- Title
SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST PIONEERS AND THE EPISTLE TO PHILEMON: AN ABOLITIONIST PERSPECTIVE.
- Authors
Blanco, Marcos
- Abstract
The Epistle to Philemon was a key text for supporters of slavery throughout Christian history including the nineteenth century which saw the beginnings of Sabbatarian Adventism. Adventist pioneers naturally inherited anti-slavery views from the Millerites, who were social reformers. Miller himself was an active abolitionist as were many of his Adventist associates including Joshua V. Himes, Charles Fitch, and Joseph Bates.
