Mark Finley talks about David Gates video "Even at the Door"

[@Rajeev_Ralph327]

Recently, Pastor David Gates was involved in a plane crash, which could had been fatal. I think Pastor Mark Finley should had at least mentioned that we are happy to know that our brother is doing well. Sometimes a little concern is more important than trying to make theology right!

[@paulj6720]

The same thought went through my mind. But no mention that he is miraculously still alive, but just a video that attacks his message. I discern which spirit is behind this video, and it is NOT the SPIRIT OF GOD!

[@tommymogaka]

Rajeev Larka - You are right. I like both pastors, they are both on the same team but at least Pr. Finley should have even visited Pr. Gates as a brotherly gesture and then if they couldn't agree he would then be free to go public.

Even William Miller was wrong about the event he predicted would take place in 1844 yet by his preaching and proclamations the people were awakened to the imminent coming of Jesus and the need to BE READY before the door of salvation closes. Likewise, David Gate's sermon was to WAKE THE CHURCH UP and much less about date setting. I found David Gates sermon to be hugely encouraging and I am even more determined to live for God in these last days before my name passes through the Heavenly courts. Blessings.

Amen! Soon and verry soon Jesus is coming again

[@earlysda]

God led in the message of William Miller. That was his will then. Then he told us thru Ellen White to NEVER have a time excitement again. So that's how we can know for sure that Br. Gates is not led by God in this issue.

[@michellemauigoa4206]

@@earlysda Pr Gates stated it was his own opinion. He never claimed to be a prophet but instead was stating what he personally believed would take place early next year. It was a wake up call to be ready as these events are very near. How can the Conference speak out so quickly against Davd Gates but refuse to do a public video and address all the apostacy taking place in the Church at present. I would rather they leave David Gates to his own opinions and prefer to hear why the Conference is misappropriating our tithe money, why they are ordaining Lesbian ministers and elders in our church, the unbiblical women's ordination debate and the Great Hope debacle to name a few. David Gates refused to sign one of the points in the Church's Working Policy, which is why the Church is speaking out against him. Yet David Gates is on the frontline doing volunteer missionary work and trying to wake his beloved Church up. I want to be one of the wise virgins with oil in their lamp while waiting for Jesus return. (Furthermore, Pr Jeremiah Davis has been preaching for YEARS that there is only a few short months until the Sunday law is enforced, yet he has not been openly rebuked for preaching this because Pr Jeremiah Davis is still in the Conference, yet David Gates is not). However I do respect your opinion 🤗 Blessings.

I remember when I was a teenager that my youth group leader in my church was ran out of the church because he was sharing the book "Faith and Works" by Ellen G White which brought righteousness by faith to the surface, and the conservative members didn't appreciate the attack on their 10 commandments. Afraid of "new age religion." How they treated my youth group leader led me to hate the church and I left during a time when I had a lot of zeal but was young and knew nothing. I take full responsibility for my lack of commitment to God and for the time I spent separated from God, but it is a shame that so much division within the church is throwing many mixed messages to our youth and newer members. If only we could allow God to shake without our selfish motives causing unnecessary and painful aftershocks. I hope and pray we can all focus more on reflecting God’s character to the rest of the world, having no expectations from humans or demons other than what has been foretold by God, and having all faith in God that He will do as He promised and is in control of His church and directing it's leaders and trying the leaders as He does any other human. We can do nothing to change a person's heart. Only God can change a person's heart. Even our own. Forgive me for rambling. I just grieve over the cosmic conflict in every battlefield. Especially within the church. But I know that Satan works harder there than any other place. I am just a spiritual baby. I am as a child in my knowledge and wisdom and I have no words to say for encouragement or advice. But I do want to hold on to Jesus tighter than ever as I see and feel the very ground shaking beneath my feet. I want to pray more fervently for our church and my brothers and sisters.

Yea, maybe make a correction for violating the flocks freedom of conscience. He was correct. Even the prediction Mark is critisizing. Covid started in that year.

