Let's Get Acquainted... Your Friends, the Seventh-Day Adventists.

Let's Get Acquainted!

The main reason I started this blog was to help people get to know and understand the truth about who Seventh-Day Adventists are. I hope that you will follow me and learn the truth. The truth of who we are and God's Truth. So, lets get started;

     Have you ever heard of Christians who call themselves Seventh-Day Adventists and wondered who they really are?
     Maybe you know a Seventh-Day Adventist. A next door neighbor. An acquaintance at work. Perhaps your doctor, electrician, or auto salesman is an Adventist. Or perhaps you even have an Adventist somewhere in your family.
     Then  again, maybe you've never personally known any Adventists, but you've wondered perhaps, why they go to church on Saturday---a different day than most Christians do. Why do they feel that what they eat and wear is so important? Why do they avoid certain forms of entertainment?
     If you've ever wondered who Seventh-Day Adventists are and what they believe, we'd like to introduce ourselves, We would like you to know us better. And we would also like to get to know you better. So in the next few pages, LET'S GET ACQUAINTED! Written by: Ken McFarland.
     Let's begin by asking the obvious question---

Who Are Seventh-day Adventists, Anyway?


     Part of the answer is in our name:

     "Seventh-day" refers to our belief in the seventh-day Sabbath  (the fourth of the Bible's Ten Commandments). More about this a little later.

     Who are Seventh-day Adventists? We are---

• A rapidly growing worldwide fellowship of approximately eleven million.
• Christians who love Jesus Christ and strive to make Him the center of all we believe and do.
• A church that is eager to share the truth about what God is really like---as seen in the life, character, and death of Jesus Christ.
• Evangelical Protestants who accept the Bible as our authority for what to believe and how to live.
• A Christian fellowship committed to sharing with others certain Bible truths that over the centuries have been largely lost sight of---or that have become mixed with errors.
• A community of Christians deeply interested in health---health of mind, body and spirit.
• Not a private club for saints. If anything, we're a hospital for sinners. But we rejoice in Christ's pardon for sin and in His power to deliver us from it.

     Before we go any farther, maybe we should mention a couple of things that you may have heard we believe, but which we definitely do not!

• We do not believe that only Seventh-day Adventists will be saved---or that we are the only church around that teaches Bible truth.
• We don't believe in salvation by works (being good). We do not believe that we are saved by Sabbath keeping, clean living, or keeping the ten Commandments---but by trusting entirely in Jesus Christ.          

     

This book was not written by me and I am in no way claiming copy-writes. I am sharing the information with the public so that they understand who Seventh-day Adventists truly are and what they believe. Using truth to dispel the lies.
