While this web site attempts to include sources from a wide range of Christian persuasions, you may notice references to quite a number of Seventh-day Adventist sources. That is largely because of the fairly-unique Great Controversy theme that has featured largely in their theology. That understanding helps answer those big questions like “why is there so much suffering in the world?” “why doesn’t God prevent tragedies?” On many of the web sites and in the writings of SDA authors you will see references to various early church pioneers. While such writers have often provided useful commentary on the scriptures, this web site strives, as much as possible, to focus on the Bible as the final authoritative word in understanding what God is really like.
