Ellen White

Welcome to nonsda.org, founded on the Internet in 2007.

Hello friends, I'm Brother Anderson, and I was a member of the SDA Church for 33 years. In 1998, I founded the Ellen White Research Project (www.ellenwhite.org) to share with people the truth I discovered about Ellen White. Since then, over two million visitors have also had the joy of discovering the truth about Mrs. White.

Of the 100,000+ e-mail's I have received over the last decade, one subject kept coming up over and over again:

"Okay Brother Anderson, I'll admit Ellen White failed the tests of a prophet, but what is wrong with SDA Doctrines? They are, after all, based upon the Bible!"

In 1997, I had been challenged to compare SDA truths against Bible truths, and as a result of that study, I knew some SDA doctrines could not stand up to the Biblical test. However, I wanted to be diligent and leave no stone unturned so that I would not mislead anyone. So, I spent the entire year of 2007 going back and carefully re-studying Seventh-day Adventist doctrines in depth, comparing them against the Bible. I have synthesized the information I discovered into twelve easy-to-understand studies. Those studies expose how Adventist Truth is different from Bible Truth. If you are an SDA or thinking of becoming an SDA I challenge you to examine your faith to see if it is really based entirely upon the Bible.

No Church is Above Criticism

In many ways, the SDA Church is a good church, with many positive attributes. I appreciate their emphasis on health reform, their teaching that hell does not burn forever, and their dedication. Adventists have accomplished plenty of good through their health and educational institutions. I have no doubt that God uses the SDA Church just as He works through all the various churches to accomplish His mission of love and salvation. Despite all my positive feelings for the SDA Church, no church is above criticism. (In fact, for many years the SDA Church has criticized Roman Catholicism and Sunday-keeping Protestants for various reasons.) Criticism challenges us, and causes us to examine our beliefs closer. My utmost desire is for the SDA Church to reform, to bring its doctrines in line with the Bible, so that it can be an even better instrument in God's hands.

I was forced to leave the SDA Church because my conscience would not permit me to stay in a church that taught things that were not in the Bible. Many others leave the SDA Church for the same reason. I believe the SDA Church would be more prosperous and more of a light to this world if they would discard their unbiblical teachings and focus on taking the gospel message to all the world. That is why this web site is here: To help individuals understand how Bible Truth is different from SDA Truth, and to agitate for reform in the SDA system.

The day that Seventh-day Adventism renounces all extra-biblical and non-biblical teachings I will close down this web site and join with them in full fellowship. I hope and believe that day will come soon. But until then, I am compelled to speak the truth in love.
