I am deeply conscious of Adventist interest in and efforts to promote religious freedom through- out the world. In those efforts, your Church in Canada has very wide support. I wish all of you renewed vigour with which to continue these and other church activities in the service of God and man. With kind regards, Yours sincerely, Pastor J.

  • DAY of DESTINY
    DAY of DESTINY THE MYSTERY OF THE SEVENTH DAY By Carsten Johnsen 1982 Carsten Johnson Printed in USA by: US Business Specialties Yucaipa, California 92399 Preface This book was accepted for publication by Review and Herald Publishing Association more than a decade ago. In fact, its acceptance seemed enthusiastic and unanimous. But then, suddenly and unexpectedly, it was dropped. The only reason alleged by the Book Editor of those days, in a letter to the author, was the following: The book was too un-popular to guarantee the sale of at least 5000 copies within a limited period of time, necessary in order to "break even." A couple of years later the manuscript was accepted for publication by Andrews University Press, but again unexpectedly dropped. This time the reason given was: The book was too popular (not sufficiently academic, particularly in its style). The author happens to know some other reasons why the men whose verdict is decisive in matters of this order, will tend to go against the publication of such a book. And the reader will soon understand a good deal--and, by and by, more and more--of the great battle which is here going on. But the more urgent would it seem that the book be made available to a wide group of readers who will be greatly benefited, and pleased, to receive the unusual information it provides regarding some highly controversial topics. You may of course be among those disturbed by an increasing awareness that an unprecedented drama is in the process of shaking the very foundations of our lives in terms of having time-honored and long-cherished beliefs overthrown in circles of serious Bible students from whom you would never have expected it.

  • Tocado Por Nuestros Sentimientos
    TTOOCCAADDOO PPOORR NNUUEESSTTRROOSS SSEENNTTIIMMIIEENNTTOOSS Jean R. Zurcher 1 Prefacio Desde que yo era un niño pequeño, al comienzo de 1920, mis padres me enseñaron que el Hijo de Dios vino a este mundo con la herencia física semejante a la de cualquier otro bebé humano. Sin destacar Su línea de ascendencia de pecadores, ellos me contaron de Raab y David, y enfatizaban que, a pesar de Su herencia física, Jesús vivió una vida perfecta como niño, joven y adulto. Ellos me decían aun que Cristo comprendía mis tentaciones, pues fue tentado como yo, y que deseaba conferirme poder para vencer como El lo hizo. Eso me impresionó profundamente, pues me ayudó a ver a Jesús no apenas como mi Salvador, sino como un ejemplo, y a creer que por Su poder yo podría vivir una vida victoriosa. En años posteriores aprendí que la enseñanza de mis padres con respecto a Jesús estaba bien apoyada en la Biblia, y que Ellen G. White, la mensajera del Señor para la iglesia remanente, dejó clara esa verdad en numerosas declaraciones, como las que siguen a continuación: 2 “Que los niños tengan en mente que el niño Jesús tomó sobre Sí mismo la naturaleza humana, en semejanza de carne pecaminosa, y fue tentado por Satanás como todos los niños lo son. Él fue capaz de resistir a las tentaciones de Satanás a través de la dependencia del divino poder de Su Padre celestial, mientras estuviese sujeto a Su voluntad y obediente a todos Sus mandamientos”. Youth’s Intructor, 23 de Agosto de 1894. “Jesús tuvo vuestra edad.

  • Sda Fundamental Beliefs 2020 Pdf
    Sda fundamental beliefs 2020 pdf Continue Erwin Taylor Even if you only have a fleeting interest in the evolution of Adventist theology, you may be wondering why suddenly there is so much attention paid to the Adventist Fundamental Faith No 6? (FB6). Some readers may know that until 1980 the FB6 theme was never part of any Adventist statement of faith. If it's so important now, why does the Adventist Church take so long to include it as a fundamental faith? And now, only three decades later, what's the problem with wording? Perhaps it would be helpful to make sure that we are all familiar with the current FB6 text. Here it is: 6. Creation. God is the Creator of Everything and has revealed in Scripture a true account of his creative activity. Six days later the Lord made heaven and earth and all life on earth, and rested on the seventh day of this first week. Thus, He established Saturday as the eternal memorial to His completed work. The first man and woman were made in the image and likeness of God as the crowning glory of creation, given domination over the world, and entrusted with the responsibility of taking care of it. (General 1:1-31; General 2:1-25; 20:8-11; p.m. 19:1-6; 33:6, 9; 104; 11:3.) . Over the past couple of decades, significant amounts of ink and paper have been spent in Adventist publications on the left and right wings of the church discussing the positives and negatives, pros and cons of these 117 words.

Take care to assure them of your interest and sympa thy. Help them by your prayers, and let them know that you do it. Ministry of Healing, pp. 492, 493. God desires to unite His workers by a common sympathy, a pure affection. It is the atmosphere of Christlike love surrounding the soul of the believer that makes him a savor of life unto life, and enables God to bless his efforts. Christianity builds no walls of separation between man and his fellow-man, but binds human beings to God and to one another. Gos pel Workers, p. 140. We need not begin by trying to love one another. The love of Christ in the heart is -what is needed. When self is submerged in Christ, true love springs forth spontaneously. In patient forbearance we shall conquer.

  • Cifetime of `Uninterrupted Service
    ,46.4awc-oet -4A December 1973 "--4 Vol. 4o No. 4 Organ of the Euro -Africa Division Ravi The Quarterly Review wishes to join its sister periodicals in honoring Alfred Vaucher, one of the long-time workers of the Euro-Africa Division. Elder Vaucher entered the work in October, 1903, when he was 16 years old. Although he has served as a Bible worker, preacher, and administrator, it is as a Bible teacher at our seminaries in France and Italy that his influence has been greatest. Today hundreds of his students are extending his ministry in many lands. Alfred Vaucher is the grandson of Mrs. Catherine Revel, the first SDA in Europe. Like other pioneers who had the courage to step out from long-established churches, Mrs. Revel knew what she believed and passed this certainty on to her grandson, along with a deep love for the Scriptures. An avid Bible student, Elder Vaucher has shared his findings in his Histoire du Salut (History of Salvation), an excellent text on Bible doctrines. He is now working on an enlarged fourth edition of this work, along with his Alfred Vaucher teaching at the Italian Secondary School. As one considers the life of this outstanding teacher, Bible student, and completely humble man, one wonders what is the source of his vitality and mental vigor. In his article about Elder Vaucher, Daniel Walther wrote, "I think I know. "A few years ago Vaucher and I attended a conference in the Waldensian Valleys, where he was born in 1887. We shared a room in the guest house of the Waldensian college.
