The name Seventh-day Adventist includes two vital beliefs for us as a Church: “Adventist” reflects our passionate conviction in the nearness of the soon return (‘advent’) of Jesus. “Seventh-day” refers to the Biblical Sabbath which from Creation on has always been on the seventh day of the week, or Saturday.
The mission of the Seventh-day Adventist Church is to proclaim to all peoples the everlasting gospel in the context of the three angels' messages of Revelation 14:6-12, leading them to accept Jesus as personal Savior and to unite with His church, and nurturing them in preparation for His soon return.
We pursue this mission under the guidance of the Holy Spirit through:
Preaching: Accepting Christ's commission
in Matthew 28:18-20,
we proclaim to all the world the message of a loving God, most fully revealed in His Son's
reconciling ministry and atoning death. Recognizing the Bible to be God's infallible
revelation of His will, we present its full message, including the second advent of
Christ and the continuing authority of His Ten Commandment law with its reminder of
the seventh-day Sabbath.
Teaching: Acknowledging that development of mind and character is essential to God's
redemptive plan, we promote the growth of a mature understanding of and relationship to
God, His Word, and the created universe.
Healing: Affirming the biblical emphasis on the well-being of the whole person, we
make the preservation of health and the healing of the sick a priority and through our
ministry to the poor and oppressed, cooperate with the Creator in His compassionate work
of restoration.
In harmony with the great prophecies of the Scriptures, we see as the climax of God's plan the restoration of all His creation to full harmony with His perfect will and righteousness.
The Seventh-Day Adventist Church logo incorporates several symbolic references into one quickly identifiable symbol.
The Open Bible:
The Bible forms the base of the design and represents the biblical foundation of our beliefs. It is portrayed in a fully open position, suggesting a full acceptance of God's Word.
The Flame:
This shape is formed by three lines encircling an implied sphere. The lines represent the three angels of Revelation 14 circling the globe and our commission to take the gospel to the entire world. The overall shape forms a flame symbolic of the Holy Spirit.
The Cross:
The symbol of the cross, representing the gospel of salvation, is positioned in the center of the design to emphasize Christ's sacrifice, which is the central theme of our faith.
