They worship Babe the big blue ox, you know from Pail Bunyan fame. They also sacrifice squirrels in hopes of a bountiful harvest each year.....and they absolutely hate people named Todd. Don't know why, they just do.

The opinion of the Seventh Day Adventist church is they have the TRUTH. Therefore if you do not believe as they do you do not have the truth. Guess that means your religion is a lie. Actually most of them do believe your religion is a lie.
They also believe they have the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY. They use Revelation 19:10 (last part) to determine that those who have the truth have The Spirit of Prophecy so they have a group of books Titled Testimony’s to the Church (they also call you guessed it THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY)written by a devout woman Ellen Gould (White) who they claim was a prophet. James white used his wife’s probably catatonic episodes to claim she was in vision. She would then say pretty much what he told her under hypnotism.
Ellen had been seriously injured as a child by being hit in the face with a rock and was not ever able to return to school past third grade.
However she was a devout God Loving Christian. When she began to criticize the actions of the church leaders they exiled her to Australia with a secretary (keeper) who edited (censored) all her further communication. By the way the Spirit of prophecy series has been edited several times even once that I know of in the last 60 years and the book The Great Controversy has had a chapter removed because it was not considered politically correct. (chapter 16 I believe)

The Seventh Day Adventist hold 27 fundamental beliefs. They believe in the Resurrection, the 10 commandments, basically everything in the bible. They believe that you have to use more than one scripture when you search for answers in the bible. Yes, they also believe Saturday is very important, no not more than God, but important none the less. It is because Saturday is the seventh day of the week, and according to the 10 commandments, we are to rest on the seventh day, to be able to learn about and praise God.

Adventist believe some very strange things!!! One of the worst is.... they believe the first test for salvation is believing in Christ and the second test is: keeping the Seventh day (Saturday) Sabbath. If you reject the second test or you fail to keep it....you will go to hell regardless of whether you believe in Christ.
They do not believe in the rapture. They do believe in resurrection. At death they believe your body, soul and spirit lie dead in the grave until the time of Christ's return. They laugh hysterically at funerals when people of other faiths pray and talk about their loved ones being in heaven or with God.
The basis for all their doctrines comes from a woman named Ellen White. She would faint, remain in a rigid state, sometimes for hours before she would arise to say, "God has shown me........"
God showed her there was life on Pluto and that the door of salvation was shut in 1844 (meaning if you weren't saved at that point then you couldn't be)....after it became obvious that babies were being born and couldn't be saved because God had closed the door on salvation then she had another vision were "God showed her.....something else to cover up the mistake he made for telling her he had shut the door of salvation.. " This is the pattern for many of the believes....ever changing to cover up the errors without admitting they are wrong.
My point is...the woman was 'shown by God' many things that never took place and she is clearly a false prophet, however, the group of believers tenaciously hold on to her words as the "light" from God.
Beware of the adventist...........

When I was growing up, my best friend was from this church. She would stop everything on Friday at 6 pm. Have a prayer time with her family. From that moment on, they would not work until Saturday 6 pm. Everything was prepare before hand. They don't believe in Resurrection the same way other Christians do. They believe we will resurrect only when Jesus comes back. They don't eat pork. Somehow, Saturday is more important than Jesus. At least that is what I felt.

Sabbath for Seven Day Adventists is from Friday at sunset to Saturday at sunset. for the period of that factor the guy is to dedicate time to bible learn/worshipping. Having funds exchange palms, cooking, etc. are all forbidden.
