What We Believe

Explore a Christ-centered faith that is grounded in Scripture, lived in community, and filled with hope.

A Living Faith

Belief shapes the way we worship, serve, and live.

Seventh-day Adventists accept the Bible as their creed and understand their fundamental beliefs to be an expression of the teaching of Scripture. These beliefs centre on God as revealed in Jesus Christ and guide our worship, mission, relationships, and hope.

Faith is more than receiving information. It means placing our trust in God, accepting salvation through Jesus, and growing in a living relationship with Him.

At the heart of Adventist belief

  • The Bible is the inspired and trustworthy guide for faith and life.
  • The gospel is God’s good news of salvation through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
  • Creation reveals purpose, human dignity, and the gift of the seventh-day Sabbath.
  • Jesus will return, raise those who trusted Him, and bring sin and suffering to an end.
