the Fullerton Seventh-day Adventist Church

The Problem
Our beloved Fullerton Seventh-Day Church has over the past few decades fallen prey to the deceiver.  We've suffered long under a fractured and disillusioned leadership.  Though various pastors have come and gone, none have been able to completely rid the church of the wolves who hold the body hostage by the same affliction of the Pharisees during Christ's time—self-righteousness.  This sin has long corrupted these self-empowered, once well intentioned "saints" who have been given over to the delusion of perceived ownership of God's church instead of a humble stewardship of our wonderful campus entrusted to us.  The persistent attitude of this long standing administration has transformed the "hospital for the sick", into a "club" of conservatism and exclusivity with which they're not afraid to hit anyone, unlike themselves, over the head with.  The facts are obvious:  an unhealthy, unproductive, dying church, filled with sycophants in leadership positions.  This once thriving church can no longer support itself, and our church body is kept blind to the condition that afflicts it.  We are desperately in need of a Savior.

 

 

Hear what the Holy Spirit says to the churches.

  • Plenty of beautiful, unused space
  • Declining or steady number of baptism, attendance, and giving
  • Worship services are proper but "blah"
  • Little excitement for outreach or mission to save the lost
  • Sins of the saints tolerated
  • Few new and young families
  • Church work is perceived as what takes place inside the church building only
  • Message is biblically-sound but does not connect with the need of people, or needs-based ministry but without reference to what the Bible says
  • Prevailing sense of complacency
  • Chronic shortage of leaders
  • Leaders and members function out of a sense of duty, rather out of joy and vision
  • Witness and outreach effort are done mainly by the pastors
  • Real decision-making is done in a small group of older, better-known members
  • A high percentage of inactive members

Do any of these
describe the
Fullerton SDA Church?

This is a call for change.

 

Pray for our church!

 Fullerton Adventist SDA Church

Seventh-day Adventist

The Fullerton SDA Church

Praise be to God. He is in control.  This prophetic message given to me and those who love our church, those who have children whom we desire will worship Christ and attend this church in the future is to be patient.

Change will come and the year 2015 will be a time of very special and wonderful change.

Our Fullerton Seventh-day Adventist Church will finally be renewed by the Spirit—It will soon be a refuge for those who desire forgiveness.  It will once again be filled with the Spiritually hungry being fed with the Word and shine as a beacon of light to the community.

Scripture will be the guide and not tradition.  The Fullerton SDA church will once again be transformed!  Praise the Lord.  Praise the Creator of all.  Praise His son Christ!
