“PUC student”: “Sure, but if growth is how you measure success, you should know…”

I was not trying to measure success. I was simply rebutting your insinuation that SAU needs to promote themselves by paying for biased reporting.

Those who have studied the Adventist message should be recognizing the signs that are pointing to a very near second coming of Jesus. They are unfolding at an increasing frequency – just as labor pains.

The “righteous” will be taken to Heaven – traveling across the universe in just a few days.

Millions of redeemed will be changed and caught up “in the air” and taken on this great trip.

The earth will be desolate of life, except for Satan and his rebel angels. The lost of humanity will be dead, awaiting “the second resurrection”.

Do you believe these things? If you don’t believe that God could create the world and all in it in six days, you probably believe the above scenario to be something besides what it is represented to be.

BUT –
Again, those who have carefully and prayerfully studied this message, will see the signs that it is coming soon. We are in the very end times.

I have been reading the book “The Story of Redemption”. I’d like to share here the final paragraph of the chapter – The Great Apostasy. (p. 324-325) I think it is so very relevant to the entire basis of this whole forum. What do YOU think?

“The apostle Paul declares that ‘all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.’ 2 Tim 3:12 Why is it, then, that persecution seems in a great degree to slumber? The only reason is that the church has conformed to the world’s standard, and therefore awakens no opposition. The religion current in our day is not of the pure and holy character which marked the Christian faith in the days of Christ and His apostles. It is only because of the spirit of compromise with sin, because the great truths of the Word of God are so indifferently regarded, because there is so little vital godliness in the church, that Christianity is apparently so popular with the world. Let there be a revival of the faith and power of the early church, and the spirit of persecution will be revived and the fires of persecution will be rekindled.”

To be honest, I never thought I’d see the day when we would have the basis for an evolution / creation debate within our church. But we also know that there “will be a revival of primitive Godliness…” AND really, there ARE groups within our ranks where this is happening.

Jesus is coming soon. The opportunity for sealing our relationship with our Groom is passing by the “sleeping virgins”‘ It is happening, my brothers and sisters.

Seal your relationship with Jesus, today.

I think we are pretty much on the same page. There is no way to know if the seven-day cycle could be broken without demonstrating it. I do know that it is engrained within me and that is the best evidence I have.

As to proving creation? I think the “scientific model” does work in proving it. As “brilliant” as the “scientists” in the world are today, they still need to demonstrate how one can take basic elements and put “life” into them – thus starting life. How could they logically expect anyone to buy into it happening by accident when it cannot even be demonstrated in a lab?

For me, simple logic demands that we are here by the creative power of God, Who created everything in perfection – just as the record that he has preserved for us explains. But my conviction is deeper than simple logic. I listen to the “still small voice” that spoke to Elijah in the wilderness when he fled from Jezebel after Carmel. For those who do not know that “voice”, I guess I’ll be considered as crazy. That is okay. There will be plenty of others who know what I am talking about. If you know that “Sweet Spirit” it makes abundant sense.

Jesus is coming soon. If we do not wholly embrace that relationship now, it will soon be too late.

No matter how the FBs are worded, there will be contention about it.

Anyone who has fully embraced this message realizes that the days to Jesus’ coming are few. Thus it behooves us to be about the work of proclaiming the unique ADVENTIST message to a world that is facing impending doom.

May I suggest the sermons of Jeremiah Davis. (can be found on Youtube)

@gene fortner: I don’t think anyone really knows what powers were being exercised on 9/11. Clearly the airliners were involved.

It was an event that changed the world in ways that top-down powers would yearn for.

No point in speculation… I think Veith probably was mistaken to do that deep dive and it seems that he has quietly backed away from it.

The thing we must focus on is to “Turn your eyes upon Jesus….” Clearly, we are in “the last days”.

@David Read: I find Veith’s “theorizing” regarding “conspiracies” to be spot on and on topic.

There is a great “conspiracy” – otherwise known as “The Great Controversy”. It is the ultimate reality of our rebellious little world today. AND it is the foundation of all of these other problems we deal with.

AND, IT WILL BE ENDING SOON!

Evidence that God is in control. LSU could become a beacon of light shining on the truth of our world an how we came to be here. That is as it should be.

I believe we are involved in a Mount Carmel experience. As this world is hurling toward the great climactic “END”, we will see more and greater attacks against the truth by the great deceiver. The prophets of Baal will become bolder and more feverish. (Remember that the prophets of Baal on Mt Carmel were much from within the nation of Israel.)

What a day of reckoning it will be when “at such a time as we think not” that great cloud approaches this world. The signs today are loud and bold. Jesus is coming. Spread the word.
