Fundamental Beliefs of Seventh-Day Adventist
#6 Creation
God has revealed in Scripture the authentic and historical account of His
creative activity. He created the universe, and in a recent six-day creation
the Lord made "the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in
them" and rested on the seventh day. Thus He established the Sabbath as a
perpetual memorial of the work He performed and completed during six literal
days that together with the Sabbath constituted the same unit of time that we
call a week today. The first man and woman were made in the image of God as the
crowning work of Creation, given dominion over the world, and charged with
responsibility to care for it. When the world was finished it was "very
good".
