Fundamental Beliefs of Seventh-day Adventists

Scripture, accepting it as their only authority, will
be able to escape. All others have no protection and
will be swept away by this delusion.
The First and Second Deaths
The second death is the final punishment of
unrepentant sinners--all whose names are not
written is the book of life--that takes place at the
end of the 1000 years (see chapter 26). From this
death there is no resurrection. With the destruction
of Satan and the unrighteous, sin is eradicated and
death itself is destroyed (1 Cor. 15:26; Rev. 20:14;
21:8). Christ has given the assurance that everyone
"'who overcomes shall not be hurt by the second
death'" (Rev. 2:11).
Based on what Scripture has designated the
second death, we can assume that the first death is
what every person--except those who are
translated--experiences as a result of Adam's
transgression. It is "the normal outworking on
humanity of the degenerative effects of sin."[9]