But this is not saying that the decisions of a General Conference composed of an assembly of duly appointed, representative men from all parts of the field should not be respected. God has ordained that the representatives of His church from all parts of the earth, when assembled in a General Conference, shall have authority. The error that some are in danger of committing is in giving to the mind and judgment of one man, or of a small group of men, the full measure of authority and influence that God has vested in His church in the judgment and voice of the General Conference assembled to plan for the prosperity and advancement of His work." 9T 260:2

Gates is one who has done a lot in the mission field. How can he be hateful to SDA’s when he wants to wake his fellow SDAs to be ready for the 2nd coming? Think. We don’t hear much about the second coming and end times for fear of scaring the new believers. The truth may be painful or offensive to some, but how is one’s salvation when a sermon is watered down so not to offend?

Mark Finley is speaking without knowledge. He has a high lofty opGod's Of himself. He works as the assistant to the head administrator of the world church and does his bidding not God's.

[@mikefrommaryland9652]

I have great respect for Mark Finley. His name is well known in the Seventh Day Adventist Church and some people might say that he is one of the great speakers of our time. His message in the video covers the historical views of both Daniel and Revelation. However, the progressive focus of Daniel 8-12 is on the END TIMES. Mark, I guess my really important question is, what is the impact factor of your message for those who are living at the VERY end of time? Are the Ellen White quotes that you used consistent with ALL of her writings concerning TIME? Failure or insufficiency to look at ALL of her writings is a typical sign of bad research. Ellen White made it clear that the time prophecies in Daniel 12 were a part of the end time messages that extended to the second coming. She also said they were a part of the third Angels message. Mark, your research says that you have an axe to grind with David Gates, nothing more. Any attempt to inject emotion into a Biblical argument is usually a sign that the person making the argument has a motive other than finding out the truth. Mark, I disagree with your motives, there are many different people who have videos on KZbin that are talking about end time events, surely you don't agree with all of them but I've never heard you speak out against them. Emotion should not be your motive in Biblical research. It is also important to note, when there is a disagreement like the one presented by Mark, there is usually a political reason for the dispute. You be the judge. David Gates, wherever you are, probably feeding the poor in some far off land, stay strong!

God has told us thru Ellen White to NOT get up a time excitement. When it dies down, then it will be much harder to bring people up to a preparation when the real event comes. And speaking of the younger generation - they will learn of the failed time predictions of their "leaders", and probably reject all the truth of the Three Angels' Messages. So it is best to not preach error in the first place, wouldn't you agree?

We say Jesus will come soon but the missions are all in disarray and the brotherhood is gone.

@Hubris the advent movement started because of the numbers that predicted the Lord had entered into the most holy place. Many fell away and left their Faith. E.G White continued with the study. There will be a great shaking and many shall be deceived by their Faith in fixed faiths of tradition and caution. Pastor Gates isn't divine but he does have his faith. Do you really believe the scriptures then it clears states that even your sons and daughters will have visions. If no one is left even the stones shall declare the 3rd Angel's msg. Th at all the world shall hear. Why are you being sceptical? If there is a doubt then take to the Lord in prayer and fasting. He will not let you down if you but ask Him. It's useless to sit hours debating whether to be or not. Do what you do in faith and trust with prayers and fasting. Then no one will be deceived. There is no shortcut to heaven. Broadway is the road that leads to hell. Narrow and hard is the path of saints. If you doubt try to find the truth with God. It will be too late to wait for the Sunday law proclamation. The door to reach our Lord closed. Like the foolish virgins we would be left behind. Even the elect could be deceived. Why wait for the law. The signs are all around you. The knowledge has increased by far leaps and bounds, there is war and rumers of war everywhere. The ppl are being herded into mass groups. There is violence debauchery and mockery of the Lord. The storms are growing more unpredictable and climate change is a reality. The divide between the rich and poor is at its highest. Humanitarian emotions are dying. Ppl are eating living for pleasure without bothering about anyone else.

Pastor Finley, Pastor Gates understands that. Historically SDA's see the 1260 days or 42 months of revelation "anchored" in the dark ages. However he, Gates, is just sharing what could be a possibility of viewing the days of Daniel 12 as "literal" days (Yom - Hebrew word use). And please take under consideration the sequence of the days; 1st the 1260, 2nd the 1290, last the 1335. That means that the parting date for all these dates start from the beginning of the 1260! In other words, the 1260 days begins the chain reactions of expected events to occur! We SDA's place them on or before 1844. The 1260 days began on 538, the 1335 began on 509, and the 1290 on 554. This set up contradicts Daniel 12. And we did this because if we expected Christ after 1844, Daniel 12 had to b fulfilled before or on by 1844. That's why Gates's state's that Daniel 12 should b seeing as literal "days" n as well as prophetic. The issue is that (and I understand no one wants to b seeing as a Hal Linsey or Harold Camping), we SDA's are standing in the side walk for further instructions (as it relates to prophetic interpretation) cause we don't know what's next! We r in limbo, because no sign of HOW the "siege of the church" (in modern times - Luke 21; Matt. 24)) would take place.

