ABSTRACT THE ORIGIN, DEVELOPMENT, AND HISTORY OF THE NORWEGIAN SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH FROM THE 1840s TO 1887 by Bjorgvin Martin Hjelvik Snorrason Adviser: Jerry Moon ABSTRACT OF GRADUATE STUDENT RESEARCH Dissertation Andrews University Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary Title: THE ORIGIN, DEVELOPMENT, AND HISTORY OF THE NORWEGIAN SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH FROM THE 1840s TO 1887 Name of researcher: Bjorgvin Martin Hjelvik Snorrason Name and degree of faculty adviser: Jerry Moon, Ph.D. Date completed: July 2010 This dissertation reconstructs chronologically the history of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Norway from the Haugian Pietist revival in the early 1800s to the establishment of the first Seventh-day Adventist Conference in Norway in 1887. The present study has been based as far as possible on primary sources such as protocols, letters, legal documents, and articles in journals, magazines, and newspapers from the nineteenth century. A contextual-comparative approach was employed to evaluate the objectivity of a given source. Secondary sources have also been consulted for interpretation and as corroborating evidence, especially when no primary sources were available. The study concludes that the Pietist revival ignited by the Norwegian Lutheran lay preacher, Hans Nielsen Hauge (1771-1824), represented the culmination of the sixteenth- century Reformation in Norway, and the forerunner of the Adventist movement in that country.

  • On the Brink of Revolution
    On the brink of revolution. The revolutionary events of 1848 in Sweden and The Netherlands. Fjodor Vervloet - 3136094 [email protected] Onderzoekseminar III Revolutions L. Behrisch 21 July 2014 9.380 Words Index Chapter 1 – A historical non-event 2 Chapter 2 – On the Brink 7 2.1 Causes for Revolution 2.2 The Netherlands 9 2.3 Sweden 12 Chapter 3 – Critical decision making 15 3.1 Reactions by European leadership 3.2 King Willem II 17 3.3 King Oscar I 20 Chapter 4 – Preventing Revolution 24 Literature 28 1 Chapter 1 – A historical non-event At the moment of writing, violence is bursting in the Ukraine. This may or may not be referred to as a revolution in the future. The recent so-called Arab spring of 2011 is seen as a revolution in the Middle East and Northern Africa, and is compared to the Spring of Nations of 1848. In the newsfeeds concerning these events, one country has triggered my attention. In Morocco, demonstrations started. After the king decided on constitutional changes, the worst discontent seemed to have died down. This situation seems to be comparable to the constitutional changes in the Netherlands in 1848, or the calm in Sweden countries, which seem to have remained largely unaffected by the revolutionary wave in Europe. The question raised by this is: How was it possible that some nations were able to stay clear of the revolution that was going on around them? The revolution of 1848 was a special revolution in many cases. Unlike other revolutions it was preceded by a period of, mainly internal, unrest.

[2] [_]ence in Lima. Friday, 21st of January 1876. I was up at an early hour, and in the water by half past seven. My wife was so well that she called her sudden improvement a real miracle. Before I left by the 9 train Garland and Enriqueta had arrived. By 3 O’clock I was at the meeting of the Directors of the Insurance Company “Lima”. Moscoso Melgar presided. The gerente Elizalde asked what was to be done with pagarées of various people which would shortly fall due. Peña said, “Get the money”; I replied, “That is more easily said than done, and after some talking we came to the natural conclusion to authorize the gerente to do the best he could in conjunction with the Director de Turno. Moscoso Melgar was chosen President, Michael Carrol Vice. Before we had risen I was called to the Banco de Lima. Lembcke presented himself, and laid before us the closing entries in the books, which could not be made without the authorization of the Directory. Several decidedly bad debts were written off to Profit and Loss account, to the debit of which account were likewise carried heavy sums for premiums paid and commissions charged by the London Bankers, and for charges – in Spanish “Gastos Generales” – not less a sum than S/59,000 of which more than S/10,000 for patente and stamp duty, and S/9600 to the two gerentes.

