THE NEW YEAR.
/
1 Before me lies a land all unexplored;
iNo foot of man has left its impress there.
IMy path across this plain God bids me choose,
And make it straight or crooked as I will.
I But right must be the path of those who win I
I The approbation of their inmost hearts, /
IAnd smile of an approving, all-wise God.
A goal, then, I must have a purpose firm. i
A chart and compass, too, I'll surely need /
i To guide my steps across this trackless plain.
Oh, then I'll make my goal a perfect life!
My chart shall be God's Word; my star, his Son!
And if, perchance, I stumble here or there,
1
If sometimes darksome clouds obscure my view,
When clears my sky, I'll press my journey on,
Nor willing turn aside from the bright Star
That points me ever toward my chosen goal
A perfect moral likeness to my God.
C. P. BOLLMAN.
PREFACE.
NEARLY fifty-one years have elapsed since the organization of this
work, and the progress made during the past half century has been
truly remarkable. The following pages indicate that the organization
of this cause at the present time is arranged as follows:
Division Conferences 2
Division Mission 1
Union Conferences 26
Union Missions 2
Conferences 129
Missions 108
Educational Institutions 79
Publishing Houses and Branches 37
Periodicals 125
Languages in which Publications are issued 75
Sanitariums 38
Treatment Rooms 7
Food Factories and Cafes 18
Changes are made so frequently that it seems difficult to issue a
directory some portion of which is not out of date by the time the
publication comes from the press. This is necessarily true in a growing
work of this kind covering such a wide extent of territory. It would
be impossible to select a time for issuing this publication when changes
would not occur in conference and institutional directories, for this cause
is continually growing, and growth means change. The difficulty ex-
perienced in collating such material will be understood when it is stated
that after the " copy " for one section of this issue was in hand, and the
type had even been made into pages, further revisions were received by
which one union mission, the Siberian, was eliminated, and its territory
and workers arranged principally under the Russian Union, which was
in turn divided into eastern and western divisions. Other portions of
the Siberian Union were grouped with the European Division Missions.
The historical and statistical tables appear again in this issue, by
reference to which one can obtain an idea of the more important events
and data regarding this movement since its inception.
Directories will be found on the following pages:
Conferences 5-157
Institutions 158-206
Ministerial Directory 207-234
Historical and Statistical Summaries 235-292
Fundamental Principles and Constitutions 293-309
For reference to any particular division, see the index, page 310.

HISTORICAL SUMMARY OF THE
GENERAL CONFERENCE OF
SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS
GIVING A BRIEF ACCOUNT OF
The Rise and Progress of the Denomination, together with Historical
Data Regarding the Organizations and Institutions
Connected Therewith.
ARRANGED IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER.
IN attempting to collate matter from the records indicating the
rise and progress of the Seventh-day Adventist denomination, there
are two obstacles which at first seem insurmountable: First, to deter
mine what shall be selected from all the mass of periodic literature,
of Conference proceedings, of editorial production, of the record or
missionary effort, which have appeared during the past seventy years,
and issued in various forms, in different parts of the country, and by
many persons; and, second, after having begun the work of selecting
the statements of the men who assisted in making the history what it
is, the next and greater difficulty is to confine the selections within
the limits of the space which may be used for this purpose, and still
retain much of interest regarding the rise of the work in obscurity
and poverty; of the hardships endured by the leaders and pioneers in
this work; of its slow yet constant growth; of the battles waged re-
garding its concrete organization, and later the organization of its
various departments; of the beautiful and harmonious doctrines that
are clearly set forth in the publications issued; of the spread of the
work to other lands; and of the ultimate triumph of the message,
which has even been the goal before those who have been engaged in
the work of the people brought out by the third angel's message.
In the following pages will be found one form of evidence as to
the progress of this cause in the facts and figures cited. This cause,
however, lives not in any figures, but in the hearts of its believers.
But these figures furnish a spurce of gratification, indicating that the
triumph of the message is near.
" The Advent cause owes its very existence to the first and second
angels' messages of Revelation 14." James White, in Review and
Herald, Vol. II, No. 10, p. 76.
" We hold that the great movement upon the second advent ques-
tion, which commenced with the writings and public lectures of William
Miller, has been, in its leading features, in fulfilment of prophecy.
