Bible Students and Seventh Day Adventist, Part 5

The Beginning, Part 1 The following comments were posted under Part 4 of our study, Bible Students and Seventh Day Adventist, by Robert Derrick in regards to the following statements: We were reviewing the beliefs of our Seventh Day Adventist friends in regards to The Son of God. The Seventh Day Adventist state: “John, the disciple, says, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with…

We continue with our comparisons of the Seventh Day Adventist beliefs and the Bible Students. We were discussing their belief in The Trinity, first with respects to The Father and presently with regards to The Son. We continue. They continue: “John, the disciple, says, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God” (John 1:1, 2, NKJV). Adventists believe Jesus was co-existent with God from…

Bible Students and Seventh Day Adventist, Part 3

In our previous post we addressed the issue of the Sabbath, and the Seventh Day Adventist belief that it should be observed on Saturday. As stated, Bible Students do not hold to this belief, but believe rather that every day is holy to the Lord, but we also believe that everyone should worship as they believe to be right, as their conscious so dictates. To violate one’s conscious is a sin to the individual. We now would like to take…

We return now to the question posed by one of our forum members, viz. Why didn’t anybody interpret Revelation the way you do before Charles Russel Taze and Ellen G. White came along? The commonalities are astonishing. I realize that the “commonalities” which you are suggesting here are in regards to Revelation specifically, and we will address that issue, but we would also like to mention some of the other beliefs held by our Seventh Day Adventist friends to see…

We present this thread in response to a question asked by one of our forum members (on another Christian forum we frequent) under our study on Revelation, Part 170 Why didn’t anybody interpret Revelation the way you do before Charles Russel Taze and Ellen G. White came along? The commonalities are astonishing. Because prior to Pastor Russell no one had explain the symbolism of Revelation as well as he did, this is key to a correct interpretation of Revelation, and…

Revelation Chapter 13, Part 41

Revelation Chapter 13 VERSE 18 continued “Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.” Once again as stated in our previous post: “Jesus, who gave this revelation to us (Rev 1:1), well knew that this symbol could not be properly understood until about the present time, for the reason that the Image of the Beast (The Evangelical Alliance) was only first made…

Revelation Chapter 13 VERSE 18 continued “Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.” The following we add as an addendum to our study on Verse 18 and the number of the beast as we hope it will prove of further insight. His Number is 666 “Some believe that every word and letter of Scriptures was divinely directed. This has led to…

Revelation Chapter 13 VERSE 18 continued “Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.” The Golden Image There is a direct comparison to be made between the golden image of the Book of Daniel and the image of the beast in the Apocalypse. Image of Beast (Revelation 13:18) 600 (six hundred) 60 (threescore) 6 (six) 666 Image of Gold (Daniel 3:1) Height…

It is a beehive-shaped, somewhat bulging, approximately 15-inch-high headpiece preferentially made of either silver or gold cloth encircled by three coronets, with a mound and cross of gold on top and two loose pendants or streamers…

Revelation Chapter 13 VERSE 18 continued “Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.” The following testimony that the title Vicarius Filii Dei was formerly inscribed on the papal crown was given by the late Elder D. E. Scoles, of Washburn, Mo.: — “‘I have met two men who declare that they have seen this specific crown; and their testimony is so…
