This is not right folks, this is not normal, this is OCD hatred.
What? Who hates her?

When someone asks if god is going to forgive her, sure gives me the impression they also hate her.

Or is it the other way around?

Who?

What about the current flock that claim to get messages from God while they live lives of extravagance?

Why can't people let others rip without judgment. We cant possibly know where she is now any more so than we know where Martin Luther is or anyone else. Let it go!

Well god, please give us your final verdict and that would suffice.

how could you possibly know if someone had repented of a "sin" before they died?

He (being God) already did:

Rom 5:6 For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.

Rom 4:5 But to the one who does not work, but believes in Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is reckoned as righteousness,

2Co 5:19 namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation.

So, let's recap here. Jesus died for her, justified her, and we're told that God was in Christ and reconciled her to Himself.

Sounds like good news to me... If she doesn't know, someone who does believe should tell her so.

Every single one of us, who are the bride of the Messiah, are priests and have the ability to speak for God. He speaks through every single one of us, and we are all His messengers. His Holy Spirit is in us, and walks among us. The King, the head of the church, walks among His people (in His people).

You have every right to believe what you want. Just don't be afraid to study, when someone shows you what you believe is contradicting itself, or is wrong. Just study it.

Don't contradict yourself and facts (what a prophet is), just to make your beliefs be true.

May your search find you truth, and make you a better person for it.
lol.

I'm simply a disciple of Yahushua the Messiah, and have never been an SDA, nor was it because of Ellen G. White or the SDA denomination that I obeyed the truth. If any denomination gets the credit I guess it would have to be some Messianic brother who's book I stumbled accross, only after the Holy Spirit began revealing the truth to me.

Be Blessed.

True. I believe and highly respect the person who leads many to righteousness, and consider false the person who is responsible for many considering the commandments as trash, and causing much sin.

In my opinion, Ellen G. White led and continues to lead many to righteousness.

Paul, leads many to disobedience and lawlessness.

You can't lead someone to Yahushua without leading them to His teachings.
