Do Seventh -day believe in Hell?

Yes, but our beliefs on hell differ from many other denominations. In general we believe hell to be an event more than a place. At the end of the world, the wicked are burned up by hellfire and destroyed, but they do not continue to burn for all eternity. An in depth study of Biblical language and teachings show that the "everlasting" fire is fire that lasts until life ends. In this way, we believe in hell as an event that destroys the wicked, but not a place of eternal torment of the wicked. Simply their eternal destruction.

Why did God bless the seventh day and make it Holy?

This is because, in the christian religion, it is said that God created the Earth in six days and rested on the seventh. Just as he worked for six days and rested on the seventh day (sabbath), man should rest on the seventh day and give worship to the creator. The day of worship was changed by the Roman Catholics from Saturday to Sunday for some unknown reason. Due to this change, the Catholic Denomination of Christianity was created.

What is a summary of chapter 28 of the Great Controversy?

This is the scene in Daniel revealing the judgment of each individual. It is called the pre-advent judgment. Those who are already dead will be judged first, then those alive who claim to be Christ's followers and then the rest of the living. You will be judged on either the merits of Christ's blood thus being saved, or the merits of your works which do not qualify you to be saved. If you claim the merits of Christ's blood, then your name is recorded in the Lamb's book of life (see Revelation) and if not, then your name is recorded in the book of deeds. After this judgment (which is NOW ongoing) is completed, Christ shall return to give his reward (see Matt. and 2 Thes.). There is no other opportunity to be saved. It is a matter of who you believe and worship: Christ and God for whom it is impossible to lie or Satan who mixes lies with truth and is the father of lies.

A Seventh-day Adventist who becomes a Christian minister of the gospel within that denomination is called a "pastor" or a "minister".

The General Conference is led by one person, known as the GC president. The current GC president is Jan Paulsen.

Are Adventist churches supposed to be under a conference or can they be independent?

Local Seventh-day Adventist churches are part of a local district, which is part of conference/union, which is part of a division, which is part of the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists. The hierarchy may vary a little bit in different areas or divisions, but that is the general organization. If a church becomes "independent," it ceases to be a Seventh-day Adventist church. To put it another way, the Seventh-day Adventist denomination does not follow congregationalist polity (hence the term "denomination"), but instead it is hierarchical.
