Is our doctrinal emphasis more biblical or cultural?

Coming near the end of this season exploring death and the afterlife, we explore how beliefs on this topic fit into the bigger picture of living a Christian life. The Adventist church has a fairly strong focus on the "state of the dead", and what if someone agrees with the doctrine but not the emphasis? With a fascinating touch on the issue of gambling, we ponder whether there might be too many things that are right for all of us to focus on all of them.
