    Yes...

    And Dr. Ben Wilkinson, author of the current KJVO myth's "foundation stone" book, Our Authorized Bible Vindicated, was a close friend of hers. He equated her writings with Scripture.

    And Dr. W is also still held in high esteem by the SDA. The library of their Union College is named after him.

    I used to live in an apartmennt above a Christian Science Reading room. (In the 1960's) Never thought much about it till the staff of a Chinese restaurant next door, took issue with a diner who tried to leave without paying and threw him through the window of the CSRR.

    Dispensationalism is huge in the USA. It is all Fundamentalists and Evangelicals teach. It is not debated.

    The "investigative judgment" doctrine of the SDAs saya that Jesus entered the Holy of Holies in the heavenly temple Oct. 22, 1844 to investigate the lives of everyone who's ever professed belief in Him.

    This doctrine was first taught in Milleriam by Hiram Edson, F. B. Hahn, & O. R. L. Crosier. It was "confirmed" in visions which Ellen G. White claimed to have had, & accepted as "present truth' by the early SDAs, & continues to this day.

    My question: WHERE IS THIS VIEW FOUND IN SCRIPTURE????????????? Without any Scriptural support, this doctrine must be seen as a man-made addition to the commands & precepts of God, & thus sinful and false.

    The SDAs observe what is called "Sabbatarianism", which is an extreme view of observing the Saturday Sabbath, with even salvation depending upon it. This view is the source of the cult's name!

    This view is wrong. First, the Sabbath was given ONLY TO ISRAEL, and we see in Scripture that God didn't punish any gentile for not observing it, unless that gentile was leading Israelis to break it. And we see in old jewish writings that the old Israelis forced the Gibeonites & other gentiles who were their forced servants to perform their labors on the Sabbath, such as animal husbandry, cooking, cleaning, wood-cutting, etc.

    But again, God has never required non-Israelis to observe the Sabbath, In fact, He said, thru Paul, in Col.2:16"Therefore no one is to act as your judge in regard to food or drink or in respect to a festival or a new moon or a Sabbath day"
    (Remember, Paul was writing to gentile Christians in Colossae, a Roman city in present-day Turkey. It was famous for an angel cult.)

    The SDA also falsely asserts Sunday worship is the mark of the beast, a view not found in Scripture whatsoever, & therefore completely-false !

    AND CERTAINLY, JESUS NEVER MADE SABBATH-OBSERVING A CONDITION FOR SALVATION !

    Just a continuation of the fact that SDA "has a FORM of godliness while denying its POWER" !

    Regardless of your religious affiliation, NEVER believe ANY MAN-MADE doctrines or rules of faith/worship ! Instead, let SCRIPTURE, free of any man-made interps, be your guide!

    No WHERE to be found in the scriptures, as the one whom the blood Jesus has cleansed and set free is free indeed! Now therefore there is no NO condemnation comes to mind!

    Sda holds to a conditionally, probationary view of eternal life, as we indeed have that right now, but can forfeit it in the future!

    Here in UK Refored Baptist and reformed Evangelicals do not teach it.Before the end of the 19th century, it was mainly confiened to the Plymouth Brethren here. Outside that sect it was widely considered to be a heresy.

    It is not a denomination, but any church that is Baptist and reformed.of fopr that matter Evangelical and reformed,

    Actually most such churches would not have an issue with a member that disagreed with them , after all it is a matter of interpretation, not biblical doctrine. Our previous chuirch which was an independent Evangelical church had members that were dispie, as well as those who were not, and then there was me.

    Reformed Baptist, not a demonization per say, but more of a belief system held by some Baptists!

    Many Evangelical churches in this country, were once Plymouith Brethren.The is one near here thaty was a Brethren "Gospel Hall" and changed its name to Evangelical Church, and is now a 'Community Church'

    Most General Baptist here, who belong to the Baptist union will believe anything.
