“somehow the feeling is conveyed that if we could only get all of our young people to believe in a 7-day 24-hour literal Creation week, we would have solid and faithful church members…. Perhaps there are more important aspects of our church that we need to worry about.”  

Richard, How’s this? The literal creation story is a foundational principle in our SDA Church. Maybe it’s not “important” enough for you, but for millions of bible-believing SDA’s it IS! I say, as Shane and Sean seem to believe, that is IS worth fighting for. [edit]

[edit]

Ron,It’s easy to get sucked into these kinds of blogs but they usually result in a never ending and useless circle of misinterpretation and character assassination where this “dialogue” is at the present time. I’ve written enough and those reading my posts and your responses will understand why I need to focus my time elsewhere. May God bless you. May others understand your methods better than I do so that when you are evangelizing the non-church attending citizens of our country, which I assume is one of your goals, they will be led to Adventism in spite of the weaknesses both of us have as frail followers of Jesus Christ.  

Richard, I don’t see any “character assassinations” going on here. Shane and Sean have done a great job at presenting truthful materials. Maybe you don’t like them, but many of us feel this is very important for our SDA Church to know.

The “non-church attendees”, as well as those SDA’s that attend church, need truthful information as presented by God’s Word. [edit]

Richard, Your insinuation that most of your class left the Church because they learned too much adventism is [a bit of a stretch]. What would have helped them? [edit]

Ron,This dialogue is headed no where…

I used quotations in my previous post from your post. Since you don’t think literal creation is important enough to defend, what IS more important? [edit]

This is the typical garbage that has been coming out of PUC for many years. People wonder why our colleges are losing students, despite the fact that we take more and more non-SDAs each year.


My Goal for La Sierra University

The reason the LaSierra situation has gone uncorrected so long is that most of our administrators have exactly the sort of political instincts that Dan Jackson has. They are politicians and consensus builders; they want to keep the peace and make the trains run on time. But the circumstances call for men of principle, hard men who are willing to stand for the right “though the heavens fall,” i.e., regardless who is offended and loudly complains.

Dave, I agree with you. Jackson’s trying to play on “both teams” is not going to go well for him.

Unfortunately, politics is the “SOP” of many of our SDA officials, Jackson being just one. “Political instincts” are the rule, instead of actually doing what is “right” according to what we know in God’s Word.


Bradley, Beach and Kaatz retain attorney

Shane Hilde: Think big fish: LSU or the Seventh-day Adventist Church.Graham might not have followed procedure with these men, but I don’t know what the procedure is. I’ve read what the process is in the faculty handbook, but I don’t know if that applies to administrative positions which are at will employees. If it does apply to them, then it appears the process was not followed.

Trustees book says, in 6,9,F, that the Trustes may “discontinue” virtually anyone working at the university.

Does that mean to “fire” or to “force their resignation? Seems like it does.
