About Us
The Newburgh Tabernacle Seventh-day Adventist Church has been serving the Newburgh community since 1968. You can sum our beliefs up as the 4 C’s. We believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. We believe in the Bible and acknowledge it as the Word of God. We follow the ten commandments as listed in the Bible, including the fourth, which refers to the seventh-day Sabbath as observed by Jesus Himself. We believe that Jesus came to earth, lived a perfect life, was crucified on the cross and rose again – thus giving all of humanity the gift of eternal life. We believe that Jesus is coming again to take those who believe in Him to heaven and to eradicate sin from this world.
What We Believe
Adventists believe a Trinity of three persons - the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit - make up one God. They made salvation possible when Jesus, the Son, came to earth as a baby in Bethlehem and lived a sinless life in accordance with the Father's will. When Jesus was crucified for the sins of the people of the world and arose from the dead on the third day, victory was won for everyone.
When He returned to heaven following the resurrection, Jesus left the Holy Spirit to serve as our Comforter and Counselor. He promised to return to earth a second time to complete His plan of salvation and take His people to heaven. Adventists are among the believers who look forward to that day.
Adventists believe that God is concerned with the quality of human life, and that everything - the way we live, eat, speak, think, treat each other, and care for the world around us - is part of His plan. Our families, our children, our jobs, our talents, our money, and our time are all important to Him.
