I love this program finally I’m learning something.

[@CheyenneRosero]

I like the new look for this program! Thanks again for all of the insight, I love discussions about the Sabbath

[@qhazwel]

"By the Grace of Christ, we can overcome sin; if it is in that sense then this is the Biblical teaching of perfection." What is, "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me." if it isn't to enable us for this cleansing from sin?

Try organizing your question better

I will translate it into Italian. God bless you

[@lindseydiaz1453]

Amén 🙏🏼 praise God!!! Other bible passages that support this idea of moral perfection include: Matthew 22:1-14, Revelations 19:6-8, along with Ellen White's Christ’s Object Lessons chapter 24 which all speak of the wedding garment and the perfection of those redeemed through justification in Christ. God bless this program and anyone who watches ❤

Dear Pastors, I love hearing you answer the questions on "I'd Like to Know" and have seen every episode you have offered on SUMtv. This particular episode has a different beginning, which I like, and a different background behind the Pastors. The background is nice, except when you focus on the Pastor answering the question, and then the background becomes very unpleasant for my eyes. There are perpendicular lines which become visible and move, and to me it actually hurts my eyes and I must close them. I apologize for being critical, but what I experience may also be felt by other viewers. Is there any way you could make the close up background solid without movement? Thanks for all the wonderful work you do preparing SDA's for the sealing at the end of time. God Bless!

Thank you so much for sharing your feedback! We are aware of it and our technical team is on it. We apologize for the inconvenience.

I agree & understand totally about the true Sabbath. This is another one that is in question: Ezekiel 20:12 “Moreover also I gave them my sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, that they might know that I am the Lord that sanctify them.” sabbaths (ceremonial) or sabbaths (10 moral Commandments)?

[@aajc112]

It's a great question. Multiple times in this passage you have the Sabbath being presented as plural. Perhaps this is because of how Ezekiel is writing, since he's talking about the disobedience of Israel. Look at verse 16: "Because they despised my judgments, and walked not in my statutes, but polluted my sabbaths: for their heart went after their idols." So he describes them not obeying God's judgments and statutes as well. So maybe since those are plural, God decided to have the word Sabbath be plural as well. Maybe to illustrate how God was so longsuffering with them, God is saying "not only did they pollute the Sabbath once, but they polluted the Sabbath many times! I was merciful and did not punish them after the first time, but since they insist on doing it over and over again, I must take action". Just speculation, but that's the idea that came to my head. Let me know what you think. God bless you!

[@MSB780]

@@aajc112 I love that answer, because it makes perfect sense. In the Old Testament, it seems like God was just always trying to get his people to turn around. They were constantly going a different way than the best way-God’s way, and He would have to allow things and do things that didn’t seem loving, because they weren’t being loving towards God. So your answer really fits. I can relate to them, because sometimes I think that way about myself: “If you’d stop acting like a jerk you wouldn’t have so much trouble!” 🤦‍♀️ Thanks 😊 ❣️

I dont want to sin. I would like to be perfect but am not. Sin now is different to me than when I was really sinning. It is more subtle. My whole life was sinful or wrong. I was rebaptized into SDA church at 85. Have a long way to go.

[@robertmcvicar5824]

Adam was perfect Jesus was impeccable. Creature perfection always falls.

[@joedinofrio8189]

The only thing we can do is afflict our souls, and cry out for mercy over our sin. Flesh and bone will not inherit the kingdom Repentance, The faith of Jesus, and the righteousness of Christ, are free gifts to those who learn to hate their sin, and forsake the world

HOW DO YOU ABIDE IN CHRIST ? JOHN 15:1-10 , " 1.I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. 2Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. 3Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. 4Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. 5I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. 6If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. 7If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. 8Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. 9As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. 10.If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love. SHALOM !

To believe that we cannot be perfect is idolitry, that's having a wrong view of the power of God,

[@pauladavid3999]

Dear brother, the handwriting against us were our sins not the law of Moses, is sleeping with your mother or making tattoos abolished?? These are part of Moses law ( btw there is not such a biblical word as “Ceremonial Law” that’s theological definition. Colossians 2 is talking about “ philosophy of man”, not about the Law of Moses, please be honest and read all the chapter under this understanding. None of the Law has passed away, the Law of Moses was given to protect the ten commandments like a detailed explanation of the ten. The mission of Jesus Christ was to nail our sins to the cross: "Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed." (1 Peter 2:24) , and not the law. 3. The problem of the Colossians was that people appeared who wanted to spoil them through philosophy and vain deceit after the tradition of men:"Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ." Col.2:8. And the Law given by God to Moses cannot in any way be called philosophy and human tradition. 4. The laws on sacrifices although they were associated with the Decalogue, were not part of it. While all other commandments, statutes and laws were nothing more than expanded commandments of the Decalogue. " He did not even then trust His precepts to the memory of a people who were prone to forget His requirements, but wrote them upon tables of stone. He would remove from Israel all possibility of mingling heathen traditions with His holy precepts, or of confounding His requirements with human ordinances or customs. But He did not stop with giving them the precepts of the Decalogue. The people had shown themselves so easily led astray that He would leave no door of temptation unguarded. Moses was commanded to write, as God should bid him, judgments and laws giving minute instruction as to what was required. These directions relating to the duty of the people to God, to one another, and to the stranger were only the principles of the Ten Commandments amplified and given in a specific manner, that none need err. They were designed to guard the sacredness of the ten precepts engraved on the tables of stone. "PP 364.1 Since they are part of the Ten Commandments, they could not be canceled with the death of Christ, because they were given to explain and protect the Ten Commandments from violation. 5. The laws given to Moses were not shadows of images that were to pass away. The following quote illustrates this. "In consequence of continual transgression, the moral law was repeated in awful grandeur from Sinai. Christ gave to Moses religious precepts which were to govern the everyday life. These statutes were explicitly given to guard the ten commandments. They were not shadowy types to pass away with the death of Christ. They were to be binding upon man in every age as long as time should last. These commands were enforced by the power of the moral law, and they clearly and definitely explained that law."RH May 6, 1875, par.10
