Yes. The idea of being born again is a biblical concept discussed by Jesus in His conversation with Nicodemus found in John 3. However, Adventists do not believe that when a person is born again that they suddenly stop sinning, nor do they believe that someone who is born again can never be lost.
What else can I help you with?
How can Pentecostalism share the gospel to Seventh-day Adventists?
As Seventh-day Adventists tend to be knowledgeable about the Bible and believe they have the Gospel (not to mention traditionally being missionary-minded), the idea of someone else needing to share the Gospel with them might be met with surprise. Seventh-day Adventists believe in the death of Jesus Christ as the sacrifice for sin, by which all may be saved, through faith, not to mention the imminent physical return of Jesus, so which gospel would they be receiving that they don't already believe? In fact, several important doctrines are shared between the Pentecostals and Adventists.
Why don't Seventh-day Adventists believe in ghosts?
There are two aspects to the answer to this question: evil spirits and the state of the dead. First, Adventists do believe that evil spirits (fallen angels) can appear to people in the form of dead relatives, etc. to scare or confuse them. Adventists believe that evil spirits will do anything they can to impede humanity's salvation, including appearing to them disguised in order to confuse. Adventists also believe that evil spirits have the power to appear in many forms and are not to be taken lightly. Second, Adventists believe in the concept of soul sleep, which teaches that people who die do not go directly to heaven or hell (or stay on earth as a wandering spirit), but instead cease to exist until the Second Coming of Jesus (when God will resurrect them, basically recreating them). Because any individual who dies is not conscious of the passing of time, the next thing he or she will see is the Second Coming, and that means it is rather similar to being asleep. This is why Adventists do not believe that someone who has died becomes a ghost.
Do you have to believe in Ellen White in order to be an Adventist?
Excellent question!Ellen White herself was against belief in her gift being a requirement for membership, so no, you do not have to believe in Ellen White to be a Seventh-day Adventist.On the other hand, most Adventists do believe in Ellen White. And whether you believe she was a prophet or not, her writings are good, uplifting reading, particularly her best known works: The Desire of Ages, Steps to Christ, and The Great Controversy.
Do Seventh-day Adventists believe in actual devils?
Yes, though the definition of "devil" is not a red-skinned being with horns, a tail, and a pitchfork in its hand. For Adventists, Satan is the only person conventionally referred to as "the Devil." But his minions may also take the term, even though "demon" is a more common word for them among Adventists. These beings (Satan included) are merely fallen angels. They have the capability of appearing in many forms, including as angels of light or in the appearance of dead friends and relatives, by which they can confuse people regarding the state of the dead (Adventists believe in what is called "soul sleep", which is the idea that people who die do not go directly to heaven or hell, nor do they hang out on earth as ghosts or transform into angels, but instead "sleep" or cease to exist until the Second Coming when Jesus will raise the saved back to life or until the end of the millennium when the lost will be raised to judgment.)
What word means being born again after death?
Resurrection I'll add an additional answer: I'm guessing you mean one of the two: Resurrected, which doesn't actually mean "born again" it means brought back to life. Reincarnated, which does mean "born again," typically as a different being. Some people believe you can be reincarnated as different person, but some people believe you can be reincarnated as any being. You may die as a human, but be reincarnated as a cow, for instance.
What is the difference between Mormons and Seventh-day Adventists?
As you likely have noted, members of these two faiths hold strong to many of the same values. They both believe in prophecy, healthy living and the respect of the body as a temple, baptism by immersion, tithing, following the Commandments, community service, and many others. However these churches are different in several important ways. Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons or Latter-day Saints for short) believe in the Book of Mormon as another testament of Jesus Christ. They also have great love for and belief in the Holy Bible and believe both books to be the word of God. Both faiths believe the Holy Bible to be a closed book (one that should not be added to or taken from). Adventists believe in the Holy Bible as their sole book of scripture but also believe the writings of Ellen White as prophecy. Latter-day Saints recognize that there are literally hundreds of translations of the Bible (some of which contradict each other) and therefore believe in the Holy Bible to be perfect in as much as it was translated correctly. Nonetheless Latter-day Saints and Adventists both try to follow closely the example of Christianity set forth in this wonderful Holy book. Mormons believe Joseph Smith was a prophet and Adventists believe Ellen G. White was a prophet. Mormons additionally believe in modern-day revelation through prophets who have been chosen by God since Joseph Smith was killed. The prophet leads the Church at the direction of Jesus Christ and stands as as special witness and representative of Christ to all on the Earth. Christ said that He came not to abolish the Law (commandments) or the prophets but to fulfill them. Both faiths recognize the Sabbath as a day that should be focused on the Savior as emphasized in the ten commandments and made clear in the Sermon on the Mount by Christ Himself. Each believe that it should be a day of rest from your usual labors and a day with an extra (since every day should so be) emphasis on worship. Latter-day Saints recognize Sunday as the Sabbath secondary to a latter-day revelation that stated the sabbath should be transferred to the "Day of the Lord" in observance of the atonement of the Savior. Adventists recognize Saturday (sundown on Friday to sundown on Saturday) as the Sabbath. Members of both faiths recognize a strict health code. Many Adventists are vegetarians and all abstain from cigarettes and alcohol. Latter-day Saints believe in abstaining from alcohol, tobacco, coffee and tea, other harmful or addictive substances, in addition to promote eating healthy grains, vegetables, fruits, and limited amounts of meat. Certainly each of these faiths is distinct, but they do share many similarities -- including their strong commitment to the Savior. If you are wondering which to join, many can share their opinions and beliefs. However, the decision is between you and God. I'd encourage you to spend time talking with him to see what He would have you do. Read about each church from reliable sources: www.adventist.org and www.mormon.org or www.lds.org. All have a lot of useful information. Don't seek out information about Adventists from Mormons or about Latter-day Saints from Adventists (you wouldn't likely ask an English professor about a mathematical problem, or a physician about how to build a gas pipeline). Its tough to not be biased based on firm belief but God will not steer you wrong.
What are the differences between Seventh Day Adventists and Christian Jews?
In certain ways, they are similar. However, there are lots of key differences, like the belief in Jesus Christ! But, the similarities lie in the fact that they both observe the original Sabbath of God, and that they both use Kosher laws to choose what is clean and unclean to eat. The other similarities are the same that lie between any Christian denomination and Judaism
Does the Orthodox Church believe in being born again?

This differs in interpretation from some Protestant denominations which emphasize a more personal and emotional experience of being "born again."
