      Can we address any matter with just talk? All the talking they are doing things are getting worse,why do they continue to mention culture?, culture has nothing to do with salvation.That’s why God said DO NOT FOLLOW THE WAYS OF THE HEATHEN/ PAGANS. When we open the doors to pagan festivals,Abortion,Spiritualism.How comes the GBLTQ becomes such a important topic?
      These leaders need to say we need to repent of our sins that’s the only way to gain salvation, Anyone who don’t want to confess and let go of the sinful doing will see it as offensive when confronted of they sins. Why women who get pregnant out of wedlock are disfellowship without all of this long talk? Remember this SDA CONFERENCE HAS BEEN TAKEN OVER BY ROMAN CATHOLIC JESUITS. WHO WILL JUST TALK LIKE THESE TWO BUT NO ACTIONS.
      THESE MEN LOVE TO MENTION THE BIBLE AND QUOTE FROM EGW,BOOKS,BUT REFUSE TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS, ELLEN WHITE SAID WHEN PASTORS AND PREACHERS STRAY FROM THE STRAIGHT GOSPEL THEY SHOULD BE FIRED.
      IF THE BIBLE IS OUR GUIDE WHY DO WE HAVE TO SETUP A TASK FORCE TO EXPLAIN BIBLICAL SEXUALITY IS THE BIBLE NOT PLAIN ENOUGH ON THAT SEXUALITY?.What if that task force comes up in favor of the GBLTQ?

    Also it's not the duty of the pastors and leaders only to teach our children and young generation, but us as parents in a Christian adventist families to teacher our children about the bible truth. If schools teach our children the worldly ways, it's our duty to stop taking this subject of LGBTQ+ as a taboo and openly talk to our young generation about it and tell them what God gave us as the truth.
    Everything starts from our own homes. If we let our children take in Everything they get from schools and our corrupt society then we loose them to the devil.
    People of Jesus, we're at war and we are fighting with the devil. Only Jesus can fight for us!
    Be strong, Jesus has overcome!

      The two elderly SDA pastors that are gay and married must have been engaged in this behaviour for sometime. It is sad that certain misconduct are not brought to the forefront and dealt with. And it was said by an African christian. These homosexual agenda is not being pushed on Saudi Arabia or any Muslim countries as it would be met with the sword. The christians are too laid back but at the end of it all everyone had to make his or her own choice to serve GOD. Nevethe less the church has to be sure not to compromise with this evil as it is an abomination to GOD. AMEN . They need to disfellowship them so as not to allow this evil to disrupt the body of CHRIST. They ought not to be acknowledged or affirmed among the brethren.

    Standing on God's WORD is imperative and important. The same way Dr. Finley used THE WORD to explain God's perspective on human sexuality is the prelude to how other Biblical teaching must be prayerfully taught. One such teaching is The Sabbath. This is why WE MUST be Signed, Sealed, and Settled in Jesus and Biblical teachings from God's WORD.
    More and more we can see why The Latter Rain must be PRAYED FOR and received to first live for God and then have power to proclaim His WORD with boldness. The Holy Spirit is needed NOW more than ever before. Satan knows his time is short and is seeking to cloud the judgement of TRUTH SEEKERS so they would believe a lie.
    May we all earnestly REPENT so that nothing hinders the fullness of The Latter Rain from falling on each of us and teach and preach with unprecedented POWER and watch thousands won to Christ through us!

      @@vanarmand777 The lamb represented Christ's future sacrifice. Remember, when Jesus died on the cross, the veil between the two temple chambers was torn from top to bottom. The ceremonial law and temple activities were voided. Sacrificing a lamb or presenting our petitions to God via a high priest is no longer applicable. God continues to bless and provide for us, returning 10% towards his work is still in effect as it is used to further his work. The seventh-day Sabbath is still in effect as well. In fact, it was established at creation, long before the nation of Israel came to be. Genesis establishes that it was a memorial to God's creation.

      Ted Wilson cannot fire a pastor. That can only be carried out by the local conference which is supporting the bisexual pastor in Germany. The local church could disfellowship the pastor but it is quite obvious by the local members continuing to attend that they also support him.

    ''Love'' so-called is what these are using to ''squeeze'' the church into conformity! Allowing this sin to flourish in the church, in the name of love is wrong. And herein is the problem. Pastor Mark says we need to listen, to what? Listen to them try and convince you that affirmation is the only way? And that's exactly where we are now. These are not interested in reasoning from the Scriptures. They have outright distorted them. Pastor Ted and Mark. You are leaders by choice or desire, you're there. Stating what the Bible teaches and then ignoring SDA queer weddings, membership, and college clubs is wrong. If you and/or the GC are impotent to hold sin in check why are you there? To collect a check? You say...we have no control over pastors or conferences, so you do nothing....really? If these Pastors and conferences were promoting idol worship, adultery, or Sunday would you say the same? The best we can do to stop the spread of this sin is to do what we would for any other.
    Meet with the conferences, colleges, or Pastors supporting inclusion not overcoming. When it is clear they will not conform to the Bible let them go!! If you don't you're going to tear God's church even more than it is now!

      They have compromised too far to turn again to the LORD's way. They keep talking about their policy. It has superseded the Bible. They now have hired a task force, so the Bible is not enough. The same thing these two did with the abortion issue. They have applied their policy to grant abortion to women whose lives were at risk. In so doing apparently, hundreds of women's lives were at risk since 1985, so they did not let God chose whom He would save. These old men have done so much damage for so long, God has ceased to lead them. They are in bed for too long with the pope and Ganone Diop is their representative at the Vatican.

      Seventh-day Adventists practice a system of governance that is decentralized. That is to say that each entity the local church, the local conference, and Unions have the constitutional responsibility to deal with issues within the framework of that responsibility. The Church Manual and the Church Policies voted at the General Conference session govern their actions. The local church in the context to these policies reports to the conference, the conference officers to the union and the union officers to the Division.
      Pastors are employed by local conferences and conferences have the responsibility to uphold the values of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. In some instances pastors have been removed of their responsibilities for their support of the LGBTQ issues. As far as church officers are concerned each local church that elects officers has the responsibility before God to see that those officers have lives in harmony with scriptural truths and biblical values.

    Let's teach, instruct, and preach people about this sodomic sin especially in our colleges and universities.
    May God fight on our side!!

    This seems to be a " face saving" Q&A and not one that calls sin by it's right name.

      @@gregorywest8609 You pray for them, while diligently protecting your kids and praying for kid's safety. I get the anger over those statements, it's pretty bad and worrying. Jesus knew Judas was going to betray Him and yet still chose him as an apostle, washed his feet, etc. I'm sure that wasn't easy for Jesus when He knew what was coming. Jesus is our example and we are to treat them the way Jesus would treat anyone. If we don't pray for them, share Jesus with them, how are they going to have hope that they can have victory over their sins? Many don't even realize it IS a sin. By the way, many gays don't agree with the whole "coming for your children" thing...they are really starting to speak out against it because they want no part of it, like Gays against Groomers group.

      The Seventh-day Adventist church has clearly spoken on this issue. The church leaders issued a Reaffirmation Document reaffirming our position on Human Sexuality and the unbiblical nature of the LBGTQ movement as well as publicly speaking out on this video and the question and answer period with Pastors Finley and Wilson. In the coming weeks you will be hearing more about this in Adventist Journals and broadcasts.

    I love Ps Finley and Ps Ted Wilson. May God sustain and guide you and help you to be faithful under-shepherds. The issue of LGBTQ is not as tricky in my part of the world. The approach perhaps would be different in addressing it.
