Debbie,

I agree with you. And the more I think about it, the more I really believe that the Three Angel's Messages are a message calling people out of this entire thing. Out of Babylon and all that goes with it.

I read a statement one time that I cant locate now by Ellen White where she said something about "all the various organizations that apply to Babylon" ... I dont remember if the word "organizations" was used or something else similar. It isnt just the Catholic Church, it is alot of things, everything connected with this catholic/pagan/spiritualism movement.

And I am beginning to see that its really like two big camps... those who keep the commandments and those who dont. And the entire catholic/spiritualsm movement is leading people not to keep the law of God and the Three Angel's Movement is calling people out of that whole thing altogether.

And alot of Protestants who are not Seventh Day Adventists realize lots of things but they just havent heard the real message yet.

Its a whole lot more than just the Sabbath, our message is... I dont know how to explain it but its calling people to worship the true God, the Creator... leading to the keeping of all the commandments.

These other Protestants know something is wrong but they just dont quite know what it is.

well now I forgot the point I was originally trying to make

I dont know what was said before because I got to the last page and thought I'd put in my 2¢ worth.

I hold to the idea that its somewhat irreverant to clap in church. Yet many churches do this. Maybe its easier for us people to express ourselves by applause than by a hearty A-men. I know it is for me. So if no applause - I usually dont make any sound.

"I usually don't make any sound"

Hey now there is a radical idea---"Be still, and know that I am God"

Is there a scriptural issue about making sounds in church??? clapping, saying amen, verbal acknowledgements of agreement or even disagreement???
