THUSIA SEVENTH DAY ADVENTIST
Fundamental Beliefs
We of Thusia Seventh Day Adventist Church believe in fundamental principles that make us who we are as a distinct church and they are outlined as follows:
1. Justification by Faith - God can make an individual righteous by inputing righteousness within the heart of the person who believes and repent. That righteousness becomes the person's born again self, producing within the person the need to keep His holy law. (Eze 36:25-27; Rom 8:6; Rom 5:1; Rom 12:1).
2. Christ came in sinful human flesh yet without sin and thus has given us an exmple of how to live sinlessly perfect in this world. The flesh is not sin but it has been affected by sin having the liabilities and propensities. Meaning that Christ felt hungry, thirsty, tired etc but never allow it to cause Him to sin. ( Rom 8:3; 1Pet 1:19; Phil 2:5-8; Heb 2:17,18).
3. Sanctification is a continuation of the work of justification where God maintains His Righteousness within us. Thus we can overome sin in this present world. If someone sins, he or she must be justify again. Sanctification is not a upward and downward experience. (1John 3:6; 1John 5:4; Rev 21:7).
4. Investigative judgement or the existence of a heavenly sanctuary (Rev 11:18,19; Heb 8:1-3).
5. The law of God, including the Seventh Day Sabbath is to be kept as a fruit sign of what God is doing in the heart (Rev 12:17; Rev 14:17; Rom 3:27-31; Rev 22:14,15; Exodus 20:3-17; James 2:10-12).
6. Health Reform - We believe that one's body is the temple of the living God and therefore one should take care of what goes into the body. Therefore a vegan diet is what is propagated to maintain the bodies health. This form of diet is what was given at the beginning of time and scientifically proven to be the best form of diet for the well being of humanity. In addition, everything that is done should be done for the honor and glory of God ( Gen 2:16; Dan 1:8-15)
7. The literal appearing of Christ at His Second coming (Ps 50:3,4; Acts 1:10,11; 1Cor 15:51-54; Rev 1:7,8)
8. Dress Reform: We believe that in this sinful world one must dress properly and morally; being not conform to this world ( 1John 1:15; Rom 12:2; Rev 1:12,13)