[@1844-Telltheworld]

@@jacobvero9403 What did Mark Finley do? First, if someone does not see the climate change agenda is not the Sunday Law, it is plain blindness. Second, Mark Finley talked about when speaking about the word, it is not to be based on feelings. That is true in certain sense if what the person is saying cannot be sustained by the word of God. The SDA church began with insight ka sense of feeling). On October 23, 1844, when Edson Hiram was walking through the cornfield to visit the other brethren, it was insight tha came ove him that Daniel 8:14 was speaking of the heavenly sanctuary. By praying and studying the Bible, the pioneers arrived to the conclusion that the insight was accurate. By reading the Bible, the Spirit of Propbecy and analyzing the measures that are being taken to combat climate change, one can see to the naked eye, this will bring the Sunday Law. People can see that there is a day to stop doing works that revolves around climate change. It is Sunday. Third, Pst. Finley talked about he believed God was still working through the church. That is true, He still does. But what is or who is the church? The Sanhedrin is not the church. The church is the body of Christ who is walking according to His will. Jesus left the Sanhedrin and called His disciples to spread the Gospel. The Sanhedrin was too blind to see the sign of time. I am not calling the top leaders, the Sanhedrin,. I do believe some of them are sincere, faithful believers just like in ancient Israel, we could find Nicodemus, Nathaniel etc. But, they need to be careful they do not turn into the Sanhedrin of ancient Israel. Fourth, hevtalked about an issue with time. The prophecies were given so we could pay attention to events and realize the time in which we are living. In Matt. 24:32,33 Jesus said; "Now learn a parable of the fig tree: when his branch is yet tender and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh. So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors." Prophecies were given so we know the time. The events are prophecies' time telling us to get ready. That notion of time that Pst. Finley was talking about and using the Spirit of Prophesy as back up is taking out of context. Fifth, Pst. Finley in response, also talked about time is not in essence, the church needs to get ready, go forward with the third angels' message. The church has been sitting for so many years, living like the world, if the people don't realize what time it is, how they gonna give the thrird angels' message. It is those who live a transformed life that can proclain the message. Ephesians 5:27 Jesus is coming to get church not having spot, or wrinkle or any such thing. (Manuscript 122, 1901)-Those only who through faith in Christ obey all of God's commandments will reach the condition of sinlessness in which Adam lived before his transgression. They testify to the love of Christ by obeying all His precepts. Brethren, do you see the four walls with the members really ready to be bride of Christ? Sixth and last, pst Finley discussed the judgemennt of the living. I disagree the judgement of the (all) living will be during the time of the mark of the beast. The church will be judged first. Since we are the people to bring the message of Revalation 18, the judgment of the church has to be done before the latter rain. Spirit of Prophecy explained the rain is fallin in two stages. First there will be a sprinkle. That is to wake up the church and prepared her for the full strenght of the latter rain which is the loud cry. The selection of the 144,000 for the loud cry has to be done. Therefore, he can't say the judgement of all living will be during the mark of the beast. Ancient Israel probation was closed, yet they continued to offer their sacrifices and not knowing they were rejected because they were blind. What happened is written to serve as example. I can't argue on the point of pst. Gates that the church has rejected the Spirit of Prophecy. I have not seen a video or document of the 2015 gathering. However, I saw and heard of several SDA local leaders rejecting the writings of Ellem White. I do not totally agree with wth the 3.5 years that pst. Gates discussed. However, I am delighted that he did not bring it forth as definitive. He did say, let say it doesn't occur. Get ready brethren, Jesus is coming soon. The events say it all.

