Seventh-Day Adventist's Fundamental Beliefs
8. The Great Controversy
All humanity is now involved in a great controversy
between Christ and Satan regarding the character of God, His
law, and His sovereignty over the universe. This conflict originated
in heaven when a created being, endowed with freedom of choice,
in self-exaltation became Satan, God's adversary, and led into
rebellion a portion of the angels. He introduced the spirit of
rebellion into this world when he led Adam and Eve into sin.
This human sin resulted in the distortion of the image of God
in humanity, the disordering of the created world, and its eventual
devastation at the time of the worldwide flood. Observed by the
whole creation, this world became the arena of the universal
conflict, out of which the God of love will ultimately be vindicated.
To assist His people in this controversy, Christ sends the Holy
Spirit and the loyal angels to guide, protect, and sustain them
in the way of salvation.
