Comment on Northern California Conference Votes to Act Independent of the General Conference by Daniel Shannon.
What many seem to forget is that True Christianity is not a “democracy.” Either God has the final say or not. This whole issue has/is and will divide this church and any one with any form of a military background knows to defeat an enemy one must divide, divide and conquer. Satan is a master of such techniques and we see it now. We are told the “church will appear as if it is about to fall” and we are seeing it now.
You certainly are correct that there is no justification for any union, division etc to turn from the decision made at THREE GC meetings. It is simply another form of “we will do what is right in our own eyes. Also I know that this whole issue will open the door, if it hasn’t already, for other major issues that have negatively affected other Christian denominations. We are on a slippery slope and it will speed up as we get closer to Christ return.

With all due respect Sean Mrs. White makes it clear we are to take Scripture as it is written. It says what it says and words have meaning. IF the term “man” in this case was generic than it makes no sense for Paul to say “MUST be blameless, the husband of one wife” for it is impossible for a woman to be the HUSBAND.

I do believe 1 Timothy 3 is very clear. It starts off with “This is a TRUE saying . . . ” Paul is clearly telling Timothy the order of things to be done within the “hierarchy” of the church. The term translated “bishop” could also have been translated “overseer,” “superintendent,” “guardian,” and even “elder.” And the individual to fulfill such a very important place “MUST be blameless, the HUSBAND of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behavior . . . ” etc. In his letter to Titus he confirms this order! Not once but twice does God through Paul tell us the order of HIS church. I will not argue with God about this. Everything must line up with THAT understanding. Why? Because God has said so.

@Sean Pitman: Normally I not comfortable about speaking about specific individuals but to use Ty Gibson as a reference, sorry it is, in my humble opinion, a big mistake. I’ve tried to get some dialogue going with him regarding his sermons dealing with Righteousness by Faith, specifically his sermon dealing with Romans 7. He has not answered me. IF someone claims to be preaching “Righteousness by Faith,” the message given to us by God in 1888 I would strongly advise them to study THAT message given by Jones, Waggoneer and Mrs. White BEFORE attempting to preach it! Ty’s message presented dealing with Romans 7 was flat out wrong when comparing it to Waggoneer’s book “Waggoneer on Romans.” So as far as I am concerned, having almost all of the books he wrote, Ty’s books that is, I find that his understanding has changed, he has moved off of the mark. I would suggest instead of using him as authority in this or any subject pray for him!

@Professor Kent: Professor, whether or not we have Jesuits at the GC, SAU or elsewhere is not the issue. The TRUTH is. TRUTH is the issue here and as I’ve already posted, I know what LSU has indeed been teaching our youth.

Ummm Professor I would suggest you go back and reread my reply. I said it was my NEIGHBOR’s daughter, not mine. Secondly the very issue that almost caused her to lose her faith was THIS very issue under discussion. Evolution versus Creation. She conveyed to us that the professor responsible ridiculed ANYONE who disagreed with him, embarassed them in front of the whole class. In other words, any one that believed God created this planet in six days was attacked.
