The Seventh-day Adventist Church is an evangelical [[Christian]] [[denomination]]. The Seventh-day Adventist Church grew out of the [[Millerite]] movement in the United States during the middle part of the 19th century. Commencing with an exploration of the concept of an "investigative judgment", the movement soon developed some distinguishing features such as the belief that Saturday is the [[Sabbath]] and a belief that death is an unconscious, nondescript state, until an imminent, global Second Advent of [[Christ]].
