When Adam named his wife, he definitely had Gods permission, because he wouldn’t have done it had it not been given to him to do so. The couple didn’t get escorted out of the Garden of Eden because Adam named his wife. Some things [are] just common sense.

Dear Paul greetings! ( I have been attending SDA church congregations for the last 70 y ) I have learned that we are to do only our homework: the Lord is the one to the convention and refining - he uses his methods and approaches, each case is a case. Remember that song ( Heritage Singers ) Little Flowers.

@@Jorge-xe7qb No I don't remember the Heritage Singers song? I know that Aaron was a compromising yes man. are you another Aaron. My Bible tells me to Cry aloud and spare not, Lift up my voice like a trumpet. Maybe you compromise and suck up to those who would Pastors abuse their congregations and try to disfellowship them because they dare to ask the Pastor to show the proof from the Bible and SOP and they couldn't instead he the Pastor sounded like the Papist questioning Martin Luther screaming at him to recant Or How dare you to question the Pastor. You want to know why God's people are going online and not attending our local churches That abuse is Why? God told me to hold his feet to the fire. These elders/Pastors need to be exposed. That what I had written is called Pastor Abuse. And it is still Pastor abuse. God's method and approach is that He is raising men up with balls! Men that won't be bought or sold. Brave men. Are you a brave man or a sniveling little cowardly mouse who likes to read psychology books on How to win friends and influence people? I trained as a paratrooper in the armed forces that is where they separated the men from the boys. Man up! And quit making excuses for pastor abuses.

Oh my goodness what an answer is this. The same thing the Jews did, their homework and close their eyes to the atrocities happening in their organization, to the point of killing The Messiah. No… Br. Paul does not have to keep bringing souls to this confusion and disobedient church. You better go read your Bible and read how we are supposed to call out and denounced these actions, and be sentinels for God. When we really, really, really love the Lord, these kind of things would hurt us and we would not be able to keep silence, like the sermon, Pastor Boonstra could not keep silence when the professor was teaching not from the Bible or SOP. Being dormant and blinded when we are supposed to be moved by our Love for God and His truth, show exactly where our hearts are.

@@TatyMotaR I gave a reply to @Jorge-xe7qb but it seems somehow to be erased. He basically wanted me to @dance with the wolves@ I have decided not to dance with the wolves nor waste my time trying to correct or teach them Why? Because they are searing their conscience and don't really want to know[leaders in the local church].I feel sorry for the innocent new members but God will guide them into His Truths. I have decided to just do my daily worship and allow God to use me throughout the day. One day I met a Ukraine gal with her mom at a food bank I talked to a Pastor not of our faith and he got them through the line. This Anglican Pastor and I are friends and he is reading "The Book called The Great Controversy".He broke from the bad teachings that lifted up homosexuality and took his whole congregation with him. They want to come out of Babylon but don't know where to go. What a shame our Pastors are missing out on such a harvest of souls. The next week she saw me and her face brightened we chatted and God used me to help her and her mom. She in broken English said, "Paul you are a good man". "How do you know that? She carefully put her hand over her heart pressed it with the other hand and smiled with tears in her eyes. She gave me her email address and wants me to meet her husband. I told her I was a7 Day Adventist She has attended the same Adventist church where I experienced the Pastor abuse. She told me she enjoyed going. I just smiled and told her "I always pray for you and your family". Again she thanked me her face brightened in love she put her hands over her heart and tears came to her eyes. God is still using me. The Pastor who abused me is also Ukaraine I saw his name on her Facebook Profile. It is best to just be one of God's vessels. He has a wonderful plan and will use us even when we think we aren't doing much. Thank you TatyMotar. He has the whole world in His hands and will unite His people to bring about The Loud Cry. Who will cry the louder those giving the Loud Cry to save lost souls or those who are pronounced guilty and are forever lost? And God says "Depart from Me.I never knew you".
