A new article from my blog that God's encouraging me to re-engage with. This time I look at all 13 SDA Baptismal Vow questions and compare them to the questions asked at me Re-Baptism in 2005. https://undercoveradventist2.wordpress.com/2020/09/16/baptism-a-look-at-sda-and-christian-baptismal-vows/ |

Wow! Number 6 in their list struck me as especially ridiculous, since it's so obvious the Ten Commandments is part of the covenant given to Israel - Deuteronomy 4:13; and that that covenant wasn't given to their forefathers - Deut. 5:2-3. Then when God later promised a New Covenant in Jeremiah 31:31-32, which came in at Jesus' death and the SDA church doesn't even bother to read the new covenant [New Testament] to see what's in it, but blindly follows Ellen White's embracing of the old one; I think "what a stupid religion!" And I feel like an idiot for believing it for over 50 years! |

Yes and 2 Corinthians 3:7 says: "But if the MINISTRY OF DEATH, written and engraved on stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not look steadily at the face of Moses because of the glory of his countenance, which glory was passing away" - so if they would PRAYERFULLY read all the verses that contrast the old and new covenants, their eyes would be opened! (I think a lot of the ordinary people in the pews think that since the pastors teach it, it must be true. The pastors probably think (once they learn the truth); "if I can just make it to retirement, then I can disavow that religion! If I leave now, I'll lose my retirement and I'm too old to find another career!" In fact, many pastors advised Dale Ratzlaff to just go along with what the general conference was demanding. (Pastor Ratzlaff had told them that he couldn't in good conscience preach the IJ.) |
