    John Nevins Andrews: 1829 – 1883 on the Trinity “The doctrine of the Trinity which was established in the church by the council of Nice, A. D. 325. This doctrine DESTROYS THE PERSONALITY OF GOD, AN HIS SON JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD. The infamous, measures by which it was forced upon the church which appear upon the pages of ecclesiastical history might well cause every believer in that doctrine to blush.” (J. N. Andrews, March 6, 1855, Review & Herald, vol. 6, no. 24, page 185)

    In reading the comments I am overwhelmed at how the Spirit of Christ is waking people up to the damage that the trinity doctrine does. 1. Denies Jesus as the Son of God by saying he wasn’t brought forth from the Father and that the word Son is just metaphorical. 2 Diminishes the love of God by claiming he didn’t really send His Son but one third part of Himself. 3 takes away the honor and respect that is given to Christ by what He does through His Spirit and gives the credit and praise to a mysterious made up being. And we know who in heaven wanted to be included and worshipped like the Father and Son. It’s time to wake up Adventist, God is preparing a people to show his full character in this final battle! Praise be to God and his only and literal begotten Son, our redeemer Jesus Christ!

    All he has to do is read through Revelation 3:12, which destroys the Catholic Trinity, and find out why the SDA Pioneers, all of them, were non-Trinitarians.
  • The Lord is soon to come. We want that complete and perfect understanding which the Lord alone can give. It is not safe to catch the spirit from another. We want the Holy Spirit, which is Jesus Christ. If we commune with God, we shall have strength and grace and efficiency. 9LtMs, Lt 66, 1894, par. 18
  • Pastor, it is your responsibly to study this yourself. You cannot give it to somebody else. Also, be careful to just listen to somebody else that might seem to be very important or will respected. It is sad that people can retrace where God had led then clearly. So, you are making a mistake to think this issue is not important and can just be left alone until Jesus comes back. This is not a distraction. You cannot put away sin if you do not deal with this issue! But I trust that God will not leave you alone. God loves you too much to just let you go. If we do not follow the path He gives us, He will use everything, including pain, to guide us back. The big issue is not the nature of the Spirit, it is the issue of who the Son is. So, do you believe that Jesus is the literal Son of God? You need to take a position!

    There is only ONE Mediator between man and God, Jesus Christ. The Father and Son have bodies which we are made in the image of. They are everywhere present by their representative spirit.
  • The Holy Spirit is not another person. The trinity is a Catholic doctrine.... The Holy Spirit is Christ's representative, but divested of the personality of humanity, and independent thereof. Cumbered with humanity, Christ could not be in every place personally. Therefore it was for their interest that He should go to the Father, and send the Spirit to be His successor on earth. No one could then have any advantage because of his location or his personal contact with Christ. By the Spirit the Saviour would be accessible to all. In this sense He would be nearer to them than if He had not ascended on high. DA 669.2 Also, baptism was done by the disciples, in the name of Christ all through the New Testament, not in the name of the trinity. Keep studying brethren. God has promised to lead us into all truth by His Spirit 🙏🏾

    DEAR PASTOR DAVID: In my poor opinion we need to REFRAIN FROM STEPPING WITH OUR SANDALS INTO THIS HOLY PLACE AND EVEN WITHOUT OUR SANDALS. I read the Bible from age 8, and I understood that all about God is a mistery, but God loves me, the Holy Spirit is helping me to make in my life effective the salvation gained by Jesus. I believe in the Holy Spirit as a being so humble, so loving, so patient Who open my mind to understand the Truth, a being so POWERFUL that Satan and all his angels are VERY AFRAID OF HIM, a being that is my personal bodyguard to protect my physical body, my mind, emotions and feelings against the deceptions and attacks of Satan. From where any of the three came from? I have not idea, I do not understand even what is life, how I live, think, feel and later die, but I put all my hope in my Creator, Who is Jesus, and all I see is a Godhead with 3 cooperating persons in order to save us and erradicate evil from His creation, evil deteriorates all the good things God had made, and evil leads to death that is become again DUST. In nature all become "dust" by oxidation, corrosion, rottenness, dryness, etc. I think only GOLD is an exception, because radiation is a deterioration of the atom that produce clean energy, but if deteriorated: poison radiation, I think evil angels are radioactive because they are deteriorating (my opinion). With so a short understanding of what is a spirit like the angels, HOW WE PRETEND TO UNDERSTAND THE HOLY SPIRIT???I DO NOT EVEN UNDERSTAND JESUS, AND PEOPLE FIGHTING ABOUT THIS? CAN WE UNDERSTAND ELECTRICITY? and we are "electric" to revive us they shock us with electricity, I do not see nobody fighting about electricity, BUT I BELIEVE THIS: THE PEOPLE WASTING THEIR ENERGY ON THIS ISSUE INSTEAD ASKING GOD DAILY FOR THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL BE LOST....this is an issue that Satan probably delights in for two reasons: 1) To mock God 2)To make us unprepared for His coming with all the mess that will happens before. WHAT TO DO??? ASK THE FATHER FOR THE HOLY SPIRIT CLAIMING OUR RIGHT FOR IT BY THE BLOOD OF JESUS THAT PAY OUR DEBT AND GOT OUR PARDON.

    “Cumbered with humanity, Christ could not be in every place personally; therefore it was altogether for their advantage that He should leave them, go to His father, and send the Holy Spirit to be His successor on earth. The Holy Spirit is Himself divested of the personality of humanity and independent thereof. He would represent Himself as present in all places by His Holy Spirit, as the Omnipresent.” Manuscript Releases (1993). (Vol. 14, p. 23). (MR NO. 1084. Feb. 19, 1895)
  • @1bdragon100
    Sir, you know in your heart that the trinity is false. You know it!
  • When EGW says we are not to come up with speculative ideas on who the Holy Spirit is she is referring to some of the people discussing trinitarian views on the Holy Spirit before Adventist’s started adopting this view. She was warning the people not to go down this path. They were not trinitarian at this stage. You only have to compare the fundamentals back then to now to see that they were not trinitarian.
  • @zarapine4072
    Sad that someone who speaks out on a Bible truth and pointing out the catholic trinity comes under attack as shady. The catholic Church says whoever is a trinitarian is a catholic and the sda church had to accept the trinity to join the worldwide council of churches. I was the secretary for the representative for the worldwide council of churches sda representative in the 80s in a certain country. This is also the time when the sda church brought in a new hymnal with trinitsrian songs. And the papal inquisitions would torture people to accept the trinity and first day of the week as the holy day. This is historical fact.

    If we don’t believe in the Holy Sprit we can’t receive the later Rain. We need to pray!!
  • @despereauxxx
    We are partaking in praying with you throughout May God be with you
  • @laura-loves-god
    The first commandment says it all. Adventists pride themselves on knowing the fourth commandment, but totally ignore the first commandment.
  • @Rub316
    If the sealing according to SOP is the affirmation both intellectually and spiritually how can you take that stand brother G. Will God's people get sealed with errors in their minds? 👈😎
  • Mar 3:28  Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme: Mar 3:29  But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation: Mar 3:30  Because they said, He hath an unclean spirit.
  • Thanks to God for guiding you to prioritise what is necessary now, evangilising - may God be merciful to me .... and us all from Pinkie
  • @th-rd2xh
    God is One. YAHUSHA/Jesus is God manifested in flesh. God died for us in flesh but remains alife in Spirit. Spirit is and was always omniscient and omnipresent. Ellen White often writes that Jesus is the Spirit.....