Consistent with this view, we also hold that in the providence of CO
Mr. Miller was raised up to do a specific work." James White, in In-
troduction to "Life of William Miller."
but had not sincerely embraced the doctrine, saw that they must
either go with the doctrine, and preach and maintain it, or in the
crisis which .was right upon_ them they would have difficulty with
the decided and determined believers. They therefore decided against
the doctrine, and determined, some by one policy and some by an-
other, to suppress the subject. This placed our brethren and sisters
among them in a most trying position. Most of them loved their
former privileges and enjoyments, and when the `meat in due
season' was withheld from them, and the siren song of ' peace and
safety' was resounded in their ears from Sabbath to Sabbath, they
were soon weaned from their party predilections, and arose in the
majesty of their strength, shook off the yoke, and raised the cry,
' Come out of her, my people.' This state of things placed us in a
trying position: 1. Because we were near the end of our prophetic
time, in which we expected the Lord would gather all his people
in one; 2. We had always preached a different doctrine, and now
that the circumstances had changed, it would be regarded as dis-
honest in us, if we should unite in the cry of separation and break-
ing up of churches that had received us and our message. We there-
fore hesitated, and continued to act on our first position, until the
church and ministry carried the matter so far, that we were
obliged in the fear of God to take a position of defense for the
truth and down-trodden children of God." Joshua V. Himes, writ-
ten at McConnellsville, Ohio, Aug. 29, 1844, and printed in the
Advent Herald; quoted in the Review and Herald of Jan. 13, 1852.
1844: In 1844, Josiah Litch, writing upon the work that had been ac-
complished up to that time, in disseminating the doctrine of the
second coming of Christ, said: " Within the last six years publi-
cations treating on the subject have been sent to nearly every Eng-
lish and American missionary station on the globe. . . . The Advent
books have been greatly multiplied within the last four years. . . .
The first and most important work published was Mr. Miller's
Lectures. That volume may be regarded as the seed from which
all the rest have germinated.
" The works of Miller, Ward, Hale, Bliss, Fitch, Storrs, Brown,
Hervey, Cook, Whiting, Starkweather,Hawley, Litch, Fleming, Cox,
Sabine, etc., constitute the Second Advent Library, and exhibit
the views which have been presented to the public by the lecturers.
Other sheets and pamphlets have been published."
" No cause of a moral or religious character, probably, ever,
made so rapid advance as the cause of Adventism." From the
Review and Herald, published during April and May, 1856, at Battle
Creek, Mich., being a republication from the Advent Shield, in 1844.
Oct. 22, 1844, marked the close of the 2300 years and the begin-
ning of the cleansing of the sanctuary, or the judgment hour. On
this day occurred the great disappointment of Revelation 10.
Of his labors and the visible results up to 1844, Mr. Miller
wrote:
" I labored extensively in all the New England and Middle
States, in Ohio, Michigan, Maryland, the District of Columbia, and
in Canada, East and West, giving about four thousand lectures
in something like five hundred different towns."
" I should think that about two hundred ministers embraced
my views, in all the different parts of the United States and
Canada; and that there have been about five hundred public lec-
turers." " In nearly a thousand places, Advent congregations have

- his first course of lectures on the second coming of Christ. . . . I
attended these meetings." Mrs. E. G. White, in " Life Sketches."
p. 136.
1842: "In June, 1842, Mr. Miller gave his second course of lectures in
the Casco Street [Methodist] church, in Portland. I felt it a great
privilege to attend. these lectures." Idem., p. 148.
Elder James White attended the Advent camp-meeting in Oc-
tober, 1842, in, Exeter, Me., and immediately prepared to go out into
the great harvest-field, and do what he could in sounding the
warning.
1843: About May, 1843, Elder James White was ordained, by " min-
isters of the Christian denomination," of which he was a member.
1844: " The Sabbath was first introduced to the attention of the Ad-
ventist people at Washington,N. H. A faithful Seventh-day Bap-
tist sister, Mrs. Rachel D. Peston, from the State of New York.
having removed to this place, brought with her the Sabbath of
the Lord. Here she became interested in the doctrine of the glo-
rious advent of the Saviour at hand. Being instructed in this
subject by the Adventist people, she in turn instructed them in
the commandments of God, and as early as 1844 nearly the entire
church in that place, consisting of about forty persons, became
observers of the Sabbath of the Lord. The oldest body of Sab-
bath-keepers among Seventh-day Adventists is therefore at Wash-
ington, N. H." J. N. Andrews, in " History of the Sabbath," p. 500.
