“The Bible Tells Me So,” Part 3

by Richard W. Coffen | 8 July 2020 | I enjoyed writing my two essays (here’s the first, and here’s the second) on puzzling or misunderstood Bible texts. So here’s a third essay on this theme: that we must take Scripture seriously, although not always literally. God Hates Sinners A few years ago, I began reading […]

Two Texts That Revolutionized My Spiritual Outlook

Richard W. Coffen | 30 July 2018 | Even if you’ve spent a minimal amount of time “in the Word,” you’ve undoubtedly come across passages that revolutionized your thinking. Six years ago, as I reread a text commonly used by Seventh-day Adventist evangelists, I learned something so amazing I should have never ignored it! Then, […]

ADVENTIST TOMORROW—Fresh Ideas While Waiting for Jesus, by Jack Hoehn

ADVENTIST TOMORROW is a best-selling book for Adventist Today, with over 1,000 copies sold so far. A Sabbath-school at LLU has discussed selected chapters. It is being read by Adventist College and University students. It is read in Canada, in Australia, in South Africa, in Kenya and in Spain, Germany, Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. Even Clifford Goldstein told Jack he liked the chapter on Intoxicants and got a new idea from the chapter Not a Rib, “but not much else.” (Jack accepts this as good a review from Cliff as he could ever hope for!)

You too don’t have to agree with Jack to read the book. The ideas discussed are important and are very much topics of current interest. What is the Adventist view on abortions as needed health care or murder? Should Adventists vote–then who or what for? Should Adventists vote to protect the US 2^nd amendment or return to our historic position of “not-bearing arms.” Can we accept science and still believe in God? Is Genesis 1 an inspired summary of Creation or a detailed news report?

Readers are positive: “It’s a good read.” “ I have enjoyed it immensely.” “ A very valuable piece of work.” “Once I started it, I could not put it down.” “Very well written.” “An unprecedented and transformative rescue of Adventist thought.” “A genuine pleasure and a relief.” “An author should… make you think and maybe think a little differently than you did before. Jack…has accomplished this in spades!” “Added very richly to my heart, soul and mind.”
