Typical of SDA apologetics. The question asked should be, 'Have you read the Bible yet?' His answer is, 'Yes, I have. That is the reason I am NOT SDA."

Unfortunately, our committed Adventist apologist cannot explain how it was impossible for Sister White, who was a proven unrepentant liar. -

Are you thinking of things like going from Methodist to Millerite to Adventist? -
Paul was the one who wrote quite a bit of those NT statements, yes?
Well, do you also fault Paul?
Php_3:12 Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus.
What was Paul aiming for? Perfection (as it is in Christ Jesus). He says so right in the verse itself.
So, yes it is entirely possible, as Christ Jesus set the example for us, that we should follow after in His strength, that He provided at Calvary:
Rev 12:10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.If you are focusing on church members, that is the wrong goal, as the Goal is Christ Jesus, not sister White, Paul, myself or any other of mankind. Yet, even so, there is a group that shall indeed be victorious over all things, as it is written:
Rom 5:6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.
Php_4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
Rev_3:21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
It is promised:
Rev 14:4 These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.We preach a victorious Christ, a victorious Gospel, a victorious people (in Him, by Him), and not merely in theory, but in truth, as it is written:
Rev 14:5 And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God.
Rev 14:12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
Rom_5:19 For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.They which are prophesied will have ceased from sin (by Him), for in Him is no sin. So as the Head does not sin, the body too follows the will of the Head.
We press onward toward that goal by grace through faith, for God is able to keep us from falling and to present us faultless.
I believe this, though I do not yet see it by sight, but know it by faith, for God has promised and God cannot lie. His word is Truth. His strength Almighty. Christ Jesus is both. -

Unrepentant perish.
"except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish" (Jesus, Luke 13:5).
Liars are exempted from the Holy City.
And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life (Rev. 21:27).
Sister White is a false prophet. False prophets are blind to truth. Those who follow false prophets will perish likewise.
if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch (Jesus, Matthew 15:14).
Paul never claimed to be perfect. Read Romans 7. Neither did he lie.
You and your Adventist cult members best get your priorities straight.
Who will it be......SDA or Jesus Christ? -

God says, "My grace is sufficient for thee..."
As for matters of loss, please see the previous examples given of King Saul (OT) and Ananias and Sapphira (NT) to begin with. -
You may keep the dross you call 'gold', but know that it is of no value in the sight of heaven. -
Mat_7:2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
1Jn_2:4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
.
Pro_23:27 For a whore is a deep ditch; and a strange woman is a narrow pit.
Rev 17:1 And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:
Rev 17:2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.
Thus all her doctrines, such as 'sunday sacredness', 'immortal soul/spirit theology', 'eternal torment', 'michael as creature', 'Jesus' flesh nature was unfallen', 'alcohol', and so many other things (amazing how many things are now professed as 'Baptist' these days, when all the while they are most assuredly 'Roman Catholic' (an they know it)).
This is the condition of a Laodicean (see Revelation 3:17).
"O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. ..." (vs. 24-25)
