Well, you are not a member of the SDA church and definitely not a friend of it or it’s members. Also, the vast majority of your posts appear to be extremely negative. I’m going to guess that you have an axe to grind, and are here to troll
the members of your former denomination?

So, I must reluctantly agree with you, JAK. You are "part of the problem", and definitely not "part of the solution". And no, I do not "like the answer". I wish there was a way to heal your bitterness, but it appears that you feel your only escape is in tormenting Christians with whom you disagree.

To have sought out this site and spent so much time lashing out at the people here, you must be in great pain. You will be in my prayers, JAK.

Rick, here is a recent article from Fulcrum7 concerning a possible membership response to divisions, particularly NAD, abandoning Adventist teachings:
Time For The Nuclear Option? November 29, 2018

I read the article. Actually I've read several articles, both pro and con, from Spectrum and Fulcrum 7 and Atoday. What concerns me the most is the inflammatory language used by both parties.
A church should be able to work out their differences without resorting to name-calling, half-truths and misrepresentation of both their "side," the other "side," and indeed, the situation generally.
After all, one of the signs of discipleship is love evident towards our brothers and sisters. IMO, many of these articles lack that component.

It is clear from the article and the comments WHO is actually going to break up the church.

I wonder if they should read this quarter's lesson....

What are your thoughts on the makeup of a church? That is to say, what is it that constitutes a denomination? If it is merely the purported belief in God, then there are no distinctions between denominations, and no SDAs. If it is a shared list of dogmatic beliefs, then some divisions broke apart from the SDA denomination when they ceased to share those beliefs. Does this mean that the church has broken up, or are parts of it being “shaken” out, while the church itself remains intact? After all, it is the people that make up the church. The departure of a particular administration does not mean all of the members have left the denomination.

As in our lesson this quarter, repentance, reconciliation and unity are part of our Christian life. This is the way to go...

We, with our imperfect understanding, created denominations. Do you think God, with His perfect understanding, recognizes any of our man-made divisions?

Nadi, are you a member of a particular church or denomination? If so, why? If not, why not?

By supporting leadership that is normalizing practices such as baptism of lesbians, worship led by gays, forced participation in Jesuit meditation techniques, abandonment of the Sabbath, etc. Do we become partakers in those rebellious acts?
