On July 10, 2007, Pope Benedict XVI reasserted the absolute authority of the Roman Catholic Church when he approved a document stating that Protestant churches were not ³true churches² and therefore did not have the 'means of salvation.' Not surprisingly, this created a stir among other Christians including Seventh-day Adventists. In Challenges to the Remnant, Moore responds to these accusations. He traces God¹s true remnant throughout history as they are faced with three major challenges- persecution, deception, and the acceptance and fulfillment of the special mission God has for them. As we near the end of earth's history, God has given the Seventh-day Adventist Church a special message for the end times. We must share it. But we will need to know more than a list of proof texts. Above all else, our mission is to know Jesus personally and then to lift Him up before others as the Savior of the world
