About Us

Ripley Seventh-Day Adventist Church is a community of believers that believe in coming together to worship our Creator, loving each other, and setting aside time each week to rest in the assurance of God’s love.  We believe in letting biblical principles determine how we do church and how we live our lives. 

We desire to seek God through:

  • - Prayer: The Lord is near to all who call upon Him, To all who call upon Him in truth. (Psalm 145:18)
  • - Scripture: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. (John 1:1)
  • - Obedience: Now he who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him.  And by this we know that He abides in us, by the Spirit whom He has given us. (1 John 3:24)
  • - Fellowship: That they may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent me. (John 17:21)

Our Beliefs

Ripley SDA Church is a group of people who strive to be more like Jesus every day.

We come from all walks of life, but we’re all on this journey together.  Together, we’re learning to love others as Jesus does, discovering what it means to worship God in spirit and truth, and trusting Him in our lives.

28 Fundamental Beliefs

Seventh-day Adventists accept the Bible as the only source of our beliefs. We consider our movement to be the result of the protestant conviction Sola Scriptura—the Bible as the only standard of faith and practice for Christians.

Currently, Adventists hold 28 fundamental beliefs that can be organized into six categories—the doctrines of God, man, salvation, the church, the Christian life and last day events. In each teaching, God is the architect, who in wisdom, grace and infinite love, is restoring a relationship with humanity that will last for eternity.
