The Unseen Realm: Recovering the supernatural worldview of the Bible
By Dr. Michael S. Heiser

The Unseen Realm explores the ancient worldview of the Bible, emphasizing the significance of the divine council and spiritual beings in understanding biblical narratives. He argues that many biblical passages take on new meaning when read through the lens of this supernatural perspective, revealing a complex spiritual world that interacts with humanity. Heiser’s work challenges traditional interpretations and encourages readers to reconsider how they understand key themes in Scripture.

The Origin of Evil Spirits: The Reception of Genesis 6:1-4 in Early Jewish Literature
By Archie T. Wright

The Origin of Evil Spirits examines how early Jewish literature interpreted Genesis 6:1-4, particularly the story of the “sons of God” and the Nephilim, as a foundational narrative for understanding the origin of evil spirits. He explores how this passage was developed in texts like 1 Enoch, Jubilees, and other Second Temple writings, linking the fall of the Watchers with the proliferation of evil in the world. Wright’s work highlights the influence of these interpretations on later Jewish and Christian thought regarding the nature of evil.

Theodicy of Love: Cosmic Conflict and the Problem of Evil
By John C. Peckham

Theodicy of Love presents a framework for understanding the problem of evil through the lens of cosmic conflict and divine love. He argues that God’s love is central to the existence of free will, which inherently allows for the possibility of evil, but also affirms God’s commitment to ultimate justice and restoration. Peckham’s work offers a balanced approach to theodicy, emphasizing both the seriousness of evil and the hope found in God’s loving and redemptive plan.

Who Plays A Role In Atonement?

In Seventh-Day Adventist theology, sins were not forgiven at the cross itself; instead, the cross served as the place where the atoning sacrifice was made. According to their teachings, sins would only be erased during a process known as the Investigative Judgment,...

To Meat or Not to Meat, That is the Question!

The legacy of Ellen G. White is one of profound influence and enduring controversy within the Adventist Church. Her writings and teachings, particularly on health reform, have shaped Adventist practices for generations. Yet, beneath the surface of her widely...

Drooping Flowers and Dead Leaves

Ellen White often made claims she attributed to ‘Divine’ revelation, but what happens when we critically examine these statements? Should such claims be accepted as truth simply because of their source? Many, including well-educated Seventh-day Adventists (SDAs), seem...

Is it Christian to Hold Others Accountable In or Out of the Pulpit?

What does a person do when they hear a sermon, whether it is from a pastor, elder, guest speaker, etc., where statements are made during this sermon that are clearly out of step with Scripture?  What really is our responsibility?  Well, it depends on the relationship...

A Record Keeping God?

Last week at the dinner table, a 'wait a minute' moment popped up as our family read, talked, and contemplated day two of our family Advent book.  I’m not sure if you have experienced this or not.  These are moments when you realize something you have been taught or...

Ellen White, Astronomy, and ‘Divine’ Manipulation

Steps to Christ? Or Steps to Something Else?

The book Steps to Christ, supposedly authored by Ellen White, is THE book that an Adventist would hand someone if they wanted to evangelize another Christian or non-Christian. In fact, many have come to know Christ by reading this exact book. Ty Gibson's personal...

Sabbath Is An Eternal Sign, So You Must Keep It… FOREVER!

Should we understand the Sabbath as an ‘eternal sign’ described in Exodus 31:12-17? Exodus 31:12-17 serves as a foundational text for Adventists to argue that Sabbath-keeping is mandatory for salvation, universally binding, and eternal. However, this passage is often...

Adventism Is The Truth; Therefore, It Is Biblical, Right?

Adventism has a gnostic feel to its 'truth.' Let me explain what I mean. Gnosticism is a collection of ancient religious ideas and spiritual beliefs that emerged around the first and second centuries AD. It emphasizes personal spiritual knowledge, or gnosis, over...

How Would We Identify Sin Without the Ten Commandments?

It's been longer than I've wanted since I last posted an article. I'm learning the importance of understanding how people arrive at their interpretations of Scripture. Words matter, and a person's hermeneutics matters!  When a faulty understanding of a word is applied...
