QUOTE(summertime @ Sep 21 2006, 09:26 AM) [snapback]152881[/snapback] Could it be that even the angels are standing on the four corners of the fiasco of 3ABN, waiting for some to forsake their wrongs and make things right, so that the wind should not completely destroy the whole of 3ABN when "He just is not done with them yet?" God wants to save us all, even Danny, but the day of destruction will come. We have to remember that Jesus did not die to destroy us all--He died to save us all. Maybe He is waiting for those at 3ABN to come to seek forgiveness, but He will not wait forever. Along with the rest of you, I am anxious to see all this 3ABN lawlessness come to an end. It is hard for us to be patient when we know so many people have been hurt. a bit dramatic don't you think? -------------------- "you are as sick as your secrets...." -quote from Celebrity Rehab-

I'm concerned that if the titillation reaches too high a level of intensity, some here will start having strokes. Perhaps patience would be a healthier state for us all.

We don't know invisible factors. The visible factor is the Most Amazing Prophecies seminar.
As noted by others elswhere, people are coming to that thing, and of course the powers that be don't want to jeopardize conversions. I've never been a fan of 3ABN, which doubtless makes my own attitude towards this whole fiasco quite suspect ... read: sinful. After all, "Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth." Here's the problem, as Danny & Co are finding out (we hope! since not everyone is privy to the information that others have and can't share): "There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known. What you have said in the dark will be heard in the daylight, and what you have whispered in the ear in the inner rooms will be proclaimed from the roofs." Luke 12. However this comes out, I hope they handle it carefully. Where I live, 3ABN is like an oracle of God for a lot of people. Maybe they need the rug jerked out from under them ... gently? -------------------- "The entire world is falling apart because no one will admit they are wrong." -- Don Miller, Blue Like Jazz. |

Our purpose here on BSDA and elsewhere has been to try and bring enough information to light so that as many as possible of those people who think that "3ABN is like an oracle of God" will be gently coaxed to move away from the "rug" before it is "jerked" away to reveal all that has been swept under it for lo, these many years. |

Elsewhere is basically Maritime SDA OnLine, as I think we are now basically the only two forums permitting these 3ABN topics.

Won't we all feel a little used if the climax of this play is far more dissapointing than what we expected because of the buildup?
paraphrasing Matthew: things will happen but the end is still to come. Even soaps on TV can take years to end a story line. -------------------- |
