This Bible study set uses a creative, kid-friendly approach to the 28 fundamental beliefs, which will introduce children to the pillars of our faith. Since the Seventh-day Adventist Church has just completed the process of re-evaluating and re-wording its 28 Fundamental Beliefs finalizing in July, in San Antonio , as called for in the Preamble to the Fundamentals, I thought it would be interesting to toss these 28 to my faculty one at a time and see what kind of dynamic that would create.
We will consider them one by one and I will reflect on that conversation here. The goal will be to post one a week at the blog site www. Oddly, when I began preparing for this project a couple years ago, I had great difficulty even finding the Preamble online. Apparently, for some time the official web site of the SDA Church published the 28 without the Preamble, which is odd. Seventh-day Adventists Believe Through the years Seventh-day Adventists have been reluctant to formalize a creed in the usual sense of that word.
However, from time to time, for practical purposes, we have found it necessary to summarize our beliefs. In the Adventist press at Battle Creek, Michigan, published a "synopsis of our faith" in 25 propositions.
This document, slightly revised and expanded to 28 sections, appeared in the denominational Yearbook of This was not continued in subsequent issues, but it was inserted again in the Yearbook in and continued to appear through In response to an appeal from church leaders in Africa for "a statement [that] would help government officials and others to a better understanding of our work," a committee of four, including the president of the General Conference, prepared a statement encompassing "the principal features" of belief as they "may be summarized.
The 28 fundamental beliefs are the core beliefs of Seventh-day Adventist theology. Adventists are opposed to the formulation of creeds , so the 28 fundamental beliefs are considered descriptors , not prescriptors ; that is, that they describe the official position of the church but are not criteria for membership.
These beliefs were originally known as the 27 fundamental beliefs when adopted by the church's General Conference in An additional belief number 11 was added in They may be grouped into the doctrines of God, humanity, salvation, the church, Christian life, and the restoration. Yet, even from its founding the church has had to release answers to doctrinal questions or to challenge false statements about what its actual beliefs were.
As stated in the subtitle states, the 28 Fundamental Beliefs are based on and explained through numerous passages in the Bible. With this structure, the reader is given better understanding to Seventh-day Adventist theology. Seventh-day Adventists Believe services a dual purpose of helping Adventists--both longtime and new--learn about their beliefs better and to answer questions as well as misconceptions from non-Adventists.
Amongst the questions answered are the Trinity, sola scriptura, and the experience of salvation. If you have ever wondered what Seventh-day Adventists really believe then this book is highly recommended to answer your questions.
