Sacred Name Movement
Appearance
The Sacred Name Movement (SNM) is a group within Adventism that focuses on using the Hebrew name of God.[1] Inspired by Clarence Orvil Dodd, the movement thinks using God's name is very important, like the Jewish festivals. People in SNM also usually follow many Old Testament laws, like keeping the Sabbath on Saturday, celebrating Torah festivals, and eating food laws called kashrut.[2] The movement also does not believe in the Trinity, saying it is not in the Bible.[3]
