By Educate Truth Staff This forty-eight slide presentation briefly outlines the history of fundamental belief six. It sheds light on why La Sierra University can accept Belief 6 and still continue to endorse long ages of life on earth. It is also noteworthy that two of LSU’s previous presidents were key players in the wording of Belief 6. Belief 6 needs to be amended in General Conference Session as soon as possible to reflect the four historic Adventist landmarks on creation which are recently affirmed in “A Response to an Affirmation of ...

In a recent letter to President Randal Wisbey of La Sierra University, David Lara said, “I want you to know I now will do my best to discourage any student I have contact with from attending La Sierra.” What students is he talking about? David is the safety director at Monterey Bay Academy in California. He has been working in the Adventist school system for 27 years, the last 21 years at MBA. David’s personal connection with LSU has been his two daughters, who attended there. David believes God will lead in whatever manner He deems necessary ...

During GYC’s annual conference “Carry the Light,” (Dec. 16, 2004) Jan Paulsen answered questions cold prior to his talk “Consider How You Ought To Live.” After his introduction, the audio cuts (:30 sec) to the second question regarding Seventh-day Adventist professors that do not actively uphold some of the distinctive beliefs of the church.

The following comments are from alleged students of La Sierra University. If their comments are any reflection of the general tenor of LSU students, it is no wonder Louie Bishop and Carlos Cerna have been the only students to speak out against the promotion of evolution at the university. Hopefully this is a misrepresentation of the type of faith that is being formed at LSU, but it appears that some students do reflect the attitudes and beliefs of these professors. These students could possibly be your kids after four years at LSU, but perhaps that’s ...

In a memo from Jerry Page, dated Dec. 2009, addressed to all pastors, office staff, bible workers, principals, head elders, and prayer partners, the Nov. 12 board decisions were shared. CCC is the second conference (Michigan Conference being the first) we know of that has used its official memos to communicate the ongoing developments at LSU, illustrating the concern and importance with which church leadership has taken in this issue.

Seventh-day Adventists accept the Bible as their only creed and hold certain fundamental beliefs to be the teaching of the Holy Scriptures. The twenty-eight fundamental beliefs summarized here, and officially voted by the General Conference in session are representative of “the truth as it is in Jesus” (Ephesians 4:21) that Seventh-day Adventists around the globe cherish and proclaim. Is there a limit to how many of these fundamental beliefs a professor may openly reject and still be considered an adequate representative of the church?(surveys)

Source: Adventist Today Update 2/2/10: It has been brought to our attention that the original date of November 6, 2009, is missing from the La Sierra University Faculty Senate’s resolution, as reported above. Erv Taylor, our publisher asked me to post the Senate’s resolution. Since no date came with it I assumed that it was very recent. This is a good lesson not to assume anything when it comes to posting on the AT site. As the online editor of Adventist Today, and on behalf of the AT staff, we sincerely apologize for any misunderstanding ...

By Educate Truth Staff It has come to our attention that there seems to be some fraud in AToday’s reporting of the LSU Faculty Senate’s resolution. The resolution was voted on Nov. 6, 2009. However, AToday left out the crucial date the resolution was passed, reporting the vote as if it had happened recently. Either AToday or its source omitted the date. It is unknown why AToday published a document that is almost three months old, spinning the story to make it appear the faculty senate is in defiance of the LSU Board of Trustees’ ...

By Educate Truth Staff Recently, a document from the LSU Faculty Senate was leaked to Adventist Today, who alleged it was unanimously approved. However, we have learned from an LSU source the vote was not entirely unanimous, at least in the sense that not everyone voted. There was at least one senator who did not vote. This senator waited for an opportunity to abstain, but was not given the opportunity, according to our source. During the course of the meeting one individual expressed concern that the resolution would be leaked before the Board ...
