      Pastors have repacked Christ and became the Antichrist. Church is a cult and church members worship their pastors who were appointed by devil to lead believers astray. Pastors are the self proclaimed dictators who maintain the order in their demonic church kingdom by excommunicating prophets, so that no one will turn to God. Pastors are the false prophets who lie at the pulpit. Church members are led astray by the false prophet. Your churches are of devil.

    I was raised Catholic...never was encourage to read the word. Ever time i went to confession to confess my sin to a sinful being like me, i told him the same sin i committed the week before. I was required to repeat Hail Marys...but never had a change of heart. I joined a Pentecostal church for so many years...saw many jump too much and others fall on the floor when they got smacked on the forehead, but never had a change of heart. The Lord lead me to the Adventist church, they gave me bible studies and encouraged me to study the word on a daily basis, guided me, taught me, spirit filled messages with many scriptures to back up the message. Will the Adventist church save me? No! The changed heart and personal relationship with God will. I still attend the church. Praise God! Thank you pastor Doug! 🙏

    I joined the SDA church years ago AFTER FURIOUSLY TRYING AND FAILING to figure out how to get out of keeping the Sabbath, and thus, keep my job I'd had for several years.
    I ended up losing my job because of refusing to work on the Sabbath but won an Arbitration hearing two years later. The corporation had to rehire me, pay me for two years lost wages, benefits, retirement, etc., plus they ended up promoting me, gave me a raise, and a new position in a different department which doesn't work on Saturdays. That was 2008, and I just had my 25th work anniversary. They tried to mess with my Sabbath over the years, but I always stood strong and they always backed down.
    Did I know all this would happen before they fired me? Nope. That's how God works. Our job is to step into the Red Sea and His job it to part the water for us.

    I was raised a Roman Catholic. In my early 20’s, I was introduced to the SDA church by a customer that brought shoes from the store I worked at, but refused to come and purchase them from Friday sunset to Saturday sunset. I pushed her to explain why she refused to buy or sell, during Sabbath! She invited me to a Revelation seminar about Bible prophecy the she was playing the Oregon for. I attended the entire seminar and the rest as they say, is history!

      Just to clean up my previous typos; The young lady I helped to order a pair of shoes for refused to come in on Friday evening when the shipment arrived. I pressed her as to why she would not pay until anytime after sunset Saturday. She was hesitant to explain but on my further insistence she informed me that she does not buy or sell on the Sabbath Day! I informed her that I had heard of “ Black Sabbath” but never heard of a Sabbath Day! She said that was unfortunate, and said I should know about “The Sabbath”! She then insisted that I attend the Revelation of Bible prophecy seminar that she was the piano/organ player for. I agreed to go out of curiosity and ended up attending all 15 messages!

    I was born a Lutheran, then exploring Pentacostal, Charismatic and anything in between. Prior to Y2K, I started to get interested in end time topics. Attended two end times seminars from two different churches, didn't get much detail at all. The preachers said most of Revelation chapters was slated for the future, so don't worry about the beast, the mark of the beast, etc. That left many big questions UNANSWERED! Then one day, I was given a Bible study guide from a relative. I was struck. Everything was explained in the Bible after all!! Through Adventist church I was taught to let the Bible interpret for itself....to compare verse with verses...here a little, there a little....both from the Old and New Testaments.
    Using that principles, I believe the Bible is very clear who the beast is, what the mark of the beast is, who the Babylon is....

      When he was quoting Colossians, He stopped short of reading Colossians 2:16, which is what the other fella was talking about. He should also have mentioned Gal 4:9, Romans 14, And Heb chapter 4. Every Christian who is resting on the finished work of Christ for His salvation, will experience a Sabbath life, not just the keeping of a day. The writer of Hebrews explains this in saying "There remains therefore a rest for the people of God". Stop trying to earn salvation, and rest on the finished work of Christ, and you wont just have the Sabbath shadow, but you will have the sustance which is, Christ and His salvation. ( Colossians 2:16 )
      I would like to ask SDA this, on what day do you take your tithe to your church ? of course you will answer on the Sabbath, but my friend you are taking it on the wrong day. The bible says in 1 corinthians 16:2 that it should be brought on the first day of the week, the day on which the Church gathered together to celebrate the resurrection.

