ABOUT US

Pastor Nathaniel Lyles

Hillcrest S.D.A. Church On The Move

Seventh-day Adventist beliefs are meant to permeate your whole life. Growing out of scriptures that paint a compelling portrait of God, you are invited to explore, experience and know the One who desires to make us whole.


1

The Bible is the word of God, showing us how to live. It reveals God’s will and teaches us timeless lessons we can apply to all parts of our lives. This book tells us who God is, where we came from, how much God loves us, and how we can live out His love in our own lives. That alone makes it the most precious book on earth—a steady constant in a world that is always changing.

Seventh-day Adventist Christians believe there is one God. And that this one God is three co-eternal beings who work together in unity. The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit have always been, and always will be.

It’s impossible to wrap our finite minds around this infinite concept. How does the doctrine of the Trinity work? How can there be one God, but three persons?

The Bible tells us that God is our Father—a good, perfect, loving Father. Human fathers may fail us, but we have a Father in Heaven who loves us with a perfect, unconditional love.

Jesus taught us to call Him “our father.” He exists in eternal and mysterious unity with the Son and the Holy Spirit as one Godhead, and is the source of everything in existence.

Seventh-day Adventists embrace what the Bible teaches us about God, the all-knowing, all-powerful, benevolent Father.

The Holy Spirit is the third person of the Godhead, or the Trinity. He is the One who guides us into a closer walk with Christ. The Holy Spirit is fully God, more than an influence or a force. He has the personhood and mind of God, and performs a special duty to help us connect with God the Father. The Spirit also guides us in our lives. 

He was sent by Christ as the personal presence of God for those dwelling on earth. When received, the Spirit will transform your life to reflect Jesus Christ
