The proper view of works is that works do not save, but works evidence salvation.
What is the SDA view in a nutshell?

They especially mean the 4th Commandment. Attending church on Sunday will be the Mark of the Beast. Ultimately, your salvation is dependent upon the day that you go to church. Oh, and if you are going to pass the Investigative Judgement, you'd best have perfected your character.The proper view of works is that works do not save, but works evidence salvation.

Sounds pretty rank.According to SDA’s teachings under the instruction of SDA’s prophet Ellen White....
1. The work of the Investigative Judgement is to determine which ones of the above believers "are shown to be ENTITLED to its (the atonement of the Cross) BENEFITS.". "Names are accepted, names rejected". (GC p 489, 1939ed)
2. The Investigative Judgement bases judgement of the individual upon "those things which were written in the books, according to their works". (GC p 552, 1939ed)
3. In the Investigative Judgement, each individual "must be tested and found without spot or wrinkle or any such thing" (GC p 556, 1939ed) in order to qualify for the benefit of the Atonement of the Cross of Jesus Christ.
And those with spots are annihilated; short term suffering?According to SDA’s teachings under the instruction of SDA’s prophet Ellen White....

I think that the IJ and its emphasis on works is one of the reasons Adventism supports annihilationism. It would be a bummer if you busted your hump all those years, trying to perfect your character and laboring to make sure your righteousness is up to snuff. only to find you didn't pass the IJ's muster and now you must suffer eternal punishment. Better if, after all that work, you caught some slack and just had to burn a while.And those with spots are annihilated; short term suffering?

A little from column A, a little from column B.What is the SDA view in a nutshell?
No worse than killing for not preforming Sunday works. TBD !!!Sounds pretty rank.

To those who believe, all things are pure but to those who are corrupted and do not believe, nothing is pure. In fact, both their minds and consciences are corrupted.Your failure to follow the random comments is understandable.

SDA's seem to teach that we are saved through faith + obeying the 10 commandments (with a heavy emphasis on the 4th commandment). They also teach that the near the end of time the "mark of the best" of Revelation 14 will be placed upon those who worship on Sunday instead of Saturday.They especially mean the 4th Commandment. Attending church on Sunday will be the Mark of the Beast. Ultimately, your salvation is dependent upon the day that you go to church.

I've also noticed some of the SDA deny the divinity of Christ.SDA's seem to teach that we are saved through faith + obeying the 10 commandments (with a heavy emphasis on the 4th commandment).

They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved....SDA's seem to teach that we are saved through faith + obeying the 10 commandments (with a heavy emphasis on the 4th commandment).

The SDA gospel culminates in "salvation by grace plus law, faith plus works." (Galatians 1:6-9)At the end of time, a conflict will arise between those who worship the beast and his image and those who are the true followers of God. What sets these two groups apart is that one group, the true loyal remnant, keeps Saturday as a holy day, and the other group, the fallen and apostate, keeps Sunday as a holy day:![]()
"One class will advocate a gospel of human devisings and will worship the beast and his image... The other class, in marked contrast, will live by the true gospel and 'keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus' (Rev. 14:9,12)... those who reject God's memorial of creatorship--the Bible Sabbath--choosing to worship and honor Sunday...will receive the mark of the beast."2
Seventh-day Adventists claim to believe in the Trinity, however, you will find that the Adventist "trinity" is not the Trinity that Christians believe in. In Adventism, the Godhead is composed of three different beings united in purpose, not one Being that exists as three separate Persons. Adventism is tritheistic, not trinitarian.I've also noticed some of the SDA deny the divinity of Christ.
