  Ruby,

  I admit we are a bunch of the descendants of criminals from England but we have advanced to a modern society.

  I believe the elders are getting a dose of the same medicine they give out to the people under their care in the congregation because in this royal commission they are treated better than the people under them that have suffered as victims

  that's wat i heard the other day.

  now you pay fines for your sins.. adultery is a 450 euro's ( for a firsttimer).

  smoking is a 300 -500 euro's sin ( depents on what the blow was).

  SDA church general conference has voted NO on womens ordination and now there is a big fight

  last wednesday the question was put 'can unions ordain women as ministers in the sda church?

  the vote was defeated yes 41.35 to no 58.45.. the dutch churches responded quickly saying they won't be changing there policy and will continue to ordain women.. the north american division and the two conferences in california have women pastors that are already ordained.. the sda pastors in china are mostly women.. the internet is running hot with opinions one way or the other.

  here is how millennials feel about there church at this point most are studying at an sda university.

  Steve2,

  The argument with the WO people would be that Paul was man of his time. Remember slavery was allowed in the new testament and slaves were instructed to obey their masters. Cultural norms are different today.

  Worldwide Church of God collapse

  by cog_survivor in

  on my introduction post a few people expressed interest in how the worldwide church of god (wwcg) imploded.

  i think maybe in hopes something similar will happen with the jws.

  i think the jws will also eventually experience a meltdown but probably not in the same way since the power structure was a bit different.

  As I understand it the WWCOG divided into a number of churches all with different beliefs some believing the trinity some not. The WWCOG, SDAs and Jehovahs witnesses are all related from Adventist roots.

  Cog Surviver the Episcopalian church is the sae church as the Anglicans in Australia.

  Some Anglicans are liberal some a very conservative just as every church has a spectrum of opinions.

  If only the people in the JW religion could manipulate a fight they would realise the .

  emperor has no cloths.

  Theres nothing better than a good fight

  SDAs do also have had female Elders for a long time now
