Who are the Seventh-day Adventists?
We believe in the Bible as the only source of truth in today's chaotic world. Within its pages, we delve into the epic narrative of the profound struggle between Christ and Satan. Through its teachings, we comprehend that a more sublime destiny awaits us—an eternal existence. The Bible reveals God's grand design to rescue humanity from the clutches of selfishness and sin, offering salvation, joy, and freedom. The remarkable news is that we can start experiencing a superior life even now. We eagerly anticipate a future free of sorrow, illness, and despair. Every seventh day (we call this day “Sabbath”), we joyously commemorate this story of hope, acknowledging that God created humanity and the entirety of creation in six literal days. The Sabbath serves as a cherished occasion, providing an opportunity to bond with loved ones and the God who created us. This weekly observance kindles our optimism, for it reminds us that Jesus will fulfill His promise. One day soon, his advent [arrival] will come so that everyone who believes in Jesus can be in heaven with Him forever.
We find our roots in studying the prophecies of the Bible. One of the saddest realities is that the Bible itself predicted that the majority of the Christian church would fall away from truth and would begin to look to the traditions of men rather than the truths of scripture. As we look back to the prophets of scripture, we recognize that it is never easy to go against the majority. We look to courageous individuals like Martin Luther, John Wesley, John Huss and many others who were willing to stand for truth though it cost them everything. We believe the Protestant Reformation that they began continues to this day. In the face of a world of compromise, we desire to stay true to the amazing teachings of scripture. We believe the Seventh-day Adventist movement was raised up to continue to carry the torch of Protestantism all the way until the Second Advent of Christ. Why does Jesus need to return? As we look around us in the world today, it seems as though, without intervention, mankind is without hope of survival.
