Receiving the Word: How New Approaches to the Bible Impact Our Biblical Faith and Lifestyle
An amazingly clear and competent presentation which will supply Seventh-day Adventists with a reasoned statement of their own position and challenge liberals to reexamine their fundamental presuppositions. I wish it the widest circulation. --Raoul Dederen, Professor Emeritus of Systematic Theology, Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary, Andrews University.Receiving the Word is one of the few provocative books that has actually succeeded in moving beyond surface labels and rhetorical intimidations into the very core of the present Seventh-day Adventist identity crisis. No committed Seventh-day Adventist should ever miss the reading of this extremely insightful work. --Alberto R. Timm, Professor of Church History and Historical Theology, Brazil Adventist College (Central Campus)The author has given us much food for thought in his careful analysis of the various approaches to the study of Scripture. I commend him for his forthright presentation of the pros and cons of these methods of study. Seventh-day Adventists have historically been known as a people who believe in the Bible as the inspired Word of God. We must not deviate from this belief. --Paul Gordon, Ellen G. White Estate, Silver Spring, MD
