Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, Seventh-day Adventists are known for their healthcare institutions and their work in the field of medicine, but it wasn't always that way. In the late 1800s and early 1900s the Adventist Church was still in its infancy, and the medical work was just getting started. As with the introduction of anything new, there were bumps in the road as the church embarked on the work of obeying the divine instruction to combine taking care of physical needs with gospel proclamation. But did the way need to be so rough? Three Adventist Titans: The significance of heeding or rejecting the counsel of Ellen White examines the lives of three prominent Adventist leaders-John Harvey Kellogg, physician at the Battle Creek Sanitarium; Arthur G. Daniells, president of the General Conference; and Percy Magan, founder of Madison College and later president of the College of Medical Evangelists-who each played an important role in founding the medical and evangelical work of the church. The book provides an in-depth look at the lives of these three men, their work in the church, their personal communication with Ellen White, their regard for the counsel of the Spirit of Prophecy, and their adherence or rejection of that counsel.

This book was released on 2023-07-20 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Seventh-day Adventist church, formally organized in America in 1863, is today one of the fastest-growing Protestant movements in the world and defines itself as a prophetic remnant, raised up and commissioned by God to teach and preach a final message of warning to the world before the imminent return of Christ. From its beginnings, however, a sense of failure was built into the success of the fledgling movement. In order to preserve the message (the imminent return of Christ), Adventists had to erect institutions based on continuity and permanence. A dilemma emerged: medical institutions built to be conducive for separation from the world faced a this-worldly reality filled with requirements from various state entities: registration, approval, and so forth. Thus, Adventist medical institutions confronted constant challenges to their denominational and theological uniqueness. The emergence of this dilemma between aspirations of separateness and this-worldly reality was especially evident in the battle for Adventism's sectarian identity, ethos, and future at the turn of the twentieth century--between Ellen G. White (a cofounder of the movement) and Dr. John H. Kellogg (an Adventist administrator and surgeon who sought to desectarianize the movement).

Download or read book Ellen Harmon White written by Terrie Dopp Aamodt and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2014 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In America, as in Britain, the Victorian era enjoyed a long life, stretching from the 1830s to the 1910s. It marked the transition from a pre-modern to a modern way of life. Ellen White's life (1827-1915) spanned those years and then some, but the last three months of a single year, 1844, served as the pivot for everything else. When the Lord failed to return on October 22, as she and other followers of William Miller had predicted, White did not lose heart. Fired by a vision she experienced, White played the principal role in transforming a remnant minority of Millerites into the sturdy sect that soon came to be known as the Seventh-day Adventists. She and a small group of fellow believers emphasized a Saturday Sabbath and an imminent Advent. Today that flourishing denomination posts twenty million adherents globally and one of the largest education, hospital, publishing, and missionary outreach programs in the world. Over the course of her life White generated 50,000 manuscript pages and letters, and produced 40 books that have enjoyed extremely wide circulation. She ranks as one of the most gifted and influential religious leaders in American history, and Ellen Harmon White tells her story in a new and remarkably informative way. Some of the contributors identify with the Adventist tradition, some with other Christian denominations, and some with no religious tradition at all. Taken together their essays call for White to be seen as a significant figure in American religious history and for her to be understood her within the context of her times.

Book excerpt: "Those who knew Bates longest and best, esteemed him most highly." –James White Shanghaied by the British in 1810, Joe Bates spent the next five years as a British sailor and prisoner, surviving the Dartmoor massacre. Soon he was captain of his own ship, forcing his sailors to swear off liquor and talking pirates out of their prey. Scrupulously honest, he once turned his ship around to return money overpaid him. In 1824 Joseph was converted and signed "a solemn covenant with God." He found "the pearl of great price which was . . . worth more than all the vessels and cargoes I have ever commanded." After amassing a small fortune, he retired at age 36 and joined the Christian Connexion, who took the Scriptures as their "only rule of faith and practice." Then his life began to get interesting. This biography by historian George Knight makes use of previously unavailable sources, letters, and logbooks to shed new light on the first theologian and real founder of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, who gave his estate to the new Advent movement, and spent the rest of his life in unpaid service to his King. Knight examines Bates' writings, his social and health reform, his key role in bringing the Sabbath to Adventism, and his conflict and partnership with James White. A hero who stood for truth against the majority, Bates once cut a hole in three feet of ice to baptize seven converts when it was 30 degrees below zero. In this biography Knight strips away the veneer of history to reveal new textures in the life of this most colorful pioneer.

