The Seventh-day Adventist Church is a Christian denomination that upholds the Bible as their only creed and holds certain fundamental beliefs to be the teaching of the Holy Scriptures. They interpret the Bible for daily application and believe in the Trinity of three persons - the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit - who make up one God. They believe that God is concerned with the quality of human life and that everything - the way we live, eat, speak, think, treat each other, and care for the world around us - is part of His plan.

The Seventh-day Adventist Church has a set of 28 Fundamental Beliefs that describe how they interpret Scripture for daily application. These beliefs include the following:

• The Great Controversy: All humanity is now involved in a great controversy between Christ and Satan regarding the character of God, His law, and His sovereignty over the universe.
• The Church: The church is the community of believers who confess Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
• The Sabbath: The seventh day of the week, Saturday, is the Sabbath of the Lord.
• The Second Coming of Christ: Jesus Christ will return to earth to complete His plan of salvation and take His people to heaven.
• The State of the Dead: Death is an unconscious state for all people.
• The Investigative Judgment: An investigative judgment commenced in 1844.
• The Sanctuary: Jesus Christ is ministering in the heavenly sanctuary, making atonement for our sins.

Seventh-day Adventists uphold the central doctrines of Protestant Christianity, including the Trinity, the incarnation, the virgin birth, the substitutionary atonement, justification by faith, creation, the second coming, the resurrection of the dead, and last judgment. They also have some unique teachings, such as the belief in the unconscious state of the dead and the doctrine of an investigative judgment. The Seventh-day Adventist Church has become a significant global body, with congregations in more than 200 countries and a membership of more than 14 million.