    I'm not Adventist, but I went to school at the Adventist schools and attended the churches for many years singing and ministering in them as a Pentecostal who loved God deeply. In 2020 the Lord arrested my heart and told me I needed to keep the Sabbath holy.
    What I didn't realise was that there was a mass migration of Sunday worshippers heading back to Sabbath keeping.
    What is more is that about a year ago, I had a dream where I saw many other denominations of Christianity and God said to me in the dream that of all of them, He was most pleased with the SDA church. I was troubled for a while but I soon thought about it and realised just why.
    No denomination is perfect, but I do believe Adventist are the most Biblical of them all and that makes them real Christians. I attend a local Adventist church now along with my Nazarene church.

    Although I am not affiliated with the Seventh Day Adventist Church, I in no way find them to be the slightest bit cult like.
    I actually admire their work in teaching the gospel. I do believe that the original and only sabbath is on the 7th day and if that indeed was actually what we know as Saturday today then yes Saturday is the sabbath.
    It is my opinion that if you are a Holy-Bible-Based Church and you have faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and teach his gospel then you are a Christian Church period. We may not 100% agree on every interpretation but we are Christians. We need to start practicing what was preached.
    That requires that FELLOW CHRISTIANS STOP ARGUING WITH EACH OTHER. That is doing the bidding of Lucifer. Fight against him in the name of Jesus not agains ourselves!
    All too often I see Christians insulting/attacking other Christians. Why are we arguing with and attacking the saved?
    We should all be supportive of anyone and everyone who supports and defends the Holy Scriptures in the Holy Bible from Genesis to Revelation. To me those Christians who slander others are not doing so under the words of Jesus Christ but actually are doing the work of the devil while he is laughing.
    I admire Doug Batchelor and Mark Fox of Amazing Prophecies, JD Farag, and enjoy scripture from Lion of Judah who make short scripture based videos to inspire us as Christians. So please stop fighting each other and instead support each other in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.
    Thank you Pastor Doug for sharing the good word. God Bless you all.

      @Hi person reading this You are precisely the type that I was talking about.
      It is not for you "a common man" to decide who enters the kingdom of heaven (who is saved and who is not)
      Should we listen to you a person with a name chosen to hide behind while you cast stones at those of which you do not agree with, or do we listen to what Jesus told us we need to do to be saved.
      I have followed the instructions of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior so indeed I am his and you cannot change that for me or anyone.
      Your false accusations of things that you have little knowledge is false doctrine. Do you troll LDS, JW, Apostolic and other different branches who have differing interpretation of scripture than you or just here?
      You are precisely who my comment is about.
      I will not be responding to any further comments from you as my faith in Jesus is not up for debate.
      Great advice for everyone is:
      `You don’t have to attend every argument to which you are invited’
      Pray about it & have a blessed day.

      As the Sadducee and Pharisee liked to be seen of their own as being religious, righteous and knowledgeable of the laws and traditions. Jesus said that they were more concerned with keeping the ceremonies and traditions to be seen of men than to actually live a righteous life before God. Always search the word of God. This debate has been a stumbling block to a lot of young people wanting to follow Jesus. Satan using thoughts as if they can’t decide what day is a Holy Day how will I.

      I was raised Catholic,10 years in Catholic schools even. I thought Sunday was the Sabbath, and wondered why calendars had it as the first day of the week! I was atheist several years as teenager to about twenty. When I actually started reading the Bible, I could see no correlation to Catholicism there. It was still many years later before I realized the Sabbath truth because preachers are trained to argue against it so well.
      This is why we are to read on our own, not blindly accept what 'teachers' tell us to believe. I think watering down the Bible is why preachers are arguing for gay marriage, abortion, and other things labeled abominations in the Bible. I'm not good with words, so I'll stop here.

