"The only problem people have with it is Ellen White. If you could erase that you would have a pretty good argument."

Wouldn't that be like all Christianity erasing the works of Paul?

"No thanks, Christ eliminated the old law of the sabbath"

Do you have any scripture to back that up? The epistle of DesignR is not enough evedence for me!

"you are in error by following the teaching of a woman of questionable motive... but come back to The Bible and The Bible alone as your source of God's Will."

And what was her motive? I assume you can read the minds of the dead to know what it wast. Perhaps you should read some of the things Ellen White had to say about the Bible. "We then took the position that the Bible, and the Bible only, was to be our guide; and we are never to depart from this position." (This Day With God, p. 355); “The words of the Bible, and the Bible alone, should be heard from the pulpit.” (Prophets and Kings, p. 626); “...Don’t you quote Sister White. I don’t want you ever to quote Sister White until you get your vantage ground where you know where you are. Quote the Bible. Talk the Bible. It is full of meat, full of fatness. Carry it right out in your life, and you will know more Bible than you know now.” (Spaulding-Magan Collection, p. 174)

If one really wants to know about Seventh-day Adventists, it would make more sense to go to http://www.adventist.org/beliefs/fundame... than to listen to unsupported cult rumors.

White claimed to receive the first of several hundred visions in December of 1844. She gained recognition in Adventist circles as a prophetess and became the church’s leader. Over the next few decades, she provided guidance on almost every aspect of belief and worship, writing over fifty books commenting on health, education, finance, and other topics. Her works are held by her followers to be inerrant on matters of doctrine, as is the Bible, though they are on a slightly lower plane of honor than the Bible.

Her most important books, especially The Desire of the Ages and The Great Controversy, are frequently reprinted by Seventh-Day Adventist publishing houses in a variety of formats. They often appear with different covers and titles. For example, The Great Controversy is often marketed as America in Prophecy. They are printed whole or in excerpted form. Sometimes Ellen Gould White’s name appears on the cover, sometimes a less well-known form of her name appears (e.g., E. G. White), and sometimes her name does not appear on the outside of the book at all.

This allows Adventists to put White’s works in the hands of non-Adventists without alerting them that they are reading an Adventist publication until they are well into the work.

Adventist publishing houses also keep the terms "Seventh-Day" and "Adventist" out of their names. Typical Adventist and Adventist-related publishing houses have names including Inspiration Books, Amazing Truth Publications, Review & Herald Publishing Association, and Pilgrims’ Press.

This is because Adventists have always been regarded suspiciously by Evangelicals and have often been viewed as a fanatical cult (as have some of their offshoots, such as the Branch Davidians). Many Evangelical leaders even have asserted—incorrectly—that Adventists are not Christians, even though they believe in Christ’s divinity and use a valid Trinitarian form of baptism.

Often Adventist-related publishing houses conduct mass mailings of their literature to every home and post office box in a community. This has been done regularly with Amazing Truth Publications’ anti-Catholic volume, National Sunday Law.

I know that you keep the true Sabbath which is saturday and that is very very very good. I also know that you do not keep Gods other Sabbaths and i cannot for the life of me understand why not.

the Passover,the Feast of Unleaven bread,the Feast of Pentecost,the Feast of Trumpets, the Day of Atonement,The Feast of Tabernacles, the Last Great DAY.

Ex 31:12 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Ex 31:13 Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, Verily my SABBATHS ye shall keep: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that ye may know that I am the LORD that doth sanctify you.
notice the plural in sabbaths. and Jesus in the new testament gave an example for all the feast days that i have mentioned.

while you all are correct about the 4th commandment still being in force... you are in error by following the teaching of a woman of questionable motive... Keep The Sabbath as God intended it... but come back to The Bible and The Bible alone as your source of God's Will.... women are not to preach or interpret... and any who do, or did, should not be followed

The only problem people have with it is Ellen White. If you could erase that you would have a pretty good argument.
