Lifestyle<br />

Christian behaviour arises out of gratitude for<br />

what God has done for us and our desire to honour<br />

Him. Among other th<strong>in</strong>gs, we believe we have a<br />

responsibility to care for our bodies with adequate<br />

exercise, rest and a healthful diet. Many Seventhday<br />

<strong>Adventist</strong>s are vegetarians. We absta<strong>in</strong> from the<br />

unclean foods identified <strong>in</strong> the Scriptures as well as<br />

alcoholic beverages, tobacco and the irresponsible use<br />

of drugs and narcotics.<br />

Second Com<strong>in</strong>g<br />

<strong>Adventist</strong>s believe that Jesus will come aga<strong>in</strong> to deliver<br />

His people and to restore all th<strong>in</strong>gs. It will be a literal<br />

and personal return.<br />

New Earth<br />

God is prepar<strong>in</strong>g a perfect world where He will live<br />

with His people forever. This eternal home will be a<br />

perfect environment free of pa<strong>in</strong> and death. It will be<br />

a real place where people fully experience everlast<strong>in</strong>g<br />

life, love and joy <strong>in</strong> fellowship with the Father, Son and<br />

Holy Spirit.