As a member, could I study the Bible alone and not be required to incorporate the EGW materials your denomination provides at every gathering? I know the answer but many do not nor did you touch on that in this video. Knowing YHWH doesn't need Ellen's/man's help, I rely solely on Him and Him alone and can't support a denomination that doesn't support that.
      And the sabbath being changed to Sunday was NOT "based on a myth" like he states here. History clearly shows it was an intentional move by satan through Constantine to manipulate us into sun god worship aka satan himself.

    Amen 🙏 I was raised Catholic, became an atheist and when I was really searching for the truth, I found it in the Bible and realized that Adventists truly were the only denomination that have their teaching based on the Bible. I believe that many of our brothers and sisters from other denominations are coming to the truth but also many from our denomination are going away from the truth and transforming the truth.

      😂😂😂Interesting....Where in the Bible did you find the truth when the Bible you were searching says *THE CATHOLIC CHURCH IS THE CHURCH OF THE LIVING GOD, THE PILLAR AND FOUNDATION OF THE TRUTH.*
      1 Timothy 3:15
      New International Version
      15 if I am delayed, you will know how people ought to conduct themselves in God’s household, *which is the church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of the truth.*
      It's a common path that most ex-Catholics took to leave the Church. It's NOT because the Church is wrong...it's because people don't understand the teachings of Christ that was passed down from the Apostles 2000 years ago.

God said in Jeremiah, I knew you when you were in the womb. God created those babies and SDA doctors and nurses kill them for money. Very strange coming from a people that supposedly adhere to the 10 commandments ! !

So let us regularly rebuke the enemy and request the holy spirit to clarify for us.

    I remember a few years ago, I was scrolling through youtube, just a casual scroll, and with just one scroll down, I saw a video titled what is the mark of the beast. I was curious, I watched it but it did not make that much sense to me. Then the next day I was scrolling through youtube again, I saw a video with the same title, I watched it to compare with the one I watched the day before. Only this time, everything was explained in full detail, I then watched all of his uploads and how he made them all so understandable. This led me to Amazing Facts, then to Hope Through Prophecy. I subscribed to both. I can not remember how long after I was waking up one morning, I was in the state of sleep and awake, Whilst I was in this state I heard a voice that sed 2nd Timothy chapter 2. I never fully read the bible or knew all the books, but I knew there was a book called Timothy but not and second book of the same name. The first thing I did was look at the bible to see if there was a 2nd Timothy, and there was from that moment I believe these was my calling and I have been as SDA ever since. This is all thanks to Bible Flock Box, Amazing Facts, Hooe Through Prophecy for showing me the truth and giving me the inspiration and helping me with my faith in our beloved Lord. God bless you all.

Then in 2016 His spirit took me back to a small community in Central Australia where my families were, then I saw a new shed besides the road coming into the community, I've asked my older brother about that she'd and then said as we were driving pass the shed he said, That's our new church, it's a Saturday church The Seventh Day Adventist Church.

Their teachings brought me closer to God and I have nothing negative to say about those precious souls who brought me closer to God. They showed me what commitment means. When you see people knocking door to door in all kinds of weather it will most likely be those two denominations. I love their commitment. However, I was still searching for more, so He lead me to the Seventh-Day Adventist church. I'm still an SDA.

      King James Version
      19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: THIS was telling what to do and the three you see here are titles but what is the name? The almighty creator has many titles I just used one, The FATHER- our father the creator of all things who is in heaven - THE SON- also God manifest in the vessel which is the flesh of the messiah to leave an example of what is required of us to make it into heaven, THE HOLY SPIRIT- God is a spirit but what kind of spirit is he? HE IS A HOLY SPIRIT John 4:24
      24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy. I am a brother , also a son, i am also a husband not yet a father these are all titles that i took on based on different scenarios or responsibilities BUT WHAT IS MY NAME? YOU EITHER SAY Lord jesus or JESUS Christ
      This is an extract when GOD THE ALMIGHTY CREATOR STOPPED PAUL WHO WAS SAUL then in his tracks of fighting against the Message you will notice he stated his name to paul. I AM JESUS
      And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven:
      4 And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
      5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.
      6 And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.
      IF YOUR PASTOR SAID THE WORDS I BAPTISE YOU IN THE NAME OF FATHER SON AND HOLY GHOST YOU ARE NOT BAPTISED CORRECTLY AND THE SCRIPTURES SAYS ONE BAPTISM. The trinity has cause people to see father son and holy ghost and the devil used it to deceive many

