The Native Baptist Church, the First Jamaican Afro-Christian Movement Was Founded in 1783 by Ex-Slave, George Lisle The Native Baptist Church, the first Jamaican Afro-Christian movement was founded in 1783 by ex-slave, George Lisle. The American Methodist Society broke off from the Church of England in 1784 and called itself the Methodist Episcopal Church with Francis Asbury as its bishop. Methodists in Thirteen Colonies multiplied from 500 in 1771 to 15,000 in 1784, and then to 1,324,000 by 1850. The Second Great Awakening among Congregationalists and other New England churches began in 1792 and lasted for 30 years. Unitarians organized their own church in 1796. Widespread evangelistic camp meetings began in 1800 in America. The Kentucky Revival Awakenings had crowds of up to 25,000 and its meetings sweep through Kentucky, Tennessee and the Carolinas. When Martin Luther created the new religion of Protestantism he introduced a religion the focus turned to that of individualism. Each person could find salvation, read the Bible, interpret the Bible and live a Christian life as they saw it. The great revivals of the 18th and 19th centuries were very successful and many new Protestant churches were formed. Protestant influence probably played a role in creating the image of rugged American individualism of its pioneers. The newly created Protestant beliefs found a fertile seedbed in the American soil. The common man could study the Bible in his native language; the Holy Spirit would also reveal the true meanings directly to him. In addition, many local churches were self-governing and could choose their own pastors, teachers, elders, and deacons; most of whom had little or no formal education. When these were watered with the freedom of religion and speech new denominations and translation were created at a rate that could have never been imagined in Luther’s wildest dreams. What follows is the chronological order in which new denominations and translations came into being. Denominations are in bold type and translations are in regular type. Keep in mind that each new translation was someone’s “Word of God.” 1703 Daniel Whitby's Paraphrase Bible 1768 Harwood's Liberal Translation of the NT 1706 Presbyterian Church 1770 Old Light Baptists 1708 Brethren 1770 New Light Baptists 1718 The Nary New Testament 1772 Shakers (Ann Lee) 1724 The Common Translation (KJV) Corrected 1775 National Baptist Convention 1724 Melkite Church 1780 Free Will Baptist Church (North) 1727 Moravian Church 1784 Methodist Episcopal Church 1727 Free Will Baptist Church 1787 Church of the New Jerusalem 1729 Daniel Mace's Corrected King James Ver. 1787 Protestant Episcopal 1730 Pemberton and Rivington New Testament 1788 Douay Second Edition 1739 Methodist Church 1793 German Reformed Church (USA) 1741 New Side Presbyterian Church 1793 Universalists (England) 1741 Old Side Presbyterian Church 1796 Douay Third Edition 1744 Spiritualism 1796 African Methodist Episcopal Zion Ch. 1745 Primitive New Testament 1801 First Free Christian Church (Vermont) 1752 Reformed Presbytery 1807 Disciples of Christ 1755 Wesley's New Testament of the KJV 1807 Evangelical Church 1764 Purver's New Testament 1812 Fry Bible 2 BIBLICAL HERITAGE CENTER ● PO BOX 79 ● CLEBURNE, TX 76033 http://www.biblicalheritage.org 1816 African Methodist Episcopal Church 1872 German Evangelical Synod 1817 Harper's Illustrated Bible 1873 Union of Am.

That you may be blameless and guileless, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and perverted generation, among whom you shine as luminaries in the world, holding forth the word of life. (Phil. 2:15-16a) 2. And Jesus went about all the cities and the villages, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease and every sickness. (Matt. 9:35) 3. And seeing the crowds, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were harassed and cast away like sheep not having a shepherd. (Matt. 9:36) 4. Then He said to His disciples, The harvest is great but the workers are few; Therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest that He would thrust out workers into His harvest. (Matt. 9:37-38) 5. But no one can enter into the house of the strong man and thoroughly plunder his goods unless he first binds the strong man, and then he will thoroughly plunder his house.

    THE NEW JERUSALEM: THE CONSUMMATION OF GOD’S WORK IN HUMANITY by David Yoon o assert that God is a central character in the Bible is ultimate realization of God’s economy of salvation for Tperhaps to state the obvious, since He is the Author of humanity, the nature of this city has given rise to a wide the Scriptures, the Planner and Executor of the divine variety of studies.1 The vast majority of these studies find plan, and the Creator, Ruler, and Maintainer of the uni- this nature to be physical and material. A physical inter- verse and all things therein. Yet to perceive that humanity pretation of the New Jerusalem, whose roots may come is just as central a character as God in the Bible takes divine from present, earthly anxieties, does not measure up to the revelation. Nevertheless, it is a fact. Humanity is the focal scriptural revelation of God’s lofty purpose for the believ- point of God’s creation and economy. While humanity may ers’ eternal destiny.

  • BLACK Slavery As the Curse Of
    BLACK SLAVERY AS ‘THE CURSE OF HAM’— Bible Truth, Jewish Myth or Racist Apologetic? “And Noah said ‘Cursed be Canaan! A slave of slaves, a slave to his brothers! Blessed be God, the God of Shem, but Canaan shall be his slave. God prosper Japheth…But Canaan shall be his slave’.” (Gen., 9:25-27 Message) 1 Bro. Witness Lee (1905-1997) was an outstanding Bible teacher. His prodigious output of publications testifies to his ability as an expositor of Scripture. However, the “blended brothers’” posthumous exaltation of Witness Lee as the unique 2 “Minister of the Age” conferred upon him virtual infallibility. They assert that W. Lee’s 3 “ministry of the age subsumes and includes all the foregoing ministries. The whole New Testament ministry has been recovered…” His writings are ascribed a status equal to the Holy Scriptures, if not higher. To adherents W. Lee’s exposition of Scripture is the “Interpreted Word,”4 virtually inerrant, containing the Bible’s definitive interpretation. Given the undisputed primacy attributed to the “Ministry of the Age,” other interpretations (even on non- essentials) are not tolerated in the Lord’s recovery. “It is impossible for there to be different interpretations of the Scriptures…” LSM’s “blended brothers” assert,5 “Interpretational differences prove that some members have problems with the Head and are not under the Head.” Consequently LSM’s publication of the “gold bar” 6—the Recovery version of the Bible, enshrining W. Lee’s teaching in its footnotes,7 was hailed as the “canonization of the Interpreted Word,” an historic event on a par with the “canonization” of Scripture at the Council of Carthage in AD 397! These extravagant claims contrast starkly with the view espoused by most evangelical believers.
