| Summary: | A. Leroy Moore believes that we don't understand the real nature of truth, which is paradoxical in nature. It can have two poles that at first glance may seem contradictory. For us to have the whole of truth, we must listen to each side of a conflict. And this requires that we return to an important pillar of the Protestant Reformation--the priesthood of believers.Just as we have a vertical relationship with God, so we also have a horizontal on eiwth others in the body of Christ. God reveals His truth in His Word, but He helps us to understand more fully by the Spirit's guidance working through the whole body of His people. Not only must we submit to God; we must humbly submit one to another in the community of faith.Using historical examples from within Adventism, Moore shows how the principles of the paradoxical nature of truth and the pillar of the priesthood of believers could have helped the church avoid many of its present conflicts.Moore writes not only from long study but also from practical experience. He has helped many who have abandoned the church to see truth's fuller nature and to reunite with Christ's whole body of believers. - Part One: Paradoxical Truth or Hostile Languages.Chapter 1: Most of Us See Only Half the F's.Chapter 2: My Personal Journey.Chapter 3: Uniting the Poles of Truth.Chapter 4: Paradoxical Thinking and Character Development.Chapter 5: Where the Rubber Meets the Road.Chapter 6: Preparing to Examine History and Theology.Part Two: Facing Ourselves in History.Chapter 7: The Purpose of History Is to Understand Ourselves.Chapter 8: Response to Divine Reproof: The Key to Minneapolis.Chapter 9: Conflict Over the Law in Galatians.Chapter 10: Priesthood of Believers: Twofold Key to Unity.Part Three: Conflcit in Relation to Covenant Concepts.Chapter 11: Did Ellen White Speak a Language of Law?.Chapter 12: Loyalty: Test of True Faith.Chapter 13: Pre-Fall or Post-Fall Nature?.Chapter 14: Perfection, Source of Conflcit: Key to Unity.Chapter 15: Final At-one-ment.Chapter 16: Pulling Things Together |
