One of the 28
Fundamental Beliefs of the
00:00:07.43\00:00:10.20
Seventh Day Adventist Church
is Unity in the body of Christ.
00:00:10.23\00:00:13.94
The church is one
body with many members
00:00:13.97\00:00:16.98
called from every nation,
kindred, tongue, and people.
00:00:17.01\00:00:20.15
In Christ we are a new creation,
distinctions of race, culture,
00:00:20.18\00:00:25.19
learning and nationality.
And differences between high
00:00:25.22\00:00:28.81
and low, rich and poor, male
and female, must not be divisive
00:00:28.84\00:00:33.71
among us.
00:00:33.74\00:00:34.83
We are all equal in Christ
who by one spirit has bonded us
00:00:34.86\00:00:40.04
into one fellowship with
him and with one another.
00:00:40.07\00:00:43.31
We are to serve and be
served without partiality
00:00:43.34\00:00:47.19
or reservation through
the revelation of Jesus Christ
00:00:47.22\00:00:50.95
in the scriptures we
share the same faith and hope
00:00:50.98\00:00:54.34
and reach out in
one witness to all.
00:00:54.37\00:00:56.92
This unity has it's source
in the oneness of the triune God
00:00:56.95\00:01:00.81
who has adopted
us as His children.
00:01:00.84\00:01:03.53
Romans 12:4 For as we
have many members in one body,
00:01:03.56\00:01:08.77
but all the members do
not have the same function.
