  • Brownsberger, Sidney (1845–1930)
    Brownsberger, Sidney (1845–1930) MICHAEL CAMPBELL Michael Campbell Sidney Brownsberger was an Adventist educator and administrator. He played a significant role during the early development of Battle Creek College (Andrews University) and Healdsburg College (Pacific Union College). He was considered a “pioneer” in the development of Adventist education.1 Early Life, Marriage, and Family Sidney Brownsberger was the youngest of eight children born to John and Barbara Brownsberger. The family migrated westward from Pennsylvania to Ohio where Sidney was born September 20, 1845.2 He completed his early studies at Baldwin University in 1865 and then went on to graduate with a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Michigan. While he was a student in Ann Arbor, he heard about Seventh- day Adventist beliefs from another young man who was not himself an Adventist. Brownsberger contacted the denomination and requested literature. When he received Adventist literature, he was challenged to study the Bible carefully.3 Without so much as a single Bible study, he started keeping the seventh-day Sabbath in 1868 during his junior year. Upon Sidney Brownsberger graduation he served as superintendent of schools in Photo courtesy of Center for Adventist Research. Maumee, Ohio and then Delta, Ohio.4 In 1873 church leaders invited Brownsberger to come church headquarters to lead the nascent Battle Creek College. It was hoped that with his educational background he could provide more “opportunity for the study of the languages, and other high branches.”5 During that first year (1873-1874) he served for one term as secretary of the General Conference.

    MOVEMENT OF DESTINY / fy- ,40) Gt) Ir ' a IEW AND HERALD PUB. ASSN. Adventism in Complete Conspectus Mediating Before Judgment Bar of God.—Of all the sublime themes portrayed by Adventist Artist Harry Anderson, none is more lofty and meaningful than the frontispiece appearing op- posite this page. It depicts Christ—our ineffable Mediator-Priest— pleading our cases before the Judgment Seat of God. And this in the innermost sanctum of the sacred Command Center of all re- demptive activity, positioned in the heavenly Sanctuary above. Applies Benefits of His Atonement.—The Atoning Act of the Cross having been completed on Calvary—where Christ offered Himself as the "Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world"—He now ministers the benefits of that unutterably sacred transaction. Time and Circumstance Established.—Christ stands with nail- scarred hands before the Mercy Seat, overspreading the transcend- ent law of God. Covering cherubim gaze with ceaseless wonder at the infinite love graven forever in those sin-wrought scars. Christ's very position and solemn activity identify the time and circum- stance—today, in God's great Judgment Hour. Embraces Complete System of Truth.—But there is vastly more. That last judgment scene depicts the central, all-embracing truth of Adventism. Within it is compassed a complete system of truth— every phase of Present Truth. It forms the very foundation of our faith, the center and circumference of every saving principle and provision. Righteousness by Faith at Its Highest.—Here Righteousness by Faith centers in and emanates from Christ as "all the fulness of the Godhead bodily." Here the outreach of believing faith, as a sweet-smelling savor, rises from earth below to the throne of God in heaven above.

Schwarz Prepared by the Depai iment of Education General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists PACIFIC PRESS PUBLISHING ASSOCIATION Mountain. View, California Omaha, Nebraska Oshawa, Ontario 1919 Copyright © 1979 by Pacific Press Publishing Association Litho in United States of America All Rights Reserved Design by Ichiro Nakashima Library of Congress Catalog Card No. 78-70730 FOREWORD Seventh-day Adventists must never forget the precious heritage that is ours. The message we refer to affectionately as the "Three Angels' Mes- sages," or simply as "the truth," has come to us as a legacy of long hours and days of prayer and study by men and women of God. The organization of our church is not the result of happenstance—God used men and women of commitment and ability to design the church structure that has served so effectively through the years. Light bearers these men and women were, indeed. They were God-led, God-blessed light bearers— light bearers who bore the torch gloriously through the years. We pause a moment to honor their memory—to pay tribute to all who were used of God to accomplish so much for the cause of present truth. The Seventh-day Adventist Church is not in the world today only as another ecclesiastical organization. The advent movement was heaven- born. It has been heaven-blessed through the decades of its existence and, thank God, it is heaven-bound. The message that has made us a people is a Christ-centered, Bible-based message.

  • Bell, Goodloe Harper (1832–1899)
    Bell, Goodloe Harper (1832–1899) MICHAEL CAMPBELL Michael Campbell As the founding teacher of the denomination’s first official sponsored school, Goodloe Harper Bell is considered by some historians as the “founder” of the educational work of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.1 Despite earlier attempts, Bell founded the first permanent Adventist school in Battle Creek, Michigan. His efforts also included educational administration, serving as an author and editor (including numerous textbooks), and an active promoter of the Sabbath School. He was remembered by Drury R. Davis as a quiet and unassuming person who was “the least appreciated man” of the early Adventist pioneers.2 Early Life and Family Goodloe Harper Bell’s family came from New England and migrated westward. He was the oldest of ten children born to David and Lucy Ann (née Blodgett) Bell in Watertown, New York, on April 7, 1832. His father was originally from Vermont, and his mother from Massachusetts.3 He moved west with his family, settling in Ottawa County, Michigan. Here he farmed and worked as a teacher and inspector of the schools in the counties around Grand Rapids from 1854 through the 1860s. At one point Bell studied at the reform minded Oberlin College. In his early years he was a Baptist and later became a Disciple.4 Goodloe Harper Bell Olsen Family Photograph Album, University Libraries, Loma Linda At age 19 he taught at a small country school where he University, accessed December 18, 2020. met Catherine Mary Stuart5 (1836-1866) who he married at age 21.

  • California Conference
    Image not found or type unknown California Conference RAYMOND D. TETZ Raymond D. Tetz has served as director of Communication and Community Engagement for the Pacific Union Conference since 2015. He served as vice president for strategic communication and corporate development at the Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA) from 1986 to 1995. For two decades, he successfully operated a consulting and media production company that served dozens of Adventist organizations and ministries. Tetz began his ministry in the Southern California Conference, initially serving as a pastor, Bible teacher, and youth director. The California Conference was a unit of church organization that initially comprised the state of California. In later organizational rearrangements it also included at times Nevada, Utah, and Arizona. It was active from 1869 to 1932. Four conferences now cover the state of California: Northern, Central, Southeastern, and Southern, and these conferences are treated in separate articles. This article deals with the beginnings of the Adventist work in California and developments in the history of the California Conference until it was dissolved in 1932. Origins The earliest evidence of a Seventh-day Adventist presence in California comes in two letters from Daniel Eaton published in the Review and Herald in 1855. Eaton, located in Yreka, Siskiyou County in the northernmost part of the state, just south of the Oregon border, wrote that he did not have “the privilege of meeting with those of like precious faith.”1 In 1859 Merritt G. Kellogg, stepbrother of John Harvey Kellogg, traveled overland to California by wagon with his wife and children, settling in San Francisco.
