Our belief

 modlenie_2.jpg

As official members of Seventh-day Adventist Church we believe in these points: BELIEFS

 

We believe that there is one absolute truth (however we do not say that we have all of it). Bible is warning us to be one minded. God´s Word is our authority. There must be one truth based on God´s princiles and laws and it never changes otherwise this world and universe could not exist. Human beings received beautiful gift from Creator – freedom of choice. We can accept the truth or to refuse it and bear the consequences.

 

God is the perfect being above all creation. He made universe, natural and spiritual laws.  We believe in Godhead – Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Father as a Creator of all, Son, Lord Jesus Christ as a Saviour and Redeemer and Holy Spirit - as our Guide, Comforter. God is infinite (Alpha and Omega) and He is righteous, loving, holy, wise, eternal, almighty, omnipresent.

God is the creator of all and in His Word He provided trustworthy record about His creation. In six day God created heaven and earth and all earthly creation and on the seventh day of that first week he rested. So He made Sabbath (Saturday) as a permanent memorial of completion of His creation work (more here: Our worshipping). First people, man and woman were created in God´s image as the highest work of creation, they were given power of the world to look after it. Man in his life is fully depended upon God because: "And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul" (Genesis 2: 7).

 

Holy Scripture – Bible is God´s Word that consists of Old and New Testament. It is inspired by Holy Spirit. It does not have any mistake or contradiction. Bible is the only supreme authority for all doctrines and church existence. Bible never changes and is valid also for our time. It is a mean of communication between God and man.

Man is sinful and needs change of his life and to be saved for eternal life after death. Eternal life is gift of God and you can receive it only by faith in Jesus Christ. "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast." (Ephesians 2:8-9).

 

Ježiš Kristus prišiel v ľudskom tele preto, aby zachránil človeka od hriechu a večného zatratenia. Každému kto Mu úprimne vyzná svoje hriechy, dá odpustenie, nový, zmenený život a večnosť s Ním. Toto sa nazýva znovuzrodenie, nový život, ktorý nám Boh udeľuje.

All people that have accepted Lord Jesus Christ as their Redeemer and personal Saviour should be baptized by immersion.  Baptism in water is expression of the fact that man has been converted.  Person who has been born again should be baptized. If children are being baptized by water it does not make any sense because they cannot themselves decide for Jesus.

„He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved..“ (Mark 16: 16).

  

Lord´s supper is expression of suffering and death of Jesus Christ and all people who are born again should take part in in, until the Lord comes back.  Let us approach it with respect and all humility. It is a commemorial of Lord´s suffering on the cross for our sins. We take unfermented (non-alcoholic) vine and unleavened bread as it was done by Christ in time of Pesach.

 „..This do in remembrance of me.“ (1.Corinth. 11: 24, 25).

 

After ascension of Jesus into heaven Holy Spirit was poured out on Pentecost (Acts of apostles 2:1-13) as promised by Lord Jesus (Acts of apostles 1:4-8).

 

 Holy Spirit (symbol is white dove) is the third Person of Godhead, coming from Father and Son. He convicts the sinner and helps him to be born again. He also assures, sanctifies and strengthens the sinner. Baptism by Holy Spirit is strengthening the believer for life and service for Christ.  Holy Spirit is promised to all who are born again.

 We believe in gifts of Holy Spirit working nowadays (1 Corinthians 12) and in Christ´s gifts of service (Ephesians 4:11-13) in order to spread the gospel and build the Church.

Church consists of all Christians that are born again and are saved.  It is also very important to have a place to meet where individual person worships God, is in community and carries out his mission.

 

jebel_lawz_law_of_god.jpgThe great principles of God’s law are embodied in the Ten Commandments and exemplified in the life of Christ. They express God’s love, will, and purposes concerning human conduct and relationships and are binding upon all people in every age. These precepts are the basis of God’s covenant with His people and the standard in God’s judgment. Through the agency of the Holy Spirit they point out sin and awaken a sense of need for a Saviour. Salvation is all of grace and not of works, but its fruitage is obedience to the Commandments. This obedience develops Christian character and results in a sense of well-being. It is an evidence of our love for the Lord and our concern for our fellow men. The obedience of faith demonstrates the power of Christ to transform lives, and therefore strengthens Christian witness.

