Danile 8:14, The Day of Atonement and the Investigative Judgment
$20.00
By Desmond Ford, 694 pages

Very few copies of this book are now in print. It will soon be gone. This book has made a major impact on the SDA denomination. It contains material not easy to come by elsewhere. While some parts are difficult to read, those who want to do a thorough study of this topic will find this invaluable source material. It was in studying Dr. Fords original "Glacier View Manuscript" of approximately one thousand pages, that helped Dale Ratzlaff reach the conclusion that the SDA investigative judgment could not be supported from the Bible and was contrary to the new covenant gospel of grace.

Desmond Ford
$21.95
Desmond Ford, by Milton Hook,404 pages, ISBN 0-9786141-9-4, is the biography of Dr. Desmond Ford who has been a leading but controversial figure in Adventism. This book gives an overview of Ford's life and ministry in the SDA church. It lists many names and places showing how the Adventist church was essentially dishonest in the way his trail, known as Glacier View, was conducted.

We do not agree with everything taught by Des Ford nor what is written in this book. However, the history recorded therein is an essential to a full understanding of the ongoing crisis in Adventism regrading their 1844 sanctuary theology.

Healing Spiritual Abuse
$15.00
By Ken Blue, 166 pages, ISBN 978-0-8308-1660-6

"With the kind of biblical insight and pastoral wisdom we have come to expect of Ken Blue, this book probes the conscience of those who unknowingly practice spiritual abuse by contrasting Jesus' empowering ministry to others with a Pharisaical exploitation of others in order to gain power. For those who have been and are victims of spiritual abuse under the cover of ecclesiastical office and authority, reading this book will open windows to freedom and healing."—Ray Anderson, Professor of Theology and Ministry, Fuller Theological Seminary.

Life of Mrs.E.G. White, Seventh-day Adventist Prophet
$12.95
By D.M. Canright, 291 original page, 185 pages, ISBN 0-9664531-0-7

Canright was a contemporary of Ellen White and published this book in 1916, the year of his death. In the Preface of this book, in speaking of Seventh-day Adventists, Canright says: "They have published several books bearing on her [Ellen White's] life and work, in which they have gathered together and construed everything possible in her favor. From reading these books one would never know that she ever made a mistake, plagiarized, practiced deception, or wrote alleged inspired writings which had to be suppressed. The public, therefore, has a right to know the other side of the life of Mrs. White." Click on title link or book picture for more information.

My Cup Overflows
$12.95
by Carolyn Ratzlaff, 256 pages, ISBN 978-0-9747679-6-3

This book is more than a fascinating story of God's leading a girl and boy from mere childhood through 50--and counting--years of committed marriage. Carolyn remembers well the early attraction she had for Dale and Dale for Carolyn. During their high school years the teachers repeated to them the words of the then popular song, "They Said We're Too Young to Be In Love". Both Carolyn and Dale took this advice as the leading of the Lord. Yes, perhaps at that time they were to young to make lasting commitments, but as the story unfolds the reader will discover that this was a relationship--dare we say--that was a "God thing".

The Cultic Doctrine of Seventh-day Adventism
$16.95
By Dale Ratzlaff, 388 pages, ISBN 978-0-9747679-7-0

Cultic Doctrine is a thorough study of Adventism's unique teaching of the 1844 cleansing of the heavenly sanctuary and the investigative judgment. It evaluates this doctrine five different ways. It documents the beginnings of the Adventist church, listing William Miller's 15 "proofs" that Christ would come in 1843. It documents Adventist's flip-flop teaching of the "shut door of mercy" showing that Ellen G. White endorsed this teaching through her visions. It has over 700 footnotes but is easy to read.

The Sabbath and the Lord's Day
$7.95
By H.M. Riggle, 158 pages,ISBN 0-962-7546-7-6

This book was first published in 1922. LAM Publications, LLC, is happy to make this book again available for those who wish to do a thorough a study of the Sabbath/Sunday topic.

Sunday is, and has been, the traditional day of worship for the vast majority of Christendom. Because of this fact, numerous Christians—including many pastors—have just accepted this practice without careful study. This has played into the hands of sabbatarians who have well-though-out arguments that are very compelling for those who are not thoroughly grounded in good biblical hermeneutics.

Truth Led Me Out
$12.95
By Dale Ratzlaff, 160 pages, ISBN 978-0-97476-79-5-6,

Many people have asked me why a fourth-generation Seventh-day Adventist pastor would leave the Adventist denomination. For Adventists, who see themselves as the “true remnant church of Bible prophecy”, the only answer that fits their theological paradigm is apostasy. This is why I am continually being accused of leaving because I wanted to live in open sin. When I respond that I left because of thorough Bible study and a desire to be true to my conscience, I am often met with a blank, questioning stare. For many this is simply incomprehensible. How can one leave “the truth” and not go into error? I have written this book for three main reasons. Click on title link or book picture for more information.

White Out
$9.95
By Dirk Anderson, 160 pages, ISBN 0-9627546-5-X

White Out covers a wide range of subject matter as it relates to Ellen White and her writings. The facts brought to light are vastly different from what is taught in “Spirit of Prophecy Classes” in Adventist education. If it were not for the fact that Ellen White claimed divine inspiration for her writings, often stating that she received her information directly through visions from God or in conversations with “her angel”, one would think it unfair to treat a deceased religious leader of her reputation with such scrutiny. Yet not to do so is to continue the “white out”. Click on title link or book picture for more information.
