What We Believe

Jesus Christ, fully God and fully man, provides salvation and eternal life now. Galatians 2:20;
Hebrews 12:1-3
; Philippians 2:5-8; I John 5:11-13.

There is one God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Hebrews 1:1-3; II Corinthians 13:14; I Peter 1:2.

The Bible is the only rule of faith and practice. II Timothy 2:15; II Peter 1:19-21.

The Ten Commandment law declares God's will reveals sin and reminds all their need of a savior. Genesis 3:17-19; Romans 5:12-15; Galatians 3:22-24.

One who is justified by faith, God declares righteous on the ground of Jesus Christ's substitutionary life and death. Romans 4:3-5; Galatians 3:7-11.

The fruit of the Gospel includes the new birth and progressive sanctification until glorification at the day of Jesus Christ. John 3:1-7; Acts 2:37,38; Romans 6:1-6.

God writes His law upon the hearts and minds of believers in Jesus. Exodus 20:3-17; James 2:10-12; Hebrews 8:7-13.

Joined by faith to Jesus Christ, one becomes a member of His body, the Church. I Corinthians 12:13; Ephesians 2:13.

Participation in His body includes baptism, worship, the Lord's Supper and spiritual gifts.
Ephesians 4:8,11
; Matthew 28:18-20; I Corinthians 11:23-29; Hebrews 10:22-25.

The Christian life is a personal relationship with Christ by committing oneself, our time, talents, possessions including (tithe and offerings), health and influence. Malachi 3:8-12; Matthew 23:23;
I Corinthians 3:16,17; 6:19
, Deuteronomy 14:3-20.

Believers do not personally appear in judgment because Jesus the mediator presents them as righteous in Himself. I John 2:1, 2; Romans 8:1-4.

The righteous receive immortality at Christ's return, and the wicked eternal death at the Millenniums end as the new earth becomes the saint's possession forever. John 14:1-3; Malachi 4:1-3;
I Thessalonians 4:16, 17
; 1 Corinthians 15:51-58.

Seventh-day Adventists are called to announce Christ's return to the world by proclaiming the Gospel. Matthew 24:14; Acts 1:8; Revelations 10:8-11, 14:6-11.
