7th Day a cult?
7th day cult beliefs are far from Christianity.
A Christian reading this to find out what SDA believe would 😱 in horror. But now you know what they believe and see how far from truth & Scripture the cult really is.
If you are in the 7th day religion...Please investigate the attached information linked here. We share because we care. And you should investigate to find the truth, & not blindly follow SDA.
Some 7th Day Teachings:
They do not believe in the trinity.
They believe Jesus is Michael the Archangel, not the eternal always existed God
They say when a person dies he does not exist anymore, claiming their is no soul so theres no immortality.
They teach humans have a body but not a spirit.
They do not believe Jesus had a spirit so when he died he ceased to exist.
They believe Jesus atonement on the cross wasnt enough ....and so Satan is a scapegoat for whom sins will be placed on. And they believe Jesus is doing some 2nd atonement in heaven (cuz the cross wasnt enough).
They believe in works plus grace= salvation
They teach Hell is not eternal, but annihilation.
They teach it is possible to lose salvation
They emphasize dietary laws and practice legalism
Ellen was a prophet whom they elevate authority to equal to Scripture (<the foundation of their faith)
They teach baptism is a requirement to be saved
They have false teaching about sabbath day, as well.
🤷♀️If we cease to exist after we die, salvation isnt necessary. Theres no afterlife. No need to be concerned about sin, Jesus, Satan or Hell. Therefore 7th day adventists have 0 need for God, Jesus or religion.
If they have the wrong God, wrong Jesus, theyll have a false god, & false Gospel. It in the end only leads to a wrath filled tormenting punishment in Hell. Theyve been decieved by Satan.
Pray that the people in this religion will come out of it. That they'll hear the truth, read the true Bible, meet the real God and Jesus, & be saved.

Scriptures warning of false teachers
Heres the real Gospel *
Learn about the real Jesus
Scriptures speaks on whether Jesus is God
The truth about God & what he tells us in Scripture
Read the Real Bible, to know what God said. Here & here are a reputible version.
Study on the true ancient texts and translations here. On reliability of the Bible, go here
On the annihilation issue about Hell
The sufficiency of Jesus work on the cross, was made very clear by Jesus & in Scripture. So by following SDA view you are calling God a liar.... Or are you the liar, or you were decieved by the lies of SDA?
John & Hebrews:
John 19:30 Therefore Jesus said, “It is finished!” (*The debt was paid in full).
Hebrews 10:10 "By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.12 But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God 14 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified."

Christians do not need to keep any of the Laws of the 10 Commandments or other commandments as a requirement for salvation. (As noted in false teaching waening note above). 👉 Jesus lived the perfect life on earth in our place, [as only the perfect God could, & as the God Man].... In order to be acceptable as the perfect sacrifice to God. Jesus did everything from his earthly life, to his death and to his resurrection... in order to bring salvation to us. That entire package was the mission, and He accomplished it perfectly. Therefore Jesus having done this in your place and mine, has fullfilled the Law for us, so we no longer need to try to keep the law. We have His righteousness covering us, and God sees us as perfect.
"The Law was a schoolmaster to lead us to Christ" ; it shows we are imperfect and unable to get to God. GOD therefore came to us "to re-connect us" to Him through Jesus.
After we are saved God does good works through us, "that were determined before the foundation of the world", and we become more holy day by day "to become conformed to the image of Christ". Those things happen after we are saved, during sanctification, as we live out our faith, as we follow Jesus. Then we are perfected, made sinless (no longer sin) when we enter eternity. And eternity will be free from the stain of sin, and no sin will enter the new Heaven and New earth. All of which Scripture tells us.
For Obeying Jesus commands... by the new nature we naturally do; living in obedience, living out our faith, following Jesus. This means now we are able to naturally obey what Jesus said in the NT. Note also, Jesus never discusses the 7th day Sabbath. (See links). Jesus said all the law is summed up into 2: 1. Love God & 2. Love others. We obey because we love God and because the Holy Spirit in us enables us to & guides us to live a holy life. New nature & Sanctification is about growing in holiness.... NOT legalistic obedience to the 10 Commandments. The Christian life is about having freedom in Christ.
*Dont just believe whatever your religion teaches. Grab a reputible Bible translation and read it properly. The truth is at stake here. No one wants to find out they were decieved and duped into a lie. But its better to find out now then when its too late after you die.
Get on the true path while you can.
Matt.7:21-23 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not done this and that in your name? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity [you are unsaved, still in your sins].
Scripture tells us "Even Satan and the demons believe" in Jesus. The difference is they arent following Jesus, and are not holding to the truths of Scripture. So renounce all falsehoods, leave SDA. Repent, learn who the real God and real Jesus are, and go serve and worship Him.
Be blessed 🙂

