On the question of theater-going, movies, television and dancing, we believe that a Seventh-Day Christian should be guided by the Holy Spirit, keeping in mind that He would not advocate any form of entertainment that is not wholesome, educational and uplifting.

In harmony with 2 Corinthians 6:14-18, Seventh-Day Christians should be taught that they should take as marriage partners only those who fully accept the Word of God as given in the Bible, receive Jesus Christ as their Savior, and obey the Commandments of God, including the Fourth or Sabbath precept.
The Seventh-Day Christian Conference believes that war and its resultant destruction of human lives deny the Scriptural Principle of Love. The Conference, therefore, is against having its members bear arms in any of the armed forces. It expressly is against having its members being taught to kill under any circumstances based on the biblical injunction found in Exodus 20:13 which states, "Thou shalt not kill." The Conference, however, is not opposed to activities which would assist in the preservation of human lives and/or the development of human resources.
The Word of God only mentions that men should be ordained as bishops, elders or pastors. There is no mention of a woman ever having been ordained, therefore only men will be ordained as bishops, elders or pastors of the Seventh-Day Christian Conference. However, when a woman (e.g. evangelist, etc) is fulfilling the full duties of bishop, elder or pastor, she should be completely compensated. Titus 1:5,6;1 Timothy 3:12.
We believe that Christians should dress in a manner such that a man would not be mistaken for a woman nor a woman for a man. Deuteronomy 22:5.
The Seventh-Day Christian's appearance should be in harmony with his/her beliefs. The Christian dress code should reflect godliness and sobriety. Therefore, the Seventh-Day Christian should avoid inappropriate dress, that is excessive, ostentatious / flamboyant, provocative and expensive. 1 Timothy 2:9,10; 1 Peter 3:3,4; Genesis 35:1-4.
We further recommend that Seventh-Day Christians should refrain from wearing jewelry and excessive make-up as a policy and practice of the organization.
