Although Ben was not called a "secret Muslim" like Obama is often by GOP Christians but he seemed to have quite different views about Muslims/Jews until recently. Not clear if he adjusted his tune recently for fund raising boost but this seems like an abrupt flip flop:

Christians push back on Dr. Ben Carson’s Facebook faith post (http://standupforthetruth.com/2015/04/christians-push-back-on-dr-ben-carsons-facebook-faith-post/)


http://standupforthetruth.com/2015/04/christians-push-back-on-dr-ben-carsons-facebook-faith-post/



His popularity among GOP Chrsitains and fund raising could go by way of "Pizza Pizza" if his real view of "love, acceptance" for muslims went viral on CNN, Fox news websites.

honestly i see nothing wrong whit what he said. god is god right?? isnt it the same god? why do so many christians get pissed when they are faced with the fact that god created All of us even muslims? besides jesus wasnt a white american guy. i pissed off many family and friends whn they held their "im right and theyre wrong" attitude when referring to brown people. i told them that jesus was also brown....so if you hate them, you hate him. smh.....

this is one of the reasons i no longer believe in mans version of christianity or mans version of god. if jesus said let ALL come to him...then that means all and we are all the same....yet so many dont think so.

fuck em, ill just be as good as i can to people and not waste my time. if god is real, then im sure hes smart enough to know why i do what i do.

This is a very progressive, "American" attitude to have towards religion, and it will probably serve Carson well in his candidacy for a while, but it's also based on a monumentally false premise. If you look at the Islamic, post-NT Judaic and Christian views of God, they are extremely different. Both Judaic and Islamic understanding of the Godhead reject Trinitarian doctrine (some sects claiming to be Christian do this as well), and they have very different doctrinal interpretations of what texts they have in common with each other.

It's a very politically correct thing to say, but it's also a complete lie.

But he gets very little money from GOP Christians when Carson expresses Jesus' love and acceptance for muslims and jews. It is $$$s problem.

No. It's all taken from the very words of Ellen G. White. They believe that atonement for sins can be made by men's faith and repentance, which is not a Christian belief.

I assert your claim is false. I would appreciate if you could provide sources for me to investigate.

I'm certainly no theologen, but I believe atonement is only possible by the intercession of Christ. Forgiveness is a gift, but one cannot receive the gift if not true in faith to Christ and truly repentant. Where true repentance is being sorry for the harm caused to others, especially to God because of our sin, instead of simply being sorry for the consequences of our sin. This is the gist of SDA belief in that matter. Id be interested in your sources. I suspect they are out of context. I'm at work now so I have to go. Have a good day.

Ellen G. White wrote some extremely dubious things regarding the topic of sin and atonement, particularly as it pertains to the crucifixion and Christ's nature. For example:

1. In her book "Patriarchs and Prophets," Mrs. White writes: "The blood of Christ...was not to cancel sin." Her co-worker, Uriah Smith, wrote: "Christ did not make the atonement when He shed His blood upon the Cross. Let this be for ever fixed in the mind." (Looking Unto Jesus, p.237) This is in direct contradiction to the New Testament, which asserts that "In whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins according to the riches of His grace." (Ephesians 1:7); "Made peace through the blood of His cross" (Colossians 1:20); "Redeemed by the precious blood of Christ" (1 Peter 1:19)

2. Mrs. White further writes in "Patriarchs and Prophets": "Satan bore...the weight and punishment of the sins of the redeemed." This is in direct contradiction to several parts of the New Testament most directly "Who (Christ) His own self bore our sins in His own body on the tree" (1 Peter 2:26)

3. Perhaps most offensive to the doctrine of the Virgin birth and Christ's incarnation is another passage where she states "In His humanity, Christ partook of our sinful, fallen nature...On His human side, Christ inherited just what every child of Adam inherits--a sinful nature." in her book "Bible Readings for the Home Circle," (p. 115) This is a particularly offensive statement as it is clearly written that Christ's incarnation was not tied to Adam by ordinary generation, hence the virgin birth. Furthermore, the New Testament testifies that "He was holy, harmless, undefiled and separate from sinners" (Hebrews 7:26) and "without sin" (Hebrews 4:15).

It should also be noted that SDAs also believe in the concept of "soul sleep", which is in contradiction to "Absent from the body, present with the Lord." (Phil. 1:23) Likewise, SDAs deny the doctrine of everlasting punishment, which contradicts more New Testament passages than I care to mention.


P.S. - This is just the tip of the ice berg. I've read through some of Ellen G. White's works, and along with the entire Presbyterian communion during her lifetime, I am convinced that her incongruous statements regarding faith and doctrine were the product of severe mental illness, as was the case with Margaret MacDonald's "visions" that gave us all this Pre-Trib Rapture gibberish.

