Are Ellen White's writings more important than the scriptures?

No. This is the accepted position of the Seventh-Day Adventist Church on Ellen White's writings: "The writings of Ellen White are not a substitute for Scripture. They cannot be placed on the same level. The Holy Scriptures stand alone, the unique standard by which her and all other writings must be judged and to which they must be subject" (Seventh-day Adventists Believe . . . ,Ministerial Association, General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, Washington D.C., 1988, p. 227). Ellen White herself says: "God will have a people upon the earth to maintain the Bible, and the Bible only, as the

standard of all doctrines and the basis of all reforms. The opinions of learned men, the

deductions of science, the creeds or decisions of ecclesiastical councils, as numerous and

discordant as are the churches which they represent, the voice of the majority...not one

nor all of these should be regarded as evidence for or against any point of religious faith.

Before accepting any doctrine or precept we should demand a plain "Thus saith the Lord'

in its support" (Great Controversy, p. 595).

Why do Adventists teach that you go to heaven Christ is coming to establish his kingdom on earth for 1000 years at the end the rest of the dead are resurrected and God the Father resides with man?

Actually, they don't. Seventh-day Adventists teach that only a few people have gone to heaven to this point in earth's history: Enoch and Elijah without dying, and Moses and Jesus after being resurrected. The rest of those who have died have ceased to exist until they are resurrected, as if they were asleep (the term for this concept is "soul sleep"). After Christ's coming, when the dead in Christ will be resurrected, all the saved will go to heaven for 1000 years. At the end of the 1000 years, God, the saved, and the New Jerusalem will come to earth. Then the lost will be resurrected and will be fooled by Satan into trying to take the city, but Satan, his angels, and all the lost will be destroyed at that time, and God will make the earth the new center of his government. That's when God's kingdom will be on earth, and that is when God will truly dwell with men.

Why do Adventists teach that? Because it is in the Bible, in the book of Revelation.

Some of our employees choose to have prayer with patients or other employees a practice that is supported by Adventist Health. How do you feel about employees having prayer with patients?

A:Patients are in a position of dependency on hospital staff and may feel they have no choice but to participate. It could be hard to establish fairly whether patients would genuinely wish prayers to be said in their presence, and even whether they participate willingly. To hold prayers with patients without their free and willing participation would be an abuse of power. It could in certain circumstances even be a breach of human rights.

Having prayer sessions with other employees can be perfectly acceptable is this does not impact on work performance, provided that no one feels pressured to participate. Pressure can be implicit, such as the fear of social rejection or the belief that promotion could depend on participation, but if all employees are Adventists, this is not an unsurmountable hurdle.

Can a Seventh-day Adventist have a reception on the Sabbath?

I have asked myself this question also, and have come to the conclusion through study and family guidance that, as a Seventh-day Adventist, a reception would not be advisable on the Sabbath, because the things that people do during receptions such as dancing and celebrating the couple and worldly traditions are not really Sabbath activities, and because the focus is not on God.

Why do people attack the Seventh Day Adventist church with untrue accusations Could it be that Satan is trying to attack another group of bible-believing Christians?

When I see that people attack others it is usually FEAR. Fear is the response to misunderstanding. When you don't know enough about motive or basis for belief attacks occur in nature and humans. Even though I am not Adventist I take the same stand that Joseph at the Sanhedrin did. If it is true and wise time will prove it right or wrong. Bless you in your own faith journey.

What is the Seventh-Day Adventist view of stewardship?

I'm a Seventh-day Adventists and we believe that we are God's stewards entrusted by Him with time and opportunities, abilities and possessions, and the blessings of the earth and its resources. We acknowledge God's ownership by faithful service to Him and our fellow men, and by returning tithes and offerings for the proclamation of His gospel and the support and growth of His church. Stewardship is a priviledge given to us by God for nurture in love and the victory over selfishness and covetousness.
