Abstract

In today’s Christian world, theology tends to be despised; and to my amazement, this aversion seems to be spreading even within the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Theological education in some circles is unwelcome and unessential. Furthermore, the belief in the imminent return of Jesus Christ has led some to reject not only general higher education but theology schools as well. In this article, from the eschatological context in which we live, the author points out that a true, broad, and balanced pastoral education is a sine qua non to acquiring right biblical-theological training. Adventist theology prepares people to search for the truth, know the truth, love the truth, follow the truth, live the truth, proclaim the truth, and be ready for the Second Coming of Christ.
