In this episode of Heritage & Hope Ministries, Alex and James Bowen sit down with Pastor Dennis Priebe and Matthew Priebe for a discussion on one of the most controversial theological shifts in modern Seventh-day Adventist history. From the publication of Questions on Doctrine in 1957 to the rise of Desmond Ford at Pacific Union College, we look at how Adventist views on righteousness by faith, the human nature of Christ, the investigative judgment, and victory over sin began to change within the church.
Pastor Dennis Priebe shares his personal experiences from the Pacific Union College era, interactions surrounding Desmond Ford’s teachings, and why these debates still shape Adventism today.
Can Christians truly overcome sin through the power of Christ? Did Adventism move away from its original understanding of salvation? What role did Questions on Doctrine play in changing the direction of the church? We tackle those questions head-on through history, theology, and firsthand testimony.
