Summary/Abstract: The article deals with the question of how the contemporary postmodernist world view relates to the “mainstream” of Adventist theology – i.e. a movement which directly follows the modernist world view of the founders of the Seventh-Day Adventist Church. It critically analyses the deconstruction of evangelical theology in the works of the Adventist philosopher Fernando Canale. This deconstruction aims at redefining the macro-hermeneutic approach of Adventist theology on the basis of God’s temporality. Finally, the article demonstrates the impact of this understanding on Adventist orthopraxy.
