Hello to all posters!

My name is David and I'm from Victorville, California, about 90 miles from downtown Los Angeles.

I am a Seventh-day Adventist Christian that believes in the Godhead of God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.

I'm looking to have some lively yet extremely respectful debates and information exchange. I'm sure I'll get to know many of you in a good way and make many new friends.

Deu 6:4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God [is] one LORD:

Shema!

Hi RND,

Welcome to the forum. We look forward to learning your views. As a Non-Theist, I will probably differ with you on some items, but hopefully we will disagree civilly and will learn from the exchange.

What is special about your chosen religion?

Other than trying to explain I'll just give you the link to the Fundamental Beliefs of the Seventh-day Adventist church and you can pursue it at your own leisure. This way if you have a question or two you'll be better able to understand me.

BTW, Zzyzx did you draw your screen name from famous Zzyzx Road in San Berdo County?

Also to all that said hello I hope to get to know you all soon!

RND,

Thanks for the link. I was more interested in what you considered special about your religion (though I didn't ask that very well).

You are right about the origin of my user name. My given name, like yours, is David. A link to Zzyzx Road, for anyone curious, is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zzyzx,_California

Welcome to the forum RND. I look forward to seeing your perspectives in the debate section.
What we do for ourselves dies with us,
What we do for others and the world remains
and is immortal.

You're welcome. And to answer your question as succinctly as possible: The Love, Mercy, Grace, Kindness and Caring of the one true God of Heaven and Earth, His Son and His Holy Spirit.

That's what is special about my religion.