Notes:
Satan a scapegoat for mans sins- (The Great Controversy, p. 422, 485)—this is the opposite of what the Bible says about who bore our sins (1 Peter 2:24).
Jesus as Michael the archangel (Jude 1:9, Clear Word Bible, published by Review and Herald Publishing Association, 1994)—a doctrine that denies the true nature of Christ
Sabbath-keeping as a primary doctrine of theirs goes against the teaching of Scripture on the matter (see Romans 14:5 and above link).
The issue with the SDA Bible is The Clear Word "Bible" is a paraphrase, not a translation. The CWB violates the biblical text by severely altering it in many places as it restates Scripture in line with SDA bias, similar to the JWs altered "Bible".
Soul sleep and annihilationism contradicts Matthew 25:46, see link also.
SDA's elevate Ellen White's writings as equal to the Bible. They make her words equal to God. Thats insanity. They say Ellen's words take precedent over the Bible (*see below video exposing it). The people in SDA havent read about Eve in Eden nir the Bible teaching and the NT on women; as a woman she is not to speak or have authority in church, and yet the religion disregards anything in Scripture to teach their religion's views. It is deceptive and run by Satan to decieve and drag duped people to Hell. There is NO new revelation since the Apostles. God said everything and revealed everything we need to know from now till Eternity begins.... in the Bible, and anything else "new" someone claims since then is a lie from Satan.
Baptism is not required for salvation. But simply a public visual declaration that you align with Christ. Tgat you died in Christ, were washed clean bybthe Spirit at conversion, and raised to spiritual life by the resurrection of Christ. It is purely a visual public symbol of what ALREADY happened to you. SDA make it a Works requirement to be saved.
7th day adventists support group for those who leave and need help letting go. Otherwise just find a Biblical protestant church and read the Bible and live and believe the teachings it contains.
Final note.
Entire religions like catholicism, or cults (and along w SDA there are many others besides mormonism, charismaticism and jehovah witnesses).... these places are filled with unsaved people. But Christian churches also have some there who are unsaved. The children & teens of Christian parents, people who grew up in church but were never born again, those who thought they knew who God and Jesus were (but had their own belief, holding to the wrong God and wrong Jesus), and people wondering about God so they came seeking to learn. But the difference between true biblical Christianity and those other false groups is, in Christian churches the truth of Scripture is preached from the pulpit, the true saving Gospel is preached, and redeemed Christians are reading the Bible and becoming more like Jesus. The stark difference is between "a false religion and true Christianity", which leads to realizing it is a serious difference, and the difference is "between eternal Heaven and eternal Hell".
I pray you turn to the real God and the real Jesus. Cling to and believe in Him who completed the work on the cross for your salvation, and who has the power to keep you saved & sealed to Himself for eternity. And rest in assurance and gratitude for who God is, and what He did on the cross.
I hope this information has blessed you. It was provided to help you deep dive into Christianity, into Scripture, and know and understand what you did not conprehend before. I hope that you've indeed looked at every piece of information and links provided, and that from it ... today, you go to God in private, in humbleness, and ask Him to change in you what has been incorrect, change your beliefs to what is truth. Throw away all incorrect thoughts and views, and embrace truty. And.... go follow Jesus.
