you confessed every single sin?
All the one's I know of, yes. It is the job of the HS to bring every sin to remembrance. Why would you want to hang on to any? Your sins killed Christ. How many do you want to keep?
Listen to Desmond Ford speak on forensic justification.. Adventism is a religion for Pharisees ..It turns Gospel into law and is therefore no Gosple at all.. Doctrines like the Investigative Judgement, Door of Mercy... strip away the atonemnt of Christ for the sinner plain and simple. Jesus did not give Himself on the cross to help us obey Moses. He gave Himself for us because we CAN'T obey Moses. "For I by the law have DIED to the law so that I may live to Christ" St. Paul.
@dconklin58 of course he knows what he's talking about! He's preaching the Gospel of Christ. Grace alone, through faith alone, by Christ alone. The problem is that Seventh Day Adventist theology denies this doctrine on it's face. Adventism is a bald works/righteousness system.
@dconklin58 Is Jewish Sabbath observance neccessary for salvation? Does one need to accept the theory of the Investigative Judgement in order to be saved? May one still enjoy bacon with their eggs or a tender lobster dinner and still be considered justified by grace through faith alone? Must one confess every single sin in order to be expunged? What if one suffers a bad memory and forgets one? Did Jesus bear our sins on the cross or will Satan ultimately bear of our sins as the scape goat?
@dconklin58 You haven't addressed my questions regarding the Investigative Judgment. Must one accept this theory in order to inherit eternal life? What about sabbath keeping? Must one observe the saturday jewish sabbath in order to inherit eternal life? Adventism teaches clearly that Satan bears our sins as Azazel the scape goat. This is not what the New Testament teaches. This teaching is only a 'vision' of Ellen White, It is not supported by the Bible. Have you confessed every single sin?
@dconklin58 OK..Now I think you're dodging and wordsmithing.. Must one worship on the 7th day in order to be saved? Must one believe the Adventist doctrine of the Investigative Judgement in order to be raised to eternal life by Jesus Christ?
These are simple straightforward questions. If you know 'the truth" about how one inherits Heaven, why are you being cagey? Just share the truth. What if one forgets or is just ignorant of a sin? Is there hope of salvation for you if don't confess every one?
@tickmann: "OK..Now I think you're dodging and wordsmithing."
Why tell such a lie?
>Must one worship on the 7th day in order to be saved?
Ok, so you are admitting that there's no such thing as a Jewish Sabbath. Good. The Sabbath is the 4th Commandment. Can one break any of the 10C's and be saved? No. Jesus died to save us FROM our sins, not so that we could continue in them. We are to overcome (nice word study in the NT on that our sins.
@Mrand79 What's your point? You still have not come up with a definition of 'love', or, better put, 'agape'. All you're doing is reciting what the outcome of 'love' should be, but, you still haven't given a definition of what the word means. Further, the 6 of the 10 commandments pertaining to 'love your neighbor', are grossly incomplete regarding all the manifestations of love like: lay down your life, edify in sound doctrine, give to those who are in need, etc. So,what is your point?
This man's sermon in nothing but double speak. To put Ellen White's commentary as an 'amplification' or 'clarification' of the Bible, it the most preposterous, incredulous, & near blasphemous notion to contemplate.
Shame on this man for deluding the public to utter nonsense.
A sinful plagiarist could only amplify the Bible into a message of confusion.
Second great commandment defined by the last 6 commandments of the 10, love our neighbour:
"For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law." Romans 13:9-10
@TroddinSod: "Second great commandment defined by the last 6 commandments of the 10, love our neighbour:"
Why did you ignore the first law? Love God, with all your heart, mind and strength. This is s shown in the first 4 commandments. If you do not do this first then you cannot love your neighbor.
@dconklin58 "Why did you ignore the first law? Love God, with all your heart, mind and strength. This is s shown in the first 4 commandments. If you do not do this first then you cannot love your neighbor."
It's typical that an EGW fan can't read properly or understand the thrust of someone's point. I was merely pointing out the fact that there are many more commandments in the NT that 'amplify' the second great commandment well beyond the last 6 commandments of the 10 did.
@TroddinSod: I'm not a fan of EGW; I quoted from the Bible. I can't read minds and guess what your point was. I simply balanced a one-sided approach that I often see. We all have to repent; every day.
@dconklin58 "We all have to repent; every day." Amen and Amen. Sounds like you're on the right road after all. May He indeed grant us repentance while we cling to the Cross.
@TroddinSod Yeah, what would You know mate... I happen to know Pastor Bohr personally, and He did not become a Biblical Scholar because He talks rubbish. Don't Blame His intellect and Preaching, for Your ignorance... as it is clear you don't have any knowledge...
@dconklin58 "As he noted, you read the Conflict of the Ages series.
>A sinful plagiarist
She wasn't a plagiarist; see the 2008 issue of Plagiary."
Do you have a point to make with this post. It absolutely makes no sense. Ellen White was a plagiarist, plain & simple. Stop fooling yourself and study the Bible instead of wasting your time reading her useless heretical dribble.
@dconklin "There's no evidence that EGW was a plagiarist. See the 2008 issue of Plagiary."Yeah that's what Chrisitan Scientists say about Mary B. Eddy regarding the writings of Hegel. Does a person ever know when they are deceived?
Please tell me, why are SDA's not content with the Bible as the final authority on all matters?From what little I've read of EGW why would anyone spend their time reading her fluffy non substantive alleged phrophecies when they could be spending it reading God's Word?
Oh dear me, you're an angry sort. What confusion did Mr. Bohr teach? Is it confusion to keep the 10 commandments? Is it confusion to love your neighbor as yourself? Is it confusion to honor God? If so, then it's confusion to be a Christian becuase what Jesus taught was to love God, to love your neighbor as yourself, and to follow His commandments. I don't see where any confusion is. I think, perhaps, you just have an agenda because you don't like what the SDA church teaches because you're wicked
@MentorOfMinos Oh dear me, you're a foolish sort. The confusion Bohr teaches, is that he never defined what love means. Yet he said he was going to, but he never did. Following the 10 commandments is an aspect of 'loving' indeed, but it is not a definition. Of course, being brainwash victim of SDA you wouldn't know the difference now would you. Also, it's blaspheme, not to see the finished redemption in Christ's Suffering & Death. You add the law to the Gospel - which is no gospel at all.
@TroddinSod Do not comment so ignorantly on what you dont understand. 1st Corinthians 13 defines love. Rread the bible it will explain what he has said probably clearer. Have a great day.
@unexpected98 You have a great day too!! And while you do, think about why this man never defined the word 'love'. When Jesus quoted the Old Testament, He used the word 'agape'. Does this worshiper of the false teaching of EGW, not see the need to define the words he uses? That's ignorance my friend, and you all the more ignorant in not expecting more out of men who bet paid to study the Scriptures. It's you that needs to read the Bible & toss in the garbage EGW's heresies.
@TroddinSod Maybe I missed something, but does this man state that "God is Love?" What greater definition of love is there in this universe!? None! As for the childish bickering, listen to the message speaking of where Jesus says that we are to love our neighbor as ourselves. We are all old enough to understand what Christ meant in this teaching to the rich young ruler or lawyer as some folks call may call him. Let's show ourselves to be true followers of God and treat each other as He commanded
Thank you very much for posting these clips. So enlighting. Praises be to God and may he richly bless your life for your 'influence.' I just recently converted to SDA from a Sunday observing Christian denomination. In my daily reading and searching for God's truth, I have never been so astounded and humbled that God can open our eyes to secrets in HIS word that Sunday observers cannot see. It is a humbling experience indeed. God bless you and your family.
Thus says the Lord, Your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: "I am the Lord your God, who teaches you to profit, who leads you by the way you should go. (Isaiah 48:17) If thou wilt return, O Israel, saith the LORD, return unto me: and if thou wilt put away thine abominations out of my sight, then shalt thou not remove. Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place (Jer. 4:1, 7). Yah Bless
People remain the same. Now, thousands of years later, Ellen G. White is treated in the same manner as the prophets of the past. Consider the following:
I have found this teaching to be excellent as it surely shows us in a clear way how to handle the objections that seem to abound all over the place towards God's prophet. Excellent teacher and gifted preacher.
in its most fundamental form, spirit that is, it is agape love, "Glory to God in the highest, peace on earth and goodwill to all mankind." Jesus Christ would have gone through everything He did for just one of us, in particular, with reference to this post, to you TrodinSod, so do give a fair hearing to the writings of E G White the only writings which can apply historically to "the faith of Jesus" Rev 14:12, the testimony of Jesus" Rev 12:17 and "Spirit of Prophecy" Rev 19:10 it's a privilege.

