The Forgotten Pillar

The Forgotten Pillar
Are We Standing on the Right Foundation?
Some have been disfellowshipped for standing on the very platform of truth God established at the beginning of our work. This platform was built upon "fundamental principles which were based on unquestionable authority"—principles our pioneers, guided by the Holy Spirit, forged through prayerful Bible study.
This is more than a historical debate; it is a profound matter of conscience. As Adventists, we declare that the Bible is our only creed. But when humanly-crafted statements become a test of fellowship, we risk compromising the sacred liberty of conscience that is the bedrock of Protestantism—the principle that our conscience is captive only to the Word of God.
This conflict has led to a deep and growing identity crisis within Adventism. Who are we? How have we arrived at a place where the foundational beliefs of pioneers like James White, Joseph Bates, and J.N. Andrews are now considered grounds for dismissal?
The Forgotten Pillar confronts this crisis head-on. This book is not about speculation; it is an answer that meticulously traces our history to solve the urgent questions of today. By examining the Kellogg crisis, the inspired warnings of Ellen White, and the original "Fundamental Principles," this book uncovers a crucial, forgotten truth that can:
- Restore our original Adventist identity.
- Clarify the foundational doctrine on the Personality of God.
- Strengthen your confidence in the Spirit of Prophecy.
We are told that "we have nothing to fear for the future, except as we shall forget the way the Lord has led us, and His teaching in our past history."It is time to remember.
Download The Forgotten Pillar to rediscover the unshakable foundation of our faith and find your footing for the final storm.
Description
If you identify yourself as a Seventh-day Adventist and you care about your church, sooner or later, if not already, you will find yourself and your church in an identity crisis. There are many groups of people identifying themselves as Seventh-day Adventists, yet they share divergent views on our most prominent doctrines, like the doctrine on God, the Sanctuary service, investigative judgment, etc. The objective of this book is to root Seventh-day Adventists in their original identity, the very identity God powerfully established in raising the Seventh-day Adventist Church in the beginning. We have had identity crises before; we had a big one in the time of Ellen White. This was the Kellogg crsis. As a response to this crisis, God provided the solution to every other crisis we would face in the future, through the writings of Ellen White. The solution is to harken unto the truths which we have received in the beginning of our movement. These truths are called the Pillars of our Faith. If we forget any pillar, the crisis will inevitably come—and we’re in one. We have forgotten one crucial pillar. This pillar is called "the personality of God''. It is an answer to the question, is God a person, and what is the quality that characterizes God to be a person?
Today, we most often answer this question differently than our pioneers have. This question touches different views of God, and offers several responses to the proclamation of the first angel in the fourteenth chapter of Revelation. But none should be left in darkness regarding this matter, since God gave abundant light in the beginning of our movement, and again approved it as the answer to the Kellogg crisis. The Spirit of Prophecy tells us that God will, again, approve this message in our time. Find out the answers and rediscover the true Adventist identity.
