About Us

The Seventh-day Adventist Church is a mainstream Protestant church with approximately 19 million members worldwide, including more than one million members in North America. The Seventh-day Adventist Church seeks to enhance quality of life for people everywhere and to let people know that Jesus is coming again soon.

Adventists believe a Trinity of three persons—the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit—make up one God. They made salvation possible when Jesus, the Son, came to earth as a baby in Bethlehem and lived a sinless life in accordance with the Father’s will. When Jesus was crucified for the sins of the people of the world and arose from the dead on the third day, victory was won for everyone.

When He returned to heaven following the resurrection, Jesus left the Holy Spirit to serve as our Comforter and Counselor. He promised to return to earth a second time to complete His plan of salvation and take His people to heaven. Adventists are among the believers who look forward to that day.

Adventists believe that God is concerned with the quality of human life, and that everything—the way we live, eat, speak, think, treat each other, and care for the world around us—is part of His plan. Our families, our children, our jobs, our talents, our money, and our time are all important to Him.

Jesus’ Word is the Holy Scriptures. It was given by God to the prophets through an act of divine revelation and inspiration. The infallible revelation of Jesus’ loving will for humanity is recorded in the Old and New Testaments. 2 Timothy 3:16-17

Jesus’ Incarnation was God becoming fully human. Jesus the Son, the Father and the Holy Spirit are a Unity of three co-eternal persons. Jesus, born of a virgin, is both our Creator and our Redeemer. Hebrews 1:1-3, Genesis 1:1-2

Jesus’ Voluntary Death on the cross was a substitutionary sacrifice for our sins. When we accept by faith His perfectly obedient life and His substitutionary death, we are accounted as righteous before the Lord apart from any of our works. Jesus paid it all! Romans 5:8-10, Ephesians 2:4-10

Jesus’ Resurrection is evidence that HE has conquered the power of Satan and the power of death. It is the assurance given to His people of being resurrected at His coming and of living with Him throughout eternity. At the resurrection our mortal nature will receive from God immortality of eternal life. 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18, 1 Corinthians 15:20-28

Jesus’ Mediation in the heavenly sanctuary is an intercession on behalf of the human race. Enthroned at the right hand of the Father, His work as mediator now is also one of judgment, vindicating God’s righteousness and vindicating His name and His people before the universe.

Hebrews 8, Revelation 20

Jesus’ Character is a revelation of God’s loving nature. The perception of His character has been distorted by Satan, resulting in a controversy that has brought into existence sin and untold suffering. One purpose of the plan of salvation is to unmask the deceiver and restore true recognition of Christ’s immeasurable love and compassion. Heb. 1:1-3, Jn. 14:9-11, Is. 14;12-15, Rev. 12, Eph 3:16-21

Jesus’ Life is manifested today in His people through the agency of the Holy Spirit. He is Christ’s representative on earth. He is the agent of the new birth and the one who enables God’s people to live victoriously. He bestow on His church spiritual gifts including the gift of prophecy. Jn. 14:16-18, Jn. 3:3-8, 1 Cor. 12:1-11, Eph. 411-16

Jesus Obedience to the law of God revealed a perfect life free from sin. This righteous life, which He offers us by faith, also provides the example for His follower’s life. Jn. 15:9-11, Heb. 5:6-11, 1 Pet. 2:20-24,

Jesus’ Mission is performed today by His people as they proclaim the eternal gospel to the people of every nation. Matt. 24:14, Matt. 28:18-20, Rev. 14:6-7

Jesus’ Day occurs on the seventh day (Saturday) of each week. Jesus calls Himself Lord of this day. Instituted at Creation, the Sabbath is an appropriate memorial of God’s creative power, but also a day of delightful communion with Him and one another. It is a symbol of our redemption in Christ, a sign of our sanctification, a token of our allegiance, and a foretaste of our eternal rest in God’s kingdom. Matt. 12:8,  Mk. 2:27-28, Lk. 6:5, Gen. 2:1-3, Ex. 20:8-11, Deut. 5:12-15, Eze. 20:11-12

Jesus’ Church is composed of all who confess Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. Believers come together for worship, for fellowship, for instruction in the Word, for the Lord’s Supper and for the proclamation of the gospel. Entrance into the church is through baptism by immersion as a visible expression of the new birth.  In the last days God has selected from within the Christian community a remnant who keep the commandments of God and have the faith of Jesus. Rom. 6:1-8, Acts 2:40-42, 1 Cor. 12:12-13, Eph. 4:11-16, Rev. 12:17, Rev. 14:12

Jesus’ Return is assured. The prophetic proclamation of Scripture indicates that we are living in the last days and that His coming is rapidly approaching. This coming is personal, literal, physical and visible. 1 Thes. 4:15-18, Jn. 14:1-3, Rev. 22:7, 12-13, 20

Jesus Invitation is for you. He wants to be your Savior and the center of your life. Jn. 3:16, Matt. 11:28-30
