Download or read book Seventh Day Adventists Ellen G White and Salvation written by R. Van Orden and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2018-06-11 with total page 609 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book started out as an intense personal study by the author to evaluate and confirm his beliefs about God and salvation in regard to the teaching of the Seventh-Day Adventist Church. Why is it that so many Seventh-Day Adventists do not have the assurance of salvation? What criteria in the Bible and what specifically in Ellen G. White's writings might lead someone to believe they were not fit for heaven, that they did not qualify to be there, that God would not forgive them, and there was more required than just relying on Jesus's sacrifice to cover their sins? If they did not meet a strict set of rules, would God cast them aside in the end? In this book, you will find out just who are the saved, who are the lost, and what happens to them in the end and what end-times will look like according to Ellen G. White and the SDA Church. The author estimates he has spent well in excess of ten thousand hours and has read over fifteen thousand pages of material over a seven-year period in the preparation of this book. It is the author's hope and prayer that this book will make the reader question, not their belief in the saving grace of God and the loving sacrifice of Jesus but rather question anything that might have come between them and that grace.

Book excerpt: The Christian nonfiction book reveals the truth about Ellen G. White and her writings for the Seventh Day Adventist Church. After working with the church and attending Bible studies with members, the author and his wife discovered troubling inconsistencies between the Bible and the teachings of the Seventh Day Adventist Church's leader. He found that she lied and plagiarized in her writings in an attempt to brainwash her followers. The non-biblical church is a false, bogus church that should not be spreading its propaganda, mind bending, and delusion. The church uses their false prophetess's writings and teachings as the final word instead of the Bible. Many pastors will not admit to relying on her writing, but they lean on Ellen G. White's literature to teach their religion and their beliefs. The author discusses Ellen G. White's fake visions, fictional writing, imposed rules, doctrinal beliefs, the Seventh Day Adventist's twenty-eight fundamental beliefs, the mark of the beast, Ellen G. White's contradictions, William Miller and his followers.

Download or read book The Struggle for Resources in Local Seventh day Adventist Churches written by Travis Manners and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2013 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Local churches need resources in order to operate effectively and thrive. Yet within the Seventh-day Adventist church system, a large percentage of the tithes and offerings collected by its local congregations, are redistributed away from these same congregations, with only a small portion being returned in terms of staffing and support. This impacts on the ministry and mission the local congregation can provide. The Struggle for Resources shows that while the Seventh-day Adventist Church must remain a global movement, it cannot continue to do so at the expense of the local church. Steps have been taken in the right direction in terms of funding assistance for new church buildings, staffing-for-growth taking hold in some regions as well as the introduction of more flexible structures. But is this enough to restore the balance? Adventism, with its global mandate, must never forget that the local church is the church, and the stronger the local churches become, the stronger the entire body will be.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Counsels in this volume, written by Ellen G. White to members of the Seventh-day Adventist church, were penned while Mrs. White was living in Australia. Arranged in topical order, volume 6 expands upon the lines of instruction provided in earlier volumes. During the years covered by this volume, Mrs. White was actively involved in founding an Adventist College in Avondale, Australia. With its rural setting, emphasis on the industrial program, and other features, Avondale became-in many respects-a "pattern" school for the Seventh-day Adventist Church. As a result, instruction penned to mold this school covers many details of about location, finance, curriculum, discipline, and administration that would benefit schools around the world. The Adventist church in Australia was also growing during that time, and Ellen White took an active part in furthering that work (including preaching). During the times of this volume, Adventist became increasingly mission minded. In a greater way than before, they saw the whole world as a field of labor. In addition to firing the imaginations of young and old alike, the building and launching of the mission boat, "Pitcairn," in California in 1890 focused attention on the importance of a round-the-world mission program. Reports of the Pitcairn voyages, as it pioneered the mission work in the South Sea Islands, were eagerly read by all. During this eventful time, colporteurs and other missionaries took the work to India, Africa, and South America as well. Additional colleges, worker training schools, and publishing houses also sprang up around the world. As the work in Battle Creek, Michigan continued to grow, warnings were issued against the tendency to centralize the work in large denominational centers. During this time, steps were taken to better organize the administration of the Adventist Church through the set-up of union conferences. In time, a pattern was set-up which would be followed throughout the denomination. Reminders about the importance of healthful living, together with counsel for medical missionary workers, are also found in this volume. In addition to these counsel, Ellen White also wrote "Patriarchs and Prophets," "Steps to Christ," "Gospel Workers," Christian Education," "Christ Our Saviour," "The Desire of Ages," "Christ's Object Lessons," and "Thoughts from the Mount of Blessing" during this time. The addition of volume 6 to the growing series of Testimonies for the Church deeply impressed Seventh-day Adventists with the direct way in which God continued to lead and guide His people.
