In Memory of Russell Roland Standish — 1933–2008

Dear friends,

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of a dear friend, prolific writer, and passionate speaker, Dr. Russell Standish (founder of Remnant Ministry and Highwood Health Retreat in Australia), the twin brother of Dr. Colin Standish (founder and president of Hartland Institute, Rapidan, VA, USA). Some have had the opportunity to become acquainted with Russell through his camp meeting messages, and others have read some of the many books that he authored and co-authored.

For those who would like to learn more about this champion of the faith, here is a collection of some of the many books that Russell Standish had a part in writing. We have discounted them for a limited time only, to make them as affordable as possible.

Note: The books listed below are divided into these three categories:

#APRO1RS

Adventism Proclaimed
by Russell R. & Colin D. Standish

Set in the context of the three angels' messages, this is the message which will go forth with unprecedented power, symbolized by the loud cry of the fourth angel of Revelation 18:1-5, lightening the earth with his glory. It is a message that will go "to every nation, and kindred, and tongue and people" (Revelation 14:6). These messages, so vital that the eternal destiny of all mankind depends upon their reception, are carefully explained by the authors, both of whom are ordained ministers. This book aims to motivate preparation for the coming of the Lord and to point out the urgency of sharing this message with others. (202 pages)

#AVIN1RS
$9.95 $7.45

Adventism Vindicated
by Russell R. & Colin D. Standish

In the late 1970s the "new theology" was rapidly engulfing a confused and uncertain SDA church as a reaction to legalistic principles. Tragically, many who found the impotency of legalism were deceived into accepting a theology which claims that there are no divine conditions of salvation, a belief that denies the truth that victorious Christian living is both possible and mandated in Scripture. This book is far more relevant today than when it was first written. For this reason, the authors decided to leave its content unchanged, for it continues to provide answers to the challenges that have come through later writers and that continue to be current.

The Greatest of All Prophets
by Russell R. & Colin D. Standish

In 2004, under the guise of protecting the Spirit of Prophecy, the South Pacific Division launched an eight-pronged attack against the Testimonies of God. This book thoroughly documents this attack and the parallel defaming of Scripture. The "errors" of the Scriptures and the Spirit of Prophecy are examined in detail and refuted. The book sets forth the inerrant, infallible character of God-inspired messages and establishes our faith, essential for those who love and trust God and truly desire salvation. It sets forth and exposes the fearful sophistries which are deceiving God's people today. This book is for every church leader, theologian, pastor, elder, and member. It is a book for its time.

The General Conference Confronts Apostasy
by Russell R. & Colin D. Standish

No other historical volume has documented in detail the manner in which church leaders have dealt with apostasy in our midst from its earliest times. Commencing with fanatical worship services, moving to the Messenger and the Marian offshoots, the entry of what is now commonly known as the "new theology" with the defection of Pastor Dudley Canright, this book takes up the earth-shattering 1888 General Conference session, the promotion of pantheism, the holy flesh movement of Indiana in 1900, hierarchical church governance, the issue of self-supporting work, the military issue of World War I, and the trend-setting 1919 Bible conference, presenting the impact of each one upon God's church today.

#GSSB1RS
$16.95 $12.70

The Gathering Storm and The Storm Burst
by Russell R. Standish & Colin D. Standish

The Seventh-day Adventist Church experienced a tragic and dramatic redirection of its doctrines and practices beginning in the mid-1950s. In this book, the authors have traced the only authentic, comprehensive development of this tragic area in God's remnant Church. They saw the play and interplay of many of those who were key figures in the deliberate and planned efforts of men, some in high places, to undermine the pillars of our faith. The authors detail how the new theology was imported from Australia to the United States and other parts of the world. The authors also document the earnest efforts of many leaders and laity to stay the plague of unfaithfulness to the truth. (421 pages)

Half a Century of Apostasy
by Russell R. & Colin D. Standish

The 50-year period of 1956 to 2006 was the Mount Carmel era in God's Seventh-day Adventist Church. Elijah's words echo in our ears today. "How long halt ye between two opinions? if the Lord be God, follow him but if Baal, then follow him." (1 Kings 18:21) Never, in any book outside Scripture and the Spirit of Prophecy, has a volume been written which has set forth so clearly the manifest departure from God's pure truth by His church. Each brief chapter, like the Elijah message, is an urgent call for reform in the power of the Holy Spirit. It is time to open the eyes of the spiritually blind. Under God's guidance it is the authors' prayer that this book will achieve this aim in the hearts of sincere believers. (480 pages)

