Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book deals with the origins and history of anti-Catholicism among Seventh-day Adventists in North America. These anti-Catholic sentiments were rooted in the history of nineteenth century America, as well as in Adventist interpretation of particular apocalyptic passages in the Bible. Building on historicist prophetic interpretations, Adventists developed an end-time scenario in which Catholics were expected to play an increasingly sinister role. This book chronicles in detail the flow of this turbulent relationship, from the emergence of Adventism down to the present day. It will be of interest to all those interested in the fields of Seventh-day Adventist history, American religious history, ecumenics, and Roman Catholic history in the United States"--

Book The A to Z of the Seventh Day Adventists

Download or read book The A to Z of the Seventh Day Adventists written by Gary Land and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2009-07-16 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Covering the Millerite movement of the 1830s and 1840s, sabbatarian Adventism prior to organization of the denomination, and the Seventh-day Adventist Church since its organization in 1861-63, this volume provides a comprehensive history of the denomination. The first major element of the book is a chronology of Adventist history that begins with William Miller's conclusion in 1818 that the Second Advent of Jesus would occur about 1843 and extends through the Science and Theology Conferences of 2002-04. The interpretive introduction that follows places the emergence of Adventism within the context of the Second Great Awakening, describes the development of sabbatarian Adventism from its early opposition to church organization to its highly institutionalized and bureaucratically structured contemporary form, and examines the denomination's geographical expansion from a small North American sect to a global church. The dictionary entries that constitute the bulk of the volume address individuals, organizations, institutions, and doctrines that have been important in the history of the church, including dissident movements and individuals who have emerged as critics of the denomination and its beliefs. Second, there are entries on the development and current situation of Adventism in many individual countries. Finally, thematic entries on such subjects as art, music, literature, health care, and women address other elements important to understanding church life. The dictionary entries are followed by a bibliography of scholarly and popular works published by the denomination, commercial and academic presses, and individuals and organizations.

Book Towards an Adventist Version of Communio Ecclesiology

Download or read book Towards an Adventist Version of Communio Ecclesiology written by Tihomir Lazić and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-13 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how Seventh-day Adventists, like other Christians, can benefit from generating their own version of communio ecclesiology. It starts by offering a critical analysis of the status quo of the existing Adventist portrayal of church as remnant, and suggests potential ways of moving this tradition forward. To articulate a more rounded and comprehensive vision of the church’s rich and multifaceted relational nature, this book draws on the mainstream Christian koinonia-based framework. Consequently, it provides possible solutions to some of the most divisive ecclesial issues that Christian communities face today regarding church structure, ministry, mission, communal interpretation, and reform. As it sets on a new footing the conversation between Adventism and other mainstream Christian traditions, the methodology of this book serves as a pathway for any Christian community to use when revisiting and enhancing its own current theologies of the church.

Book Adventist Interchurch Relations

Download or read book Adventist Interchurch Relations written by Stefan Höschele and published by V&R Unipress. This book was released on 2022-09-05 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study presents the first comprehensive analysis of Seventhday Adventist interchurch relations – a 20-million member body whose ecumenical stance has so far been underresearched. For the sake of interpreting denominational involvement and reservations in Adventism as well as beyond, the study develops a new academic approach to ecumenism based on Relational Models Theory, a comprehensive social science paradigm of interpreting human relationships. The resulting typology of ecumenical interactions and the historical case study of Adventism suggest that such a relational interpretation of ecumenical interaction sheds light on many of the unresolved issues in ecumenics – such as divergent concepts of unity, difficulties in recognition processes, and the permanence of denominationalism.

Book Will the Real Seventh Day Adventist Stand Up

Download or read book Will the Real Seventh Day Adventist Stand Up written by Enrique R Ramos and published by . This book was released on 2021-04-04 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Enrique Ramos asks the question whether the differences of opinion between Traditional-Historical and Evangelical Adventists on the gospel of righteousness by faith can be easily resolved. In this quest he focusses on the role and beliefs of their prophetess and co-founder, Ellen Gould Harmon White (Ellen G. White) (1827-1915), and her pivotal role in this discussion. Seventh-day Adventism is a Christian denomination that claims to be Protestant and has, historically, opposed the Roman Catholic Church as being antichrist." - Ms. Gillian Ford

Book Ellen G  White  Co founder of the Seventh day Adventist Church

This book was released on 1985 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seventh-day Adventism is inextricably linked with the life and ministry of Ellen G. White. This study examines her role in the church both in her lifetime and, since her death in 1915, through her voluminous writings. The passage of time and the general ecumenical climate of today make possible a more dispassionate study of White's work and insights, which hold value for the whole Christian Church, especially in the eschatological emphasis which lies at the center of her work.
