Paper 2: The Great Awakening
The theological significance behind America’s first two Great Awakenings lies in the effect that they had on the shape of Christian thinking. They were more important theological events than later revivals, with the First stimulating a brief revival of Calvinism and the Second being more important because it ushered in a democratic theology that shaped American Protestantism through the 1870’s, contributed to a legacy to modern evangelicalism, and provided one of the major sources of fundamentalism.[footnoteRef:1] Despite the noted importance of the Second Great Awakening, this paper will discuss the less important, but still impactful, Great Awakening. The following subjects will be examine a biography of Jonathan Edwards and George Whitefield, a discussion of their contributions, a short discussion over a few other leaders of the First Great Awakening, and an explanation of Evangelicalism during the First Great Awakening. [1: Walter A. Elwell. “Great Awakenings” Evangelical Dictionary of Theology Ed. 2. (Grand Rapids, MI: Baker Academic, 2001). 523.]
Biographies
Jonathan Edwards (1703-1758) was the son of a congregational minister. He entered into the ministry in 1726 after earning a bachelor’s degree at Yale. “His first charge was Northampton, Massachusetts, where he served until dismissed in 1750 after a controversy with his congregation over standards for church admission.”[footnoteRef:2] He then moved to Stockbridge, MA where he ministered to congregations of Indians and whites. Edwards is regarded as the greatest evangelical theologian in America. This is based on the “depth and breadth of his writing and his importance for both practical and theoretical religion.”[footnoteRef:3] He preached over twelve hundred sermons, and opened the revival among his congregation with his series on justification by faith. He provided a more systematic exposition of Augustinian and Calvinistic views in his works. Outside preaching and teaching Edwards He was also the most powerful exponent of experimental Calvinism. His “rejuvenation of a basically Calvinistic soteriology was the longest-lived theological result of the First Awakening.”[footnoteRef:4] He died in 1758 on March 22 from smallpox. [2: Ibid., 366.] [3: Ibid., 366.] [4: Walter A. Elwell. “Great Awakenings” Evangelical Dictionary of Theology Ed. 2. (Grand Rapids, MI: Baker Academic, 2001). 523.]
George Whitefield (1714-1770) was an ordained minister of the Church of England. He was a member of the “Holy Club” during the 1720’s. In 1738 he traveled to Georgia to aid in the founding of an orphanage and when he returned, his reputation as a dramatic preacher preceded him. He went on a preaching tour in New England in 1740 where he addressed crowds of nearly eight thousand every day for over a month. This tour became the key event in New England’s Great Awakening, and he eventually became known as the best known evangelist of the eighteenth century .

Friedrich Schleiermacher (d. 1834). Major works: On Religion: Speeches to its Despisers among the Educated (1799, 3rd edition, 1821); Celebration of Christmas (1806); The Christian Faith (1821); Life of Jesus (published posthumously in the 1864); Introduction to the New Testament (1829-1832); and an influential work on Hermeneutics [Biblical interpretation], based on handwritten manuscripts (first published in 1838, but published in a critical edition without student notes in 1959). English translations of these works are in print, except for the Introduction to the New Testament.
One of the founders of the University of Berlin in 1810, preacher, classical scholar, whose translation of Plato’s Dialogues is the standard translation in Germany today. S. had close Jewish friends and was instrumental in the rise of Reform Judaism and Jewish emancipation. Otto von Bismarck, who in 1871 unified Germany, was S.’s catechumen as a young man. That in the same year that he became chancellor of a united Germany Jews were recognized as citizens with full civil rights might not be an accident (nor perhaps an accident either that Germany embarked on a path towards militarism and imperialism under Bismarck). Brought to Berlin W. M. L. de Wette (father of modern Old Testament criticism), Augustus Neander (father of modern church history, and famous for his dictum “the heart makes the theologian”), G. W. Friedrich Hegel (d. 1831), as well as E. W. Hengstenberg (d. 1866), the leader of German conservative theology from 1827 until his death. Influenced his young colleague, Friedrich Tholuck (d. 1877), specialist in Oriental languages, who became a conservative under the influence of E. W. Hengstenberg, but who in his early career believed Islam was superior to Christianity, and who wrote an important book on Sufism (Sufism, or the Pantheistic Philosophy of Persia [1821]) and a translation of Islamic mystical writings, Eastern Mysticism (1825). David F. Strauss (d. 1873) was his student at Berlin and was later to criticize severely S.’s Life of Jesus as seriously defective from a historical standpoint.
