Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:This title profiles a large Christian denomination that is only two centuries old, but one that has a rapidly growing member base, including a large presence in the Third World. It: reviews the notable historical events in a chronology; explains the development of the Seventh-day Adventist as a world religion in the introductory essay; describes the persons, places, events, doctrines, publications, institutions, organizations, and societies that played a significant role in shaping the religion; and provides an extensive bibliography of works on Seventh-day Adventism and books expressing Adventist views on theological and other issues. It is written by an author who knows this history, as well as an Adventist who teaches at Andrews University, a major Seventh-day Adventist educational institution, and a member of the Association of Seventh-day Adventist historians.
