Seventh-day Adventist Church Manual, IASD

Why does the Seventh-day Adventist Church have a Church Manual?
God is a God of order, as evidenced in his works of creation and redemption. Therefore, order belongs to the essence of your church. Order is achieved through principles and norms that guide the Church in her internal operations and in the fulfillment of her mission to the world. For it to be a successful church organization serving the Lord and humanity, it needs order, regulations, and discipline. The Scriptures affirm: "Let everything be done decently and in order" (1 Cor. 14:40).
