What do Seventh-day Adventists believe? And are they a cult group? In this episode, we’re going to break down some of the major teachings of the Adventist Church. I’ll share my thoughts on whether they’re Christians with questionable theology or if they fall into the category of a non-Christian cult. And by the end, I’ll answer questions like, “Are Seventh-day Adventists saved?” and “Will we see them in Heaven?”
