Singing together brought emotional support and a vital sense of unity. 3 ngs were first pub I ished in the Signs of the Times and the Midnight Cry. These were collected into song books which were culated widely. The preface and first number in the 1843 edition of the Millennia/ Harp show an underlying tension between certl.inty expectation and uncertainty in waiting, a prevailing tension throughout the centuries among advent believers. Expectation of ir Lord 's return prompted their haste in publishing the Millennia/ Harp, yet His coming seemed long overdue. With wond~ring dismay ey looked at their troubled world. Why hadn't He come already? BOARD of EDITORS Looking toward the world's end Advent­ ists have not always given the attention to their history that it deserves. Yet his­ tory is important, even for an apocalyptic group, for it contributes to self-identity. And even a cursory examination of Ronald L. Numbers Adventism's relatively short history re­ veals that it is a rich and interesting one indeed. Beginning with this issue, Adventist Heritage seeks to nourish an interest in Adventist history. While we want to adhere to the highest standards of histori­ cal scholarship, we also desire to appeal to the general reader. Our history is too important to be confined to Adventist his­ torians alone. The articles, pictures, and reviews iru Gary G. Land this issue illustrate something of what we, wish to achieve. Spanning in time from the early period of Adventism until well into the twentieth century, and covering both Seventh-day and other Adventist groups, they indicate the length and breadth of Adventist history. Our authors include professional historians and free­ lance writers, Adventists and non­ Adventists. Although the validity of history as a Jonathan M. Butler subject worthy of study is under attack generally, Adventist Heritage appears at a time when interest in Adventist history seems to be increasing.

Key Text - Ephesians 2:19-22 Introduction - Before going on to a study of the history of the Church of God, its doctrines, its personages, publications, churches, and conferences, let us consider the question, “What is the Church of God?" Our answers may have a bearing on its history. I - A Definition of the Church A. "Church, ekklesia, the common term for a meeting of the ekkletoi (those summoned) to discuss the affairs of a Free State, the body of citizens summoned together by a herald. The LXX transfers the term to the assembly of ‘the people of Israel,' whether summoned or meeting for a definite purpose (1 Kings 8:65), or considered as the representative of the entire nation. In the N.T. it denotes the redeemed community in its two-fold aspect. (1.) The entire community of all who are called by and to Christ out of the world, the Church universal, (2.) every Church in which the character of the Church as a whole is seen in miniature. The summoning is expressed by the latter part of the word, and out of by the first part...." -- Bullinger's Lexicon. II - The Church of God in its Twofold Aspect A. The church universal. 1.

    Gage, William Claggett (1842–1907) BRIAN E. STRAYER Brian E. Strayer, Ph.D. (University of Iowa). Strayer taught history at Jackson (MI) Junior Academy, the University of Iowa, Southern Adventist University, and Andrews University for 41 years. He has written 10 books, 120 scholarly and professional articles, 40 reviews and critiques in French and Adventist history and directed three Adventist heritage tours of New England. He writes a weekly column (“The Past Is Always Present”) in the Journal Era and shares Adventist history at camp meetings, schools, and churches. William Claggett Gage was a publisher, preacher, health reformer, and the first Adventist elected mayor of a city. Early Life William Claggett Gage was born October 1, 1842 in Massachusetts to Caleb and Susan C. Gage, as the youngest of four children, three older ones being: Melindia C. (b. 1832), Leander (b. 1834), and George F. (b. 1839). Sometime before 1850 the family moved to Manchester, Hillsborough County, New Hampshire.

  • The Origins of Millerite Separatism
    The Origins of Millerite Separatism By Andrew Taylor (BA in History, Aurora University and MA in History, University of Rhode Island) CHAPTER 1 HISTORIANS AND MILLERITE SEPARATISM ===================================== Early in 1841, Truman Hendryx moved to Bradford, Pennsylvania, where he quickly grew alienated from his local church. Upon settling down in his new home, Hendryx attended several services in his new community’s Baptist church. After only a handful of visits, though, he became convinced that the church did not believe in what he referred to as “Bible religion.” Its “impiety” led him to lament, “I sometimes almost feel to use the language [of] the Prophecy ‘Lord, they have killed thy prophets and digged [sic] down thine [sic] altars and I only am left alone and they seek my life.”’1 His opposition to the church left him isolated in his community, but his fear of “degeneracy in the churches and ministers” was greater than his loneliness. Self-righteously believing that his beliefs were the “Bible truth,” he resolved to remain apart from the Baptist church rather than attend and be corrupted by its “sinful” influence.2 The “sinful” church from which Hendryx separated himself was characteristic of mainstream antebellum evangelicalism. The tumultuous first decades of the nineteenth century had transformed the theological and institutional foundations of mainstream American Protestantism. During the colonial era, American Protestantism had been dominated by the Congregational, Presbyterian, and Anglican churches, which, for the most part, had remained committed to the theology of John Calvin. In Calvinism, God was envisioned as all-powerful, having predetermined both the course of history and the eternal destiny of all humans.

