ADVENTISM'S THREE ANGELS MESSAGES: A FALSE GOSPEL



Introduction

The Three Angels' messages of Revelation 14 are highly significant to the Seventh-day Adventist Church. In the SDA Church's official mission statement, the Three Angels' Messages are prominent. The following statement was voted by the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists Executive Committee at the Annual Council Session in Silver Spring, Maryland on October 13, 2014:

IS THE SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH REALLY THE REMNANT CHURCH?

 



In brief, Seventh-day Advenstist…

  • Teach the SDA Church is the remnant church of Revelation
  • The first “proof” of their identity is their keeping of the Fourth Commandment of the Old Covenant
  • The second “proof” of their identity is the prophetess Ellen White

ALLEGED FALLACIES OF RONALD OBIDOS on 1844 INVESTIGATIVE JUDGMENT REFUTED! Part 2



This blog is about the sharing of ideas about the SDA Sanctuary doctrine between me and my friend, Jonathan Espina, a fellow Adventist defender. For me, bro. Espina deserves the title "defender" for his capacity and capability to address the real SDA issues at a higher level. He owns volumes of theological references and SDA resources. I find no difficulty in dealing with his reasoning for we share the same rhythm and enthusiasm. 

JONATHAN ESPINA:

Dear SDA readers: Please bear with me for this article is quite long because I have quoted verbatim our Church’s response to the issue I will discuss today. As you can see Ronald Obidos issue is not new to us. He just recycled it. Please read on. Thanks.

"WALA NA BA TALAGANG MAPUNTAHANG IBANG CHURCH?"


TANONG:

Kung may mga kakilala ka ngang ganito at nanatili pa rin sila sa SDA church, hindi mo ba naisip na BAKA ang dahilan, kahit alam nilang may mga doktrina silang hindi sinasang ayunan, ay wala na rin silang mapuntahang ibang church na nagtuturo ng mga aral na mas higit na malapit sa Biblia?

"WITHIN THE VEIL" IN HEBREWS 6:19, 20: MOST HOLY PLACE OR NOT?


Hebrews 6:19-20 (NIV)
“We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It ENTERS THE INNER SANCTUARY BEHIND THE CURTAIN, where our forerunner, JESUS, HAS ENTERED on our behalf. He has become a HIGH PRIEST forever, in the order of Melchizedek.”

Seventh-day Adventist Problem

“Seventh-day Adventists believe that Christ, at His ascension, began His high priestly ministry in the heavenly sanctuary. They see two phases to that ministry, corresponding to the two phases of the Levitical ministry: the daily and yearly services. Christ‘s daily ministry began at His ascension when He entered the Holy Place of the sanctuary above to intercede for sinners; His yearly ministry began in 1844 when He entered the Most Holy Place above to begin the work of the investigative judgment.” But the writer of Hebrews describes Jesus entering the Most Holy Place at His ascension! [Desmond Ford, Daniel 8:14. Day of Atonement and the Investigative Judgment, 82]

"NAGTAMPO KA LANG BROD KAYA KA UMALIS SA SDA CHURCH..."

 “Nagtampo ka lang brod kaya ka umalis sa SDA church, patawarin mo na lang sila at bumalik ka na sa SDA church.” 

   Ito ang mga pangungusap na paulit-ulit na nababasa ko sa mga social media messages. Ito ay kailangan kong bigyan ng pansin dahil ito ay ginagamit ng Kaaway na bihasa sa pagbulag ng pag-iisip ng mga tao upang ang "kaliwanagan ng ebanghelio" ay hindi makarating sa kanila (2 Cor. 4:4). Hanggang ngayon marami pa din akong mga kababayan at mga kaibigan ang nagulat at hindi makapaniwala sa aking naging desisyon na iwanan ang Seventh-day Adventist church na aking kinaaniban at pinagtanggol sa loob ng 24 years.

RESPONSE TO A THINKING ADVENTIST ON ACTS 2:17 & THE GIFT OF PROPHECY




This question is just part of a long list of queries from my Adventist friend Butz Rodelas. It also took me a long time to answer and I thought I would gradually post these questions to keep the readers from being bored because of their length. Later I will also publish the full version in an e-book format that anyone can download. Butz Rodelas’ questions are interesting and challenging, the kind of question that I waited for a long time, so I prefer to have my answers detailed and well documented for the benefit of those who are Adventist thinkers who have passion for truth. Let’s begin with his question about the gift of prophecy in the Christian church.

