The Shaking Of Adventism

In The Shaking of Adventism, Geoffrey J. Paxton examines the theological identity of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in light of historic Protestant teaching on salvation. He highlights tensions between Adventist distinctives and the Reformation principle of justification by faith alone, questioning whether Adventism leans toward legalism. Paxton’s analysis sparked debate within Adventist circles, challenging the denomination to reconsider how it presents Christ’s righteousness and grace. The book remains significant for discussions about Adventist theology, ecumenism, and the balance between doctrinal distinctives and the centrality of the gospel.
