By Arnie Suntag In an article published by The Adventist Review on April 22 entitled “Viral Lies”, James D. Standish, who has served in rather prominent positions for the General Conference, argued that Seventh-day Adventists who question the safety and efficacy of the Covid-19 vaccine should be treated as miscreants and opposed. His carefully crafted […]
Truth is Fallen in the Street
By Arnie Suntag We are in the midst of perhaps the most aggressive movement in modern history to disparage and suppress the truth, right along with those who fervently advocate for it. Whether it is through critical theory, neurolinguistics, or fundamental Marxist philosophy, our society is subtly and surreptitiously being transformed into a stark, unthinking […]
The Final Coffin Nail for Adventist Education
by Arnie Suntag The Bible admonishes us that a time will come when we forsake our foundational principles for the approval of worldly authorities and powers: “Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils” (1 Timothy 4:1). As […]
The Alarm that Never Sounded
By Arnie Suntag Things are not always what they seem. This expression, dating back to ancient Rome and the words of Gaius Julius Phaedrus, although historically an axiom and a commonly used phrase in the vernacular, no longer seems to resonate with those living in the world today. I say that almost derisively, because many […]
The Game is Afoot
by Elder Arnie Suntag Our country is slowly being unraveled from the inside out. Over this past year, it has received a makeover that has transformed it from a God-fearing nation of hopes and dreams into an atheistic circus sideshow replete with characters and behaviors that belong in prisons and psychiatric wards rather than in […]
The New Abnormal
Like many in our country today, I have grown weary of talking about the impact created by COVID-19, but in the wake of people being assaulted and dragged out of retail stores by angry crowds for refusing to wear a mask, I can no longer remain reticent. This entire orchestrated affair has gone too far, […]
The Betrayal of Our Faith
By Elder Arnie Suntag As the children of Israel stood paralyzed with fear from the fiery serpents that had entered the camp killing many with their venomous bite, Moses was instructed by the Lord to make a serpent of brass on a pole and to encourage those who had been bitten to gaze upon it […]
The Elephant in the Room
By Elder Arnie Suntag Jesus said that in the last days the deceptions would be so great that, if possible, even the very elect would be deceived (Matt 24:24). In order to be true, such deceptions would have to be so well designed and orchestrated, that even those closest to the Lord could, if not […]
The LGBTQ Movement and Christianity
By Elder Arnie Suntag We live in a world today where it is virtually impossible to make a statement that challenges social or political ideologies without offending someone or drawing the ire of political activists, ultimately opening the door to personal attack, vilification, and censure. So many have become caught up in the pervasive, albeit […]
Crisis or Contrivance?
By Elder Arnie Suntag As millions ponder how we arrived at such a fearsome moment in the history of our world, the words of Rahm Emanuel, the former mayor of Chicago, resonate in the minds of those who desperately want honest answers to the conundrum that has engulfed their lives. The phrase he coined, “never […]