When you confess your sins, your clothed in Christ's righteousness and so you "are" sinless and perfect in God's eyes. Do you wish to wallow in the sins that killed your God?

Ellen White taught that we must be perfect and obey the law in order to inherit eternal life. Jesus then becomes just an example.
"He showed that it is possible for man perfectly to obey the law. Those who accept Christ as their Saviour, becoming partakers of His divine nature, are enabled to follow His example, living in obedience to every precept of the law. Through the merits of Christ, man is to show by his obedience that he could be trusted in heaven, that he would not rebel” EGW

@dconklin58 Wrong. When the Gospel is announced that your sins ARE forgiven because of Christ, it leads those whom God has chosen, to repentance and faith.
St. Paul called it the power of God that leads to salvation. Just hearing the announcement creates the faith to receive and believe wherein one is completly justified.
Baptism delivers the forgiveness of sins as a direct promise of God, right to you.
In the Lord's supper, Christ assures us of our forgiveness by His body and blood.

@dconklin58 The law exposes sins of commission and sins of omission. If you think you're keeping your nose clean by the standards of some prescribed list of conduct, you don't want to see the list of things you should be doing! The problem that sectarian christians have is they don't take sin seriously. They break it down to 'sins' and think they can be overcome by will power. If we could keep the law, why did Christ have to die for us? All we needed was another Moses to give us 50 more laws.

Further, the 6 of the 10 commandments pertaining to 'love your neighbor', are grossly incomplete regarding all the manifestations of love like: lay down your life, edify in sound doctrine, give to those who are in need, etc. So,what is your point?
