Cakes, sweet puddings, pastries, jellies, jams, are active causes of in- digestion. Especially harmful are the custards and puddings in which milk, eggs, and sugar are the chief ingredients." "Grains, fruits, nuts, and vegetables constitute the diet chosen for us by our Creator. These foods, prepared in as simple and natural a manner as possible, are the most healthful and nourishing. They impart a strength, a power of en- durance, and a vigour of intellect, that are not offered by a more complex and stimulating diet." "Many die of diseases wholly due to meat eating, while the real cause is scarcely suspected by themselves or others." "There should not be a great variety at any one meal, for this encourages overeating and causes indigestion." "The meals should be varied. The same dishes, prepared in the same way, should not appear on the table meal after meal and day after day." "Regularity in eating is of vital im- portance. There should be a specified time for each meal." "Many indulge in the pernicious habit of eating just before sleeping hours.

KNIGHT: ITS CONTEXT AND IMPLICATIONS Name of researcher: Jamie Kiley Name and degree of faculty adviser: Denis Fortin, Ph.D. Date completed: December 2009 George R. Knight attempts to chart a middle course between various historical extremes on the doctrine of sin. His view of the Fall and of the consequent effects on human nature is not as pessimistic as that of theologians in the Augustinian tradition (including Martin Luther and John Calvin), who stress the complete corruption of human nature and the loss of free will.

These four scholars and four important communities are among those I remember as instrumental to my completion of the doctoral degree: the academic community at the University of Florida (UF); Florida International University (FIU); the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS) and its Florida Fort Lauderdale Mission (FFLM); and my loved ones. At UF, I thank those pioneers in our department who envisioned a new doctoral program organized to innovatively think about the study of religion through three tracks: Religion in the Americas, Asian Religions, and Religion and Nature. My interests have always been religion and politics in the Americas, with interests in the environment so this program was a good fit. Second, I thank the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences for awarding to me the Aschoff Dissertation Writing Award, and to the Madelyn Lockhart Dissertation Fellowship Committee for choosing me as a finalist. Both awards facilitated my research and writing. I am most indebted to Dr. Anna Peterson, University of Florida Latin Americanist, environmentalist, and ethicist, as chair of my dissertation committee, teaching supervisor, and mentor extraordinaire.

  • Toward a Biblical Theology of God's Judgment
    Journal of the Adventist Theological Society, 15/1 (Spring 2004): 138–165. Article copyright © 2004 by Jir¥ií Moskala. Toward a Biblical Theology of God’s Judgment: A Celebration of the Cross in Seven Phases of Divine Universal Judgment (An Overview of a Theocentric- Christocentric Approach) Jir¥ˆí Moskala Andrews University The Scriptural teaching about judgment lies at the center of GodÕs revela- tion. It is a crux of the biblical message, giving a profound paradigm for our thinking. Next to the fundamental proclamation that God is the Creator (Gen 1Ð2), the Lord is presented as the Judge: In the Garden of Eden there is the first reference to the trial judgment (Gen 3:8Ð24),1 where the grace and justice of God are intermingled.2 The biblical Flood narrative is an account about judg- ment (Gen 6Ð9).3 Abraham called God Òthe Judge of all the earthÓ (Gen 18:25). Two biblical books carry the concept of judgment in their titles: the book of Judges and the book of Daniel.4 1Claus Westermann, Genesis 1Ð11: A Commentary (Minneapolis: Augsburg, 1984), 254: ÒThe purpose of the trial scene is to make clear to the man and the woman what they have done.Ó 2Grace was demonstrated because the first couple did not die in the day when they ate from the forbidden fruit, as promised by God (Gen 2:16Ð17; 3:9), and the proto-Gospel with the promise of the seed and victory over the serpent was given (Gen 3:15).

Vitrano, Ph.D. Date completed: August 1991 Problem As early as 1957 there has been concern by some church members that Seventh—day Adventist preaching |has lost its uniqueness or as some have said, "the old Adventist ring." Are SDA preachers losing the church's mission in their preaching? That assertion continues to be a voice within Adventism. Method A study from the Bible, writings of Ellen G.
