Welcome to
adventistlaymen.com, the web site of
Adventist Laymen's Foundation, publishers of Watchman,
What of the Night (WWN),
a monthly Thought Paper.
Other
Publications
We also publish booklets and
audiotapes on essential Bible topics, all oriented specifically towards
Seventh-day Adventists
who have a grounding in the fundamental doctrines of the Advent faith.
However, any seeker after Bible Truth will be led to a deeper study of vital
Biblical doctrines that are generally ignored by other Church communities,
or repudiated by them on superficial grounds.
Special Notice:

Due to Elder Grotheer's state of health please do not order
publications until further notice. |
WWN INDEX
(Yearly Indexes for Watchman, What of the Night?)

June, 2008
Throughout 2007 Elder Wm. H. Grotheer was
not prepared to authorize the disclosure of specific information about
the state of his health. He frequently stated his
intention to send out a letter to the readers of Watchman, What
of the Night? explaining his increasing disability on his own terms.
This did not happen before he was hospitalized after a fall in
the last week of December. Since then there has been
such a degree of deterioration in his condition that he is now unable to
carry out his intention.
During 2007, some of us observed a
progressive decline in the giant intellect of this preacher and teacher
of Present Truth, as demonstrated over decades. The
observations were made by those of us who were living close to him, and
by others of us who talked with him on the telephone.
Those who could observe him in person were also aware of physical
changes in the way he walked and maintained his balance.
We now feel it incumbent on us to
disclose from the diagnosis
of a physician that Elder Grotheer is in an advanced stage of
progressive decline in cognitive function due to damage or disease in
the brain beyond what might be expected from normal aging.
Although the diagnosis does not specify the underlying disease,
general knowledge and experience suggest that it is either Alzheimer’s
or Parkinson’s; and quite likely Parkinson’s, because of the associated
shuffling gait and frequent falls to which Elder Grotheer was subject
during 2007.
We ask you to join us in prayer that God
will ease the pain and suffering of this man who has worked so
diligently for the cause of Truth, in his present hour of affliction.
While there may yet be some areas of the biblical expositions covered by
Elder Grotheer's writings and sermons which can be explored in greater
depth, his is essentially a finished work, anchored in the Bible, and a
sound foundation for further study.
We hope that visitors to
adventistlaymen.com
will carefully study and/or
review the many articles
on the great issues of Present Truth that are on this
website, dating from the critical year of 1980 until the end of 2006. To
find them, just click on one of the WWN Index hyperlinks on this

And that, knowing
the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our
salvation nearer than when we believed. The night is far spent,
the day is at hand . . . Romans 13:11, 12a |

We must not think, "Well, we have all the
truth, we understand the main pillars of our faith, and we may rest on
this knowledge." The truth is an advancing truth, and we
must walk in the increasing light." (R&H,
March 25, 1890; emphasis supplied)
