I want Olaf to know how much his testimony has meant to me today. Its Sabbath mornings, and I've been wrestling with going to church at all for months. I have 2 children, and am desperate to place us all in an environment that will encourage and prepare us for what is just ahead. I understand this truth of the Father & Son, but have tried to hang on to the SDA organization for all the reasons your wife articulated. This has caused me to censor myself dispite my strong convictions. In doing so I feel like I have dishonored God and have for years felt my grip on Jesus loosening. I think the greatest pain came from the fact that nobody I love has bothered to even try to sit down and study with me, thus causing me to retreat from fellowship. Please pray with me for victory! Thank you for this powerful video!❤

thus saith ChatGPT: Biblical Unitarianism is a Christian theological perspective that emphasizes the oneness of God and rejects the traditional doctrine of the Trinity. Here are the key beliefs of Biblical Unitarianism: God is One: Biblical Unitarians believe that God is a single person, not a Trinity. They hold that God the Father is the only true God. Jesus Christ: They believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, but not God Himself. Jesus is seen as a human being who was uniquely anointed by God and exalted to a special status, but He is not considered to be God or co-equal with God. Holy Spirit: The Holy Spirit is viewed not as a separate person within a Trinity but as God's active force or presence. ======================= is that accurate?

Agreed and so very sad 😢 (I am fearful for them! Also because the judgment starts at the house of the Lord!)to see that they are unwilling to actually look and study into the reasons people are able to see through the Adventist history which was REWRITTEN by the enemy - which is why these men have been blinded and unable to believe certain facts, such as that our pioneers were unanimously non-trinitarian… just as the apostles unanimously kept the Sabbath because of the times they were in! It makes all the difference when you read things from the authors point of view. In EGW case she was non-trinitarian and is Paul’s case he believed in the one true God the Father and his son and he knew well the spirit was a part of God’s omnipresence- as he read Old Testament verses such as David saying ‘please do not take your spirit from me’… he knew well there was no other guy who was a spirit apart from God the Father and Jesus, his son.

I'm so sorry to know this video brought you to that decision. However, I would like to personally encourage you that if a denomination is sharing truth as it is in the Bible, even if there are some areas of question, remember we are humans and many of us are still trying to understand the Scriptures. Please don't let this deter you from giving your life to God. This is what the devil wants, he wants others who are of the faith and those not of the faith to become discouraged, confused, angry and wondering is this the true or right church? I can assure you this church carries the distinctive mark of what the Bible describes in Rev. 12:17, who keep the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ and Rev. 19:10 explains what the testimony of Jesus Christ is.....the Spirit of Prophecy. If you can find a church with those distinctive mark, join and become a member. Satan will always come in God's true church to cause trouble in different aspects. Ensure the word of God is your first guide and after the spirit of prophecy is only to help understand better the Scriptures. Anything we read if it doesn't line up with the word of God we can be sure it didn't come from God, it was tampered with by the enemy of souls. I hope my words have brought some clarity and will help you to turn to God in prayer for the right decision to make. God bless you my dear.🙏

Mary, the truths of the Bible God has kept safe and sound all through the millennia, by many repositories. The descendants of Adam in the direct antedeluvian lineage to Noah, Abraham's descendants, the apostolic church through the unofficial apostolic succession of alpine Valdesi, the Great reformation, the Wesleys, puritans. Today His repository is the remnant church of that long unrecognized apostolic succession, the seventh-day Adventist church. All the deception and confusion that lies ahead can be safely navigated by our adherence to the gift of prophecy to Ellen White, and by the Spirit of our personal Saviour. She is so authoritative that not a nail is to be moved in the 200,000 handwritten page platform that Jesus has bequeathed to our generation, quite possibly the generation that will be involved with fulfilling all that Jesus prepared His people for. The other protestant denominations have light and truth. But because they have given up on reforming and the conflicts that always come with reforms they fell under the influence of their old enemy from the dark ages. They are Ecumenized and "love to have it so". But more reforms are necessary, not because Mrs . White got the signals mixed up, but because of corporate backsliding. So it's time for a new reform in the remnant church, i.e. Godhead reform. And there may be more, but probably they will come gradually. But they will all have the tendency of what Jeremiah and Ellen White said, "Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls." (Jeremiah 6:16). But the same tendencies to cling to the new theologies, which cause the unstudied to cling to falsehoods that arose during a former period of darkness and ignorance reaction, will create a reaction to the foundational theology. "They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, whom your fathers feared not." (Deut. 32:17). And so many say the same as was said by the people of God ancienly, "We will not walk therein." (Jer. 6:16).

