Ha Ha Richard. Very funny. It's just some of the fictional interpretations that I am opposed to. Ok, I am willing to be taught. Show me how you interpret what she says here differently: The change from earth to heaven will not change men's character; the happiness of the redeemed in heaven results from the character formed in this life after the image of Christ. The saints in heaven will first have been saints on earth. {Mar 326} Only those will enter heaven who in probationary time have formed a character that breathes a heavenly influence. The saint in heaven must first be a saint upon earth. {CG 481}

you can take your character to heaven if you want. But I don't plan on taking mine. I plan on having mine changed into the likeness of Jesus's character.
{Mar 326} Only those will enter heaven who in probationary time have formed a character that breathes a heavenly influence. The saint in heaven must first be a saint upon earth. {CG 481} Once again The prophet shows Redwoods professed understanding of salvation to be not only erronious, but lethal. Here we go again. The two theological ideology camps at war. EGW said this; the Bible says this; but EGW says this; but the Bible says this.

the lower the stage a person is at spiritually, the harder it is for them to see what another is saying, hence the mudslinging. if they could get past their limited understanding to see what is being said instead of what they believe is being said....
on the other hand there will be disagreements, but it really does not have to be as bad as some make it.
hard to live with, i know. as if that isnt bad enough, i break and start swinging myself. :(

Here we go again. The two theological ideology camps at war. EGW said this; the Bible says this; but EGW says this; but the Bible says this. Yes. How true. But it wouldn't be necessary if the others would check out the context when interpreting EGW and scripture. If they did that ... they would believe as I believe !! Ha Ha.

That just means you are at a low stage spiritually. According to your own reasoning.

I like sci fi because it takes the imagination beyond its normal limits. Crime and murder mysteries are so oppressive, but some sci fi is also filled with war and bloodshed, a subject so many enjoy. Sci fi can take us to the past and the future, and across the universe in a flash. I no longer read it, but occasionally when I do watch a decent sci fi movie, I sometimes see things with Biblical possibilities.
If we don't read Biblical accounts of the Last Days with a sci fi eye, we may be in for a terrible shock when the time is upon us and we are unprepared for the earth-shaking sky-ripping battle scenes before us.

Once again The prophet shows Redwoods professed understanding of salvation to be not only erronious, but lethal. It would really be nice if people would quite abusing the dear lady by taking her out of context.  Wouldn't it be wonderful if humans could find the 'rightness' in others instead of assuming they, them selves, are the right nones. We get to heaven on the merits of Christ, He is a Saint, we are Saints. That is what God sees.
