    Journal of the Adventist Theological Society, 27/1-2 (2016): 98-116. Article copyright © 2016 by Michael W. Campbell. Seventh-day Adventism, Doctrinal Statements, and Unity Michael W. Campbell Adventist International Institute of Advanced Studies Cavite, Philippines 1. Introduction “All Christians engage in confessional synthesis,” wrote theologian Carl R. Trueman.1 Some religious groups adhere to a public confession of faith as subject to public scrutiny whereas others are immune to such scrutiny. Early Seventh-day Adventists, with strong ties to the Christian Connexion, feared lest the creation of a statement of beliefs so that some at some point may disagree with that statement may at some point be excluded.2 Another danger was that statements of belief might be used to present making new discoveries from Scripture, or afterward a new truth might be stifled by appealing to the authority of an already established creed. From the perspective of early Sabbatarian Adventists, some remembered the time when during the Millerite revival that statements of belief were used to exclude them from church fellowship.3 These fears were aptly expressed during the earliest organizational developments in 1861 of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. According to denominational co-founder, James White: “making a creed is setting the stakes, and barring up the way to all future advancement. The Bible is 1 Carl R.

  • The Case for the Investigative Judgment: Its Biblical Foundation
    396 SEMINARY STUDIE S 49 (AUTUMN 2011) psychology and self-perception; and, in chapter 7, she discusses changes in consciousness and practice as Methodism entered the new century. This book is a valuable study for students within Adventist studies, because it provides a new vignette and revisionist perspective to draw from for understanding Methodism; which is one of the significant and formative influences impacting the formation of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Perhaps what is most helpful is chapter 6 on the “culture of dreaming.” Many of the pioneers of Adventism had dreams that they understood as having spiritual significance. Wesley both affirmed the reality of supernatural events, yet denied assurance as to their interpretation beyond the dreamer’s own changed life; yet, dreams “constituted an absolutely vital unifying discourse” (227). Such dreams personified “heart religion” through emotion and action, with men and women viewing such dreams differently: male leaders viewed dreams as a way to allay anxiety, while female leaders viewed their dreams as visionary and telepathic, and as revelatory of their own inner natures (232). When male leaders gained prominence as circuit preachers, they interpreted fewer dreams, argues Mack, which she suggests reflects “pressure to present Methodism as a respectable movement” (243). Thus the most significant aspect of dreaming was “the power of dreams to generate individual reflexivity and to assist the religious seeker in shaping her own autobiography” (257). Mack offers a compelling read into the ordinary men and women who embraced the Methodist project of self-transformation. In this journey, individuals, and notably women, had an opportunity to shape their response to life experiences.

  • "Adventist Theology Vs. Historic Orthodoxy," Eternity
    Martin, The Truth About Seventh-Day Adventism, Part 3 The Truth About Seventh-Day Adventism 1 Walter R. Martin Part 3: Adventist Theology vs. Historic Christianity Are there serious differences concerning cardinal doctrines of Christianity? In the first two articles of this series on Seventh-day Adventism, we were concerned chiefly with the history and some of the theological doctrines of the Adventist denomination. We saw how Seventh-day Adventism developed from the Second Advent (Millerite) Movement following the Great Disappointment of 1844, and that the early Adventists came from varying religious backgrounds, some orthodox and some heterodox—that is, out of harmony with generally accepted doctrinal teaching in particular areas. Thus, it was some years before certain segments within the main body resolved their differences and consolidated their beliefs in a doctrinal platform acceptable to the majority. We are concerned in this article with some of the differences between Seventh-day Adventist theology and the theology of “historic orthodoxy.” We have two questions: (1) Are there major differences regarding the cardinal doctrines of the Christian faith, between Seventh-day Adventist theology and evangelical orthodoxy? (2) Are the other differences that exist an insuperable barrier to fellowship between Seventh-day Adventists and evangelicals? Extensive study reveals seven areas of disagreement. We shall note the seven areas, discuss them, and attempt to reach a conclusion based upon all available evidence, by-passing the morass of prejudice accumulating for almost one hundred years. 1. Conditional Immortality, “Soul Sleep” and Annihilation The doctrine of “soul sleep” (unconsciousness in death) and the final extinction of all the wicked, is a cardinal tenet in the theological superstructure of the Seventh-day Adventists Church.
