Ellen G. White - Sports and Materialism (Contextualism)

I woke this Sabbath morning, gearing up for church, i quickly checked my Facebook to see if a friend replied to a certain message. I was thrown back into my seat when i saw my fellow SDA members quickly proving to the world their cultic characteristics that brands the SDA church. We are saved (right or correct religion), everyone else who isn't with us, sorry. THIS INCLUDES ANY ONE WHO PLAYS A BASS GUITAR, DRUM, AND WHO BOXES!

Being a logical person, to condemn anyone, item, or activity, legalistically I would generally condemn everything else associated with that person, thing, or event. Ex. Gas, don't buy gas for your car, you may commit sin! I can not allow my "neighbor" to work on the Sabbath. The oil rigs collecting gas work 24/7 all year round. So if you buy gas your actually making someone sin! 

I may sound a little over exaggerating but I am currently unhappy with what I see happening in the degrading of the SDA religion in my local community which does have an impact on the world view of the SDA Church. And to make myself clear, I stand for the Seventh-day Adventist as for religion in my life, but i Live for Jesus Christ. Religion is a mission ( A cause, principle, or activity pursued with zeal or conscientious devotion) and according to the bible true religion is helping the poor (Jame 1:27). EGW doesn't make SDA a religion, what makes the SDA a religion can be found here:
