Summary:

For all intents and purposes, Historic Adventists, who believe the twenty-eight Fundamental Beliefs of the Seventh-day Adventist church, cannot work hand in hand with Evangelicals and see them as Christian brothers and sisters. Rather, the Adventist will always have a hidden, or not so hidden, agenda to convert the Evangelical to Adventist “truth.” Adventists cannot see world evangelism as something that is happening through many Christian denominations; rather, it is measured only by Adventist success as others “come into the truth”—their “truth”.
    If Adventists really believed their message is as important and biblical as they claim, then why not openly and publicly proclaim that message? Why not call an inter-denominational Bible Conference and invite other Christian scholars to “check out” Adventist truth? What is the need for using so much deception in Adventist evangelism?
Adventists need to be honest with their history. They are quick to promote the keeping of the “commandments of God,” meaning of course, the Ten Commandments, with undue emphasis on the fourth. Yet it appears that often this church has not been honest in the way it has dealt with those who uncovered the truth—or should it be errors—of Adventism, nor has it been honest with its uninformed laity.
Evangelicals would do well to thoroughly investigate the beliefs of Adventists before working in unity with them in any Christian endeavor.
