Seventh-day
Adventists have a large system of theology which they often
draw upon when they start threads on subtle or fine points of
SDA theology. It’s too much of a distraction to have to defend
a fundamental Adventist presupposition in a thread devoted to
a purpose other than Adventism 101.
If persons not of the Seventh-day Adventist faith are so
inclined, they should consider challenging the fundamental
presuppositions of Seventh-day Adventists in the
Seventh-day Adventist Believe section, instead of
interrupting threads devoted to the cutting edge of Adventist
thought. Or they may start their own thread in this section if
they wish.
This is a request for common Christian courtesy. There is a
need for Adventists to be alerted to deeper issues. Please
don’t distract or detour them from wrestling with more
challenging questions. Practice the golden rule.
Every distraction and interruption to a thread weakens the
interest that otherwise might have been generated in a
forthright and direct investigation of the proposed topic.

Well its
seems you want to post your thoughts and go unchallenged or
un-questioned over these critical spiritual issues. I am sorry
but if I see a counterfeit doctrine creeping in I must speak
my mind and as I understand it this forum gives me and others
the liberty to do so, otherwise you should ban all non
adventists and be exclusive.
Please consider this verse:
2 Timothy 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of
season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and
doctrine
It says in season or out. In other words when its wanted or
not, speak the truth. If you are concerned about getting your
dogma de-railed then perhaps you should consider how it is
presented.
In all things be kind and respectful and may God Bless you
richly in the name of Jesus

I agree Eugene,
It is common courtesy to keep to the topic and to the
point. It causes confusion to have disruptions, attacks,
arguments and etc. that are spontaneous and uncalled for.
God is not the author of confusion, nor is He inconsiderate.
This is the first law of Heaven: We should let all things be
done decently and in order.
Wells
Originally called the Spirit of Prophecy:
“ ‘He that is not with Me is against Me,’ Christ
declares, ‘and he that gathereth not with Me scattereth
abroad.’ God has given to every man his work. He expects
every follower of His to exert an influence that will tell
for the upbuilding of His kingdom. He who is not actively
engaged in promoting love and unity and equity is exerting
an influence that is opposed to Christ.” SpTB02,
44.
