  7th day adventists

  by yaddayadda in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  can anyone direct me to a good website or thread on here that talks about any spin-off groups after they officially accepted the trinity doctrine, in the early 1980's i think, in order to join the world council of churches.

  was there any fragmentation in the 7th day adventists when this happened?

  any help would be appreciated.

  Im An SDA and to my knowledge no groups ha e split from the SDAs because of the change to the trinity doctrine. There are groups and individuals in the SDAs that dont beleive the trinity doctrine even today. As far as I know the SDA church is not affiliated with the world council of churches but they do have their representatives attending world council of church meetings. Barry

  All christians are born again when they beleive. The problem with some penticostals is that to them born again is speaking is toungs to be saved . Some penticostals have hijacked the born again doctrine in this way.

  Is Christmas for Pagans?

  by LittleToe in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  given that so many practises associated with christmas are blatantly christian in origin, is christmas truly for pagans?.

  i know that often there are few christian connotations attributed to it nowadays, in such a secularised society, but history is on record in showing that the whole baby jesus thing is definitely a christian element.

  would any true pagan today want to drink such a mixed cup?.

  Can I date a JW

  by Mello Yellow in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  this is troubling me.

  i started dating a girl and the relationship lasted for a little while.

  she then broke things off claiming she was in violation of her beliefs, the jw this and that, and how she'd "lose everything" if she was caught dating me.

  I dated a JW girl for a while in my 20s. She was very strict about her being right and me being mistaken as Im an SDA. I would go to the Kingdom Hall with her but she wouldnt go to services at the SDA church not even once. She did come with me to church functions at the SDAs and liked them. Her grandfather is of the annointed and is probably in heaven now, but most of her family is very devout. Barry

  we went through amarillo a few years ago on our way to colorado, and i absolutely loved the area, and i have wanted to go back ever since.

  just outside of town heading north towards dalhart the lanscape starts to take on the feel of the old west.

  there are canyons, mesas, and buttes.

  2. beliefs

  i agree with all.

  before i become a mormon i study jw and when i read about the 144.00 i remeber asking the witness if i would be one of them.. they never replid they said they would get back to me on that one but they never did.

  so what i have said is not to make it look like i dislike jws but just that i disagree with da doctrine......love ya mormon 4 life.