He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning; his blood shall be upon him. But he that taketh warning shall deliver his soul. But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman's hand. So thou, O son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me. THE SHAKING IS COMING!! I asked the meaning of the shaking I had seen, and was shown that it would be caused by the straight testimony called forth by the counsel of the True Witness to the Laodiceans. This will have its effect upon the heart of the receiver, and will lead him to exalt the standard and pour forth the straight truth. SOME WILL NOT BEAR THIS STRAIGHT TESTIMONY. THEY WILL RISE UP AGAINST IT, AND THIS WILL CAUSE A SHAKING AMONG GOD'S PEOPLE. {CET 176.1} The enemy of souls has sought to bring in the supposition that a great reformation was to take place among Seventh-day Adventists, and that this reformation would consist in giving up the doctrines which stand as the pillars of our faith, and engaging in a process of reorganization were this reformation to take place, ~what would result? 👉🏻The principles of truth that God in His wisdom has given to the remnant church, would be DISCARDED. 👉🏻Our religion would be CHANGED. 👉🏻The FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES THAT HAVE SUSTAINED THE WORK FOR THE LAST FIFTY YEARS would be ACCOUNTED AS ERROR. 👉🏻A NEW ORGANIZATION would be established. 👉🏻Books of a new order would be written. 👉🏻A system of intellectual philosophy would be introduced. 👉🏻The founders of this system would go into the cities, and do a wonderful work. 👉🏻The Sabbath of course, would be lightly regarded, as also the God who created it. 👉🏻Nothing would be allowed to stand in the way of the new movement. 👉🏻The leaders would teach that virtue is better than vice, but God being removed, they would place their dependence on human power, which, without God, is worthless. 👉🏻Their foundation would be built on the sand, and storm and tempest would sweep away the structure. ~1SM 203,204

Should we be prepared for Christ's return at any moment? YES! In fact, our hearts and minds should be ready at all times, for it matters not if Jesus physically returns next week, if we die today - our probation will still have closed, perhaps without the forgivness of our sins. "However, no one knows the day or hour when these things will happen, not even the angels in heaven or the Son himself. Only the Father knows." Matthew 24:36. Therefore, to set a specific day or year for Christ's return is unscriptural, thus very dangerious indeed.

"At this I raised my eyes, and saw a straight and narrow path, cast up high above the world. On this path the Advent people were traveling to the city, which was at the farther end of the path. They had a bright light set up behind them at the beginning of the path, which an angel told me was the midnight cry. This light shone all along the path and gave light for their feet so that they might not stumble. If they kept their eyes fixed on Jesus, who was just before them, leading them to the city, they were safe. But soon some grew weary, and said the city was a great way off, and they expected to have entered it before. Then Jesus would encourage 15 them by raising His glorious right arm, and from His arm came a light which waved over the Advent band, and they shouted, "Alleluia!" Others rashly denied the light behind them and said that it was not God that had led them out so far. The light behind them went out, leaving their feet in perfect darkness, and they stumbled and lost sight of the mark and of Jesus, and fell off the path down into the dark and wicked world below. Soon we [SEE APPENDIX.] heard the voice of God like many waters, which gave us the day and hour of Jesus' coming. The living saints, 144,000 in number, knew and understood the voice, while the wicked thought it was thunder and an earthquake. When God spoke the time, He poured upon us the Holy Ghost, and our faces began to light up and shine with the glory of God, as Moses' did when he came down from Mount Sinai." {EW 14.1}

Let us not focus into such things about who is right or wrong ...neither let us condemn anyone but rather pray for all our church leaders. We are ought to know that good things and bad things will happen within the church but just because of that, let us not fall prey to what we see happening within the church lest we turn our focus from Christ and the spirit of prophecy and turn a prey to the devil. We r ought to know that these things will happen within the church but we are to turn our eyes from all these conflicts and move forward with Christ and the spirit of prophecy that is readily available to all ..let us not loose our focus on the things which concerns our eternal salvation the most. Let us not forget that by involving in such arguments regarding the things happening within the church we are forgetting what the devil is looking forward to turn away our eyes from Jesus and the spirit of prophecy by being involved in the conflicts arising within the church. Yes I agree it is good to know the things happening within the church personally. Yes but let us not focus on these things but rather be wise in moving forward with Jesus knowing that these things will happen within the church. Let us not allow our mind to dwell upon such things that happen around us ...but let us fix our eyes on Jesus and spirit of prophecy which the Lord has given us and move forward to the day that the Lord has appointed himself to come.