      Read in the OT what God (who never changes) expected of the stranger/ Gentile who believed in Israel's God.
      ONE LAW FOR ISRAEL and GENTILE:
      **Exodus 20:10 says, But the seventh day [is] the sabbath of the LORD thy God: [in it] thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor THY STRANGER that [is] within thy gates:
      ** Leviticus 24:22 Ye shall have one manner of law, as well for the stranger, as for one of your own country: for I [am] the LORD your God.
      ** Numbers 15:16 One law and one manner shall be for you, and for the stranger that sojourneth with you.
      15:29 Ye shall have one law for him that sinneth through ignorance, [both for] him that is born among the children of Israel, and for the stranger that sojourneth among them.
      ** Genesis 17:12 And he that is eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every man child in your generations, he that is born in the house, or bought with money of any stranger, which [is] not of thy seed.
      17:13 He that is born in thy house, and he that is bought with thy money, must needs be circumcised: and my covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.
      ** Exodus 12:48 And when a stranger shall sojourn with thee, and will keep the passover to the LORD, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land: for no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof.
      12:49 One law shall be to him that is homeborn, and unto the stranger that sojourneth among you.
      20:10 But the seventh day [is] the sabbath of the LORD thy God: [in it] thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor THY STRANGER that [is] within thy gates:

      56:5 Even unto them will I give in mine house and within my walls a place and a name better than of sons and of daughters: I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.
      56:6 Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the LORD, to serve him, and to love the name of the LORD, to be his servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my covenant;
      56:7 Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices [shall be] accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people.

    Hello pastor, I am currently a student at Loma Linda University. I’m glad I came across this video of yours because it has given me clarity and peace. I am always hesitant to explain Adventism to non-Adventists because of this stigma of being a “cult”. I realize I should not be hesitant to share beliefs if I truly believe them. Often times I do not want to spend an extended length of time to explain Adventist beliefs because of how sensitive a topic religion can be as well as how deep and controversial conversations about religion can get. However, after watching this video, I feel more confident to stand up for my own beliefs. If you somehow read this comment, I want to relay that I am thankful.

Wonders of God, He actually rested on the seventh day of creation week, and after He rested He blessed the seventh day, and sanctified, made holy, the seventh day, and gave it to man, all men, as God's Holy Day, a rest day for God to commune with all of His children. Genesis 2:2-3. In Isaiah 58:13,14 God says: "If you turn away your foot from the Sabbath, from doing your pleasure on My holy day, and call the Sabbath a delight, the holy day of the Lord honorable, and shall honor Him not doing your own ways, nor finding your own pleasure, nor speaking your own words, then you shall delight yourself in the Lord..." The Sabbath, seventh day of the week, is the Lord's day, not the day of the Jews, but God's day established at the creation, a commemoration, designed to keep God first in our hearts and minds.

(3) Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which God had created and made." So yes I know that He rested that day. We must be very careful about putting God in a box because of what we think about God, and things that He has not revealed to us about Himself. God is so much bigger than what we can comprehend. The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. However, the Sabbath is God's holy day. Isa 58:13, If you turn away your foot from the Savvath, From doing your pleasure on Mu holy day, And call the Sabbath a delight, The holy day of the Lord honorable, And shall honor Him, not doing your own ways, Nor finding your own pleasure, Nor speaking your own words, (14) Then you shall delight yourself in the Lord: And i will cause you to ride on the high hills or the earth." Yes it is God's holy day, and the fourth of the Ten Commandments, thus we know that it is still in force, and in the perfect law of liberty, that men may rest on the seventh day, and commune with his Maker. Amen!

