Download or read book Why Our Teenagers Leave the Church written by Roger L. Dudley and published by Review and Herald Pub Assoc. This book was released on 2000 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 40 and 50 per cent of Adventist youth leave the church in their 20s. Why? How can we keep them? How can we win them back? This book is the culmination of a magnificent obsession. For more than ten years Roger Dudley traced the lives of 1500 teenagers as they grew up and, often, grew disillusioned. Refusing to let them leave in peace, Dudley bombarded them with questionnaires. Many of them answered. This is their story. Dudley puts faces on the statistics by focusing in on individual case studies. He cites the heart-wrenching testimony of desperately lonely people surrounded by uncaring members. They want to belong, to be needed, to be heard, to be loved. They made some mistakes. We share their pain and their dreams, and feel the dissonant cadences of their troubled hearts. Some who never left explain what kept them in the church. Many who left want to return. "Without God, life is hell," wrote one. If you want to know what the youth of your church are not telling you, read this book. It includes the responses of a group of kids who were asked to design the ideal church, and an appendix explaining the causes of "adolescent heresy," the conflict spawned by the teenage struggle for autonomy.

Download or read book Out of Adventism written by Jerry A. Gladson and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From its humble beginnings in the nineteenth century, Seventh-day Adventism has remarkably grown to become one of America's largest, home-grown faiths, numbering nearly nineteen million members worldwide. Yet Adventism harbors dark secrets within its history. This is the true story of how one Adventist pastor, and university and seminary professor discovered these dark secrets and learned through painful, personal experience that neither the denomination nor its doctrine could be trusted. As his odyssey takes him from pastoral assignments in rural and urban congregations and finally into teaching religion at an Adventist university, he suddenly finds himself caught up in the maelstrom of a church's greatest theological crisis. For him, the denomination's theology and practice agonizingly unravel, forcing him to choose between loyalty to his church, his vocation, and his personal integrity. Rich in anecdotes and personal experiences, Out of Adventism guides readers interested in religious history, cults, and sects through the ins and outs of a religious community in crisis. Along the way, the reader not only gets an insider's view of Adventism, but also discovers a careful critique of the peculiar teachings of Seventh-day Adventism.

This book was released on 2023-05-28 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you tried to be one who submits not realizing that it is Islamic? That is what happens when someone is groomed into a cult. It becomes a way of life until one finds that they are blending several religions into one and assuming that God is there without the Holy Spirit. There may be a god there but it is not the God of the Jews, Tetragrammaton shortened to the syllables YHVH. He extended salvation through all Jews, not just Jesus. John 4:22 says, "You worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews." These words were stated in red denoting that they spoken by Jesus himself. Jesus died on the cross with the inscription INRI for the "King of the Jews" only. YHVH also changed his name to symbolically reflect that he is the God of the Jews and Gentiles to Jehovah JHVH still the shortened form of Tetragrammaton. Sabbath services are strictly forbidden on Saturdays in Judaism and Islam. When Ellen G. White received her vision to create a new Christian denomination, she thought in her mind that she had "carteblanche" to create an entirely new church system. She did not have "carteblanche" from Jesus or Jehovah as Seventh Day Adventists were an extension of bewildered Jehovah's Witnesses. Seventh Day Adventists are considered one of "The Asherah's" cults. This denomination is well known for attracting everyone to do the same things the same way "when" this is NOT wisdom. It is Satanic. Discover the meaning behind the man Jesus. And all that the Abrahamic religions of Islam, Judaism to include Jewish Kabbalah, and Christianity have to offer to the neophyte and seasoned believer, prayerfully arrive at a place of truism where witches are stunned and find freedom in bowing at the name of Kyrios who is Jesus, Emmanuel, and his father JHVH.