There is a seeming paradox here, when we say the Church is not Babylon, and the church is going through. Are we talking about the corporate organization of the SDA Church, or the Church, the body of believers who are true to doctrines and principles that embrace belief in the law of God, who is not a Trinity, but the one true God, and recognize that He has only one literal begotten Son ! The fourth commandment , to worship on the Holy Sabbath day, Saturday, which identifies the true creator of everything, the Judge of all the earth, the God who has given us the promise of eternal life, but has shown by the sacrifice of His Son that there is sin in this world, and He who lived a truly obedient and sinless life died in my stead to pay for the result of disobedience, which is eternal death, but because He is the sinless One, death could not hold Him! So he gives us the gift of eternal life! I recognize that death is an unconscious sleep, but it becomes eternal and total annihilation in eternity to the lost who refuse God's gift of obedience and life. The doctrines upheld by the early SDA Church, belief in soul sleep 'til the second coming of Jesus, the Judgement of God's people before His Second Advent, the sealing,the gift of the Spirit of Prophecy, to mention some, will be held by true believers, when there probably won't be any longer an organized SDA CHURCH! The body of believers will make up the true church whether there is a general conference headquarters or not, and this invisible body of believers will make up God's church to the end! THEY WILL BE SEVENTH DAY ADVENTISTS!

*Principles and beliefs are not interchangeable.* The Fundamental Principles are the pillars of the Advent faith. They are unchangeable and not voted upon because they are from the Word of God, whereas the beliefs are not necessarily Scriptural, and are voted upon and changed. Again just making reference that there is a difference between the *Fundamental "Principles" of 1872* and the *27 Fundamental "Beliefs"* voted in 1980 with the 28th belief voted in 2005. 😞 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? *¹The principles of truth that God in His wisdom has given to the remnant church,* would be discarded. ²Our religion would be changed. ³The *"fundamental principles"* that have sustained the work for the last fifty years would be accounted as error.* ⁴A new organization would be established. ⁵Books of a new order would be written. ⁶A system of intellectual philosophy would be introduced. ⁷The founders of this system would go into the cities, and do a wonderful work. ⁸The Sabbath, of course, would be lightly regarded, as also the God who created it. ⁹Nothing would be allowed to stand in the way of the new movement. ¹⁰The 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. ¹¹Their foundation would be built on the sand, and storm and tempest would sweep away the structure. *-SpTB02 54.3* Who has authority to begin such a movement? We have our Bibles. We have our experience, attested to by the miraculous working of the Holy Spirit. We have a truth that admits of no compromise.

Adventists need to get out of their bubbles and learn to study for themselves, learn to stand on their own, and drive down those spiritual roots very deeply now. Everything that can be shaken will be shaken. Yes, there are many small groups outside the church. By the way, what ever happened to the "let the wheat and the tares grow together" ?

1:59:00 I really appreciate this principle that keeps getting repeated. Where if we love our brother, we will seek to understand their position in order to correct them if we truly believe they are in error. I have certain beliefs about the sovereignty of God that are wholesale rejected by Adventists and ex- Adventists and like this brother's testimony they refuse to examine these things and study them out with me. It's shameful and very grievously discouraging and sad to say the least. You would think that people who were treated this way would not treat others the same way that they were treated when they were disfellowshipped and excommunicated from the seventh day Adventist Church. And yet they're treating other brothers the same way... brothers like me. I have begged and pleaded with people to uphold this principle of caring enough about me to understand my position and help me see the error of my ways, if that is what in fact has happened. None of them had responded according to this principle. Not only do they refuse to examine these things for themselves or seek to understand my position clearly in order to correct me, but they've told me that they don't want to hear anything about what I have to say, and I've been told not to contact any of the other brothers and sisters regarding these things that I believe that they disagree with. Talk about censorship! smh... This is how the Catholic Church gets things done.

I really like this woman's testimony especially her second dream. This is the curse that God cursed all women with back in Genesis chapter 3:16. What's interesting is he says your desire shall be for your husband and he shall rule over you and this exact phrase is repeated in chapter four verse 7 when God is speaking to Cain because Cain was hating his brother and planning to kill him. He says to Cain that sin lies at the door and its desire is for him but he should rule over it. Almost verbatim from Genesis 3:16. This desire that sin has too control and possess us is the same desire that women have been cursed to have since Eve wanted to run the show back in the garden of Eden. Women have this curse and that needs to be crucified specifically. It's really reaffirming to hear this woman come to this understanding full circle. Even if she's not referencing the bible... i can see it.

The Bible tells us that we are to see and know and understand God "by the things that are made". Romans 1:20 King James Bible "For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:" We are even to understand His "eternal power and Godhead" by the things that are made. The "invisible things" are "clearly seen", how? BY THE THINGS THAT ARE MADE. How do living things come about? They are brought forth "after their kind". Every living thing brings forth after its kind. The Eternal Father God brought forth after His Kind, the God-kind, He brought forth a Son. A DIVINE SON, THE EXPRESS IMAGE OF HIS PERSON. Even a little child understands the gospel: God had a Son, and He gave His Son to save mankind from their sins. How can a child possibly understand this massive concept? By the things that are made! He sees that fathers beget sons. God the Father begot a Son just like Himself, a divine God-kind Son. And He gave Him to save us!!

Because this 3rd person (in the trinity) is not Jesus … our very Saviour is the one who is meant to be ‘Christ in us’, Emanuel - God with us - Jesus himself is the the Holy Spirit.

