G. White books in the spoken word. This opens up a whole new field of reading as the physician, minister, or businessman may use his travel time in "reading" and "rereading" the E. G. White books. The busy housewife, too, may "read" and "reread" those messages of counsel which mean so much to the home and the welfare of the family. Through this means the invalid may hear the precious, assuring Spirit of Prophecy messages.

This book documents the development of the creationist movement in the face of the growing tide of evolution. The bulk of the collection dates from the 20th century and covers most of the prominent, individual creationists and pro-creation groups of the late 19th and 20th century primarily in the United States, and secondarily, those in England, Australia, and Canada. Among the types of records included are photocopies of articles and other publications, theses, interview tapes and transcripts, and official publications of various denominations. One of the more valuable contributions of this collection is the large quantity of correspondence of prominent individuals. These records are all photocopies. A large section contains documentation related to Seventh-day Adventist creationists. Adventists were some of the leading figures in the creationist movement, and foremost among this group is George McCready Price. The Adventist Heritage Center holds a Price collection. The Numbers collection contributes additional correspondence and other documentation related to Price. Arrangement Ron Numbers organized this collection for the purpose of preparing his book manuscript, though the book itself is not organized in this way. Dr. Numbers suggested his original arrangement be retained. While the collection is arranged in its original order, the outline that follows may be of help to some researchers.

He is widely published in literature dealing with ornithology, behavioral ecology, and paleontology, and has contributed numerous articles to Adventist publications.

Clifford Leslie Burdick, a Seventh-day Adventist consulting geologist, was an outspoken defender of young earth creationism and involved in the search for Noah’s Ark. Many of his claims were sensationalist and later discredited. Early Life and Education Born in 1894, Burdick was a graduate of the Seventh Day Baptist Milton College of Wisconsin. After accepting the Seventh-day Adventist message, Burdick enrolled at Emmanuel Missionary College (EMC, now Andrews University) in hopes of becoming a missionary. There he met the prominent creationist George McCready Price who inspired Burdick’s Clifford Leslie Burdick. interest in “Flood geology.”1 From Youth's Instructor, July 11, 1967 In 1922 Burdick submitted a thesis to EMC entitled “The Sabbath: Its Development in America,” which he later claimed earned him a Master of Arts degree in theology. Records show, however, that he never received a degree at EMC. He also claimed to have received a master’s degree in geology from the University of Wisconsin. Although he did complete several courses in geology there, he failed his oral exams and thus was denied a degree.2 During the 1950s Burdick took courses in geology and paleontology at the University of Arizona with plans to earn a PhD.

McIver Avondale University College Introduction The doctrine of Creation has always been of great importance to Seventh-day Adventists (SDAs), probably because of its connection to one of their crucial distinguishing beliefs—the seventh-day Sabbath (Ex. 20:8–11). For example, as he contemplates “Seven reasons why it really does matter what we believe about Creation”, Greg King states, The seventh reason why it matters what we believe about Creation is the Sabbath.

  • George Mccready-Price
    George McCready Price—teacher, scientist, author, philosopher. Price's career covers more than half a century, and the influence of his writings and lectures during that time can scarcely be estimated. He was born in New Brunswick, Canada, August 26, 1870. He held professorships at Loma Linda University, Pacific Union College, Union College, Stanborough College, and Emmanuel Missionary College (now Andrews University). The thousands of young minds whose philosophies he helped to shape will stand in living memory to his beliefs and ideals. Contents Preface 11 One Eschatology 15 Two Beasts as Prophetic Symbols 23 Three The Seven Heads 37 Four Two Horns Like a Lamb 50 Five The Deadly Wound 63 Six The False Prophet 77 Seven Babylon the Great 99 Eight The Badge of Loyalty 111 Nine The Gospel of the Kingdom 124 Ten Surviving the Centuries 138 Eleven The Monster From the Abyss 147 Twelve Armageddon 159 FORWARD While the primary purpose of prophecy is not that of enabling the church to predict in detail events yet to come, yet a day must come in which all vital prophecies pertaining to “last things” will be understood. Indeed, if the prophetic Word is to be “a light that shineth in a dark place,” then the light must shine both upon and from that Word before the end. In a special way Seventh-day Adventists are a people of prophecy. They have been called into existence by prophecy, and their safe path to the eternal kingdom will be illumined by prophecy. Thus it is right and fitting that periodical attempts at prophetic exposition be undertaken by Bible students within the “remnant church.” Especially challenging may be the insights of one whose life has spanned the greater part of a century, as has that of the author of this study, George McCready Price.

ABSTRACT THE HISTORY OF THE ADVENTIST INTERPRETATION OF THE “DAILY” IN THE BOOK OF DANIEL FROM 1831 TO 2008 by Denis Kaiser Adviser: Denis Fortin ABSTRACT OF GRADUATE STUDENT RESEARCH Thesis Andrews University Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary Title: THE HISTORY OF THE ADVENTIST INTERPRETATION OF THE “DAILY” IN THE BOOK OF DANIEL FROM 1831 TO 2008 Name of the researcher: Denis Kaiser Name and degree of faculty adviser: Denis Fortin, Ph.D. Date completed: July 2009 During the more than 160 years since Adventism’s inception, the interpretation of the WƗPîd or “daily” in the book of Daniel underwent several changes with respect to the identification of the term itself, the employed methodology, and the style of argumentation, as well as the way differing views are handled. This study analyzes various Millerite and Adventist interpretations of the WƗPîd in Dan 8 between 1831 and 2008, focusing especially on the approach to the biblical text, the argumentation, and the atmosphere during the time of conflict (1900 – 1930), as well as on Ellen White’s counsels during that period, her puzzling statement, and possible explanations.
