  • The Roles of Women in the Seventh-Day Adventist Church Significance of Ellen G
    VIII THE ROLES OF WOMEN IN THE SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH SIGNIFICANCE OF ELLEN G. WHITE COUNSELS E. Marcella Anderson Preface Although the Seventh-day Adventist Church draws its faith and doctrine from the Bible only (sola scriptura), it sees the work of Ellen G. White as a particular fulfillment of the gifts of the Holy Spirit to the church and a special bestowal of the “spirit of prophecy” in the end of time. The fact that a woman—Ellen G. White—was chosen by God (after two men had declined the commission) to be His special messenger to the remnant, makes her writings on the roles for women in the church especially pertinent. No other person had a greater impact upon the form and character of this church. “In ancient times God spoke to men by the mouth of prophets and apostles. In these days He speaks to them by the Testimonies of His Spirit. There was never a time when God instructed His people more earnestly than He instructs them now concerning His will and the course that He would have them pursue.”1 So this paper draws heavily upon Mrs. White’s writings as it attempts to portray God’s twentieth century counsel on the roles of women in this church. It will consider God’s call of women to positions of trust; it will canvass similarities and differences between the roles of men and women in the church; it will draw together counsel regarding specific callings for women; and finally it will attempt a summary and conclusions.

  • The Development of the Church of God Abrahamic Faith
    6 THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE CHURCH OF GOD ABRAHAMIC FAITH The Development of the Church of God Abrahamic Faith: 1845-1921 JAN STILSON, B.TH., B.S., M.A.L.S. Introduction Gary Land of Andrews University wrote, “After Christ failed to come in 1844 the Millerites splintered into several groups.”1 It is with those groups that we wish to begin and one of those groups will be the focus of this article. The non-Millerite groups that emerged after the Bitter Disappointment were primarily those who had not attended the Albany Conference, called by William Miller to salvage the splintered Adventist movement. The people who formed these groups had been part of the Adventist movement, but now wished to disassociate themselves from it. It might also be noted that the Millerite movement did not fail because “Christ failed to come.” Christ had not failed; rather, men erred by setting dates for his return. What were these groups? Several historians have defined and discussed them2 but this article is principally interested in the emerging groups as detailed by LeRoy Froom. Froom identifies three movements arising out of the Adventist movement: 1. The inheritors of the Millerite tradition, the Advent Christians; 2. Extremists from New England who eventually disappeared; 3. The Seventh Day Adventists who gained strength through the visions of Ellen White. I contend that there is a fourth branch, which Froom alluded to but did not thoroughly discuss. This branch began as the Age to Come movement, also 1 Gary Land, “Strangers Together: Adventism’s American Experience,” Newsletter of the Adventist Movements Historical Association, Pilot Issue 1993, Morrow, GA: Atlanta Bible College.

No. 204839 (Eliseo F. Soriano v. People of the Philippines and Daniel Veridiano) - Eliseo Soriano is known as the supreme head of the Church of God International or Ang Dating Daan. One of his followers, Daniel Veridiano, who worked as the assistant general-secretary of said church, filed two criminal cases for Rape against him docketed as Criminal Case Nos. 06-3898(M) and 06-3899(M). However, on the date of the scheduled arraignment, Soriano did not appear. On June 2, 2009, the Regional Trial Court (RTC) of Macabebe, Pampanga issued an Order for the cancellation and forfeiture of the cash bonds which Soriano posted, and for the issuance of a warrant for his arrest. Thereafter, Soriano moved to quash the two Informations on the grounds that: 1) the crime of anal intercourse, without consent, does not constitute the crime of Rape under Article 266-A of the Revised Penal Code (RPC); 2) the Informations violate the rule against duplicity under Section B, Rule 110 in relation to Section 3(f) of Rule 117 of the Rules of Court; and 3) the Informations violate his constitutional right to be informed of the charge against him. On August 3, 2009, the RTC issued another Order, this time, ordering the forfeiture of the cash bonds, denying Soriano' s motion to quash for lack of merit, and ordering the issuance of warrants of arrest.

