Thankyou for responding - that makes sense for Jonah. But I think Jonah is the easy example because the story tells why the Prophecy never was fulfilled. Perhaps Jesus is a better example where he makes the claim about returning within the lifetime of those who were there… but obviously never...

Thankyou Leaf473. Always happy to participate when the subject is of interest. I actually spend a lot of time reading about Biblical history from an academic view. It gives good context as to how the writers of the books felt and what they were dealing with at the time of writing. Unfortunately...

To be fair to them - let's pretend for a minute that I recognised her as a Prophet, that's exactly how I should treat her. She should be able bring instruction to God's people (assuming she met all tests against false prophets) and her words should be taken as additional advice, beyond what is...

Would be good if more people could see this. They live on hype, clickbait, innuendo, and leveraging things one way or another to their favour. More people should be critical of theories these guys spread - something without substance is just that. This is why these types scorn education and...

Yeah ok - thankyou. This process is opening a lot of old wounds for me but I think it's worth re-assessing past convictions with any new information.

ahh thanks. So to quote from your post source. Reading that quote - it seems they believe EGW has the correct interpretation of the Bible and therefore use it as a reference to support analysis and interpretation of the scriptures, (which makes sense if they believe she's a prophet). But I...

Also, I just caught up on the whole thread (not the best use of a holiday but oh well) I was thinking of doing a search for terms around testing prophets in the Bible. There are lists around on google but none that seem to put the tests into clarity for practical application like the thread in...

Ooo that’s highly controversial. I don’t imagine that many Adventists would agree with that. The Bible is the fundamental benchmark for them - they’d be labeled a heretic. Even EGW says that if someone contradicts the Bible, they are not to be believed. I think EGW genuinely believed that...

Likewise Leaf473, thanks for the welcome and nice to meet you too. Yes - aware of conditional prophesy as a Biblical concept. I understand the idea puts them in a few different categories - Decrees without condition (e.g. 2nd coming), and Conditional (I.e. if you repent then you will be saved...

I can see we're up to page 27 and lots have moved to a different topic. I joined the forum specifically after finding this thread so I am going to respond to the original topic points... If I get ignored because we have moved on, then so be it. A bit of context about me - I am very familiar...
