Mike you have a lot of questions, but they go to another topic all together so I posted another topic along those lines (the nature of prophecy and fulfillment and SDA understanding), and resume the topic posted here.

Feel free to copy & paste your prior questions there, but please shorten them as you see fit to not create a lot of redundent posting. Resuming the topic.

What is SOP supposed to do for us ?

Edward,

Great idea. I was working too hard to fit some of my thoughts under the heading of this thread. I do try to stay on task, not an uneasy thing for an ex-hyper active child (and still struggling).

And David,

I'll address the questions you posed here in the new thread Edward created. I'll see you there, okay?

As for this thread I'd like to add my gratitude for Ellen's ministry along with all others posted here. To this day I still consult her writings as I dig deeper and deeper into the rich viens of truth hidden within the sacred pages of Holy Writ. And although I run into frustrating ocassions where her inspired pen runs dry I am never totally left alone because where she is silent I find her pointing me away from herself and to Jesus, the glorious fountain of truth that never runs dry.

Mike