(The question I have is: Who is that guy? … who has set himself up to be as the most high… with God the father - the Almighty and his son?😮 ) We do not want to have a false god… and idol that is philosophical… The connection between the God of Sabbath and the God of Sunday needs to be made clear: Note - who is the god of Sunday?: The Douay Catechism of 1649 Q. 1092. What is Sunday, or the Lord's Day in general? A. It is a day dedicated by the Apostles to the honour of the most holy Trinity, and in memory that Christ our Lord arose from the dead upon Sunday, sent down the holy Ghost on a Sunday, &c. and therefore is called the Lord's Day. It is also called Sunday from the old Roman denomination of Dies Solis, the day of the sun, to which it was sacred.

The quotation is so clear that Christ went to Heaven and sent the Third Person to be His Representative, Successor. Christ could not send Himself. Could you send yourself somewhere else? Could you send your spirit to work instead of you? Could your spirit - you be representative of you? If you could not, why then Christ could? You make great mystification of what is clearly said.

The SDA church doesn't handle cases like this as well as they should. I personally don't like it when the grieved play the victim card as these two have. Follow their concepts and interpretation and its a combination of Modalism and Catholicism. Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God (Elohim) what does that mean? What Beginning? In the beginning of this planet. It doesn't say, so you have to assume in the Beginning of ALL things- the plural form of the title Elohim is used translated "God". Why the plural form of the word. Its because they were both there and if you believe in the Trinity (not the Catholic Trinity) but 3 separate personality's with one purpose Trinity, they 3 were present from the Beginning. This group is trying to make the relationship human literally not metaphorically, Father Son. First 4 words "In the beginning God" If you can explain what that means in its entirety then you really are a scholar if not join the crowd, this couple need to study more they are just beginning. As Jayne said in the beginning of the video "I don't really understand, I depend on my husbands understanding" its what too many of us do, you had better start studying and learning for yourself-

Hello Mike, does not Genesis 1 say, that God made man(Adam) in his image? He formed his image("Adam" 2:7) of the dust of the ground. Adam was only one personal individual. Paul wrote “For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man." (1 Corinthians 11:7) And we can read in Genesis 1:26 that God adresses someone beside him. He does not speak to himself. God was speaking to Christ "who is the express image His(Gods) person"(Hebrews 1:3). We have also abundance testimonies that God created the world through or by Christ, his Son(Ephesians 3:9, Hebrews 1:2, John 1:2) Moses was also called "elohim" but he is only one personal being. (see Exodus 7:1)?

Those who will diligently study this book will have no relish for the cheap sentiments presented by those who have a burning desire to get out something new and strange to present to the flock of God. The rebuke of God is upon all such teachers. They need that one teach them what is meant by godliness and truth.

Part 1 of 2 I had to split this into two parts. I hope this answers some of your perplexities. John 6:40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day. "Believeth" is in the present tense, not the past tense. It isn't that a person who ever once believed anytime in the history of their life will have everlasting life. And what does it mean to believe? There are two main ways: believing as in a mental assent only, and believing in the sense of having a trust in Christ. This is why the devils believe and tremble (see James 2:19), yet they have no trust in Christ. Believing in that way only is not unto salvation. Those that trust Christ will allow him into their lives, so that they will go and sin no more. The Greek word for believe is "pisteuo" G4100 which comes from the Greek word "pistis" G4102, which is faith. "Believe" is just the verb form of the noun "faith". Yet one can leave the faith, as we saw in 1 Timothy 5:12. They can choose to stop believing. That choice is because the love of sin is greater than that person's love for Christ. 1 Corinthians 15: 1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. If all who have believed at any time in the past are to have eternal life, how can anyone have believed in vain? Galatians 2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. 17 But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid. 18 For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor. Here "have believed" is in the Aorist tense in the Greek. From Blue Letter Bible we see this about the Aorist tense: "Is characterized by its emphasis on punctiliar action; that is, the concept of the verb is considered without regard for past, present, or future time. There is no direct or clear English equivalent for this tense, though it is generally rendered as a simple past tense in most translations. The events described by the aorist tense are classified into a number of categories by grammarians. The most common of these include a view of the action as having begun from a certain point ("inceptive aorist"), or having ended at a certain point ("cumulative aorist"), or merely existing at a certain point ("punctiliar aorist").. . ." So they had been believing, since they began believing, that they might be justified by the faith of Christ. Does that mean that the can go back to sinning. God forbid! What was destroyed that being built again makes one a transgressor? Romans 6:6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. This is referring to the born again experience, see the context. Yet one can rebuild that body of sin and again become a transgressor. Sin is the transgression of the law (1 John 3:4). This is the only definition for sin in the whole Bible. Matthew 24:12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. When the love in the heart becomes cold and one returns to a life of sin, they again need to repent, or they won't be saved. Revelation 2:4 Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. 5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent. Romans 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. It is whether the person follows (or walks after) the flesh or the Spirit. And they must continue to walk in the Spirit to continue to overcome temptations. to be continued.....
