"The Second Advent is the pivot of our faith.
The name Seventh-day Adventist distinguishes us from the other Adventist- centered groups, and is a broadened elaboration of the central theme of our hope—the second coming of Jesus.
In Matthew 24:48 it is pointed out that it is the evil servant who declares, "My Lord delayeth his coming."
--Here God is blamed for the delay.
No faithful servant of God will be found making such an accusation today.
--It is just as impossible that God is to blame for the delay in His return as it is that He was to blame for the delay of the children of Israel in entering the earthly Canaan."
