More Adventist Heritage Stories
October 22 is a memorable date for Adventists the Great
Disappointment day, when 170 years back in 1844 over 250,000 Christians
hoped that William Miller was right, and Jesus would come to this earth, to
end the pain and suffering forever. Yet, here we are, 170 years later, still
hearing of wars, pestilence, disasters, violence with no end in sight.
This past Wednesday the Canadian capital was reeling in chaos, pain,
shock, and confusion, as violence erupted at the core of our government by a
misguided gunman whose misconception of Gods will took lives. As I teach
World Religions class I always bring up the fact that the name Allah used
by Muslims is the same as used by early Jewish and Syriac Christians, who
spoke Aramaic and used Peshita as their Bible. It is a generic word, same
as English term God which may mean different things to different cultures.
Hence, what really matters is how we understand Who God Is, not just by
what name we call Him.
There is a significant difference between a god who collapsed on
himself, is self-centered, is disconnected from life, creation and ongoing
experiences, and is a transcendent principle, and God who is involved with
and in His Creation at all times, going through each experience with his
creatures. There is a huge difference between god who uses his creation
and makes creation do things for him, and the God who does everything for
creation, who serves creation, who invests in and even sacrifices Himself,
limits Himself for the sake of His Creation.
Our early pioneers emerged from an assortment of religious
experiences and denominations, often with different perspectives on Who
God is and what is His Will. Church historians like to point out the fact that
most of our pioneers differed with understanding of God. Through decades
of searching the Bible and being guided by the Spirit of Prophecy our church
had formulated statements on how we understand God. The very first
doctrine had been set entitled The Scripture Holy Word of God with
emphasis that God is interested in us knowing and understanding Him. God
invites us to reason together as He reveals Himself through people He
chooses, at all times in different places, in different ways. The Bible is a
collection of peoples experience of God Revelation. God reveals Himself!
The very next statement of our faith asserts that we believe in God the
Father, Son and Holy Spirit, three in one, of one nature but different functions
and wills always working inseparably, as Ellen G. White put it three living
persons of the heavenly trio, three great powers --the Father, the Son, and
the Holy Spirit. Creation and Redemption are inseparable and cannot be
understood without proper understanding of God as Trinity, eternal Love and
eternal Savior. And our theology determines the rest of our.logies,
guides how we live, how we relate to one another.
On Wednesday night elder Clara Baptiste led the prayer meeting with
focus on the primacy of the Word of God. Read Psalm 119, the ode to Gods
Law and Word, and reflect how important it is for our faith identity.

your servant, pastor Alex Golovenko
