DAVEH:   Hmmmmmm......I am rather surprised you would feel that way, Brother Glenn.  Does not such an attitude have the appearance of contradicting the words of our Lord in John 14:15, where he said....... "If ye love me, keep my commandments." ........Surely your failure to observe the Sabbath does not reflect your lack of love for our Savior?!?!?!?!  Yes, indeed.  THE SABBATH HAS NO MEANING TO ME.  I will just line up with Jesus Christ on this one.  7th Day Adventists are a spiritually sick and miserable religion.  Condemn me and you are aligning with those who condemned Jesus. DAVEH:  I hope you don't think I am condemning you for this, Glenn.  FWIW, I'll leave the judgment of your soul to our Lord.  But I am curious as to what you might say to Jesus when he asks you why you are proud of transgressing the Sabbath.  I've got to tell you that I've transgressed enough on my own that I won't be comfortable sitting on the hot seat at that (judgment) time, but I'd really be reluctant to feel comfortable bragging about my about my pride in such. Yes, indeed, I rejoice in your condemnations. There is a major problem with mixing grace and works with salvation (even while claiming not to do so) it makes faith something to be measured by loyalty to creeds and dogmas, not to fidelity to Jesus as Lord. My faith is personal rather than doctrinal -- CENTERED IN THE PERSON OF CHRIST.  My faithfulness cannot be measure by loyalty to creeds and dogmas.  I BOW TO JESUS CHRIST AND NONE OTHER. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dave Hansen [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.langlitz.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