White Estate —Because “remembering” is es- sential to the Seventh-day Adventist Church, the words and works of the Adventist pioneers need to be given prominence. We are pleased with the skillful, professional efforts put forth to accom- plish this by the Pioneer Library officers and staff. Through books, periodicals and CD-ROM, the messages of the pioneers are being heard, and their influence felt. We trust that the work of the Adventist Pioneer Library will increase and strengthen as earth’s final crisis approaches. C. Mervyn Maxwell, (former) Professor of Church History, SDA Theological Semi- nary —I certainly appreciate the remarkable contribution you are making to Adventist stud- ies, and I hope you are reaching a wide market.... Please do keep up the good work, and may God prosper you. James R. Nix, (former) Vice Director, Ellen G. White Estate —The service that you and the others associated with the Adventist Pioneer Library project are providing our church is incalculable To think about so many of the early publications of our pioneers being available on one small disc would have been unthinkable just a few years ago. I spent years collecting shelves full of books in the Heritage Room at Loma Linda University just to equal what is on this one CD-ROM.

  • Origin and History of Seventh-Day Adventists, Vol. 1
    Origin and History of Seventh-day Adventists FRONTISPIECE PAINTING BY HARRY ANDERSON © 1949, BY REVIEW AND HERALD As the disciples watched their Master slowly disappear into heaven, they were solemnly reminded of His promise to come again, and of His commission to herald this good news to all the world. Origin and History of Seventh-day Adventists VOLUME ONE by Arthur Whitefield Spalding REVIEW AND HERALD PUBLISHING ASSOCIATION WASHINGTON, D.C. COPYRIGHT © 1961 BY THE REVIEW AND HERALD PUBLISHING ASSOCIATION WASHINGTON, D.C. OFFSET IN THE U.S.A. AUTHOR'S FOREWORD TO FIRST EDITION THIS history, frankly, is written for "believers." The reader is assumed to have not only an interest but a communion. A writer on the history of any cause or group should have suffi- cient objectivity to relate his subject to its environment with- out distortion; but if he is to give life to it, he must be a con- frere. The general public, standing afar off, may desire more detachment in its author; but if it gets this, it gets it at the expense of vision, warmth, and life. There can be, indeed, no absolute objectivity in an expository historian. The painter and interpreter of any great movement must be in sympathy with the spirit and aim of that movement; it must be his cause. What he loses in equipoise he gains in momentum, and bal- ance is more a matter of drive than of teetering. This history of Seventh-day Adventists is written by one who is an Adventist, who believes in the message and mission of Adventists, and who would have everyone to be an Advent- ist.

  • A Canonical Reading of Hebrews 3:7-4:13" (David E. Garland)
    BOOKREVIEWS 28 1 Promise of Rest: A Canonical Reading of Hebrews 3:7-4:13" (David E. Garland). Dockery affirms a sound typological interpretation. Citing texts from John 5:39- 40 and John 5:46, he demonstrates how Jesus understood the OT as referring to himself and saw himself as the antitype of individuals like David, Solomon, Elijah, and others (162-163). While parts 1 and 2 are primarily concerned with methodological issues, part 3 (225-315) concentrates on practical ways of applying the OT to modern culture and the church. In "Preaching the Present Tense: Coming Alive to the Old Testament," Al Fasol focuses on the important homiletical issues involved in preaching the OT. He recommends that the theme text of the sermon be summarized with a brief, interpretive, past-tense statement. This sentence should reflect the Eternal Truth of the Text (E.T.T.). This is to be followed by a present-tense sentence of application which communicates the Truth for Today (T.T.). While Klein offers this suggestion with the intent of making the text applicable, it seems to be a reflection of Stendahl's much-debated dichotomy between "what it meant" and "what it meansn-a dichotomy that has been challenged in some recent discussions. The chapters on "Changing the Church with the Words of God" (C. Richard Wells); "Changing Culture with Words from Godn (James Emery White); and "Where Do We Go from Here?: Integrating the Old Testament into Your Ministry" (Kenneth S. Hempell) represent a clear attempt to relate the OT to church and society.

  • A Watershed Doctrine for the Age to Come Believers and the Millerites1
    A WATERSHED DOCTRINE FOR THE AGE TO COME BELIEVERS AND THE MILLERITES1 ARLEN F. RANKIN, B.TH. As we approach this study we emphasize that it is merely a preliminary study of the issues at hand — historically and theologically. It is put forward as a challenge to dig deeper in these areas to increase our understanding both of our past and our present. As my research has broadened, former opinions as to “what was” have likewise broadened and changed. As we analyze both the period writings on biblical matters and the historical developments we see interesting and critical interpretive principles and practices. A Watershed There was a hermeneutical and therefore theological watershed which became apparent and separative in the thirty years between 1850 and 1880 within the Millerite movement. Doctrinal forces were stirring both within and around the Millerite camp. The early thinkers and writers of the Church of God were at the core of the discussions in those years. The advancement of the age-to-come doctrine as well as the earlier literalist teachings promoted the millennial restoration of the literal nation of Israel and with it the concept of a probation of living mortals and the progression of “the times of restitution of all things spoken by the mouth of all the holy prophets since the world began” (Acts 3:21). Julia Neuffer writes about the “Age-to-Come Controversy”: Where did the age-to-come doctrine of the 1850s come from? Possibly it stemmed chiefly from the British Literalist publications that had been circulated among the Millerites.
