This book candidly examines Seventh-day Adventist history and
doctrines. Beginning with self-appointed prophet William Miller who
convinced over 50,000 New Englanders that in1844 Christ would come
again in fiery judgment. Then the birth of Adventism as those who
explained that Miller had misunderstood the prophecy and judgement
had begun not on earth but in heaven. The book explores SDA
prophetess, Ellen White whose "visions" urge their members to
proclaim that in end-times all Christians worshipping on the first
day of the week will receive the Mark of the Beast, then hunt down
and torture Adventists. The book thoroughly documents the history
of Sunday church services to disabuse member's belief that those
who worship on Sunday are disobeying the fourth commandment.
Written to lift the wounded Adventist's eyes to Christ for healing;
however pastors, theologians, those with Adventist family,
neighbors, colleagues and friends will find this book a treasure in
understanding Adventism.

A really good read about Adventism for Christians
Fri, 14 Aug 2015 | Review
by: Stephen K.
Teresa and Arthur Beem resigned from the Adventist denomination in 2002. Their resignation letter was made public and was widely discussed in cyberspace. Since then, they have written a book to let people know about their experience in, and leaving, the Adventist movement. This is their continuing saga.
Their book, “It’s Ok Not To Be A Seventh-Day Adventist”, covers the problems with Adventist theology that need to be dealt with by those leaving, as well as those who remain. Adventism clearly needs a reform – from its practices regarding abortion, to the Sabbath, to theology that even its leaders admit can’t be confirmed using the Bible alone, which they claim is their standard.
They also have a blog with the same name.
For those who have left Adventism and feel guilt; for those Adventists who have family members who have left Adventism and wonder about the sincerity involved, and even whether or not their family members are still Christian; for those contemplating leaving; or simply for those who just want to know more about this religion … this is definitely worth reading.
