An Adventist Brother Asked Me Some Honest Questions — and My Answers Might Help Others Too.
An Adventist brother recently asked me a few sincere questions after I mentioned in my Post that I am no longer SDA.
His message came from a good place — not to argue, but to understand.
I realized that perhaps others might have the same questions in their hearts, or maybe my answers could bring clarity and peace to those who wonder why I chose a different path.
So, instead of repeating the story again and again, I decided to share it here — not out of frustration or pride, but out of love and transparency.
1. What is your advice for other Adventist Church members?
My advice to Adventist members is to hold fast to sincerity of faith and personal communion with God above all institutional loyalty. The Adventist message holds many beautiful truths, but truth itself must never become confined to a system. My hope is that each believer continues to study, to question, and to walk in deeper light as the Spirit leads. Faith must be a living journey — not a fixed structure — and love must remain greater than doctrinal debate.
2. Are you pleased to have followers?
No, I do not desire followers. My aim is not to create another group or movement, but to inspire souls to seek God personally. Christ alone is worthy to be followed. If anything I share draws others closer to truth, then glory be to God, but the focus should never shift from Him to a human messenger.
3. If they follow, will they be organised or just a folk without rules and policies?
Any gathering that arises from shared conviction should be bound by divine principles, not human control. True order is the fruit of the Spirit, not the product of bureaucracy. If people walk together in pursuit of truth and love, their unity will be spiritual, not institutional — governed by conscience and guided by God’s Word rather than man-made policies.
4. Do you believe that God has a Church (visible) on Earth which stands as the pillar of the Truth?
Yes, but not limited to one denomination or organization. The true Church of God is made up of all who live by His Spirit and walk in His truth, regardless of name or system. As Scripture says, “The Lord knows those who are His.” (2 Timothy 2:19) The visible institutions may hold portions of truth, but the fullness of Christ’s body transcends walls and labels. Wherever people reflect His love and uphold His Word, there stands the Church — living, visible, and real.

I’ll be sharing the deeper reasons behind my decision — not in bitterness, but in truth and love.
