Is 7-th day adventist religion the same as Jehova Witness?

Answer 1

No.

Jehovah's Witnesses understand the Scriptures to teach that God's Kingdom will soon replace all earthly governments.
(Daniel 2:44) God of heaven will set up a kingdom... It will crush and put an end to all these kingdoms, and it itself will stand to times indefinite

That Kingdom will rule over the vast majority of mankind, most of whom will have been raised from the dead after Armageddon.
(John 11:23,24) Jesus said to her: “Your brother will rise.” Martha said to him: “I know he will rise in the resurrection on the last day.”
(Acts 24:15) There is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous.

Until that resurrection, there is no suffering in "hell", or the grave. Sometime after the resurrection, death and "hell" will themselves be destroyed.
(Ecclesiastes 9:5) For the living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all
(Ecclesiastes 9:10) there is no work nor devising nor knowledge nor wisdom in Sheol ["hell"]
(Revelation 20:14) And death and Hades ["hell"] were hurled into the lake of fire

While a limitted number of humans will be resurrected to heaven to share in ruling over mankind, the vast majority (literally more than 99.9%) of Jehovah's Witnesses expect an EARTHLY hope, the same hope given to Adam and Eve.
(Genesis 1:28) God blessed them and God said to them: “Be fruitful and become many and fill THE EARTH and subdue it [caps added]
(Genesis 2:17) You must not eat from it, for in the day you eat from it you will positively die [so never eating from that tree means never dying]

Interestingly, the Scriptures are full of references to this earthly hope.
(Psalms 37:11) 'the meek will possess the earth'
(Proverbs 2:21) 'upright will reside in the earth'
(Isaiah 45:18) 'God formed the earth to be inhabited'
(Matthew 5:5) 'the mild will inherit the earth'
(Revelation 21:3) The tent of God is with mankind

Answer 2

No. I believe 7th day adventists believe that God's name is Elohim (Which is actually, just the plural majesty of "God" of 'el from Hebrew. It's a title, not a name). I could be wrong on that one, but I'm pretty sure I had a 7th day adventist himself explain it to me that way one time.

Jehovah's Witnesses ARE Christians, and hold that his Name, (The NAME of the Father, which appeared nearly 7,000 times in the ancient papyri and texts) when transliterated from the Tetragrammaton, *can* be pronounced "Jehovah". Which is a proper name, not a title, and they attempt to model the first century congregation as much as possible:

There are many, many, many other differences. But in the beginning of their modern day history, the two did share a close relationship. Wasn't Barbour, Charles Taze Russels associate a 7th day adventist? The split occuring, because Barbour, the 7th day adventist denied the power of the ransom sacrifice to take away sins?? I'd have to research that again

Answer 3

The Seventh-day Adventist Church and the Jehovah's Witnesses are not the same thing. Both of these Christian denominations, however, can trace their roots to the increase of eschatological interest in the 1800's. Both claim to use the Bible as their primary source of inspiration but vary vastly in doctrine and religious practice.

Some notable differences:
- Not unlike the early Arians, JW's do not worship Jesus as God. Adventists believe in the divinity of Christ as expressed in the pages of the Bible and stress the soon coming of Jesus. JW's believe that Jesus already came in 1914 and is establishing His kingdom.
- Many JWs do not practice blood transfusion. Adventists believe that the biblical texts prohibiting the consumtion of blood (Leviticus 17 and Acts 15) point toward the health benefits of abstaining from oral ingestion.
- JW's avoid the use of the cross in their services and the celebration of Christmas - noting their pagan origins. Adventists worship on Saturday, the Sabbath of the Old and New Testament and apparently uninterrupted from Creation, and not Sunday - noting the pagan origins of Sunday worship.

A little history:
The JWs and Adventists were both founded by people who where members of other Christian churches, many of whom were direct decendants of Christians who fled Europe in order to avoid religious persecution. The Dark Ages of Europe was a time where institutionalized religion hid the study of the Bible for centuries from the average believer. In contrast, the growing religious tolerance of the United States provided a fertile ground for Protestants to continue their study of the Bible without fear of condemnation. This country also served as a platform for both JWs and Adventists to evangelize the world.

A personal note:
Some people will disqualify the Jehovah's Witnesses or the Seventh-day Adventist Church as a "sect", "non-Christian", or even a "cult" because some of their doctrines differ from that of mainstream religion. These words are derogatory and are the lazy man's way of not confronting the issues presented by these religious groups. How many people these days would call the Roman Catholic Church a "cult" because they promote the worship of Mary and prayer to the "saints" to aid in salvation? Not many because its just not popular. Both JWs and Adventists believe in salvation through Jesus Christ alone.

Answer 4

No, they're extremely extremely diverse. seventh Day Adventists are a lot closer to mainstream Protestants, different than the certainty that they have got church on Saturday because of the fact they suspect the unique sabbath might desire to be referred to. yet they're trinitarians, they might have fun holidays and take part in politics, and are not fairly wide-spread for proselytizing. Jehovah's Witnesses go door to door attempting to transform people, and don't have fun holidays or take part in politics or different issues that are too "worldly". and that they don't have self assurance interior the trinity. they don't word the Saturday sabbath like Adventists, and purely have their conferences on Sunday. there is rather a lot purely one element that the two have in basic, and that's the doctrine of conditional immortality (which means people don't have souls that are conscious in between dying and their resurrection, and people who're not stored would be annihilated interior the tip, somewhat than go through eternal torment in hell).

Answer 5

They are both Apocalyptic sects of Christianity, they both had their beginnings in the late 1800's, they both were founded on prophesies that failed and had to be re-aligned with future dates. The biggest difference between them is that Jehovah's Witnesses believe that they are the only true church of Christ - re-established on earth after a millineum of false teaching from standard Christian churches -, that only 144,000 people will be taken into heaven, that allowing blood transfusions is condemned in the Bible, and that they owe no allegiance to any nation but only to Jehovah. Seventh Day Adventists worship on Saturday, require that members not drink, smoke, eat shellfish or pork and other unclean foods as described in Leviticus.

Answer 6

I heard they are an offshoot of the Witnesses. But
where Witnesses think they know everything better,
and teach the Sabbath was changed to Sunday, the
Day of the Sun, by the Romans. And still worship on
Sunday. The Adventists worship on Saturday.

Answer 7

Are they still around? When I was young there used to be 7th Day Churches every where, but have not seen one in decades.

Answer 8

we as Jehovah Witnesses worship Jehovah God and his son Jesus Christ. we are the only ones that do what Jesus commanded us to do at Matthew 28 verse 19 and 20. sorry marianne we are christians. the 7th day adventist are not a offshoot of Jehovah Witnesses. they have nothing to do with us

Answer 9

New Testment.,But can"t find the one about the Sabbath

Will have to do more research,

Answer 10

Nope.