The study he does on this topic is very thorough where as pastor Gates just touched on some things and did not give all the Spirit of Prophecy and Bible like Branner did. I would encourage you to watch them twice and take notes on the statements with provided S.O.P and Bible. What he provides backs it up completely so there is definitely something to this that we need to take a better look at. There are 3 sermons that I know of and pastor Gates provides the link. Please do your part by watching the original message with it's thorough delineation before writing off the message altogether. You really can't go by what pastor Gates goes over in his video, that wasn't the whole message with all the supporting evidence. It was really well done by pastor Branner. God bless you and I pray we are all ready for our precious Saviour's soon return.

As for me personally, I listened to the topic and also listened to the message of Pastor Arthur Branner, but my focus was to prepare and be ready for whatever happens, BUT, by listening to the messages and seeing that the G20 is proposing to the Pope Francisco as president of the new world order about 3 weeks ago, they tell me that something is going to happen, they tell me that I must be ready and be sanctified by God. What I know is that the period of Daniel 12 is a repetitive period according to the Spirit of prophecy, so when the Papacy is placed as a world leader (that is already being talked about), they tell me that what they are talking about Gates or Branner or others who are talking the same thing, something is going to happen. On the other hand so many catastrophes, fires, social problems, terrorism in what the United States is plunged like never before, this calls me powerfully the attention ... should I be silent? I can count on the fingers of one hand how many pastors are helping the adventist churches understand the times ...... Excuse me Pastor Finley, but instead of making a video saying that our brother David is not well in his reports, you should do a video explaining Daniel Cap 12 in relation to Rev 13 and 17, as Helen White said for this days, and alert the world of what is coming, that would be more profitable for me, than making a video talking about another brother. When pastor Borg Esteban heard the same theme from Gates, Borg said he talked to David Gates about that directly, he never made a video to criticize what Gates had said. So, you should have talked to Gates and if the Spirit that enlightens you convinces Pastor Gates of his "mistake", surely Pastor Gates would make another video to excuse his word. Your subject, does not sanctify me. Blessings.

[@kaddymorgan1625]

I am not saying that Gates is right, what I am saying is that it is better to make a video explaining Daniel 12 and Revelation 13,17 as Helena White said for this time, instead of discussing whether someone is right or wrong according to the times. If Gates and the rest of the pastors are right or not, may God judge that not me. Because Gates is not the only one talking about that. Personally, I do not share the theme of Gates very much, but I pray to God so that whatever happens I can be prepared and sanctified by God. Daniel 12 says that when the abomination of desolation is established it will begin the 1290 days and seeing that the G20 is proposing the papacy as president of the new world order, there is no doubt that what will happen will be soon.

I’ve watched both this video and Paster Gates Video. I have to conclude the Paster Finely defended his position solely on clear statements from the SOP regarding the setting of time prophecies. Sister white is clear that there will be no more time prophecies. I love the work that Paster Gates has done, he has been a great inspiration to many of us. But when you weigh his revelation to that of the SOP, as well as our historical stance on the 3 1/2 yr, 42 month 1260 day/yr interpretation, it comes up short. Finley is right. You can’t transfer the time period over in this way. Also, considering the clarity of what the SOP says, Time Prophecy finished in 1844. You can’t change those statements.

[@silaslang]

