I also directly responded to Dale's errors, to him personally, through his own ministry website, and email, as stated to you before, and I have conversed with ex-SDA for over periods of six months or more [they always cut the communications]:
"... I have actually written to Dale Ratzlaff's 'ministry', in rebuttal to the error and misuses of various quotes, etc, among other things, and do you know what they wrote back, even on the Sabbath specifically, and Michael, etc? Nothing. They neither responded to it in their 'magazine', which I have read, and personally laughed at and wept over [its kinda mixed really]. It's a sad joke. They only post and reply to what they would classify as hate/anger mail, and then show their 'audience/readers' how terrible these 'people' are, or they accept the weakest arguments from those who do not know any better, but look to make a showing, and lampoon them. When a real Seventh-day Adventist, who knows their Bible [KJB] and the SoP/ToJ [Spirit of Prophecy/Testimony of Jesus] confront them and reply to their diatribe, they clam up, and say nothing, or make a big bluster and switch the issue, or they go to complain on their own personal closed forums [which you cannot really get into to respond to, unless you prove to them you are ex-SDA, by background check through conference, etc.] Pitiful.
Other persons and readers of their 'magazine ministry' end up at CARM, and self-congratulate themselves of how they escaped, of how they found/'studied' their way out [they don't "Study" their way out, they "Don't Study" their way out ...], and instead of having the Gospel in mind, they spend all their time whining about Seventh-day Adventists [and their religion becomes ex-SDAism, while some become Catholics, JW's, Mormons, Baptists, Muslim [yes even them]], atheists, but their common beef is to simply build themsleves up by tearing down the Seventh-day Adventists and attacking a deceased sister [sister White's person and her life], and that's it, go read them for yourself], or their personal experiences, none of them are wholly consistent together on what they believe after they left and went out from us [some still believe the state of the dead, some still believe Michael as Jesus, some this, and some that, but their agreement is ex-SDAism], but became a personal hategroup, joining one of Matt's own making, who classifies himself as a cult-expert, along with their 'mods'. I also debated him [and their 'mods, on numerous occasions], back when I did that. He personally booted me and banned me from the chat, and blocked my IP, and several 'mods' personally erased whole threads, tampered with specific posts and left no indication that it had been done. No good it did him [he could have banned an entire continent's IP range, wouldn't have mattered], I know ways around the IP block, and other types [sometimes takes awhile, but if it's worth it].
Back to Dale and his group, when I first became a Seventh-day Adventist, about a year or so in, my brother and I, found on his car windshield, in the church parkinglot, a 'magazine' from Dale's 'ministry'. Seems they like to sneak in when no one is looking and target new believers. Which means they were watching my brother and I from inside of the church, knowing what specific car it was we rode in. I looked around. It was on no other verhicles that were left that day after the majority had gone. So what did I do with the 'magazine'? Throw it away, tear it up right there? Ha! No. Are you kidding me? I took that as a personal challenge. I read it on the way home, and had a good laugh, and a sustained sorrow for the error it contained, and yet they believed it to be truth. I kept that mag for a long time, and finally abandoned it to the trash bin, after I wrote a letter by email to them. Did they respond? No. Never. I emailed them on several occasions. I get nothing.
I have watched Dales 'videos', and they are frankly misdirection, and sleight of word definition, and plain error, mixed with pieces of truth here and there. In fact, I sat and went through his anti-sabbath [as I do others, like John MacArthur [I emailed his ministry also, from the very ministry I used to work for until recently, and guess what they wrote back about his two anti-sabbath videos and the material therein? Nothing. I challenged John and his whole team. Crickets.] video with a fellow believer [becasue he asked me to, to respond to it, and to deal with the arguments in it], and I went over it by phone with him, with Bible [KJB] in hand, line upon line. The other believer, then saw the video for what it was worth. Wasted time. Vanity. Willing blindness.
Post all the videos you want, I have more than likely already seen them, and show them for what they are. Pick any part you want, give the time index, and as time allows, I will show by the grace of God, that what seemed substance in their 'presentation' will vanish away like smoke in a hazy dream. I have nothing to fear, for I have prayed to God from the beginning for Truth, and God has answered above and beyond what I had ever thought to receive and continues to do so, overflowing. It's one of my sermons I may be preaching soon. Fearless, based upon
1 John 4:18 KJB, read it carefully, and it applies to Heaven [God who is perfect Love, cast out the Spirit of Fear, Satan, and it applies to the Kingdom within, even the heart], it's going to be awesome because God inspires it.
Most ex-SDA get their core material from the original ex-SDA, D.M. Canright [that's Dudley Marvin]. The problem is, ol' Canright, reneged and came back, and wrote his own rebuttal [and 'its solid], but he left again, and died a tragic death, and you can read about it here -

P.S. I 'hang out' [actively come] here, because I was commanded to by Jesus, you can read about that command in
Matthew 28 KJB, etc. I am fishing, just like my Father,
Ezekiel 32. ..." -

... yet you don't seem to actually care about answers, as you have ignored so many direct responses.
