  1. "The Seventh-day Adventist Church respects each individual’s freedom of choice to make responsible decisions regarding their own health."
  2. "The decision whether to take the vaccine or not is not a matter of salvation, nor is it related, as some may suggest, to the mark of the beast. It is a matter of personal choice."
  3. "We firmly believe that in matters of personal conviction we must be guided by the Word of God, our conscience, and informed judgment."
  4. "We recognize that at times our members will have personal concerns and even conscientious convictions that go beyond the teachings and positions of the Church."
  5. "Since our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit and we are Christ’s both by creation and redemption, we should personally seek God’s will about COVID-19 vaccinations."
  6. "After personally researching all sides of the question, considering one’s own unique health situation, seeking medical counsel, and praying, individuals should then, in consultation with their medical advisor/doctor, make the best choice possible."
