Steve Mahan: @Faith: Why do we need FB#6 when we have the Bible?

Steve, Please read or listen to the liberals and progressives in our SDA Church. They have their own “interpretation” of what the
Bible says or “means” or “reads.”

“Day” doesn’t really mean a real 24 hour day. Homosexuality isn’t really the “kind” we have today.

Any topic or belief is simply “reinterpreted” through the eyes of our postmodern society.

Steve Mahan: @Faith: Why do we need FB#6 when we have the Bible?

Well, one of the obvious reasons is that we have people in our own SDA Church who say the Bible doesn’t really mean what it actually says, but is mainly “allegory” “myths” “fairy tales” bogus copycat statements made by some other guys, etc.


Lawrence Geraty, Fritz Guy, and the Framing of Fundamental Belief #6

GMF: This is, in my view, one of the most significant and well documented articles which shows clearly how we got snookered into a general statement which purposely omits significant aspects of what the SDA church teaches.

Snookering is one of the main ploys of guys like Fritz Guy, Lawrence Geraty, and Randall Wisbey. Take a look at how they have literally “sold out” La Sierra to the secular world over the past 20 or so years.

I’m discouraged about the prospects of traditional Adventism, because traditionalists tend to leave the church and start independent ministries, whereas liberals use every scrap of political guile and skill and planning and networking and lobbying to liberalize the OFFICIAL church. They’ve been working very hard for decades, and they now control great swaths of the official church.

You are so right, Dave. Especially here in California. The SCC, SECC, and NCC are almost totally controlled by liberals, progressives, and by those who are to afraid to stand up to these heretics.

What exactly does “more inclusive” mean? The Northern California Conference uses this term in their literature, without explaining what it really means.

@David Read, Can ET or Advindicate get an interview with somebody who actually knows, first hand, what went on with this AAA accreditation? What “deals” were made and by whom, why, and with what “strings” attached?

@Sean Pitman, I agree with the lack of transparency at LLU and virtually anywhere in our SDA system. The hiding behind closed doors is rampant, not only at LLU, but on the Conference level, Union, and even the GC. Try to ask anybody a really specific question. All you get is either nothing or another set of vague responses. Try it some time, and you will see what I mean.

Any insiders know WHY this happened? Was it part of a “deal” with AAA for accreditation?
