In chapter one of this volume, I give a brief but insightful and sufficient history of the roots of Seventh-day Adventism and its theological framework. Adventism started on a very bad foundation that is fraught with false prophecies, stubbornness, religious fervor and fanaticism, biblical and theological dishonesty, irrationality, and rampant proof-texting in attempts to support absurd theories.
Chapter two will expose you to the supreme and ultimate authority in Adventism, their prophetess Ellen G. White. You will discover her role in their doctrines and denominational life. She is the center around which Adventism revolves psychologically, theologically, doctrinally, spiritually, organizationally, and socially.
In chapters three to eight, I deal with the most unique doctrine to Adventists---the Investigative Judgement. I show how and why it was invented, that it creates a lot of salvational uncertainty and it is a biblical heresy. I also contrast the SDA Investigative Judgement with the biblical Gospel.
Adventists approach Scripture with a lot of faulty hermeneutical principles and assumptions. In chapter nine, I highlight eleven of those and, in over 100 pages, walk you through how to refute them. Because of what Ellen White teaches on a variety of issues, they make a lot of false assumptions about the Law, the Sabbath, the Ten Commandments, the Gospel, biblical terminologies, the Roman Catholic Church and Protestant Christianity, Sunday worship, etc., you will be equipped to biblically refute their assumptions.
Chapters ten through twelve deeply dive into the Adventist doctrine that Jesus is Michael the Archangel. You will discover that this is an egregiously false doctrine that undermines the deity of Jesus and that neither Judaism nor Early Christians believed and taught this.
Seventh-day Adventists believe and teach that Satan is the scapegoat and sin-bearer revealed in the Day of Atonement ritual in Leviticus 16. The implications for this are very grave. This teaching is very heretical. You will see that this false doctrine is grounded on statements of Ellen White, then distortions of few texts to make it seem biblically true. Not only do I expose the grotesque nature and conclusion about this teaching, but I also refute all their arguments. I prove that Jesus is our scapegoat and sin-bearer. He is the spotless goat that was sacrificed and also the spotless one sent away to bear our sins.
In chapters fourteen and fifteen, I unveil the Adventist doctrine of sinless perfectionism. In order to potentially pass the Investigative Judgement and be saved, Adventists must become sinlessly perfect through law-keeping and obeying the myriads of legalistic rules and regulations that Ellen White has laid down for them. This doctrine evokes a lot of fear, paranoia, depression, salvational angst, and hopelessness for many SDAs. It engenders salvation by works through and through. I refute this false doctrine and prove that the flesh cannot become sinlessly perfect in this life. The flesh can only be subdued in this life, and will be eradicated when Jesus returns.
In chapter sixteen, "What is the Adventist Health Message All About?" you will be exposed to why Adventists place so much emphasis on health, subscribe to aspects of the Old Covenant levitical dietary laws, why they are generally vegans and vegetarians, why they do not drink tea, coffee, caffeinated beverages, consume dairy products, etc., and are so judgemental and condemning towards Christians on these issues. Their prophetess Ellen White has enjoined such rules on them for moral, spiritual, and salvational reasons.
Lastly, in chapter seventeen I provide a biblical survey of the levitical dietary laws and refutations of the Adventist health message, assumptions, their gross twisting of scores of biblical texts to try to justify this false doctrine.
