The time has come for Seventh-day Adventists<br />

to know that nei<strong>the</strong>r "Evangelical" nor<br />

"Traditional" Adventism will suffice in <strong>the</strong> final<br />

crisis. Nei<strong>the</strong>r one is sufficient nor able to win <strong>the</strong><br />

war <strong>the</strong> dragon wages against <strong>the</strong> "remnant."<br />

Are We Abraham's Seed?<br />

The grand truth that brought <strong>the</strong> Seventh-day<br />

Adventist Church into being, and which sustains its<br />

divine mandate and nurtures its destiny, is <strong>the</strong> truth<br />

which Evangelicals ridicule <strong>the</strong> most. And <strong>the</strong>y are<br />

not alone. Within Adventist circles <strong>the</strong> subtle<br />

underground movement goes on unabated to<br />

nullify and destroy <strong>the</strong> sanctuary/judgment<br />

teaching. The consequence of this blind warfare<br />

has not been perceived.<br />

Evangelicals are pleased to call <strong>the</strong> sanctuary<br />

teaching a "face-saving device," whereas it was a<br />

confirmation of faith. It is <strong>the</strong> most distinctive of<br />

all Adventist beliefs. With <strong>the</strong> Sabbath it gives<br />

support and meaning to <strong>the</strong> whole plan of salvation<br />
