Register of the Edward Heppenstall Papers Collection 190 Adventist Heritage Center James White Library Andrews University Berrien Springs, Michigan 49104-1400 February 1999 Edward Heppenstall Papers (Collection 190) Scope and Content: Edward Heppenstall was born in 1901 at Rotherham, Yorkshire, England. He earned an BA degree at Emmanuel Missionary College, a master’s degree from the University of Michigan, and a PhD from the University of Southern California in 1951. He pastored several churches, served as youth director for the Michigan Conference, and taught at La Sierra College (1940-1955), SDA Theological Seminary and Andrews University (1955-1966), and Loma Linda University (1966-1976). He wrote several books including In Touch With God, The Man Who Is God, Our High Priest, Perfection, and Salvation Unlimited. Additionally, many articles are attributed to him. He is best known for his work on the atonement, righteousness by faith, and the nature of Christ. Heppenstall was one of the leading theologians in the Seventh-day Adventist Church during the later middle years of the 20th century. He died in 1994. The Edward Heppenstall Papers cover a wide range of topics reflective of the teaching and study interests of the man. Some of the larger topic areas include: atonement, Daniel, righteousness, salvation, sanctuary, law, philosophy, preaching, and Revelation. The material includes correspondence, lecture notes, class materials, clippings, and other such types of records. While the amount of correspondence is somewhat disappointing, there are still files of correspondence with Desmond Ford, Louis Venden, George D. Keough, Robert Brinsmead, and J. S. Washburn, plus many letters in less significant amounts. Arrangement The collection has two parts. The first, consisting of two boxes, is more personal in nature. The second part, consisting of 89 boxes, is topical in arrangement. The arrangement is alphabetical. The papers were not in any order when they arrived at the archives. In processing, like titles were put together. Through combining similar folder titles we eliminated many repetitive folders. Very little rearranging of folder contents took place. There are many folders for some of the topic areas. These have a subheading to differentiate them from others of the same general topic. This is clearly seen on the following inventory pages. Heppenstall Papers–page 2 Provenance Following the death of Edward and his wife, their children donated this collection to the Andrews University Adventist Heritage Center. This occurred in 1996. Along with the papers were four boxes of books from Heppenstall’s personal library. The family retained the bulk of the library.