  • And Imprisonment for Debt in Sweden: from the Lost Chances of a Ruined Life to the Lost Capital of a Bankrupt Company∗
    Default and Imprisonment for Debt in Sweden: From the Lost Chances of a Ruined Life to the ∗ Lost Capital of a Bankrupt Company Karl Gratzer Although borrowing and lending have been important themes in Swedish economic history research, the special subject of the insolvent debtor has received no systematic attention. The history of credit is as long as human history and predates the use of money. It has been argued that money was introduced because of the need to measure and pay debts (Kilpi 1998). The word credit itself is derived from the Latin word credere, to believe, to put confidence in someone, to trust someone. Credit stands for a person’s ability (the trust one person possesses) to sell a promise to repay in the future so that he or she can make purchases in the present. To give credit means to transfer the property rights to a given object (e.g., an amount of money) in exchange for a claim on specified objects (e.g., certain sums of money) at specified points in time in the future. To take credit, to become a debtor, is the other side of the coin (Conant 1899, Baltensperger 1987). When a person applies for credit, lends money, etc., he or she enters into some form of contractual arrangement.1 These contracts can be verbal or written. All credit transactions involve the risk that the debtor may fail to honor his or her financial obligation. If the repayment is not made, the debtor is declared to be in default. By not delivering those property rights as prom- ised, the debtor violates one of the most fundamental contracts of the econ- omy (Stiefel 2005).

  • The Church of Sweden in Continuous Reformation
    Journal of the European Society of Women in Theological Research 25 (2017) 67-80. doi: 10.2143/ESWTR.25.0.3251305 ©2017 by Journal of the European Society of Women in Theological Research. All rights reserved. Ninna Edgardh Embracing the Future: The Church of Sweden in Continuous Reformation The whole world followed the events in Lund, Sweden, on October 31, 2016, when for the first time a joint ecumenical commemoration of the Reformation took place between the Lutheran World Federation (LWF) and the Roman-Catholic Church. A photo distributed worldwide shows Pope Francis and the Archbishop of the Church of Sweden, Antje Jackelén, embracing each other. The photo contains both hope and tension. The Church of Sweden tries to balance the tension between its heritage as ecumenical bridge-builder, launched already by Archbishop Nathan Söderblom a hundred years ago, and its pioneering role with regard to issues of gen- der and sexuality. These seemingly contradictory roles are hereby set into the wider context of the journey Sweden has made from the time of the Lutheran reformation up to the present. A uniform society characterised by one people and one Christian faith, has gradually transformed into a society where faith is a voluntary option. The former state church faces new demands in handling religious as well as cultural diversities. Leadership is increasingly equally shared between women and men. The Church of Sweden holds all these tensions together through the approach launched on the official website of a church in constant need of reform. Por primera vez la Federación Luterana Mundial y la Iglesia Católica Romana celebraron conjuntamente una conmemoración ecuménica de la Reforma un hecho que ocurrió en Lund, Suecia, el 31 de octubre de 2016 y que fue ampliamente difundido por el mundo, a través de una fotografía distribuida globalmente donde aparecen abrazándose el Papa Francisco de la Iglesia Católica y la arzobispa Antje Jackelén de la iglesia de Suecia, reflejando esperanza y tensión a la vez.

Isabella Kasselstrand 3 4 Abstract Secularisation is at the centre of a vibrant debate in the sociology of religion. In the last two decades, literature has started to challenge old predictions and interpretations of the future of religion, but few studies present a detailed contextual examination of religious change in contemporary societies. Offering a comparative analysis of Scotland and Sweden, two nations in the relatively secularised Northern Europe, this thesis argues that diverse historical and political trajectories shape distinct patterns of religious beliefs and practices.

  • How the Church Built the Swedish Model
    The Preferability of Consensus: How the Church Built the Swedish Model A European Case Study ANDERS BROGREN From heathendom to Christianity “A.D. 793. This year came dreadful fore-warnings over the of land the Northumbrians, terrifying the people most woefully: these were immense sheets of light rushing through the air, and whirlwinds, and fiery dragons flying across the firmament. These tremendous tokens were soon followed by a great famine: and not long after, on the sixth day before the ides of January in the same year, the harrowing inroads of heathen men made lamentable havoc in the church of God in Holy-island, by rapine and slaughter.” This entry from A.D. 793 in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle describes one of the first encounters between the Christian church and the Nordic peoples. It was not a happy one. The Vikings came as invaders from the sea. They were robbers on plundering expeditions. Soon they took power over England and Ireland. They extended their ravaging expeditions to France and even to the Mediterranean. However, the gospel was preached in the domain that was later named the Kingdom of Sweden by Ansgar (who was eventually made archbishop of Hamburg-Bremen). He was sent to Scandinavia by the emperor Louis the Pious, son of Charlemagne, around 830, and a second time around 850. Ansgar celebrated the mass amidst foreigners living in the small town of Birka, not far from today’s Stockholm. He preached the gospel and founded a small congregation. Sadly, it faded away after a few decades. Of far greater importance for the process of christianisation was the Viking emigration to the British Isles.
