Any other Seventh-day Adventist out there?

Question

I'm Seventh-day Adventist, and just want to know if there are any other on this group. :-)

Answer

We are Christians. We believe in the old testament teaching of Sabbath which means we go to church on Saturdays (hints the name "7th-day Adventist.") We believe most of what other protestant churches believe (Mary was a virgin who birthed Jesus, Jesus died for our sins, etc.)

Some main beliefs:

1. We look to the bible (not tradition and the bible like Catholics.) The bible is the sole authority when it comes to decisions regarding the church because it is inspired by God.

2. We believe that when people die they are in a state of sleep until Jesus comes again, and then they go to heaven.

3. People don't burn in hell for all eternity. God causes then to just not exist anymore when the devil is defeated.

4. Also, the church teaches of Ellen G. White as a prophetess. (I personally don't give much thought to it, but I lean more towards thinking she is not a prophetess, and that's fine!)

5. We don't eat pork or unclean meat. Also, a good amount of adventist are vegetarian, or vegan. At my church, the potlucks after church are always vegetarian because the majority of members don't eat meat. You can eat meat though (my husband and I both eat meat,.and most of our friends that are adventist do too.)

I think that covers some main believes, and practices. :-)

Answer

Fellow adventist here! I also lean towards thinking EGW was not a prophetess. But I am a Bible believing Sabbath keeper, which is how I came upon the SDA church about 4-5years ago. God has shown me so much through my local congregation as well as people like Doug Bachelor, Chris Hudson and Walter Vieth. My husband and I, after about 2 years feeling convicted, have decided to try the vegetarian diet promoted within the church. So it is funny I saw this posting tonight :) God is good. God bless family!