Holy Relics or Revelation
by Russell R. & Colin D. Standish

For the devout Christian, faith is anchored in the revealed Word. When Biblical archeology confirms the Scriptures, it stirs the heart. Biblical archaeologists have gathered data with painstaking effort. Their work proves the accuracy of the Bible. Yet mostly within a single decade, Ron Wyatt sought out and claimed the most amazing Biblical sites and relics. In this book, the Standish brothers examine the Wyatt claims in-depth, going beyond his videotaped claims. These findings can serve as a benchmark upon which Ron Wyatt's "discoveries" can be more carefully evaluated. (300 pages)

#QODO3RS
$13.95 $10.45

A History of Questions on Doctrine: Fidelity or Compromise
by Russell R. & Colin D. Standish

God chose the Seventh-day Adventist Church to undertake the most sacred work ever committed to humans. One of Satan's most successful strategies was the foisting of the book Questions on Doctrine upon God's precious church. As a result, the omega of apostasy has been strongly advanced. At Andrews University, October 2007, Russell Standish, was invited to present a paper to the QOD 50th Anniversary Conference. The paper presented by Russell analyzed the history of subterfuge, deception and intrigue that led up to and followed the publication of Questions on Doctrine. This book is a companion volume to the analysis of the theology of QOD, presented by Colin at the same Conference. (160 pages)

The Road to Rome
by Russell R. & Colin D. Standish

Ellen White wrote, "The church has turned back from following Christ, her Leader, and is steadily retreating toward Egypt." (Testimonies, vol. 1, p. 217. It is high time that we evaluate how far we have traveled down the road to Rome. With deep sensitivity and a passionate love for their church, the authors have uncovered what many will recognize as an orchestrated plan to systematically implement the catholicizing of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. The authors present this book with the sincere prayer that all who read will join the crusade, under the blood-stained banner of Prince Emmanuel, to expel the Satanic invasion from God's beloved church.

The Sepulchres Are Whited
by Russell R. & Colin D. Standish

We are at the end of the end of probationary time. If God's church is to receive the full outpouring of the latter rain, there must be a return to truth and righteousness. This alone will provide the unity that God can honor with His Spirit. This book is written to stimulate such a reformation in our ranks. (301 pages)

The Twenty-eight Fundamentals
by Russell R. & Colin D. Standish

Throughout the history of God's church on earth, the insinuation of apostasy has been achieved, not so much in open pronouncements, but by guile and stealth. Silence has been the major weapon upon which error has comfortably rested.

The Big Bang Exploded
by Russell R. & Colin D. Standish

For decades the "big bang" hypothesis has held sway as the dominant explanation of the origin of the universe, yet the determined efforts of scientists from many disciplines to provide powerful confirmation of this hypothesis have been strikingly elusive. The authors assert that the "big bang" theory and Darwin's proposal of natural selection are "spent, decayed and archaic theories." The Standish brothers seriously address some of the most startling challenges to this theory of origins. They present evidence which they assert supports, far more closely, the fiat creation concept than the evolutionary model. (218 pages)

Modern Bible Translations Unmasked
by Russell R. & Colin D. Standish

This fascinating book challenges the reader to consider two very serious problems with modern translations: first, the use of corrupted Greek manuscripts, and second, translational bias. While they are deeply concerned about the paraphrases and some of the efforts to translate the Bible into colloquial language, the authors are also deeply concerned about the more respected translations that are gaining great acceptance in today's society. The authors believe that the modern translations are designed to reinforce false teachings and erroneous gospel presentations and therefore are dangerous to our salvation. (228 pages)

The Mystery of Death
by Russell R. & Colin D. Standish

From times immemorial, death has both fascinated and mystified man. That every individual knows that death will eventually be his lot is without doubt. "For the living know that they shall die...." Ecclesiastes 9:5.

What happens, if anything, after death? Without doubt, this question has exercised the minds of the world's greatest thinkers. Total oblivion, posthumous "immortality," or reincarnation? These are some of the themes that modern man clings to, not knowing the truth. That truth is unveiled in the pages of The Mystery of Death, illuminated by the Word of God. (125 pages)

The Rapture, the End-Times and the Millennium
by Russell R. & Colin D. Standish

This book opens the reader's mind to a clear understanding of areas of the end time which have led to much perplexity among lay people and theologians alike. It is also guaranteed to open to the reader Biblical issues which, when understood in the light of Scripture, dispel many of the perplexities presently confronting those who are searching for a clear Biblical exposition regarding the last cataclysmic days of Earth's history.
