Are Adventists more obsessed with the cosmic conflict than
non-Adventists? If so, what could be the reason?
The Controversy and
Its Players
- How would you respond to someone who insisted that the cosmic battle was only in the mind?
- What impact, if any, would polytheism have on the doctrine of the great controversy?
Lucifer’s Fall
- How can we tell when a description is going beyond the literal and into the metaphorical – such as from the king of Babylon or Tyre to a description of Lucifer?
- Is it wrong to be proud of something good?
God’s Weapon
- What could God have meant when in addressing the serpent, he said, “your seed?”
- How do we know that God was not referring to literal snakes when he mentioned bruising the head and the heel?
Satan’s Fight
- How is the great controversy taught through the sacrificial system, and how did Satan pervert the teaching to suit him?
- Is it possible to be aware of the work of Satan in our minds? If so, how?
Destinies
- Is it possible to be neutral in the conflict between good and evil? Why or why not?
- Can you think or want to be on one side but end upon the other side? How could this happen?