Ellen G. White taught that "faith and repentance" atoned for sin, thereby denying the atonement of Christ:


“…[O]ur High Priest enters the holy of holies [in 1844]…to perform the work of investigative judgement and to make an atonement for all who are shown to be entitled to its benefits… Every man’s work passes in review before God and is registered for faithfulness or unfaithfulness… The law of God is the standard by which the characters and the lives of men will be tested in the judgement… As the books of record are opened in the judgement, the lives of all those who have believed on Jesus come in review before God… Names are accepted, names rejected… as they have become partakers of the righteousness of Christ, and their characters are found to be in harmony with the law of God, their sins will be blotted out, and they themselves will be accounted worthy of eternal life…. Jesus does not excuse their sins, but shows their penitence and faith, and, claiming for them forgiveness, He lifts His wounded hands before the Father… Sins that have not been repented of and forsaken will not be pardoned and blotted out of the books of record, but will stand to witness against the sinner…. [Christ] had kept His Father’s commandments, and there was no sin in Him… this is the condition in which those must be found who shall stand in the time of trouble” (Great Controversy, pp. 480, 482–84, 486, 623).

Indeed, it's classic, full-on Pelagian error, which they inherited from the Restorationist Movement, particularly the earlier Millerite Adventists, who believed that the world was going to end in 1843 among other various absurdities. I'm generally dismissive of anybody arguing in favor of any sectarian group that arose out of the 18th century onward, and it's usually because stuff like this is generally shared by most, if not all of them.

Lots of judgmental types here. A Christian isn't someone who follows what some majority feels is standard Christian orthodoxy. A Christian is someone who follows Christ and tries to live a Christ-like lifestyle. As long as there is nothing that conflicts with what Jesus himself taught, I see no issue.

In regards to Adventists, White's work isn't taken to be equal to the bible at all, at most it is just her own view and interpretations of things but it isn't considered equal in any way which is a difference from Mormonism. But then I see no reason why Mormonism isn't Christian either other than people wanting to be all "Oh X isn't a true Christian" kind of judgmental filth.

I will take their word for it. Caron is a Christian, Romney is a Christian, and Obama is a Christian. It certainly isn't my place to say someone isn't a Christian. I don't know their minds and I am not God. What is worse than any odd element that may be in some denomination is judgmental people who think they know "what a true Christian is".

I find some of Caron's political comments odd and I disagree with some, but I certainly agree with him here. Muslims, Jews, Catholics, Protestants do indeed all have the same God. The God of Abraham. The religions may be different but they have a common origin if you go far enough back. But some people like to focus on minor differences instead of commonalities for some reason.

I understand why Catholics and SDAs are murky, especially since there are no doubt true Christians in those churches despite the heresies taught there. But Mormons and Jehovah's Witnesses are clear, full blown cults and there is no possible way to defend otherwise. Both deny the trinity, one teaches arianism and the other polytheism, one blatantly ignores the authority of scriptures while the other effectively does, etc. There's no real gray area there, and I don't see how any Christian with any level of maturity could be convinced into believing they are true CHristians. And I don't see how any Christian whatsoever could actually know about those cults and consider the differences trivial.

You believe he's not a Christian because you believe most Christians aren't Christian. You don't believe Rand Paul is a Christian. You probably don't believe Ron Paul is a Christian. (Ron Paul said that homosexuality is not a sin because gays are born that way. You probably believe closer to Ben Carson than Ron Paul on that.) You don't believe Eastern Orthodox or Catholics or Pentecostals or Freewill Baptists are Christians.

Ben Carson placed on Southern Poverty Law Center’s ‘Extremist Watch List’

:rolleyes: Except Ben Carson had the same belief about gays prior to running for office. Obama went to the progressive church of Jeremiah right that, to my knowledge, has no religious stand on gay marriage.

While pro Obama libs calling Ben Carson "Uncle Tom" and "mentally ill" does cross lines of political correct ness, what his his flip-flopping game here:



Ben Carson: screen Syrian refugees like they're rabid dogs – video

http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/video/2015/nov/20/ben-carson-screen-syrian-refugees-like-theyre-rabid-dogs-video


Guardian headline is dishonest but I guess that doesn't matter. I watched the video. He wasn't saying all Syrian refugees were rabid dogs but that there are likely mad dogs (terrorists) among them. And...that's a real possibility. Anyway by pimping this story you are likely helping Carson among likely republican voters. Does he have you on his payroll?

Many Media owners/neocons owners are dishonest, so you stating the obvious in first part of your arhument.



I watched the video. He wasn't saying all Syrian refugees were rabid dogs but that there are likely mad dogs (terrorists) among them.

If some "politically incorrect" white conservative advocated that US Police should screen/profile black people using the analogy that some of them are rabid dogs (gangsters), will you take time to defend person who makes that analogy?

Do you believe Ben Carson had mad dog (gangster) temprament as a young man when he used to stab/hammer attack people before he got cured through Jesus therapy?

What a Jesus inspired compassion this amazing hero exhibits both in his words and actions:

Ben Carson spent this Thanksgiving holiday hanging with Islamic refugees from Syria with his wife covered in muslim garb.