Download or read book End of a Vision written by Albert Dittes and published by TEACH Services, Inc.. This book was released on with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book details how and why Madison College closed. It takes a fascinating look at the reasons why a self-supporting college ultimately had to shut down. “On April 22, 1959, the board of the Nashville Agricultural and Normal Institute (N.A.N.I.), better known as Madison College, voted to start construction of a new hospital facility and to hire a professional fundraising team. The minutes called for ‘immediate steps to be taken to put into operation plans for a central unit from which additions may be made from time to time as needed.’ “The hospital, dedicated in June of 1908 as Madison Rural Sanitarium, had fulfilled a dual role in the life of the Nashville Agricultural and Normal Institute (N.A.N.I.) which had been founded in 1904 and consisted of a farm and sanitarium in addition to a school. The unique purpose of Madison had been to serve as a training base for lay Seventh-day Adventists wanting to extend the mission of the church into the then-underprivileged South. The hospital played an important role in this vision, giving the institutions contact with their communities and also bringing in needed money. Madison Sanitarium and Hospital not only served as the financial base of the self-supporting Adventist movement, but also helped meet the medical needs of the eastern section of Nashville and Davidson County. Its financial strains would affect the entire institution as well as its affiliated self-supporting units looking to it for leadership.” “I believe that many people who have in any way had a relationship to Madison College, directly or indirectly, will find this riveting story of its decline and closure very enlightening. ~ Mary Elizabeth “Ikey” DeVasher, PhD, CRNA Dean Emerita/Adjunct Faculty Middle Tennessee School of Anesthesia, Madison, TN “Albert Dittes is a student of the Madison School and his approach to this book on Madison’s closing is very thoughtful and well researched. I recommend his book for your reading.” ~ Jim Culpepper, Exec. Sec/Treas , Madison College Alumni Association “I had no idea that the school was in such shape at the time I was there. I still grieve for Madison College as I hold it to be a wonderful place for people such as I who did not have the means to attend the local union college. For me Madison was a place of refuge and a place that I learned to really appreciate.” ~ Harry Mayden, President Madison College Alumni Association

Book excerpt: If you have heard C. D. Brooks preach, it was most certainly an unforgettable experience. His distinct voice trumpets truth with an authority rarely seen in today's pulpits. The stories he skillfully weaves thrill the imagination and bring conviction to the heart. Loving yet uncompromising, Brooks delivers the Adventist message without apology. His appeals to accept Jesus reverberate in the mind long after they are over. With a 60-year ministry spanning the ghettos of the city, sands of the desert, and islands of the sea, C. D. Brooks has led more than 15,000 souls to Christ on six continents and dozens of countries. A media trailblazer, Brooks has spread the gospel through every type of media, including cassette, radio, television, and Internet. For 23 years this founding speaker of the Breath of Life Ministries telecast appeared in millions of homes across the globe, and is undoubtedly one of the greatest evangelists of the twentieth century. Few have been given a window into the man behind the message-until now. In this book you catch a rare glimpse into the personal trials and triumphs of this modern apostle. From humble roots in the rural South at the beginning of the Great Depression to the Internet age in which his sermons are some of the most downloaded items online, C. D.: The Man Behind the Message is as riveting as a sermon from the man himself, and just like his preaching, it will lead you to recommit your life to Jesus Christ.
Download or read book Leaving the Seventh Day Adventist Church written by Sonia Nicole Levi and published by Sonia Nicole Levi. This book was released on 2023-05-28 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you tried to be one who submits not realizing that is Islamic? That is what happens when someone is groomed into a cult. It becomes a way of life until one finds that they are blending several religions into one and assuming that God is there without the Holy Spirit. There may be a god there but it is not the God of the Jews, Tetragrammaton shortened to the syllables YHVH. He extended salvation through all Jews, not just Jesus. John 4:22 says, "You worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews." These words were stated in red denoting that they spoken by Jesus himself. Jesus died on the cross with the inscription INRI for the "King of the Jews" only. YHVH also changed his name to symbolically reflect that he is the God of the Jews and Gentiles to Jehovah JHVH still the shortened form of Tetragrammaton. Sabbath services are strictly forbidden on Saturdays in Judaism and Islam. When Ellen G. White received her vision to create a new christian denomination she thought in her mind that she had "carteblanche" to create an entirely new church system. She did not have "carteblanche" from Jesus or Jehovah as Seventh Day Adventists were an extension of bewildered Jehovah's Witnesses. Seventh Day Adventists are considered one of The Asherah's cults. This denomination is well known for attracting everyone to do the same things the same way "when" this is NOT wisdom. It is Satanic. Discover the meaning behind the man Jesus and all that Judaism, Kabbalah and Christianity has to offer to the neophyte and seasoned believer, arrive at a place of truism where witches are stunned and find freedom in bowing at the name of Kyrios who is Jesus, Emmanuel, and JHVH.
Download or read book The Unknown Prophet written by Delbert W. Baker and published by Review & Herald Publishing. This book was released on 1987 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ellen G White is recognized by Adventists as being signally used by God. Repeatedly she received visions to encourage and instruct God's people following the Great Disappointment and beyond. However, few may know that she was not the only one to receive visions--that she was the third in a series of persons to whom God gave visions during the middle 1800s. Fewer still may know that the first of the three was William Ellis Foy, a young Black man who lived in Boston in 1842. Volumes have been written about Ellen White.Very little has been written about the other two people--William Foy and Hazen Foss. Foss's history is fairly straightforward. He himself admitted that he had refused to relay the messages God had given him, and subsequently he showed no interest in religion. The history of William Foy is different. Until now Foy's background, his ministry, and even his visions have been lost in the shadows of time. What visions did he receive? Did he share them in obedience to the divine command? What were the circumstances that caused Ellen White and Foy to meet, and how did their experience compare? What became of Foy?. This book will answer these and other vital questions in a clear, engaging manner. Delbert Baker has done a service to the history of Adventism by researching Foy's story and presenting it here for the first time--nearly 150 years after the fact! - PREFACES. Introduction.
