Larry Wessels, director of Christian Answers of Austin, Texas/ Christian Debater (YouTube channel: CANSWERSTV at http://www.youtube.com/user/CAnswersTV; websites: http://www.BIBLEQUERY.ORG, http://www.HISTORYCART.COM & http://www.MUSLIMHOPE.COM) interviews two former members of the Seventh-Day Adventist religion created by a supposed "prophetess" named Ellen G. White. Wallace Slattery, author of the booklet, "Are Seventh-Day Adventists False Prophets?" (& former instructor & member of the SDA for 44 years) is joined in studio by his wife Carole, also a former SDA member for 44 years.
Adventism is a product of the great religious revivals that regularly swept through America, especially in certain districts of New England & New York, in the early nineteenth century. A farmer named William Miller became convinced (much the same as modern day false prophets like Harold Camping of the Family Radio Network who has repeatedly predicted the end of the world based on his own Bible interpretations) through his own study of the Bible that the 2300 prophetic days of Daniel 8:14 represented 2300 years beginning in 457 B.C. with the decree of Artaxerxes I to rebuild Jerusalem & continuing down to 1843 or 1844 when he predicted Christ would return to Earth. Miller began preaching this prediction in the 1820s & continued to preach it into the 1840s. His doomsday message gathered perhaps a million followers throughout the Middle Atlantic & New England states.
