28 Fundamentals

The 28 Fundamentals are a core set of theological beliefs held by the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Traditionally, Adventists have been opposed to the formulation of creeds. It is claimed that the 28 Fundamentals are descriptors not prescriptors; that is, that they describe the official position of the church but are not a criteria for membership. The beliefs were known as the 27 Fundamentals and were originally adopted by the church's General Conference in 1980, with an additional belief (number 11) being added in 2005. The Adventist baptismal vow complements them.

They may be grouped into the doctrines of God, humankind, salvation, church, Christian life, and last things, and can be read online on the website of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.
