dc.description.abstract<p>The goal in each writing is to investigate the original sources as careful as possible to enhance the quality of the research. A number of articles are new discoveries or presenting surprising confirmation to old truths already known in the Seventh-day Adventist denomination. One can term these articles “Affirmatory” in character since this researcher is working with a hermeneutics of affirmation and not a hermeneutics of suspicion, which is destructive and leads to nihilism. The purpose is to contribute not with less than acceptable science, but with rational empiricism selecting from the whole of science in ambiguous situations that serve the Word of God rather than those that don’t.</p>
