WHAT YOUR
rfctuenti&t \
*
BELIEVE
Seventh-day Adventists
may be a little different, all
right; but, everything con
sidered, they arc just ordi
nary folk*.
They do not exhibit long faces,
wear funny clothes, or bother
anybody. They may participate
in the community chorus or the
Red Cross drive or other civic
activities. Just like your other
neighbors.
But still, they are “different.”
They don’t smoke; but they won’t
preach at you if you do. They
don’t drink. They go to church
faithfully (but on Saturday in
stead of Sunday) and they try to
observe the Sabbath even when
they aren’t in church.
They operate 4,161 schools,
160 hospitals and clinics, 50
publishing houses and are
established in 228 countries.
What is it that makes your Ad
ventist neighbors the way they
are? Well, in the first place, they
put a great deal of
HoDe emphasis on hope
** for the future.
TOr the They believe the
n end of the world is
tuture near and feel an
urgent obligation
to prepare themselves and others
for it. They believe that a vital
part of their message is “the hour
of his judgment is come” (Revela
tion 14:7), and that this message
must go to all the world to pre
pare a people for the soon return
of Christ, the Saviour.
Your Seventh-day Adventist
friends are quite orthodox. They
believe the Bible from Genesis
to Revelation. They adhere to
observance of the Ten Com
mandments, having no part in
present-day attempts to abolish
them as a rule of right and the
standard of God’s judgment.
They also believe that the law
condemns man completely, be
cause its sole purpose is to point
out sin—and we all have sinned.
Our only hope of ever receiving
life eternal is in accepting the un
merited favor of Christ. W'e are
then under His grace. But the
law is still there and will con
demn us as often as we sin.
Adventists believe that the
seventh day of the week, now
called Saturday, was consecrat
ed by God, according to the
fourth commandment, at crea
tion (Exodus 20:11) and has
been observed by many faithful
ones ever since, and they ob
serve it today.
But they certainly do not be
lieve that, because of this, they
have an exclusive title to salva
tion. They believe
that many an hon
est soul with an im
perfect knowledge
of truth will be
« saved by the grace
of Jesus. But so
Not
a
Quibble
iar irom Deing an unimportant
quibble, they believe the matter of
Sabbath observance is fully as im
portant as any other command
ment. The Sabbath is called God’s
“sign.” No other day would do,
any more than another flag would
do for patriotic citizens!
They will show you that the
substitution of Sunday for the
Sabbath crept into the church
long after the de£th of Christ,
and was admittedly sanctioned
by the church of later centuries
and thus passed along to Prot
estantism today.
Seventh-day Adventists feel
that they have a divine mission
today in helping to “restore the
o 1 d paths”—pointing mankind
again to the requirements of God’s
law, and the grace of Jesus that
saves us from its penalty.
They feel the urgency of world
conditions permits no frivolous
conduct, but demands a sober, ra
tional outlook, brightened by the
hope of an eternity in a new and
perfect world.
This is No. 12 of a lories, tolling briefly of
the beliefs ond hopes of 750,000 of your
Seventh .day Adventist neighbors and friends.