" From this 'place, several Adventist ministers reecived the
Sabbath truth during the year 1844. One of these was Elder T.
M. Preble, who has the honor of first bringing this great truth be
fore the Adventists through the medium of the press. His essay
was dated February 13, 1845," written at East Weare, N. H., and
appeared in the Hope of Israel, of February 28, 1845, published at
Portland, Me. This article was reprinted in the Review and Herald,
August 23, 1870. The article was rewritten by Elder Preble in
March, 1845, and published in tract form, and was .printed in the
Review of December 21, 1869. Idem, p. 506.

cent. The income from the mission fields for 1911, was $135,234.87,
and the amount added thereto by the home base, was $357,587.73.
The progress made in entering these fields may be illustrated

non-Protestant land, the next decade saw the opening of work in 17
different countries, or 25.38 per cent of all the countries that have
been entered; during the next decade, from 1896 1905, work was
begun in 29 countries, or 43.28 per cent of all; during the six years
following, to 1911, 21 other countries have been entered, or 31.34
per cent of all. Thus work in 50 new countries has been begun
during the past sixteen years, or 74.62 per cent of all that have been
entered since 1886. Total adherents in the 67 countries constituted
15.74 per cent of total communicants. Including work in Christian
lands, there were 85 countries in which work was conducted at the
close of 1911, the communicants in Christian lands constituting 84.26
per cent of total.

7. That the world's history from specified dates in the past, the rise
and fall of empires, and the chronological succession of events down to
the settin-g up of God's everlasting kingdom, are outlined in numerous
great chains of prophecy; and that these prophecies are now all fulfilled
except the closing scenes.
8. That the doctrine of the world's conversion and a temporal mil-
lennium is a fable of these last days, calculated to lull men into a
state of carnal security, and cause them to be overtaken by the great
day of the Lord as by a thief in the night (1 "Thess. 5: 3); that the
second coming of Christ is to precede, not follow, the millennium; for
until the Lord appears, the papal power, with all its abominations, is
to continue (2 Thess. 2: 8), the wheat and the tares grow together
(Matt. 13: 29, 30, 39), and evil men and seducers wax worse and worse,
as the Word of God declares. 2 Tim. 3: 1, 13.
9. That the mistake of Adventists in 1844 pertained to the nature
of the event then to transpire, .not to the time; that no prophetic
period is given to reach to the second advent, but that the longest one,
the two thousand and three hundred days of Dan. 8: 14, terminated
in 1844, and brought us to an event called the cleansing of the sanc-
tuary. See Note 1.
10. That the sanctuary of the new covenant is the tabernacle of God
in heaven, of which Paul speaks in Hebrews S and onward, and of
which our Lord, as great high priest, is minister; that this sanctuary
is the antitype of the Mosaic tabernacle, and that the priestly work
of our Lord, connected therewith, is the antitype of the work of the
Jewish priests of the former dispensation (Heb. 8: 1-5, etc.) ; that this,
and not the earth, is the sanctuary to be cleansed at the end of the
two thousand and three hundred days, what is termed its cleansing
being in this ease, as in the type, simply the entrance of the high priest
into the most holy place, to finish the round of service connected there-
with by making the atonement and removing from the sanctuary the
sins of believers (Acts 3: 19), and occupies a brief but indefinite space
in the second apartment (Leviticus 16; Heb. 9: 22, 23); and that this
work inTh73ntitype, beoinning in 1844, consists in actually blotting out -
b 4: 19), and occupies a brief but indefinite
the sins of believers (Acts
space of time, at the conclusion of which the work of mercy for the
world will be finished, and the second advent of Christ will take place.
11. That God's moral requirements are the same upon all men in
all dispensations; that these are summarily contained in the com-
mandments spoken by Jehovah from Sinai, engraven on the tables of
stone, and deposited in the ark, which was in consequence called the
" ark of the covenant," or testament (Num. 10: 33; Heb. 9: 4, etc.);
that this law is immutable :yid perpetual, being a transcript of the
tables deposited in the ark in the true sanctuary on high, which is
also, for the same reason, called the ark of God's testament; for under
the' sounding of the seventh trumpet we are told that " the temple of
God was opened in,heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark
of his testament." Rev. 11: 19.
