The Adventist family of churches are regarded today as conservative Protestants.1 While they hold much in common, their theology differs on whether the intermediate state is unconscious sleep or consciousness, whether the ultimate punishment of the wicked is annihilation or eternal torment, the nature of immortality, whether or not the wicked are resurrected, and whether the sanctuary of Daniel 8 refers to the one in heaven or on earth.1 The movement has encouraged the examination of the Old Testament, leading some to observe the Sabbath and others to use the name Jehovah for God.

Its most vocal leader was William Miller. Between 50,000 and 100,000 people in the United States supported Miller's predictions of Christ's return.1 After the Great Disappointment of October 22, 1844 many people in the movement gave up on Adventism, some gave up on Christianity, whereas others gave up on predicting dates for the Advent second coming of Jesus. Those who held on to Adventist beliefs formed several smaller bodies. The largest group was the American Millennial Association, a portion of which was later known as the Evangelical Adventist Church, but has diminished to almost non-existence today.1 The Adventist family of churches are regarded today as conservative Protestants.1 While they hold much in common, their theology differs on whether the intermediate state is unconscious sleep or consciousness, whether the ultimate punishment of the wicked is annihilation or eternal torment, the nature of immortality, whether or not the wicked are resurrected, and whether the sanctuary of Daniel 8 refers to the one in heaven or on earth.1 The movement has encouraged the examination of the Old Testament, leading some to observe the Sabbath and others to use the name Jehovah for God.

Davidian Seventh-day Adventist Association Main article: Shepherd's Rod The Davidians originally named Shepherd's Rod are made up primarily of disfellowshipped former members of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. They were originally known as the Shepherd's Rod and are still referred to as such. The group derives its name from two books on Bible doctrine written by their founder, Victor Houteff, in 1929. In these books The Shepherd's Rod Book Volumes 1 and 2 Houteff made reference to verse 9 in the sixth chapter of the biblical book of Micah: The Lord's voice crieth unto the city, and the man of wisdom shall see thy name: Hear ye the rod, and who hath appointed it. Advent Christian Church Main article: Advent Christian Church The Advent Christian Church is a first-day body of Adventist Christians founded on the teachings of William Miller. Primitive Advent Christian Church Main article: Primitive Advent Christian Church The Primitive Advent Christian Church is a small body of Adventist Christians which separated from the Advent Christian Church. They have a common early history. Adventists who had adopted the conditional immortality views of Charles F. Hudson and George Storrs formed the Advent Christian Association in Salem, Massachusetts in 1860. Church of God General Conference Main article: Church of God General Conference Abrahamic Faith The Church of God General Conference is an Adventist Christian body which is also known as the Church of God of the Abrahamic Faith and the Church of God General Conference Morrow, GA. The Church of the Blessed Hope, some of whose congregations use the name Church of God of the Abrahamic Faith are a separate denomination. United Seventh-Day Brethren Main article: United Seventh-Day Brethren The United Seventh-Day Brethren is a small sabbatarian Adventist body. In 1947, several individuals and two independent congregations within the Church of God Adventist movement came together to form the United Seventh-Day Brethren, seeking to increase fellowship and to combine their efforts in evangelism, publications, and other ministries.
