Ellen Whites True Stance on Sunday observance

Seventh day adventists teach that worshiping God on sunday is the mark of the beast, or at least it will be when a sunday law is enforced; BUT, is that Ellen white's official stance or did she allow for Sunday worship?

@twpstar17

do you believe the mark of the beast is something God puts on you?

@twostar17

tell me which is the true sacrifice, the goats and lambs of the old or the lamb of God, jesus christ? Which one do you have to accept? Which one makes a difference?

If you accept the old and think its the true one, what would happen?

It is quite obvious that the roman catholic church is the beast in revalation, for the simple face that she has the blood of the saints on her hands!

Islam has the blood of the saints on their hands, too. I'll tell you though, nothing in the past will compare to what is coming. We haven't even seen the worst blood shed yet so can't really compare the past to it.

Ahh, hi again Zacmarvalmak:) I do not agree with the catholic church, but as I mentioned on another post to you, you who judgest another condemnest thyself for you yourself do the same thing.

I have never had to ignore anyone very often in the past, and generally I prefer not to, but you don't seem to want to contribute and are really only a wolf, not even a wolf wearing sheeps clothing. You will have to given an account to God for every idle word you speak.

It is very important as to which day we treat as God's true Sabbath, for it's the day He commanded us to keep as holy. Paul confirms my words when he wrote, "Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?" Romans 6:16.

You are either breaking God's sabbath, thus obeying Satan, or you are keeping it, thus are "servants" of God. Obedience is very important in showing who we serve.

[TwoStar17]

But here's the interesting thing when you understand things properly. If you actually replace Saturday as the Sabbath with the Sunday...thus working on Sabbath and resting on Sunday, then you will indeed receive the mark of the beast.

You won't receive the mark of the beast when keeping God's sabbath and working on the Sunday. But all that's different about the work we'd do on Sunday would be that it's the Lord's work, which is acceptable on any day of the week.

[TwoStar17]

Just have to point out, Ellen White didn't say we don't keep the Saturday Sabbath. Basically, all she was saying is that we can use this Sunday law stuff to our advantage, by doing God's work on that day too. She didn't at all say let us replace God's sabbath with Sunday. Technically, we should use whatever spare day we have to spread the gospel etc to people. This does not contradict Ellen White's views on Saturday Sabbath keeping.

@Zacmarvalmak

You really hate the teaching of the cross don't you? In the cross there is life through Jesus.

@joeplacetas1 Do not worry Joe, God is Good, Holy and Just, as is His law. We are saved by grace and freed from sin, sin is the transgression of the law, so we no longer need to live in sin. Stay close to God and Christ and let the Holy Spirit work within your heart and change you and bless you. We have the promise of victory, to overcome just as Christ overcame, by faith and by love. Grace and rightousness meets together in Christ at the cross, they are inseperable. God bless! <3
