There is a ministry, called Think about Eternity, that focuses on counter-cult outreach and apologetics.

This is how they describe Adventism:

Seventh-day Adventism has probably succeeded better than any other counterfeit Christianity group at selling itself to evangelical Christians as one of their own. It has been said that they have the whitest fleece of any of the wolves out there. One reason for this is that there actually are more true Christians in this group than in other counterfeit Christian groups. Accurate articulations of the true gospel can be found in some SDA literature. Their distinctive doctrines, however, cannot be reconciled to that gospel, and indeed constitute false gospels themselves.

I thought it was a very perceptive description. And I'm thankful that the evangelical perception of Adventism is starting to line up with reality. Slowly but surely.

Not all ministries can pick all the wolves out of the sheep, but I'm glad that some can!

Even Walter Martin was fooled.

Oh, how cool! That site is by Tim and Suzie Oliver! One of them (I think Tim) had a period of time in Adventism after he had been in Mormonism, I think it was.

They are a wonderful couple; they attended an FAF weekend a couple of years ago.

I'm so glad to see this site!