#1. BUTZ RODELAS:
And in addition act 2:17 says “And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your young men shall see visions, Your old men shall dream dreams.” So if this is the case then how can Jesus be the last prophet if a prophet is being the spokesperson of God? Are you saying that NOBODY after Jesus will become the spokesperson of God? Are you limiting God’s power to use people after Jesus time to become His spokesperson?

A SHORT Q&A SESSION WITH AN ASPIRING ADVENTIST DEFENDER: "THE TRUE CHURCH" (PART 3)


Ang pinakatampok na tanong na pinagtuunan ko ng pansin dito ay tungkol sa maling konsepto ng “true church” na pinaniniwalaan ng mga Sabadista. Ang kanilang konsepto ng “true church” ay minana nila sa Roman Catholic Church, na palagi naman nilang binabatikos. Hanggang sa bumangon Protestant Reformation noong 16th century, ang karaniwang tanggap na paniwala noon ay ang “true church” ay nag-iisa lamang at ito ay walang iba kundi ang nakikitang iglesia (visible church) ng Roman Catholic church na nasa Vatican city. Hinamon ng mga Protestante ang idea na ang “true church” o universal church ay hindi tumutukoy sa “visible church/local church” ng Roman Catholic institution, kundi sa “invisible church” o mga mananampalataya na matatagpuan mula sa iba’t-ibang dako, sa alinmang panahon na tanging Diyos lamang ang nakakaalam kung sino sila (2 Tim. 2:19).

A SHORT Q&A SESSION WITH AN ASPIRING ADVENTIST DEFENDER: "ELLEN WHITE" (Part 1)


This is my response to one of the many aspiring SDA defenders. For the sake of the truth, I find time to write this article in an easy Q&A format.

#1. DREEVANT:

Here’s my QUICK response.

  1. DOCTOR Obidos quoted biblical reference proving that Jesus was a Prophet and ADVENTISTS have no problem with that, He even quoted Mrs. White’s writings BUT DOCTOR Obidos In his previous article clearly said that Mrs. White was a FALSE prophet, does it mean that DOCTOR Obidos does not believe that all the writings of Mrs. White are false? DOCTOR Obidos was in AGREEMENT of Mrs. White’s writings concerning Jesus as a prophet! Is DOCTOR Obidos doing a cherry picking when it comes to the writings of Mrs. White?

A SHORT Q&A SESSION WITH AN ASPIRING ADVENTIST DEFENDER: "CCF vs. SDA ON SALVATION" (Part 2)

DREEVANT:

But CCF is right? CCF who asks tithes from its members yet teaching their members also that the 10 commandments has been done away. I’ll just post my QUICK answer because the last time.i remember DOCTOR obidos blocked me immediately after rebutting his answer on the topic that the sabbath in exodus 20:8-11 is not Saturday posted in his founded FELLOWSHIP, the “former adventist fellowship”So there might be some points he stated that I might miss to response.

OBIDOS:

CCF didn’t claim anything that their church alone is the true church. The SDA concept of the church is distorted and inherited from the Roman Catholic church who alone believes that the true church applies to the visible church no the invisible/universal church. They are not bragging or proud of the glory of their organization, unlike the SDAs who always proud of their corrupted organization.

"NANDITO NA TAYO SA TUNAY SAAN KA PA PUPUNTA ? - ISANG PAGLILINAW"

May trending video sa FB mula sa nagpapakilalang SDA Bible Missionary kung saan sinabi ko na ang SDA church lamang ang tunay na iglesia at wala ng iba. Noong ako ay mangangaral pa sa SDA, palagi ko sinasabi na “mas mapalad ang ibang religion kaysa sa mga Adventist, dahil kapag umalis sila sa kanilang mga iglesia ay mayroon pa silang malilipatan na totoo, ang Seventh-day Adventist church! Samantalang tayong mga Adventist kapag umalis pa sa ating iglesia wala na tayong malilipatan pa kundi impierno!” Ito ay madalas ginagamit ngayon laban sa akin ng mga Adventists mula ng umalis ako sa kanilang denomination noong September 12, 2019.

Ngunit ano nga ba an masasabi ko tungkol sa pahayag kong ito? Ito ba ay isang mabisang sandata upang gamitin sa akin ngayon na hindi na ako Adventist?

CHRIST COMMISION FELLOWSHIP (CCF) & THE TRUE MEANING OF THE SABBATH


His challenge reminds me of what Jesus said:

Matthew 7:3 (NIV)
“Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?”

This brother is so fanatically blinded without even knowing what he is doing. He looks at the speck of sawdust in my eye but he pays no attention to the plank (troso) in his eye. He breaks the 9th commandment in the first place, without him noticing it due to his blindness.
