[Serious] The Story

[John 6IX Breezy]

Apologies to everyone. I didn't notice the thread was getting responses. Here's a short rough summary of the narrative in SDA circles, both for comparison and as an example for what I'm looking for:

The central plot revolves around a universal conflict regarding God's laws and character. It is said that there was war and rebellion in heaven and that this rebellion was later taken to Earth. After the creation, humanity got involved in this political and philosophical controversy between good and evil, in a very real and personal way. And since humanity fell via deception not rebellion, the plan of salvation is intended to restore humanity to its original place. Adam was created perfect and brought humanity down into sin, Christ was born into sin and brings humanity back up to perfection.

SDA's believe that earth is not only the arena for that warfare, but that God is essentially on trial here. This is where claims against his character, laws, and sovereignty are being put to the test for the universe to see. The warfare is supposed to end with the earth and humanity being restored, God's government being proved right, and sin and the rebellion being removed.

I believe this is the official church statement/explanation of it: https://www.adventist.org/the-great-controversy/
