Club Adventist
Welcome with open arms fellow believers who don’t see things the way you do.
And don’t jump all over them every time they do or say something you don’t agree with
– even when it seems that they are strong on opinions but weak in the faith department.
Remember, they have their own history to deal with. Treat them gently. Romans 14.1: The Message

Sorry-- no cover pic

This book was temporarily and accidently displayed on adventistbookcenter.com and during that time we received an onlne order for it. But I don't think it's officially released yet. It didn't come up on the website for me today.

So-- you can file this in the back of your mind for the near future :)

George Knight is one of those authors that make you think. This book, though small, will do that also.

What happens when Seventh-Day Adventist churches lose (or ignore/avoid) the apocalyptic message from the thrust of their modern ministry?

Interesting book! Watch for it!

If it comes from George Knight ... it will be good.

Weird. How did he get an advance copy???? The ABC online doesn't even have a listing for it and Amazon is taking orders. Why is the ABC so behind?

I have no idea! He could have been sent one by the author himself. It was a bizarre twist that we even knew about it (read the introductory post).

Here is the cover image. I laughed a little reading these posts, as it was my fault that the book was posted early on AdventistBookCenter.com (I work at the Review & Herald), and I had already sent the information to Amazon before realizing this so that is why it was available on their website and not the ABCs for a couple of weeks. But it is available now: http://www.adventistbookcenter.com/olink.tpl?sku=9780828023856

If you've read it, why would (or are) the Seventh-Day Adventist churches losing (or ignoring/avoiding) the apocalyptic message from the thrust of their modern ministry? Is this world-wide or mostly in the West?

Why? I wish I knew...

I am currently attending a church that week after week features snippets, either quotes in sermons or videos, of other mainstream Christian authors. THAT pastor was one I particularly told about the book.

I'll buy the book today at the Loma Linda ABC along with the LeRoy Moore book about Questions On Doctrine. I just finished Herbert Douglass' book on QOD. It was outstanding.
