What We Believe

Seventh-day Adventists believe:

In one God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and that the Bible is God’s inspired Word for us today.
That by accepting Jesus Christ as one’s personal Savior, a new heart is given the believer, thus leading to a Christ-centered life.
In a recent, six-day creation that also instituted the Sabbath as a sign between God and His people.
The Ten Commandments further describe God’s highest ideals for humanity’s interaction with Him and with each other.
That we honor the marriage covenant, established by God in the Garden of Eden, to be a lifelong union between a man and a woman.
In the stewardship of our time, talents, and possessions through the returning of tithes and the giving of offerings.
That stewardship also includes caring for our bodies as the Temple of The Holy Spirit by abstaining from unclean foods and harmful substances such as drugs, alcohol, and tobacco.
In the observance of baptism by immersion and celebrate communion along with foot washing as a regular reminder of Christ’s humble sacrifice for us.
In a soon, literal return of Jesus Christ to this earth at which time He will claim all who call Him Savior and Lord.
That in the new earth to come, God will provide a home for all the redeemed and a perfect environment for everlasting life, love, joy, and learning in His presence.
The great controversy between Christ and Satan will be forever ended, and sin will be no more. All things will forever declare that God is love.
