I'm REALLY tired....

[tsth]

I don't know when you joined RoS, but to me, it seems like the root of the problem began with Ophel who joined probably a couple of months ago...that is when much of the bad behavior began and has since escalated.

I have been watching and noting that this person is the common factor in all of it.

That kinda confirms what I was thinking. If I remember rightly I joined last Xmas and Ophel joined in February. I too have noticed how she seems to be in the thick of things every time. Although to be fair the forum itself was basically a breeding ground waiting for someone to stir it up. When I joined I went through a period (nothing like what's going on right now) where although I tried not to get drawn into bitterness and sniping I felt attacked very, very quickly, and nearly left because of it. However God brought me through.

I'm glad you stayed.  You  have been a blessing to me.

  you posted a video from the PCG which is a church...it is called the Philadelphia church of God...I thought you might be affiliated with that church...they have traveled off the road of grace through Christ  to salvation by works...not good.   That is what brought the question about. lol   

[tsth]

I don't guess I noticed it?  I haven't heard of that church before.

Strangely enough I have heard of them, but don't know that much about what they teach....

 Strangely enough I have heard of them, but don't know that much about what they teach....

they are a splinter group from Worldwide church of God, whose starter was a man called Hebert Armstrong.. a wonderful man in my opinion.

I met Mr. Armstrong a few times and believed he was a true follower of Christ, but there was few he dis-fellowshipped an they started churches.

When Mr. Armstrong died these bought some of his copyrights and started teaching Armstrong but with a slight twist of legalism added.  PCG is one

is one of these splinter groups who teach about Mr. Armstrong as a prophet and  teach bondage in  Christ  in subtle ways... lol

Do you attend SDA as your foundational church?   just curious

Ah if they're a break away from Armstrongs lot no wonder I've heard about them.

Now I've been rumbled! Yes I am an SDA, although not everything I teach is official SDA doctrine which is why I don't bleat about being SDA (as well as other reasons )

I hope that won't put anyone off

Nope, you're being SDA doctrine is fine,   I attended SDA in Keene, Tx back in the 80's.   I love God's people where ever he has placed them. I'm  thankful to have the grace extended to me to visit all denominations to understand them and enjoy fellowship with God's people all over the world.
There are many parts of the body as God has placed his people and they all serve his purpose.

May I share a little about myself so you will understand me a little better when I say the things I do about other churches ?

I am have been studying the God's word without doctrines,  which come through denominations, for about 30 yrs.  Our Lord has extended the grace to me to attend just about every denominational church established, making friends and having fellowship with the body of Christ in every church.

I love the brotherhood of believers and maintain long term friendships through out the world.  I come from a different perspective in the Lord's word as you have seen, it is not within the teachings of SDA or Protestantism, or Catholic, etc.

In my study's of the bible and churches, my husband and I have two different understandings  he is going to heaven, and I'm staying on earth..lol  It always makes me laugh, because he is a retired from Motion picture, which I don't know if any of you have noticed but the man I am hugging in my picture on CF is Adam Arkin...that is who I am with...

Now you know a little more about me......you'll laugh when you see that is Adam I am hugging.....lol

I had to re-read your post, me2lord...I thought you were saying that Adam Arkin was your husband.

 

I was confused.

No,  Adam is not my husband,   I was his driver on the show "Hanging Up"  and my husband worked on Chicago Hope with him for 3 yrs...we are just friends with him...  I am a retired teamster for the L.399 motion picture industry.  My job was driving the actors and actresses on movies being made... and made many friends in the industry. My husband worked in it for 30 yrs and holds a doctorate in Law.  And we are retired. lol

I'm not sure there's many people who she hasn't had a run in with at some point. However slowly over time I have seen her theology come out, and personally I can say I'm beginning to see some of her problems....

[dgbygrace]

I don't have too many problems with her doctrine...what I do have problems with is her aborrant way of treating people...and her absolute refusal to see that she is either the one who starts the problem or she has treated people WAY worse than they do to her.
