Agreed.

However...

Romans 14:4-12
(4) Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.
(5) One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.
(6) He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.
(7) For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself.
(8) For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's.
(9) For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living.
(10) But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
(11) For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.
(12) So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.


I Corinthians 8:1-3
(1) Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but love edifieth.
(2) And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know.
(3) But if any man love God, the same is known of him.

The Judge wrote a Book... and in it we find His ways of being and doing right.

I never said Ben Carson is going to burn in hell. That's not something the Lord has assigned unto me to decide.

However, I have every right to judge doctrine by comparing it to God's Word and if it doesn't, I have every right to say it doesn't. Judging what someone's teaching is frequently seen as passing judgement on the person teaching it personally as though you are claiming they are going to hell er something.

This is a big, big problem in the Body of Christ and some will not be in attendance at the Marriage Supper of the Lamb because... many blindly accept what preachers teach without having any idea what God says in His Word.... this is why we are having a falling away and it's why many will not endure sound doctrine.

We should judge a righteous judgement and since God is the only judge... we need to compare teaching to God's Word to see if it agrees with what God says.

Having said all that, I'll stand by my statement... some of the 7th Day Adventist beliefs are kinda freaky deaky

Ben Carson may be a good prez, I don't know. He seems a little too soft spoken for the position though. He need to be more forceful and act "presidential" like he knows whassup.and quit saying the pyramids were made for grain and other goofy stuff that has nothing to do with running for prez.

He's starting to sound like Trump by getting off on topics that have nothing to do with the campaign.

The passage in Romans says absolutely nothing about anybody's salvation.

Also, reading the article may give you some more insight about the man.

I don't think he's a bad guy at all, and he is certainly better than those baby killers the demosnaps are putting up.

Here's something the Holy Spirit has said...

Proverbs 18:13
He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.

Proverbs 25:2
It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter.