 

The beneficent Creator, after the six days of Creation, rested on the seventh day and instituted the Sabbath for all people as a memorial of Creation. The fourth commandment of God’s unchangeable law requires the observance of this seventh day Sabbath as the day of rest, worship, and ministry in harmony with the teaching and practice of Jesus, the Lord of the Sabbath. The Sabbath is a day of delightful communion with God and one another. It is a symbol of our redemption in Christ, a sign of our sanctification, a token of our allegiance, and a foretaste of our eternal future in God’s kingdom. The Sabbath is God’s perpetual sign of His eternal covenant between Him and His people. Joyful observance of this holy time from evening to evening, sunset to sunset, is a celebration of God’s creative and redemptive acts.


We believe in existence of angels that are divided in two main categories – angels of light serving God and His purpose and angels of darkness that serve satan who rebelled and are not in presence of God.  Despite the wrong character of satan and his angels many times they are hidden behind good works, however their motive is selfish and bad. "And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light." (2.Corinth. 11: 14)

Satan´s subordinates as angles of darkness perform the main destruction work on earth. Their task is to bring suffering, sickness and tragedies to human beings. Their character is bad, not merciful and irreconcilable. They also blind and manipulate people many different ways so they do not turn to God. Their biggest weapon is doubt, deceit and blaming. God will destroy these powers of darkness at the end in the fiery lake because of their works. On the other hand God´s angels will strengthen their position and will fulfill God´s purpose fully. Bible forbids worship and praying to angels because they are also created as we are and they are not God.

 

We believe in prophetic gift of Ellen Gould White

All humanity is now involved in a great controversy between Christvelky.png and Satan regarding the character of God, His law, and His sovereignty over the universe. This conflict originated in heaven when a created being, endowed with freedom of choice, in self-exaltation became Satan, God’s adversary, and led into rebellion a portion of the angels. He introduced the spirit of rebellion into this world when he led Adam and Eve into sin. This human sin resulted in the distortion of the image of God in humanity, the disordering of the created world, and its eventual devastation at the time of the worldwide flood. Observed by the whole creation, this world became the arena of the universal conflict, out of which the God of love will ultimately be vindicated. To assist His people in this controversy, Christ sends the Holy Spirit and the loyal angels to guide, protect, and sustain them in the way of salvation.

 

hehl.jpgOur body is God´s temple and that is why it is important to take care of it. It is especially our food and lifestyle. We recommend exercise in nature, hygiene and healthy food principles. Man should not be using drugs or any other drug type things like coffee, alcohol, smoking cigarettes. In order to have a vital spiritual food we recommend vegetarian/vegan food. *DIET AND HEALTH*. If possible we purchase in local small shops and less in supermarkets and prefer homemade food without chemicals and harmful substances. God wants us to take care of our health.

  "What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?"

 (1.Corinth. 6:19-20). 

 

We are expecting the soon personal arrival of Lord Jesus Christ before thousand years of kingdom in heaven in order to gather His people. As we have such a blessed hope and real, honest waiting, we are also purifying ourselves as He is pure so we are ready when He comes.  We believe in physical resurrection of all mankind and eternal blessedness of those that truly believed in Lord Jesus Christ and in willful punishment of those whose names are not written in the Book of life. 

 

 We believe in Bible prophecies about Apocalypse that is about the end of the world as we know it today. Future events will be very dramatic and fast. False Christ will also come as he hopes for global governance over the world. His teachings will be hidden behind the words of unity, peace and love. Then during the next phase of suffering plagues will be poured out on earth that are listed in the book of Revelation. As closing the earth history there will be Armageddon, real battle between good and evil, where Son of God in glory of Father is victorious.  Due to breaking of God´s commandments evil because of sin will be forever destroyed and deleted from universe. By completion of this Bible truth there will be the creation of New Earth.
