When is it a Good Idea Not to Follow Bible Counsel?

Sabbath School Net Posted on September 20, 2017 by William EarnhardtFebruary 13, 2018avatar
Open Bible

A few years ago I was talking to a head elder, who had rushed to judgment and taken it upon himself to take “executive” action against another church member. I asked him if he had followed the counsel in Matthew 18, and talked to the member first. He boldly told me he did not need … Continue reading –>

Are Adventists Old-Covenant Christians? (part 2)

Sabbath School Net Posted on June 1, 2017 by Marcos David TorresJune 25, 2024avatar
Covenant with the Lord

As mentioned in the last post, Adventism’s understanding of the covenants is not well known either to us, our inquirers or our critics. Some critics even go as far as to suggest that Adventism’s covenant progression is an unheard-of new heresy. Part of the difficulty in responding to these charges is that, while Adventists have historically written … Continue reading –>

Adventism Oozes Social Justice – Do you?

Sabbath School Net Posted on September 23, 2016 by Marcos David TorresMay 14, 2024avatar
Spirit-led Community - image of interlocking hands of various races.

The recent events taking place across the US have been both heart breaking and mind boggling. As a millennial Adventist I can remember a time when I quite comfortably praised the decline of racial tension and looked happily into a future in which such things would be relegated to the basement of civilization. Progress was … Continue reading –>

Hot Lunch and Syrian Refugees

Sabbath School Net Posted on November 24, 2015 by Lars JustinenDecember 25, 2015avatar

Back in 1991 my wife and I leased an old red brick building in downtown Nampa, Idaho, as our art studio. For $200/month we got 5,000 square feet of space on the second floor of a 100-year-old building, including a large room we used as our photo studio. After a year we ended up hiring … Continue reading –>

When We Think the Church is Wrong!

Sabbath School Net Posted on June 22, 2015 by Maurice AshtonFebruary 2, 2016avatar

In July the Seventh-day Adventist Church General Conference Session will vote on the much-discussed contentious issue of whether individual divisions should ordain women pastors. Since enough has been written about women’s ordination to fill several terabytes of data space, we are not going to discuss the subject on Sabbath School Net. I am not a prophet … Continue reading –>

We are Not the Home Team

Sabbath School Net Posted on June 9, 2015 by William EarnhardtJune 16, 2015avatar

“If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth” (Colossians 3:1-2, NKJV) A few years ago I had baptismal studies with an elderly man named Oscar. He had just … Continue reading –>

Baptism of Children

Sabbath School Net Posted on May 22, 2015 by William EarnhardtJune 7, 2019avatar

People often ask me how old  a child should be before they can be baptized. Many are surprised to hear I was just seven when I was baptized. I still remember the night – I was lying in bed, thinking about the cross and Jesus’ love for me. I decided I wanted to be baptized. I … Continue reading –>

Christ’s Radical Treatment of Women

Sabbath School Net Posted on May 5, 2015 by Inge AndersonNovember 10, 2016avatar
http://www.goodsalt.com/details/prcas1390.html?r=ssnet

It’s hard for us to imagine ourselves in a world where devout men pray every morning on arising, “God I thank You that you did not create me a Gentile, a slave or a woman.” 1 It was in such a society that Jesus ministered. The prominent role played by women in society, as related … Continue reading –>

The Radical Politics of Our First GC President, John Byington

Sabbath School Net Posted on April 15, 2015 by Brian StrayerSeptember 7, 2018Brian Strayer
John Byington photo

Probably the image most Adventists have of Elder John Byington is based on the only photograph they’ve ever seen which portrays the aged patriarch as a silver-haired, balding, bearded, wrinkled, scowling preacher in a black frockcoat and white shirt buttoned tightly around the neck. Consequently, they might be surprised to learn that he was a … Continue reading –>

A Wise Lesson From a Humble Deacon

Sabbath School Net Posted on January 18, 2015 by William EarnhardtFebruary 14, 2016avatar
The Pharisee and the Tax Collector

I, Wisdom, live together with good judgment. I know where to discover knowledge and discernment. All who fear the Lord will hate evil. Therefore, I hate pride and arrogance, corruption and perverse speech. Proverbs 8:12-13 NLT It is impossible for a truly wise person to be proud and arrogant. Wisdom is talking in the quoted … Continue reading –>
