In some areas of the world field the Seventh-day Adventist Church is challenged by the so-called Reform Movement. Some pastors and church members may not yet have encountered that movement and may know little about it. Some time ago BRI published the book The Seventh-day Adventist Reform Movement, by Helmut H. Kramer. It is an informed, accurate, and compassionate tracing of the origins, teachings, and reasons why this schismatic group developed. The author was at one time President of the North American branch of this group. The book is available from the BRI for the special discounted price of US $3.50 (http://biblicalresearch.gc.adventist.org/bookshop.htm). Gerhard Pfandl has provided us with a brief summary of the history and teachings of that movement. In addition, we have asked Elder Kramer to prepare a statement for our newsletter. We are happy to publish his appeal.
