dc.description.abstract<p>This chapter reports the responses of teachers employed in Seventh-day Adventist schools in Australia and the Solomon Islands to questions that probe their understanding of salvation. While most respondents agree that they are saved at the moment they accept Jesus, there is evidence of a variety of views in relation to questions about the role of the law and obedience and the assurance of salvation. This variation is not unexpected given the disagreements about salvation that have emerged throughout the Seventh-day Adventist Church's history. However, such variation could lead to students receiving confusing messages about salvation. A comparison of the responses from teachers in Australia and the Solomon Islands also reveals a markedly different spread of answers to questions on these topics.</p>
