Christian,
If you read far enough it also states that people who are followers can only go as far as their leader, talking of the preachers. So therefore they should know that they will be accountable to leading the people in the ways of the world. I learned very young to be your own individual self and not follow but let God lead your thinking and still we make mistakes by emotional situations. The times I am angry over all this is my thinking! Guess I still need the Lord to help me. It is a shame and that is why you have the protection of 3abn by the "money pit". This life has been sad because my thoughts were always of Jesus and what he taught. and yet we left the creeps that hide under the SDA cloak creep in and take what was given to us in the first place and using our trust in the SDA name sort of thing. It has been a test for sure. and why did we expect the individuals from the church to come to our aid when we gave aid I'll never know. Even now there is enough Intelligence in the SDA church that still could have helped us in the fraud situation that finalized the ending of taking all we owned by political agendas. We approached several and still no Samaritan for us that would even think of suggestion for help.
There was a SDA attorney that is now in California that only sent us to a worldly one and he took our money and it happened to be one for the opposite side. (laugh). What help! We even asked one great man of whom we all know of if he would have any suggestions on who we might contact for some advise but only got back an answer that we were possibly asking him and he could not help and. that was not so . We thought he just might know of someone who we could get advise or help from. Now we find he is a millionaire. (Laugh) with our assets,so were we at one time)
Eating pork would be like eating snake meat to me as I never have eaten it but to people that are trying to get away from eating it.......how much of an idiot preacher do these people put up with. I know the feeling of despair to watch the people follow off into the abyss setting in the pews listening to sermons to tickle their ears. Now I see Hope Channel following suit for outside people. Not setting example for what we long ago believed but now for the New age agenda and to please the world.
My struggle is to know all injustice done to people and feel their pain. I get angry. I want to fight back for the benefit of what is right but in my older age now, I see finality coming and still want people to turn around as My imagination of horror to the loss of eternity is very overwhelming at the discovery of tooo late to see. I am constantly worried over my own salvation and imperfections as the more I see Jesus the more sin I think I have. Sometimes you feel rejection at the trials. Sorta somewhat I suppose like Jesus felt at the feeling of separation of the Father at the Crucifixion. Our Savior endured the ultimate. But we are human and when it hurts love that was a gift of your life an total suffering it seems overwhelming. Could this be a reason why some people reject "Love" ?? Just a thought!
And for added thought, someone just sent me this article and hope i am not doing wrong by showing this but here it is just to let people see how really close things are. I remember reading a book called "Sunlight" and now this looks like reality happening.

Dear Friend of Liberty,
Unbelievably, Congress and the Obama administration are currently trying to resurrect the failed REAL ID Act, more accurately named “Dangerous ID.”
Dangerous ID, which passed in 2005, establishes a de facto National Identification System, and opens the doors for Federal biometric tracking of every American citizen.
Fortunately, no state currently complies with the burdensome mandates of the 2005 bill, and twenty-three have passed legislation refusing compliance.
So what does the Obama Administration want to do?
You guessed it: “Fix it,” and ram it down states’ throats.
Well, I say “Repeal it.” What do you say?
You see, as Obama Administration Surveillance Czar Janet Napolitano pushes for a revamp of the system to get the invasive federal program up and running, there has never been a better time to for us to push back, and fight for an outright repeal of the original legislation.
And although Dangerous ID is a clear attempt to establish a National ID System, the reality might be much worse -- an INTERNATIONAL Identification System. That’s why it is so critical we get that law off the books.
You see, Dangerous ID actually requires that driver’s license photographs meet United Nation’s biometric format standards. At this level of sophistication, government software can analyze facial characteristics and generate a unique identification number.
Think about that for a moment -- your identity will be reduced to a single number in an international database that can be tracked globally by one-world government surveillance cameras and facial recognition software.
Last month, Senator Daniel Akaka introduced The PASS ID Act to tweak the 2005 Dangerous ID legislation and ram this program into action over state opposition.
Supporters claim this REAL ID Redux bill softens requirements on states, supposedly making the breach of federalism a little more palatable. But it is merely a transparent attempt to get the Dangerous ID system implemented in any form, only to be augmented later to meet government’s needs.
In fact, there is evidence that this reincarnated Dangerous ID bill could wind up being worse than the original.
Chief among the bill’s supporters is Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano, who stands to wield expansive and virtually unchecked power to set standards.
Under Dangerous ID, Napolitano can unilaterally expand required information on driver's licenses, potentially to include biometric information such as retinal scans, fingerprints, DNA information, and even Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) radio tracking technology.
If international databases, RFID and biometric identification cards, and constant government surveillance are as alarming to you as they are to me, I hope you’ll click here to sign Campaign for Liberty’s petition to stop REAL ID Redux and repeal Dangerous ID.
This is an important battle, and one we CAN win.
Just look at all the success stories in states that opted out of the Dangerous ID system. In many cases, local C4L groups were instrumental in passing that legislation.
If REAL ID Redux passes, the new federal “concessions” may sucker many states into compliance.
That’s why it is so important that we defeat this reincarnation of Dangerous ID at the federal level, and take advantage of this national conversation to repeal the original bill.
So please, click here to sign the petition urging your Senators and Representative to stop this so-called “PASS ID” and finally repeal the original Dangerous ID legislation.
And please, make a generous contribution to help Campaign for Liberty spread the word about this important fight.
In Liberty,
John F. Tate
President
P.S. REAL ID (a.k.a. “Dangerous ID”) is back on the move with a revamped version called PASS ID.
To stop this move toward a National and International database and biometric ID Card, click here to sign the petition urging Congress to stop REAL ID Redux and finally repeal Dangerous ID.
