Who Are Seventh-day Adventist?

 The “Seventh-day” in our name identifies us as a people who honor the weekly memorial to God’s creative power (Ge 2:3; Ex 20:3-7; Mt 5:17-19).

Adventist “ is a name that belongs to those who look for the literal, visible ‘advent’ or return of Christ (Heb 9:28; Jn 14:1-3; Act 1:6-11; Rev 1:7).

The following is a summary sketch of our beliefs:

Salvation is by God’s grace alone
(Ro 3:24; 5:15;11:6;Ep 1:6-7; 2:5-8; 2 Ti 3:5-7)

Through faith in Jesus Christ alone (Jn 10:1-2; 14:6; Ro 1:17; 4:3-5; 16:5; Ga 3:11)

Our obedience is in loving response to God’s grace and the fruit of our faith (Jn 14:15; Ro 3:30-31; 6:1-23; Ja 2:26)

Baptism by immersion (Ma 3:13-17; Ac 8:38) is a public expression of our faith in Christ and our receiving of God’s grace (Acts 2:41; Rom 6:3-4; 1 Pet 3:21)

For the glory of God we believe in healthful living (Ro 12:1; 1 Cor 6:19-20; 10:31)

Eternal life is our present reality in Christ (Jn 5:24; 1 Jn 5:11-13)

And though death—a state of unconscious sleeping in Christ (Ec 9:5-6; 1 Co 15:51; 1 Th 4:13) overtakes us, there will be a resurrection when Christ returns (Jn 5:28-29; 1 Th 4:13-18) 

Adventism is a movement of destiny—God’s last warning invitation to a dying world—having been raised up in 1844 in fulfillment of prophetic time (Dan 8:14).

It serves as the prophetic voices
(Revelation 14:6-12) announcing “the hour of God’s judgment is come
