There shouldn't be any NPOV problems, the sources in the article are from valid Baptist sources from outside Seventh Day Baptists, and the references from Don Sanford's book stand as academic research which has not been refuted. I'm not sure why this article is tagged for having no sources...the four listed on the bottom of the article are all from well respected and various academic religious studies presses. Is there a way to get that tag removed? [[User:Sdbhist|Sdbhist]] 18:52, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

I reverted Australian back to Australasian. Anyone who checks the link will see that this was not a mispelling, but the actual name of the conference. 65.163.116.70 14:26, 9 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Seventh Day Baptists and Seventh Day Adventists

The Seventh Day Adventist are actually a "splinter" group who separated from the Seventh Day Baptists in the mid-1800's. It took a long time for them not to be considered a cult. Today they have many more churches and are far more commonplace than the Sabbatarians. I am not quoting from references, rather repeating a converstation with a SDA minister. According to him the SDA followers chose to take another path because the SDB values were too liberal! Surprising if you knew how conservative those folks were, and are.

My understanding is that Seventh Day Adventists are directly connected to the Millerite movement. They "discovered" the Sabbath in a discussion with a Seventh Day Baptist, but never considered themselves to be Seventh Day Baptist.