Scheliermacher is considered the father of Liberal theology. Although influenced by Kantian idealism, he shifts the essence of religion from dogma and revelation (orthodoxy) and ethics (Kant) to feeling. As he says elsewhere, religion is a matter of the heart, not the head, of the affections, not concepts (reminiscent of the theology of the American Puritan theologian, Jonathan Edwards [d. 1758]). He accepted the new historical criticism coming into its own in the 18th century, including the Kantian critique of religion that challenged the viability of the dogmatic and epis ...
Let us vote on each of the sayings on Jesus, a red bead for each truly authentic saying of Jesus, a pink bead when the saying sure sounds like Jesus, gray, maybe, a black bead for a saying Jesus could not have said, although centuries of biblical scholars thought and taught otherwise.
Using this voting method, the self-appointed members of the Jesus Seminar in 1985 pronounced that only fifteen sayings were truly said by Jesus, while another seventy-five sayings were probably words of Jesus. There were a few eminent scholars in the group, most were middling academics, none were from the most eminent theological universities. But it was great television, great headlines, great press, controversial conspiracies, grabbing ten minutes of fame for this or that ignorant expert.
The original attendees of the Jesus Seminar have mostly been forgotten, with only a spare mention by Dr Wikipedia, but unfortunately the historical Jesus baton was passed to Bart Ehrman, one of the foremost textual critics of the New Testament, which means his specialty is examining the ancient Greek manuscript texts for variants. Dr Timothy Johnson wrote a book disputing the claims of the historical Jesus, The Real Jesus, which will be our main source. This book first looks back to the history of the church since the Reformation, and in the United States since World War II and the GI Bill, to understand how such beliefs can become widespread.

Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…
In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

2. By 1919 the Seventh- day Adventist Church had
gone through two identity crises.
The first is after the Great
Disapointment of October 1844, led to
the question.
What is Adventist in Adventism ?
The second, climaxing at the 1888
meeting in minneapolis, raised the
question.
What is Christian in Adventism ?
And of how the denomination should relate the
distinctive Adventist contribution to theology to
those beliefs shared with other evangelical
Christians.
3. A Polarizing Theological Context
The 1920s was an especially traumatic
decade for American Protestantism. For a
half century the Protestant churches had
gradually divided into conservative (
fundamentalist ) and liberal ( modernist )
wings.
Thus the liberal churches accepted such
philosophies as Darwinian evolution and
integrated it into their belief system as
God’s way of doing things.
4. Adventism found itself caught up in the struggle
between the modernists and the fundamentalists.
Like the fundamentalists, the Adventists also saw
the issues as being of the utmost importance. We
see that crisis mentality reflected in two book
covers from Adventist presses in 1924.
The first is titled “ The Battle of the
Churches: Modernism or
Fundamentalism, Which ?
The battle is on, reads the book’s first
sentence. It must be decided whether
Christianity is to accept the Holy Scriptures
as the rule of the faith, or have its way
charted by the rationalism, theories, and
specilations of men.... There can be no
neutral ground in this controversy. ( p. 7;
5. The second book, Christianity at the
Crossroads, depicts a man walking to the
holy city.
Standing at a junction, he faces a choice on which
way to take the way of modernism or that of
fundamentalism. Once again the book’s opening
sentences set the tone for the volume.
The Christian Church we read is being
shaken to day with tremendous force. It
has become necessary to examine its
foundations in an effort to determine
whether it can stand. (p. 5)
6. Adventism Moves Toward a More Rigid
Position on Inspiration
A group within Adventism had always held to
verbal inspiration and inerrancy. According to W.
C. White in 1928, W. W. Prescott had brought
the idea of verbal inspiration into Adventism
during the late 1880s.
The acceptance of that view”. White wrote,
by the students in the Battle Creek College
and many others, including Elder Haskell ,
has resulted in bringing into our work
questions and perplexities without end, and
always increasing. ( 3SM 454 )
7. But it should be realized that not all Adventist leaders
held to the fundamentalist position on inspiration.
