Dear Diogenesister,
Just to fill in with some of your questions. The SDAs would say they have the remnant message. They say the 144000 is a symbolic number and they would also say christians that have accepted the merits of christ are saved and go to heaven. Gods church is not just one denomination.
The only area the JWs and the SDAs are similar now is in the area of using the historicist method in bible prophesy and in fact they are the only two denominations now using this method.
The SDAs would have more similarities with more main stream churches and they do emphasise the soon return of Jesus.
When i joined with the Anglicans the main problem I had was with their Calvinism because the Adventist are more Arminian. Remember TULIP and the Arminians had a similar five beliefs to counter Calvin.

Diogenesister,
I believe Joe is interested in investigating I was born into the SDA church and baptised and I still have interest in how they are going because I have friends and relatives their also I became a christian at 23 by the witness to me by an SDA pastor I truely respect.
My family and I now attend an Anglican church just down the road from where I live, Less travelling. I attended Anglican scripture classes during my school years so the Anglicans are very close to me also.
The SDAs think they are the remnant of revelation and have perfect doctrine this is what annoys me about them whereas the Anglicans are more open and accept a more open interpretation on what a christian church is. Not all SDAs think this way but it does exist.

The SDAs have extensive evangelism in Africa, South America and China and his is what builds their numbers. I also don't think the 35 million is accurate.
The SDAs are facing problems at this time there could be two Adventist churches soon because differences between them are being promoted. The general conference is at odds with the unions and conferences over compliance in five areas. Womens ordination, Church doctrine, Homosexuality, Evolution etc. Five committees have been set up to ensure compliance and the unions and conferences are upset. Disciplinary action has been talked about by the General conference such as shaming conference leaders before they are allowed to talk in committees. Many conferences have written to the General conference objecting to such unchristian and undemocratic suggestions. Many women have been made pastors by the conferences and is a thorn in the side of the general conference. Also the SDAs are not a creedal church but the General are trying to make the 28 fundamentals a creed. Time will tell what will happen

https://youtu.be/39ZfrO0UW_s There is an interest story to this one because the mormons sing this and have changed the words because they don't believe the trinity doctrine. Also the SDA church didn't believe the trinity doctrine in th early 1900 but sang this song with 'God reigns eternally' now because the trinity doctrine is accepted by most SDAs they sing the original ' God in three persons blessed trinity' and also the holy holy holy denotes the trinity. Not to be sung in the KH ever.
