Book The Seventh day Men

Download or read book The Seventh day Men written by Bryan W. Ball and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Seventh-Day Men" was the seventeenth-century name given to an emerging and important body of Christians who believed in the strict observance of Saturday, rather than Sunday, as the Sabbath. This is the first-ever fully documented study of these people, who in their heyday were at the center of debate and controversy among the leading writers of the age. This study provides clear evidence that this sabbatarian body of Christians was far more extensive than has so far been recognized, and establishes its considerable significance within the history of the church in the period.

Book John Clarke and His Legacies

Download or read book John Clarke and His Legacies written by Sydney James and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Clarke and His Legacies is the first full-length biography of John Clarke (1609&–76), a principal founder of colonial Rhode Island. Although Roger Williams usually gets most of the attention, Sydney James shows that Clarke made a lasting contribution to the colony&—perhaps more so than Williams. Williams was the first Baptist minister in America, but he left his church after a very short time. And although Williams won the first charter for Rhode Island, the charter soon had to be replaced. Clarke, however, founded the first Baptist church in Newport, where he continued to contribute to the Baptist community. And in 1663 he procured the royal charter that would remain the foundation of government in Rhode Island until 1842. This inquiry into Clarke's life engages a variety of intriguing topics. It surveys a formative stage in American Baptist history, one that spurned dependency upon government more thoroughly than any part of the United States does today. Through the experience of Clark, we see pioneering American religious volunteerism, problems of church-state relations, and the peculiar nature of colonial relations with the parent country.

Book Friends of Religious Equality

Download or read book Friends of Religious Equality written by Timothy Larsen and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2008-02-01 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the middle decades of the nineteenth century the English Nonconformist community developed a coherent political philosophy of its own, of which a central tenet was the principle of religious equality (in contrast to the stereotype of Evangelical Dissenters). The Dissenting community fought for the civil rights of Roman Catholics, non-Christians, and even atheists, on an issue of principle that had its flowering in the enthusiastic and undivided support that Nonconformity gave to the campaign for Jewish emancipation. This study examines the political efforts and ideas of English Nonconformists during the period, covering the whole range of national issues raised, from state education to the Crimean War. It offers a case study of a theologically conservative group defending religious pluralism in the civic sphere, showing the that concept of religious equality was a grand vision at the center of the political philosophy of the Dissenters.

Book The Sabbath  Aaron to Zohar

Download or read book The Sabbath Aaron to Zohar written by Norman McClelland and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2021-10-30 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book not only argues for the sanctity of the seventh-day Sabbath. It is this author’s view that Christians have ample justification for observing Sunday as a holy day, but not to claim that it has the same blessed and made holy power to it that the seventh-day Sabbath has. Moreover, it is here pointed out that even the Quran, if read carefully, can support the seventh-day Sabbath.

Book Christians or Jews

    Book Details:
  • Author : Réka Tímea Újlaki-Nagy
  • Publisher : Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht
  • Release : 2022-09-05
  • ISBN : 3647573310
  • Pages : 293 pages

Download or read book Christians or Jews written by Réka Tímea Újlaki-Nagy and published by Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht. This book was released on 2022-09-05 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transylvanian Sabbatarianism emerged from the aspirations of the Reformation, without direct contact with the Jews. Although the most frequently asked question about them concerns their identity – were they Christians or Jews – the answers of the literature are superficial, biased, and take only an external point of view. The aim of this book, therefore, is to move closer to the 16—17th century Sabbatarian manuscripts and to examine how much they were still connected to Christianity in their biblical interpretations, doctrines and religious practices, how they adapted to Judaism, and how they saw themselves in relation to the two world religions. The analysis of Réka Tímea Újlaki-Nagy shows that although they still held some Christian beliefs, these were considered to be incidental and unnecessary to salvation. Sabbatarians followed the ideal of an age preceding Christ, consequently the Reformation effort to restitute apostolic Christianity disappeared from their religious thought.

Book Nearly Forgotten

    Book Details:
  • Author : Floyd Greenleaf
  • Publisher : TEACH Services, Inc.
  • Release : 2017-04-19
  • ISBN : 1479603457
  • Pages : 138 pages

Download or read book Nearly Forgotten written by Floyd Greenleaf and published by TEACH Services, Inc.. This book was released on 2017-04-19 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Nearly Forgotten: Seventh-day Adventists in Jamaica, Vermont, and Their Place in Vermont History, Floyd Greenleaf traces the birth of not only the local Seventh-day Adventist congregation in the rural township of Jamaica but also the rise of the Seventh-day Adventist movement itself, with its roots in Millerism and the development of second-advent and Sabbath theology. Greenleaf explores the complex and dynamic relationship between the trajectory of the church and a multitude of social, economic, political, and religious forces at play during the nineteenth century and into the early twentieth century. The book gives us an intriguing glimpse at the church's heyday and a mysterious decline that now leaves us with only memorabilia, brief personal accounts, diaries, some church records appearing in denominational publications, and overgrown tombstones. And yet, based on all the clues Greenleaf examines, the vibrant lives appearing in his narrative are important to the story of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. They not only reflected Adventism of the time, but Vermont history as well, and left a mark on the local scene. What life forces remain active, and what elements of identity have persisted to bring us to where we are today?

Book The Religion Supported State

Download or read book The Religion Supported State written by Nathan S. Rives and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-08-31 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1776 and 1850, the people, politicians, and clergy of New England transformed the relationship between church and state. They did not simply replace their religious establishments with voluntary churches and organizations. Instead, as they collided over disestablishment, Sunday laws, and antislavery, they built the foundation of what the author describes as a religion-supported state. Religious tolerance and pluralism coexisted in the religion-supported state with religious anxiety and controversy. Questions of religious liberty were shaped by public debates among evangelicals, Unitarians, Universalists, deists, and others about the moral implications of religious truth and error. The author traces the shifting, situational political alliances they constructed to protect the moral core of their competing truths. New England's religion-supported state still resonates in the United States in the twenty-first century.
