We as a church used to talk about "the message" and "the truth" when we spoke of ourselves and our mission. Nowadays we are more likely to hear the word "Adventism." Is this merely a change in terminology, or does it involve a difference in concepts? Some might reply that it's all the same. I say there is an important difference. Adventism is for Adventists, as Methodism is for Methodists and Catholicism is for Catholics. "The truth" and "the message" aren't just for Adventists. They're for everybody. |
