Sharon S.D.A. Church
Seventh-Day Adventists accept the Bible as their only creed and
holds certain fundamental beliefs to be the teaching of the Holy
Scriptures. These beliefs, as set forth here, constitute the church’s
understanding and expression of the teaching of Scripture. They 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.
23. Marriage and the Family
Marriage was divinely established in Eden and affirmed by Jesus to
be a lifelong union between a man and a woman in loving
companionship. For the Christian a marriage commitment is to God
as well as to the spouse, and should be entered into only between a
man and a woman who share a common faith. Mutual love, honor,
respect, and responsibility are the fabric of this relationship, which is
to reflect the love, sanctity, closeness, and permanence of the
relationship between Christ and His church. Regarding divorce, Jesus
taught that the person who divorces a spouse, except for fornication,
and marries another, commits adultery. Although some family
relationships may fall short of the ideal, a man and a woman who
fully commit themselves to each other in Christ through marriage
may achieve loving unity through the guidance of the Spirit and the
nurture of the church. God blesses the family and intends that its
members shall assist each other toward complete maturity. Increasing
family closeness is one of the earmarks of the final gospel message.
Parents are to bring up their children to love and obey the Lord. By
their example and their words, they are to teach them that Christ is a
loving, tender, and caring guide who wants them to become members
of His body, the family of God which embraces both single and
married persons. (Gen. 2:18-25; Exod. 20:12; Deut. 6:5-9; Prov. 22:6;
Mal. 4:5, 6; Matt. 5:31, 32; 19:3-9, 12; Mark 10:11, 12; John 2:1-11;
1 Cor. 7:7, 10, 11; 2 Cor. 6:14; Eph. 5:21-33; 6:1-4.)

Celebrating
“The Art of Love”
We offer our blessing upon each of you who have joined us in worship today. Our
prayer is that you receive the comfort, joy and hope you so stand in need of and
invite you to join us again for a Holy Spirit filled worship experience.
Ellen G White - “The Successful Family, Chapter 27”
“Let fathers and mothers make a solemn promise to God, whom they profess to
love and obey, that by His grace they will not disagree between themselves, but
will in their own life and temper manifest the spirit that they wish their children to
cherish”
“Parents should be careful not to allow the spirit of dissension to creep into the
home; for this is one of Satan's agents to make his impression on the character. If
parents will strive for unity in the home by inculcating the principles that governed
the life of Christ, dissension will be driven out, and unity and love will abide there.
Parents and children will partake of the gift of the Holy Spirit.”
CHURCH THEME
“United in Christ”
“That they all may be one; as thou, Father, are in me; and I in thee; that they also
may be one in us; that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. And the
glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we
are one: I in them; and thou in me, that may be made perfect in one; and that the
world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved
me. John 17:21-23
