Comment on A little-known history about Belief 6 by Don Ludgate.

It seems that the further we get away from the Spirit of Prophecy and the Bible the closer we get to accepting man made theories as truth. [edit]

If our church truly believes in “Sola Scriptura” then the teacher who is the “rotten apple in the barrel” needs to be given a janitorial job in place of continuing to “spoil the barrel”. If it does not accept the Bible only, then I for one shall renounce my association with the Seventh-Day Adventist church and refuse to hand out church literature or promote the Seventh-Day Adventist church as God’s remnant church in the future.

Why is it taking so long to find a professor to replace the one(s) who is (are) in error from a biblical point of view?


Are LSU professors breaking the 8th commandment?
Whereas we are no longer wanting to be different in our educational system since we have acquiesced to federal and state requirements for certification
by their Boards of Education we no longer can follow the divinely appointed plan to educate our youth. Thus creeping compromise has set in. We are caught, so to speak, between “a rock and a hard spot.” Like the democratic political party’s economics, we have allowed ourselves to start down an ever increasingly steep slippery slope. No one in a position of authority or recognized by the church as having theological acumen, in years gone by, up to now, has ventured to challenge conference/union committees or school/hospital boards as they sought to find enough funding to populate their institutions with paying students or patients. We have, in the interests of ever increasing in size, chased the almighty dollar as opposed to following the direction of God through the inspired pen. Now we are faced with a dilemma. Do we follow the dictates of State/Federal Boards of Education or the council of our own prophet. Who has the moral stamina to join Pastor Renner and Mr. Hilde and be counted? I pray God that each SDA school and hospital board will take a stand “…tho the heavens fall” to maintain or re-evaluate their adherence to the core values of our beloved faith regardless of the “influential leadership” that may happen to sit on those boards and the desire to appease wealthy individuals who may threaten to withdraw their financial support. God has a thousand ways to resolve financial problems if we have the faith that David Gates and others like him have. Let us test Him so that our own faith may be increased. However, we need to get rid of the things in our own lives which separate us from God so that He will not hear our petitions both individually and collectively. When we accomplish that through much prayer and fasting then God will work for us. May God be with each administrator, board member, teacher, and doctor that they may be convicted enough to serve Him only. In the words of one of the old testament leaders may each of us have the courage to say with him, …”as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”
