Which paper became the official voice of the Seventh-day Adventist Church?

• A. The Adventist Review and Sabbath Herald
• B. The Present Truth
• C. The Adventist Review
• D. The Great Controversy

Answer: (A)

In Adventist history, the church used its publications as the primary channel to speak with one voice to members around the world. The periodical that grew into the church’s official organ was the Adventist Review and Sabbath Herald, published by the Review and Herald Publishing Association. It served as the formal channel for General Conference news, doctrinal clarifications, leadership messages, and other official communications, making it the church’s authoritative voice. Later, the title was shortened to The Adventist Review, but it continued to fulfill the same role. The other options aren’t the church’s official organ—Present Truth was an earlier Adventist publication, and The Great Controversy is a book, not a periodical.
