There is much diversity in our church, and it is a sign of a healthy church. It was never meant to be that every Adventist should march lock-step with every command coming from a hierarchy thus simulating the Nazi war machine that brought down the most advanced nation in existence at the time. A caveat must be mentioned. Issues can be debated that have no relevance to salvation but bedrock core doctrines of the Christian church must not be compromised under any circumstances. A college president denying the substitutionary death of our Lord is a prime example, and his defense of this heresy was published in one of our magazines that caused me to promptly cancel my subscription.
