  • Acc to Wikipedia: The Creation Seventh Day (and) Adventist Church is a Christian movement formed by a small group that broke off of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in 1988 and officially became a Church in 1991.[1][2][3] The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) ruled in 2006 that the church must not have a domain name which included references to seventh day adventist as they are not recognized by the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, who own trademarks on the term.[4][5] The group holds[14] to certain Adventist beliefs,[15] such as the observance of the seventh day Sabbath, avoiding unclean meats, death as a sleep, the investigative judgment, and an imminent Second Coming of Christ. Church House in Guys, TN, 2006The more notable doctrines include: an experience of complete victory over known sins for the born again believer, a rejection of the doctrine of the Trinity,[16] a separation of Church and State (i.e., a rejection of the idea that governmental agencies possess the authority to intrude upon freedom of religion), the keeping of New Moons, and religious accountability for a church's actions. The observance of some of the Annual Feasts found in the Old Testament and use of the names יהוה (Yahweh) and יהושע (Yahshua) for the Father and Son of the Godhead in worship are generally practiced by members, although these are not dogmatically taught.[17] While differing from modern Seventh-day Adventists on the matters listed above[18], their doctrines regarding religious accountability were practiced and observed by early prominent Adventist leaders[19][20], although there is a one-hundred year timespan between the initial doctrines, and McGill's extension of them. The CSDA Church also believes in the continuity of spiritual gifts, not only accepting the prophetic ministry of Ellen Gould White, (1827-1915) co-founder of the Seventh-day Adventist church, but also that of two living members, Walter "Chick" McGill and David P. Aguilar, Jr.[citation needed] The CSDA Church holds strict views on church membership, claiming that once one has come into unity with Christ, unity with His Church (which they hold to be themselves) will be the natural result, with one not being valid while rejecting the other.[21] Unlike the Seventh-day Adventist Church, the CSDA constituency has voted the returning of tithes as a test of fellowship,[22] using the reasoning of Malachi 4:8 (KJV): "Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings." As a failure to return tithes is considered stealing, they reason a violation of tithing to be an example of robbery and thus a transgression of the eighth commandment. The CSDA constituency believes in private Christian education, and in 2003, Pastor Walter "Chick" McGill opened the first CSDA educational facility on the Guys property.[23][24]
