Brother Matheson writes in a thread he calls Slippage. I thought it was something to do with boats but I found out differently. Thanks brother Matherson.
In her day Ellen White [or somebody who read her writings and attempted to convey their meaning to us] witnessed the evils of using the organ pipes to pump out music during circus -style events. Now, we see it not only at the Circus [which we should never attend for it only excites the flesh] but also in church.
Now in church , we see how worldly we have become. We have our sharply dressed preachers entering with their zoot suits, wearing their mafia -style hats. We see women with gaudy adornments on their heads, hats with all manner of artificial flowers. We see the fur coats, the costly array of gold and silver buttons, and yet we say nothing.
We hear the organs pumping out BASS NOTES to the simple hymns, the low notes vibrating at such a frequency as to arrouse LUSTFULL THOUGHTS, yet we do nothing.
How much longer will we wait , oh brethren? How long will the elder driving the expensive Deusenburg or Cadillac determine the direction of the church?
My brothers , I even hear reports that GUITARS are being entered into the church. The arguement used is that they are like the harps of David, but show me one illustrartion in the Bible that shows David playing a GUITAR. This Biblical revisionism is shocking.
This past Sabbath , our pastor even described how he and his family weekly gather around the radio to hear DRAMATIC worldy spy stories and novels, designed to excite the senses. I spoke to him afterwards, and he was without excuse. He simply hung his head in shame.
WE have also made it a rule that our pastor must be appropiately dressed for the pulpit. We will no longer accept a two-part suit as being appropriate, but have elected to go toward the three part suit. Even in the summer, a vest gives more distinction to this man of the cloth.
Better have some medics on call for the poor pastor in the summer months then. A poster named The Servent continues.
Hello Brother Matherson, Read your little note on slippage. I thought we were to call sin by its right name, dont you mean 'APOSTASY', rather than slippage. This old man has seen the church in years gone by, verses what it has become today. Policy has replaced Scripture as well as common sense. Policy gives a group of individuals in the church called leaders authority over the laity that they would not other wise have, if they worked only according to scripture.
What amazes this old fellow is that the more worldliness we let into the church[pentacostal, charismatic, ecumennical, services and watered down 'love', kissy, kissy messages, rock and roll music designed to get applause], the further we drive ourselves away from God. We are headed back back into the world and all that it loves about religious services ' religious ' indeed better read Gods word before its too late.
It is my hope that everyone who call themselves SDAs will come to the task of rebuking sin in 'high places' along with its ' spiritual wickedness' and ask, why are these things happening/ The answer will be ' an enemy hath done this', Guess where they live and work [try the General conference of SDA in the DC area] .
Now if this seems ' critical ' of leadership , then call me ' John the Baptist', whom I cant wait to meet in the Kindom, Problem is today, if you take a stand for Christ and the 'true doctrines', he has set down your an enemy of the church as it were , boy oh boy I must be in reallt good company. Peter paul, John, Isiah, Noah, Moses Praise God.
I hope you fellas sort out youre problems but I do like the one about the bass notes, have to work on that one. Barry

Lord save us from the Devil the Turk the Comet and the Fanatics

Ive just come across a website run by Ted McMillan an Adventist splinter group.The group from what I have learnt beleives that the SDA Church leadership has been taken over by Jesuits and as a result the truth has been compromised.
I planned to put this up a few days ago but couldnt everytime I try to read there stuff I just start laughing and my wife just said she thought I was going crazy over the last few days.
For entertainement only,
Ted McMillan says,
An Adventist Jesuit is a Jesuit infiltrated into the Adventist Church who pretends to be an Adventist, The General Canference is chock full of them, and that is why we have Vatican Fags flying in our Conference sessions, thats why our magazines feature heathen symbols throughout.
But how would one identify a Jesuit and here things get rather confusing. From my breif time on the site if one didnt prepare for y2k, reads the niv bible, doesnt beleive all SDA doctrine or is very intelligent would qualify one to be a Jesuit plant.
Brother Matheson says,
theWe do not accuse people of being Jesuits without knowledge, and we get this knowledge through the labour of our Brother Ted. When our Brother Ted shows to us that one is a Jesuit, who are we to disagree when we havent such knowledge?
alas, he gives mercy to the erring one, even to the point of license. Brother Ted has demonstrated time and time again that those who disagree may state their claims, and words are preserved herein as a testament to the correctness of his final decisions. It is true that many have left, in fact, for a forum like this, it is clear that there have been even more infiltrators than faithful remnant who sought its cooling waters of refreshment.
Writing style can also identify a Jesuit. Brother Matherson writes
I am not being inconsistent. I am merely describing the way that youre points move in waves and back and forth. In fact , as I was reading your post, I realized how it was very carefully worded so that the sylables used were of different lenghts and rhythms so that it would be hypnotic and so that one would begin to agree with you.
In fact, I almost began to believe you until I realized that Teds statement about the cunning of the Jesuits was taking place.You are trying to make youre words seem believable because you are a Jesuit and want to infiltrate and liguify the truth.
I went through and re read your post, taking great care to give each sylable equal weight rather than speaking rhythmically, After doing that , your true identity was very visible.
Brother Matherson gets a bright idea
Since this place is a place of learning, perhaps we might be able to better abserve there tactics here , but is there a way that there names be marked with a 'J' or some other indicia so that the weaker brethren might be wary in there presence. for instance if we have a member named ' Joe Smith', who we have confirmed through Brother Teds methods is identified as a Jesuit, we might change the screen name to 'J Joe Smith'.
This would be but a small price to pay and might save many to be swept away by their crafty words.
One poster asks, Why not focus on Jesus and forget about all this conspiracy stuff,
We are indeed interested in Jesus and what he has done for us. But unfortunately, as in the rest of the internet, many of us are the people who nobody will listen to in the ' real world.'We are ignored at Sabbath School and people think we are CRAZY. However, we can come to a place like this where we can focus on those issues that interest us the most. WE don,t represent the experience you would have in a church, and I hope you try to find one that is centered where it should be .. on Jesus Christ.
Sabbath School is similar to the WT study. Please wait for my next post continuing on the same saga.Barry

Has anyone read Awake Nov 8th 'When loved ones do not share your faith',

Just before the artical 'When loved ones do not share youre faith' there is a good artical about Prague. I was over there just before it left the soviet bloc, I got arrested for my passport not being in order but it wasnt my fault. Nice historic place and things were so cheap then dunno what its like now. Barry

So this artical doesnt include the ones that have left the JW religion.To most people it would seem they were talking out of both sides of there mouth.
I think if I had to decide a position to take I would have to be an Awake JW. Barry.

For Jehovah's Witness's or those who are not:
by Singing Man inis there any part of being a witness that you think is honestly the truth?
so many people use the term "truth" when in fact there is no way to prove it is the truth.
it used to be for me being raised a witness that i thought everything printed or said was the truth now i don't.
-
barry
Being an SDA I beleive they got that term from the SDA church just as they got most of the prophecy doctrins from Adventists. I havent heard the SDAs refer to there religion ass the truth is years now.