We were firm in the belief that the preaching of definite time was of God. It was this that led men to search the Bible diligently, discovering truths they had not before perceived. Jonah was sent of God to proclaim in the streets of Nineveh that within forty days the city would be overthrown; but God accepted the humiliation of the Ninevites, and extended their period of probation. Yet the message that Jonah brought was sent of God, and Nineveh was tested according to His will. The world looked upon our hope as a delusion, and our disappointment as its consequent failure; but though we were mistaken in the event that was to occur at that period, there was no failure in reality of the vision that seemed to tarry. - {CET 54.4} Yet God accomplished His own beneficent purpose in permitting the warning of the judgment to be given just as it was. The great day was at hand, and in His providence the people were brought to the test of a definite time, in order to reveal to them what was in their hearts. The message was designed for the testing and purification of the church. They were to be led to see whether their affections were set upon this world or upon Christ and heaven. They professed to love the Saviour; now they were to prove their love. Were they ready to renounce their worldly hopes and ambitions, and welcome with joy the advent of their Lord? The message was designed to enable them to discern their true spiritual state; it was sent in mercy to arouse them to seek the Lord with repentance and humiliation. - {GC 353.1} This test would reveal the strength of those who with real faith had obeyed what they believed to be the teaching of the word and the Spirit of God. It would teach them, as only such an experience could, the danger of accepting the theories and interpretations of men, instead of making the Bible its own interpreter. To the children of faith the perplexity and sorrow resulting from their error would work the needed correction. They would be led to a closer study of the prophetic word. They would be taught to examine more carefully the foundation of their faith, and to reject everything, however widely accepted by the Christian world, that was not founded upon the Scriptures of truth. - {GC 354.1}

What he's saying is that its just around the corner and that it looks interesting in terms of old established prophecy, and that it seems to fit the 3.5 years. He saying big things may happen next Spring in the push for the law. But we all know through SOP that there will be a big movement across the the world to push for a Sunday Law, and that the populace will demand it from their leaders. There will be one tragedy after another, and this will all be blamed on Sabbath keepers. There is a Sunday Law ready to go. the time for it is going forward. its getting closer and closer. many things have to happen before it is to be decreed by our US government. but i dont think its possible to happen this Spring. all said , I still support Gates' message and want to hear more. get ready , get ready , get ready!

iztheterrible I respect Paster Gates and his labours. If it wasn’t for his testimonies I would never have gotten involved in the work. With that said, I have to measure what he said in his video to the SOP AND... our fundamental beliefs concerning the interpretation of biblical time prophecy. He clearly stated that probation on the Church would close around the spring, March and April specifically, of 2019. That’s what he said. And though he may have eluded to “not setting a date”, this is exactly what was done. The SOP says that there will be “no more time prophecy.” There will be no more prophecy based on time. No message from God will come to us as a movement that will be centred around time. That’s SOP... that’s E.G White...I have to accept those statements, in-spite of who is giving the message. Secondly, we DO NOT believe in a literal 3 1/2 year time prophecy. That’s Futurism... that’s JESUITISM, invented by Francisco Ribera in 1585 to combat the Reformation. We believe in a “day for a year” principle. You can’t apply that principle to one prophecy and dismiss it at another. There has to be consistency, else we open ourselves up to confusion, misapplication and to every wind of doctrine under the sun. I’m sorry, but in spite of who is giving a message, if it violates the fundamental rules of biblical interpretation, whether they are independent or from the conference, Gates or Finley... Liberal or Conservative, ecumenical or present truth... I myself, must align with a “Thus saith the Lord.” To the law AND TO THE TESTIMONY... if they speak not according to this word... I refuse to support a “who” for the sake of being a part of a particular “group”. It’s about the truth here. We are in the business of declaring prophetic events not setting prophetic dates.

I have never heard that SDA are working with pope or worship Ellen G white.Evrry preacher of SDA does mentioned Ellen G white but always sealed with Bible.They never worship Ellen G white.They use Ellen as a guide to understand the Bible.Then,i find out none of what Ellen wrote is wrong and apposite to the Bible at all.In fact it's relatable to our present world. This videos is important to clarify the videos of David gates.In his sermon,A year ago David mentioned SDA meet with pope and accused SDA and Catholics serving women who are Ellen g white and Mary. Catholics do worship Mary.But not SDA worship Ellen. SDA meeting with Pope is not a different thing as Me having a Hindu or a Muslim friends.Me having a friendship with a person who believe in Hindus and Islam doesn't make ME Non- christian. In fact Christian should be kind and friendly inorder to spread the word of God. It's okay to have meal with them,shopping with them,playing games with them.we can meet,we can be friends. Lastly Adventist believed in Sabbath and they learned Saturday according to biblical calender. Pope made Sabbath as Sunday. Sunday law will come sooner or later.Most of all,Every person died yesterday today tommrww cannot make it right the mistakes they did in life over again, so probation for them closed immediately.But Judgement is yet to come.

The scriptures say we wrestle not against flesh and blood, friend. It's a power to sway us to Satan and lose our souls when error is involved but its truth that brings the heart to God and the church will flourish once we give our whole hearts its not people or pastors that we are to look too.