12. That the fourth commandment of this law requires that we
devote the seventh day of each week, commonly called Saturday, to
abstinence from our own labor, and to the performance of sacred and
religious duties; that this is the only weekly Sabbath known to the
Bible, being the day that was set apart before Paradise was lost (Gen.
2: 2, 3), and which will be observed in Paradise restored (Isa. 66: 2i!,
23); that the facts upon which the Sabbath institution is based con-
FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES. 295
fine it to the seventh day, as they are not true of any other day, and
that the terms- Jewish Sabbath, as applied to the seventh day, and
Christian sabbath, as applied to the first day of the week, are names
of human invention, unscriptural in fact, and false in meaning.
13. That as the man of sin, the papacy, has thought to change times
and laws (the law of God, Dan. 7: 25), and has misled almost all
Christendom in regard to the fourth commandment, we find a prophecy
of reform in this respect to be wrought among believers just before the
coining of Christ. Isa. 56: 1, 2; 1 Peter 1: 5; Rev. 14: 12, etc.
14. That the followers of Christ should be a peculiar people, not fol-
lowing the maxims, nor conforming to the ways, of the world; not
loving its pleasures nor countenancing its follies; inasmuch as the
apostle says that " whosoever therefore will be " in thig sense, " a friend
of the world is the enemy of God " (James 4: 4) ; and Christ says
that we can not have WO masters, or, at the same time, serve God
and mammon. Matt. 6: 24.
15. That the Scriptures insist upon plainness and modesty of attire
as a prominent mark of discipleship in those who profess to be the
followers of Him who was " meek and lowly in heart; " that the
wearing of gold, pearls, and costly array, or anything designed merely
to adorn the person and foster the pride of the natural heart, is to be
discarded, according to such scriptures as 1 Tim. 2: 9, 10; 1 Peter 3: 3, 4.
16. That means for the support of evangelical work among men
should be contributed from love to God and love of souls, not raised
by church lotteries, or occasions designed to contribute to the fun-lov-
ing, ,appetite-indulging propensities of the sinner, such as fairs, fes-
tivals, crazy socials, etc., which are a disgrace to the professed church
of Christ; that the proportion of one's income required in former dis-
pensation can be no less under the gospel; that it is the same as
Abraham (whose children we are, if we are Christ's. Gal. 3: 29) paid
to Melchisedec (type of Christ) when he gave him a tenth of all (Heb.
7: 1-4); the tithe is the Lord's (Lev. 27: 30) ; and this tenth of one's
income is also to be supplemented by offerings from those who are able,
for the support of the gospel. 2 Cor. 9: 6; Mal. 3: 8, 10.
17. That as the natural or carnal heart is at enmity with God and
his law, this enmity can be subdued only by a radical transformation
of the affections, the exchange of unholy for holy principles; that this
transformation follows repentance and faith, is the special work of
the Holy Spirit, and constitutes regeneration, or conversion.
18. That as all have violated the law of .God, and can not of them-
selves -render obedience to his just requirements, we are dependent on
Christ, first, for justification from our past offenses, and, secondly, for
grace whereby to render aceptable obedience to his holy law in time
to come. -
19. That. the Spirit of God was promised to manifest itself. in the
church through certain gifts, enumerated especially in 1 Corinthinians 12
and Ephesians 4; that these gifts are not designed to supersede, or take
the plae of, the Bible, which is sufficient to make us wise unto salva-
tion, any more than the Bible can take the place of the Holy Spirit;
that, in specifying the various channels of its operations, that Spirit
has simply made provision for its own existence and presence with the
people of God to the,end of time to lead to an understanding of that
word which it had inspired, to convince of sin, and to work a transfor-
mation in the heart and life; and that those who deny to the Spirit
its place and operation, do plainly deny that part of the Bible which
assigns to it this work and position.
296 FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES.
20. That God, in 'accordance with his uniform dealings with the race,
sends forth a proclamation of the approach of the second advent of
Christ; and that this work is symbolized by the three messages of
Revelation 14, the last one bringing to view the work of reform on
the law of God, that his people may acquire a complete readiness for
that event.
