By Paul Priest  |  3 December 2021  | Nature is God’s creation and it should inform our interpretation of Scripture. Because it is impossible to deny the existence of hominid fossils, they demand to be part of our interpretation of creation. Can we form a model that incorporates both the hominids and Adam? The answer […]

by Loren Seibold  |  2 December 2021  | So, once again, this happens: A man[1] in a position of influence and trust does or says something harmful. Something a Christian—much less someone people look up to as a role model—shouldn’t say or do. It shouldn’t surprise us anymore. This is a truth about human beings—all […]

by Paul Annala  |  30 November 2021  |   I’ve been following Pastor Ted Wilson’s official Facebook page, and according to that, he seems to be busy. He’s been touring the Philippines. We see Ted Wilson welcomed by people waving flags. Ted Wilson welcomed by a uniformed Pathfinder troop, saluting him. Ted Wilson met by big colored […]

by Lindsey Abston Painter  |  26 November 2021  | If you’ve been following Adventist Today’s reporting or just about any other Adventist news source, social media, or even the Washington Post, you have heard the saga of Burnett Robinson, until this week pastor of the Grand Concourse church in the Bronx.

by Alvin Masarira  |  25 November 21  | One of the most intriguing statements Jesus made is in John 8: “He who has no sin, let him cast the first stone.” The story of a woman caught in adultery has stirred some debate among Christians since there is no mention of the man with whom […]

by Elle Berry  |  24 November 2021  | I was five years old when I tattled on him. Of course I told a grown-up; what else would I do at five? It’s a fine line between tattling and asking for help when you are only five years old. How could I possibly know the difference? […]

by Stephen Ferguson  |  14 November 2021  | “For if while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of His Son.” (Romans 5:10) Renowned atheist Richard Dawkins once said, in his award-winning book The God Delusion: “The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: […]

by Joni Bell  |  17 November 2021  | I was an only child for almost four years. What a blissful experience! The world revolved around me. Meals were planned around my likes and dislikes.  Any toys brought into the home were unquestionably mine; no thought of sharing ever entered my mind. My mother tended to […]

by John McLarty  |  17 November 2021  | Of course, as believers, we would prefer to say this differently. We would say that doing right is the truest, purest interpretation of God’s words. If obeying God’s words leads someone to mistreat people, we would argue that the perpetrator has misunderstood God and that God’s words […]

by John McLarty  |  16 November 2021  | Sometimes, doing the right thing means countermanding the very words of God. This sounds blasphemous, but it is plainly taught in the Bible. Example No. 1: Jesus in Matthew 5 Jesus declares: “It has been said, ‘Whoever divorces his wife, let him give her a certificate of […]

By Paul Priest  |  12 November 2021  |   Some religious viewpoints completely disregard the findings of science as it relates to the creation of the earth.  We Seventh-day Adventists, for example, have traditionally held a 6-day creation, 6,000-year chronology as a fundamental belief. This interpretation is based on Ussher’s flawed chronology, reinforced by Ellen White’s […]
