"Jesus was nice, wasn't he? He wasn't wimpy nice, to be sure. His was niceness with guts."
This memorable line from Dr. C. Mervyn Maxwell captures something profound about Christ's character—and what we're called to reflect.
Maxwell explains that Jesus had "the gift of constructive confrontation." He dared to tell Nicodemus he needed to be born again—and said it in such a way that Nicodemus came to love Him for it. He called out hypocrisy in religious leaders with the voice of a man offering to be executed in their place.
This is the kind of character that grows from the fruit of the Spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.
Maxwell's challenge: "Please don't cheat yourself by saying it can't be done. These characteristics are the fruit of the Spirit. They develop in people who are 'born of the Spirit.'"
What does this look like practically? It means choosing, by God's grace, to have an entirely new attitude—not just praying for self-control, but experiencing transformation of nature through the Holy Spirit.
This is what 1844 calls us to: becoming like Jesus in both character and mission.

What if the greatest disappointment in Christian history had a silver lining brighter than anyone imagined?

Church historian Dr. C. Mervyn Maxwell calls 1844 a "magnificent disappointment." Why? Because the silver lining was Jesus Christ Himself and the many new things He began doing for His people.

In this profound article, Maxwell explains how 1844 is:
📖 The basic reason the Seventh-day Adventist movement exists
🕊️ The spiritual reason for our classic lifestyle
🌍 The principal reason behind our vast mission program
✝️ The most persuasive reason for seeking to be like Jesus

Maxwell writes: "If 1844 is, first of all, a special message about Jesus, it is also the unique reason that Seventh-day Adventists are 'Adventists,' the motivating reason why they keep the seventh day."

But this isn't just about doctrine—it's about character transformation in preparation for Christ's return.

Discover what the sanctuary message means for Christian living today.

Is the traditional Adventist claim to be the "remnant" still valid, or is it time to rethink?

With some voices within Adventism now questioning this core identity—suggesting the remnant is invisible, future, or broader than one church—this article confronts the debate head-on.

Dive into a scriptural analysis of Daniel and Revelation to see if the foundations of this belief stand up to scrutiny or if a radical re-evaluation is needed.
