Comment on My Goal for La Sierra University by Charles.
Is there a parallel between this discussion board and the discussion between EGW and Kellog?
Is there a difference between pantheism and “theistic evolution”? Is it possible that TE is just a more matured version of pantheism?
How does this all relate to the “New Age Movement”?
Jesus warned us of overwhelming deceptions in the end time – just before his coming. Of what nature would those deceptions be? What is their origin and for what purpose?
SDA institutions of higher learning were never intended to be on the cutting edge of modern (worldly) “science”. They were intended as a safe place where Adventist families could confidently send their children with an assumption that they would be trained in the understanding a knowledge of timeless truth relating to FAITH as the way of our origins.
Centuries ago, the Waldenses had their own universities – wholly different from the Roman-influenced universities of the world. Can we not safely maintain our schools as harbors of safety for our children?
How close to “The End of the World” are we? It is a discussion I do not hear so much about – even from our pulpits. What are the signs? Is it too politically incorrect to talk, preach, teach about them anymore?
Jesus is coming very soon. It is time to fill our lamps with the sweet oil of God’s Holy Spirit. Those who do, will have no question as to how they came to be here.
I don’t think anyone has ever been won to “the truth” by losing an argument.

I have not seen any attacks on Gordon Beitz or Southern. Ohhh that all of our schools would have the faithful leadership that SAU has been blessed with.

@channel:
The spirit behind this post is self-evident and needs no comment. It plainly speaks for itself.

I agree with Nic on this.

No matter how the FBs are worded, there will be contention about it.
Anyone who has fully embraced this message realizes that the days to Jesus’ coming are few. Thus it behooves us to be about the work of proclaiming the unique ADVENTIST message to a world that is facing impending doom.
May I suggest the sermons of Jeremiah Davis. (can be found on Youtube)

@gene fortner: I don’t think anyone really knows what powers were being exercised on 9/11. Clearly the airliners were involved.
It was an event that changed the world in ways that top-down powers would yearn for.
No point in speculation… I think Veith probably was mistaken to do that deep dive and it seems that he has quietly backed away from it.
The thing we must focus on is to “Turn your eyes upon Jesus….” Clearly, we are in “the last days”.

@David Read: I find Veith’s “theorizing” regarding “conspiracies” to be spot on and on topic.
There is a great “conspiracy” – otherwise known as “The Great Controversy”. It is the ultimate reality of our rebellious little world today. AND it is the foundation of all of these other problems we deal with.
AND, IT WILL BE ENDING SOON!

Evidence that God is in control. LSU could become a beacon of light shining on the truth of our world an how we came to be here. That is as it should be.
La Sierra University gets 3-year AAA Accreditation
I believe we are involved in a Mount Carmel experience. As this world is hurling toward the great climactic “END”, we will see more and greater attacks against the truth by the great deceiver. The prophets of Baal will become bolder and more feverish. (Remember that the prophets of Baal on Mt Carmel were much from within the nation of Israel.)
What a day of reckoning it will be when “at such a time as we think not” that great cloud approaches this world. The signs today are loud and bold. Jesus is coming. Spread the word.