21. That the time of the cleansing of the sanctuary (see proposition
10), synchronizing with the time of the proclamation of the third
message (Rev. 14: 9,10), is a time of investigative judgment, first,
with reference to the dead, and secondly, at the close of probation, with
reference to the living, to determine who of the myriads now sleeping
in the dust of the earth are worthy of a part in the first resurrection,
and who of its living multitudes are worthy of translation, points
which must be determined before the Lord appears.
22. That the, grave, whither we all tend, expressed by the Hebrew
word " sheol " and the Greek word " hades," is a place, or condition, in
which there is no work, device, wisdom,nor knowledge. Eccl. 9: 10.
23. That the state to which we are reduced by death is one of silence,
inactivity, and entire unconsciousness. Ps. 146: 4; Eccl. 9: 5, 6; Dan.
12: 2.
24. That out of this prison-house of the grave, mankind are to be
brought by a bodily resurrection, the righteous having part in the first
resurrection, which takes place at the second coming of Christ; the
wicked in the second resurrection, which takes place in a thousand
years thereafter. Rev. 20: 4-6.
25. That at the last trump, the living righteous are to be changed
in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, and that the risen righteous
are to be caught up to meet the Lord in the air, so forever to be with
the Lord. 1 Thess. 4: 16, 17; 1 Cor. 15: 51, 52.
26. That these immortalized ones are then taken to heaven, to the
New Jerusalem, the Father's house, in which there are many mansions
(John 14: 1-3), where they reign with Christ a thousand years, judging
the world and fallen angels, that is, apportioning the punishment to
be executed upon them at the close of the one thousand years (Rev.
20: 4; 1 Cor. 6: 2, 3); that during this time the earth lies in a desolate,
chaotic condition (Jer. 4: 23-27), described, as in the beginning, by the
Greek term " abussos " (bottomless pit, Septuagint of Gen. 1: 2) ; and
that here Satan is confined during the thousand years (Rev. 20: 1, 2),
and here finally destroyed (Rev. 20: 10; Mal. 4:. 1) ; the theater of
the ruin he has wrought in the universe being appropriately made for
a time his gloomy prison-house, and then the place of his final execution.
27. That at the end of the thousand years the Lord descends with
his people and the New Jerusalem (Rev. 21: 2), the wicked dead are
raised, and come up on the surface of the yet unrene wed earth, and
gather about the city, the camp of the saints (Rev. 20: 9), and fire
comes down from God out of heaven and devours them. They are then
consumed, root and branch (Mal. 4: 1), becoming as though they had
not been (Obadiah 15, 16). In this everlasting destruction from the
presence of the Lord (2 Thess. 1: 9), the wicked meet the " everlasting
punishment" threatened against them (Matt. 25: 46), which is ever-
lasting death. Rom. 6: 23; Rev. 20: 14, 15. This is the perdition of
ungodly men, the fire which consumes them being the fire for which
" the heavens and the earth, which are now, . . . are kept in store,"
which shall melt even the elements with its intensity, and purge the
earth from the deepest stains of the curse of sin. 2 Peter 3: 7-12.
FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES. 297 '
28. That new heavens and a new earth shall spring by the power of
God from the ashes of the old, and this renewed earth with the New
Jerusalem for its metropolis and capital shall be the eternal inherit-
ance of the saints, the place where the righteous shall evermore dwell.
2 Peter 3: 13; Ps. 37: 11, 29; Matt. 5.

OF THE SABBATH
o HISTORY
By John Nevins Andrews. This great and exhaustive
O work is the result of many years' hard labor and historical
O research. It is a mine of useful information on the Sab-
bath question. It treats the subject from a Biblical and a
O historical standpoint. Every passage of Scripture which
has any connection with the Sabbath, in the Old Testa-
ment or in the New, is examined at length. The various
O steps by which the change from the seventh day to the
O
O first day was made, and the final exaltation of the Sabbath, 4
O are given in detail. The complete testimony of the Fa-
O
O thers, immediately succeeding the time of the apostles, in
regard to the Sabbath and first day, is presented, and the
comparative merits of the two days are clearly shown. A O
copious index enables the reader readily to find any pas-
O
p
sage of Scripture or the statement of any historian. From O
the pulpit and the press, in social circles and in legislative
O halls, the great demand of the hour is that the. Sabbath be
O more strictly observed. The book has been revised and 4
O
enlarged, and now contains over 800 pages.
