Adventist History | The Messengers of the Advent (Part 2)

Meet more messengers of the Advent message. Learn about Joseph Wolff, the “Missionary to the World,” who traveled extensively, preaching Christ’s soon return across continents and diverse cultures, even finding ancient echoes of the Advent hope among descendants of Moses’ father-in-law and the tribe of Dan in Yemen. Discover Josiah Litch, who bolstered the Millerite message by accurately predicting the fall of the Ottoman Empire on August 11, 1840, based on Revelation 9. Understand the crucial role of publisher Joshua Himes in spreading the message far and wide. Be introduced to Charles Fitch, co-creator of the influential 1843 prophetic chart, who preached “Come out of her, My people.” Finally, meet Samuel Snow, the man who pinpointed October 22, 1844, as the end of the 2300-day prophecy, initiating the “Midnight Cry.”