[@JackMarti1956]

This is an honest disagreement with Bro. Gates using Biblical and SOP supporting texts. I certainly agree that time-setting is huge problem with Bro. Gates' message. We always need to be ready. If fear is your motivation, you are following the wrong spirit. "God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind." 2 Tim. 1:7

Beautiful verse ! “Those who think they must preach definite time in order to *make an impression* upon the people do not work from the right standpoint . The *feelings* of the people may be stirred and their *fears* aroused, but they *do not move from principle* . An *excitement* is created; but when the time passes, as it has done repeatedly, those who moved out upon time fall back into *coldness, darkness, and sin , and it is almost impossible to arouse their consciences without some great excitement* .” Testimonies, volume 4, 308.

I agree wit u Pastor Finley, the Lord is not waiting for time or events, he’s waiting for transform hearts...

[@tianeken]

"Christ is waiting with longing desire for the manifestation of Himself in His church. *When the character of the Saviour shall be perfectly reproduced in His people, then He will come to claim His own* . It is the privilege of every Christian, not only to look for, but to *hasten* , the coming of our Lord. Were all who profess His name bearing fruit to His glory, *how quickly* the whole world would be sown with the seed of the gospel! *Quickly* the last great harvest would be ripened, and Christ would come. {CT 324.3}

[@derekriethmeier4366]

Forget about David Gates, what really concerns me is all the crazy stuff people are posting in the comments section. Like, "Hey, look! A Mark Finley video--what a great time to tell the world my opinion on Trinity/Jesuits/LGBT/whatever." Gosh I hope we don't get many non-Adventists watching this video or they are going to think we're all out of our minds.

[@statutesofthelord]

Why do you use soft swear words?

[@garytraversy5231]

Derek Riethmeier Not to know who the true God of the Bible is disqualifies one from preaching the 1st angel's message...for its all about WHO we should WORSHIP. This IS the message God's faithful children are to give to the world....and is VERY relevant to the theme of this video.

[@xymonau2468]

Most of the people who have responded definitely ARE out of their minds. They worship a man and take instruction from him instead of the bible.

[@renarich4942]

Next time can u insert the clip of what he was saying not paraphrasing. I've watched the even at the doors and didn't see anything amiss. What am I missing

[@HL365]

Hi Rena, the main issue with the video from David gates is that he was predicting about events that would take place for which there is no biblical or Ellen White support.

Nothing. You are seeing. Everyone with a heart for Christ is seeing... the apostasy of the church/state GC

Pastor Finley: is true that the SDA church support the clinics that practice abortion?

[@thankfully1202]

Loma Linda is one of the main abortion places and has been a long time.

[@montyrackley612]

Where's the voice of Finley on this? Or directing Ted Wilson on what the mark of the beast is, or who the beast is.

[@thankfully1202]

@@montyrackley612 They are not allowed to speak about that because they made the agreement with the Pope several yrs ago.

[@samuelchansa8174]

I may not agree with pastor David gates interpretation of bible prophecy relating past prophecies to the end time,but now I see that his video has raised the seventh day adventists all over the world to the study of end time prophecies.The time line for end time prophecies is 2017,when protestantism was supposedly ended,and catholics and protestants signed ecumenical documents that they were now one faith,fulfilling Great controversy page 444-445.That same year we saw the beginning of creation of the image to the beast,Revelation 13:13-15,which is union of church and state working together.We also,saw president Trump signing the executive order allowing churches to participate in matters of politics.This is how close we have come to fulfilment of bible prophecy.From 2017, any year Sunday law can be decreed.It,s a time of preparation for the church.

[@earlysda]

Almost nothing you write regarding prophecy is true, as nothing of note happened on the prophetic timeline in 2017.

[@CathyRoberts1]

Oh dear people, have we become so numb to "comments" and "criticism", are we so pulled down by our own opinions that we do not see how we are all being manipulated by the enemy? Focus....refocus on Jesus! Stop... please....stop this unnecessary madness....stop opening the door to sin. Don't give up your Salvation....the one thing that Jesus came to this earth to offer each of us because of our foolish self centered need to have an opinion. Oh my heart is sad for all of us.
