Truth Led Me Out by Dale Ratzlaff

Articles, Books, Sermons and Personal Testimonies

  • Why would a successful, fourth-generation Seventh-day Adventist pastor and Bible teacher with a secure financial future leave that ministry?
  • Why in his search for truth were certain biblical questions “off limits”?
  • Why did the leaders of the church privately admit doctrinal error, yet publicly proclaim the “truth” of Adventism?
  • Why do Adventist leaders at all levels of the organization continue to do the same today?

In Truth Led Me Out, Ratzlaff shares his personal journey from being a conservative, stanch believer in the writings of Ellen White and the Seventh-day Adventist church as the “true, remnant church of Bible prophecy” to simply being a Christian. The gripping, narrative writing style allows the reader to enter into the task of the evaluation of the discovered evidence and the emotional trauma of having to choose between conscience and the financial rewards of the status quo and the predicted damnation for leaving the church.

Knowing well the history of Adventism and how its leaders have either tarnished or rewritten the history of those who have made public its errors, Ratzlaff includes names, places, conversations, events and information for the sake of history.

This book is for those who wish to better understand Adventism. It gives an inside look at the workings of the church which outwardly appears to be a truth-seeking church and still presents itself as the only, true, “remnant church of Bible Prophecy.”