Some of the foremost leader of the church took a
more moderate position.
The position she espoused on thought versus verbal
inspiration was the denomination at its 1883 General
Conference session. We believe reads part of the
resolution the light given by God to his sevants is by
the enlightenment of the mind, thus imparting, the
thoughts, and not ( except in rare cases ) the very
words in which the ideas should be expressed. ( ibid.,
Nov. 27, 1883, 741)
Not only did Ellen White reject verbal inspiration but she also
denied inerrancy. Thus she was more than happy to have the
factual errors corrected in such books as The Great Controversy
during its revision in 1911 ( for more in this topic see my Reading
Ellen White. 105 – 112 )
8. A People of the Book or a People of
the Books
A second issue in the area of inspiration during
the 1920s was the continuing temptation to do
theology from EllenWhite and to make her qually
authoritative with or even superior to the Bible.
The central place of Ellen White writngs in
Adventism was not just a preoccupation with
dissidents such as Holmes and Washburn.
Leader at the center of the movement also
espoused it.Thus F. M. Wilcox could claim in 1921 that her
writings constitute a spiritual commentary upon
the Scriptures and in 1946 that they were inspired
commentary on the Bible. ( RH, Feb. 3, 1921, 2, ;
June 9, 1946, 62 )
9. To that comment Daniells responded: yes
but i have heard ministers say that the
spirit of prophecy is the interpreter of the
Bible.
I heard it preached at the General
Conference some years ago { by A. T.
Jones } when it was said that the only way
we could understand the Bible was through
the writings of the spirit of Prophecy. J.M.
Anderson added that he also said infallible
interpreter.
10. A Revived Interest in Righteousness by Faith
One important outcome of Daniells 1924
ministerial in stitute meeting was a
recommendation for him to compile a book from
the writings of Ellen White on justification by
faith, resulting in the 1926 publication of Christ
Our Righteousness.
Another important event connected with the
ministerial institute was the conversion of Le
Roy E. Froom to the centrality of Christ and
His righteousness. Christianity he
subsequently reported is basically a personal
relationship to a Person Jesus Christ my
Lord.
11. The Crucial Role of M. L. Andreasen
and His Last Generation Theology
Andreasen served as a college and conference
administrator, an author of some 15 books and a
college and seminary professor. He was Adventism
most influential theologian in the 1930s and 1940s.
His special field of interest was the sanctuary and
Christ atonement.
A further concept crucial to understanding
Andreasen is his firm belief that Christ atonement
remained unfinished at the cross an idea going
back to Crosier early treatment of the heavenly
sanctuary and Adventist understanding that the
antitypical Day of Atonement began in October
1844.
12. The final demonstration he writes of what the Gospel
can do in and for humanity is still in the future. Christ
showed the way by taking a human body. Men are to
follow His example and prove that what God did in
Christ He can do in every human being who submits to
Him. The world is awaiting this demonstration . When it
has been accomplished the end will come. ( p. 299;
italics supplied )
He goes on to note that the plan of
salvation must of necessity include not
only forgiveness of sin but complete
restoration. Salvation from sin is more
than forgiveness of sin.” ( p. 300 )
13. In the last generation God gives the final
demonstration that men can keep the law of God and
that they can live without sinning..
Through the last generation of saints God stands
finally vindicated.
Through them He defeats Satan and wins His case....
The cleansing of the sanctuary in heaven is dependent
upon the cleansing of God’s people on earth.
How important then that God people be holy
and without blame. In them every sin must be
burned out so that they will be able to stand in
the sight of a holy God and live with the
devouring fire. ( pp. 319, 321; italics supplied )
14. Perspective
What is fundamentalist in Adventism . During
these years Adventism came to see itself as not
only being in harmony with fundamentalism on
most points, but as even being more
fundamentalistic than the fundamentalists since
Adventism had all the fundamentals, in cluding
such Adventist dustinctives as the truth on the
Sabbath the state of the dead and the two
phase heavenly ministry of Jesus
The fundamentalist theory of inspiration in fact largely set
the tone for Adventist thinking on the topic. Probably the
one thing that kept Adventism from an open and
wholehearted acceptance of the fundamentalist view of
inspiration was the residual influence of Ellen White
