Progressive Adventism information

Progressive Adventists are members of the Seventh-day Adventist Church who prefer different emphases or disagree with certain beliefs traditionally held by mainstream Adventism and officially by the church.^[1] While they are often described as liberal Adventism by other Adventists, the term "progressive" is generally preferred as a self-description.^[2] This article describes terms such as evangelical Adventism, cultural Adventism, charismatic Adventism, and progressive Adventism and others, which are generally related but have distinctions.

Progressives typically disagree with one or more of the church's basic beliefs such as the Sabbath or "distinctive" beliefs such as the investigative judgment, the remnant, a future global Sunday-law, or a use of Ellen G. White's writings.^[3] They also tend to question some of the denomination's 28 fundamental beliefs: with debate arising on the nature of the Trinity, perpetuity of the Law of God, the Nature of Christ, the Gift of Prophecy, Creation or observance of the seventh-day Sabbath."^[4]^[5]

It also has many similarities with the ecumenical emerging church movement, as both are characterized by their disillusionment with the organized and institutional church.^[6]^{[better source needed]}^[opinion] Perceptions and definitions of it may differ somewhat depending on the author, although much in common is also clearly discernible.^[opinion]
