I know I started a thread here a long time ago of the same name and some of these were sorta answered ,buti want to reapet them so i can get the picture.
Okay, what is the OFFICAL beleife about the end times for the SDA church or is there no offical beleif about the end times for the end times it is just "this adventist is pretripulation but this one is midtripulation". Also is the beleif of the archangel michael being Jesus a offical beleif and if it is can i be a adventist if i disagree ,and im not sure of this yet but if i beleive that hell is enternal punishment can i be a adventist? I'll ask more later. I ask these questions because I want to be sure before i go join the SDA church I'm hopefully going this saturday if I can find out what time it starts.

Thank you for helping me!

According to church teachings the body of Christ will go through the tribulation. I don't know what kind of trib that is. This is all very ridiculous since all can't be correct.

I doubt a pastor would refuse to baptize you if you did not accept that Jesus is Michael, but there could be others would.

Why you would believe that hell is eternal punishment is beyond me, unless you love to think of God as a torturer and a magician. Think of the logistics of transporting the burning to a place where nobody else is allowed to visit. If you prefer to believe that you may think it dishonest to join in faith with people who do not.

I'm under Eastern Standard Time...our Sabbath School (and I think the majority of them do) starts at 9:30 a.m. Our worship service begins, after a brief break, at 11:00 a.m.

Be prepared to stay for Visitor's Lunch....people will lay down in front of your car if you try to leave, LOL. JUST kidding.

By all means attend. I went for a little over 2 months before I was baptized into the church. That gave me plenty of time (at least for me) to be certain that this was what I wanted to do.

I've never been happier.