I have from other churches, and we always talk about the differences in our religions. I try to explain to them in the best possible way of what I know, and what I believe, but I still find myself not knowing answers to some questions that they ask me.

    HI! I have to say I have always been spiritual and believed in Creation. I have never been part of a denomination but I started with the Witnesses and I have to say that I do think they made more sense to me at the time than any other denomination. I was smart enough and read enough of Scriptures to know that celebration of certain holidays such as Xmas, Easter, Halloween, etc. It's about pageantry and not Biblical. I then quickly found out about the Catholics and I knew they were straight up evil. As the years went on my spiritual journey brought me to the Quran, Vedas, bahagavagita, the Torah, the satanic bible, the kabbalah and a few others. I ended up with a agnostic thought process. Very occultic and I have never ever heard the seventh day Adventist group until literally like six months ago and I was blown away!!!! I have never felt so intuitive and I was just like Man these Adventist are The Truth. Anybody who talks crap about the Adventist are just really jealous and envious and get there panties up in a bunch because they can't compete with The Truth and there little games and lies of the church they belong to no longer stand like the rest of the churches these days and they will make up their own little bits of stuff to get you to do whatever they need. Well The Adventist are not like that and I really admire that.

      Pastor Bachelor; I can’t thank you enough for all your helpful info! My son met an SDA gal while stationed in Monterey & they ended up getting engaged then married. I knew nothing of the church. But (conveniently . . God has his timing) I saw one of your presentations on Amazing Facts I believe back in 2016 or so . . It gave me a lot of hope & peace for both of them regarding the beliefs etc of the church. No matter where they have landed (he’s in the Air Force) they always have & develop strong ties & friendships. Closely tied in the SDA church. I am not SDA. . But visit (& am welcomed) in their church & attend locally when they visit here.
      I did attend most of a series in the local Gran Haven Mi church this past fall & found it very informative & helpful. Pastor was extremely legalistic. Please take this the right way . . The churches my son & DIL have been involved with have quite diverse congregations . .& while the SDA church has more traditional worship (rather than praise & worship) the ones he’s attended seem so much more welcoming . . Not stiff like our local one. It just feels different than my other experiences other parts of the country. The “stiff” isn’t differences in beliefs/doctrines, it’s more of a feeling . Dont know how else to say it. At his church in Augusta GA they would accept me where I’m at & love me into being what God wants for me to. . The local one may say those things but definitely a strong judgement feeling if you don’t change in 24 hours. I do not need to be shamed . . . Had enough of that in my life . . . ;-)

    My wife was an Anglican and I was a Catholic but after studying scripture and attending an evangelistic series we were convinced that the Seventh day Adventist church was the only church teaching exactly what the bible says. We have studied the bible now for forty-eight years and have never seen the SDA church sway from bible truth.

      Hebrew 4 and Colossians 2:16 buries all adventists. Stop following a false prophet when 1 Timothy 2:12 and 1 Corinthians 14:34 clearly says women can’t be pastors nor teach men or even speak in the church it is disgraceful 😢

      Keeping a certain day Holy is contrary to to what Jesus taught. When Jesus healed a man who was paralyzed on the sabbath day the pharisees wanted to kill him for doing good on the sabbath. He turned and said to them "if one of you had an animal fall into a whole on the sabbath day you would go and get it out". Here Jesus is having mercy on a human being and they wanted to kill Him. Jesus also condemns denominationalism which is man made. I have never read or studied a writing where Jesus mentions it. A born again believer is all He mentions in the book of John chapter 3. and through out the entire bible. Which suggest the one church the true and living church. Denominations only separate us from loving one another uncoditionaly because of different beliefs when we should all have the same exact beliefs that Jesus had. Who is The Son of God the first born from the dead. God Bless You!