  • Armstrongism and the Worldwide Church Of
    Armstrongism and the Worldwide Church of God I. WHERE THIS CULT ORIGINATED A. This cult can be traced back to a man by the name of Herbert W. Armstrong and his supposed divine appointments. 1. Herbert Armstrong started out his career asa promotional and advertising man in Des Moines, Iowa in 1912. But in 1920 his advertising business failed in what he described as a flash depression 2. In 1924 Armstrong moved to Oregon and on two more separate occasions his business enterprises `failed because of what he described as "forces beyond his control". 3. Sometime between 1924 and 1931 Armstrong was supposedly converted and began to write and do evangelistic work. 4. It is interesting to note that Armstrong's conversion came about through his wife's discovery and it was a conversion to what she had found. She believed that obedience to God's spiritual laws which were summed upin the ten commandments was necessary for salvation. 5. Armstrong at first set out to prove that his wife was wrong but later he concluded that she had indeed found the truth which meant to him that most of Christendom was not proclaiming the truth. 6. Armstrong was ordained in Eugene, Oregon in 1931 and began to conductevangelistic campaigns there. 7. In January 1934 Armstrong began a radio program in Eugene~ Oregon entitled "The World Tomorrow" and with his incredible speaking and promotional abilities he launched his cultist career filled with all kinds of false and heretical teachings. 8. At exactly 10A.M. on January 1934 Armstrong declared this to be the starting point of the fulfillment of 90% of all Bible prophecies.

  • The Holiness Movement the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly Part 1
    Community Bible Church Instructor: Bill Combs THE HOLINESS MOVEMENT THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE UGLY PART 1 I. INTRODUCTION A. Though the title of this series is “The Holiness Movement,” we actually will be taking a more comprehensive historical perspective. What is technically called the Holiness movement, as we will see, developed out of the Methodist Church in the middle of the 19th century (the 1800s) in American. It was an attempt to preserve the teachings on holiness of John Wesley (1703–1791), the founder of Methodism. Wesley came up with the new and unique idea of a second transforming work of grace that is distinct from and subsequent to the new birth. This second blessing of entire sanctification is just as powerful and transforming as the first transforming work of grace—the new birth or regeneration. The Methodist Church eventually forsook Wesley’s view of sanctification at the end of the 19th century, but the Holiness Movement continued to champion Wesley’s view. Part of this Holiness tradition led to what is called the Keswick (the “w” is silent) movement. It is the particular form of Holiness teaching found in the Keswick movement that is of most interest to us in our study the next few weeks. The Keswick movement began at the end of the 19th century and in the 20th century became the most common way of understanding the Bible’s teaching on holiness in fundamentalism and most churches in the broader evangelical tradition—Baptist churches, Bible churches, some Presbyterian churches (also many parachurch organizations, such as Campus Crusade for Christ).

  • Them That Believe
    010 Hoood Ch1-3 (1-51) 4/2/08 9:26 AM Page 1 chapter 1 “They Shall Take up Serpents” The contemporary serpent-handling churches of Appalachia remain fiercely independent. They have been referred to as the renegade churches of God. The phrase is apt, for these churches identify with the great Pentecostal movement at the turn of the twentieth century and two of the major denominations that emerged from it, the Church of God and the Church of God of Prophecy.1 However, in what is widely recog- nized as the official history of the Church of God, Charles Conn (1996) only reluctantly admits to the role of serpent handling, for this Pente- costal denomination no longer endorses that practice or the practice of drinking deadly poisons. In the first edition of his history, published in 1955, Conn relegated serpent handling to a single footnote. In the third and “definitive” edition, published in 1996, Conn reluctantly devotes a bit more space to the role of serpent handling in the church but still min- imizes its influence and effect. We discuss the initial endorsement and progressive abandonment of serpent handling by the Church of God in chapter 2 (see Hood, 1998; Hood, Hill, & Williamson, 2005, chap. 5; Williamson & Hood, 2004b). For now we want to note that the rene- gade churches scattered throughout Appalachia continue to believe and practice what many in the Church of God and the Church of God of Prophecy once perceived as normative. In the beginning, both denominations endorsed the plain meaning of Mark 16:17–18.

The "NEEDED ..JRUTH~semblies A Summary of their Origin, Distinctive Tenets, Organisation and Practices. by C.A.Oxley Author's Note: Having been brought up in the Needed Truth assemblies, I withdrew at the age of 35, when convinced that the party's exclusive position was contrary to the Lord's will. The withdrawal was effected without bitterness and the sole reason for accepting the kind invitation to write this article is to facilitate a study of the principles involved, a study which would, I believe, be of great benefit to all who are willing to undertake it honestly and diligently before the Lord. ORIGIN In the year 1882 a pamphlet was issued entitled "The Church and Churches of God: a suggestive outline of truth" by F.A.Banks, a young but respected minister of the Word among the assemblies. It dealt with the principles of assembly fellowship and, in the words of a recent Needed Truth publication 'was heralded by many godly and competent students of the New Testament as a great step forward in the understand­ ing of the will of the Lord on this very important matter.' This pamphlet greatly influenced a godly Irishman who subsequently wrote a booklet called •The One Thing for God, or the Churches of the New Testament" in which he wrote of F.A.Banks' pamphlet, ' ••• it may be quite possible to receive the teaching of that booklet and perhaps to be led out from lawless and 'loose' meetings, and yet, not having seen further light, stop short of deliverance unto the true pattern.' Reference is here made to Romans 6:17.
