Abstract

Arthur Grosvenor Daniells was a child who was born into a family that could be said to be less fortunate, he was even sent to an orphanage because of poverty, and together with his wife, Mary, he was once a servant in James White's family home. But in the end, Daniells became a pastor and even the longest-serving central leader of the Seventh-day Adventist Church (GMAHK) and was even recorded as one of the most reliable GMAHK administrators ever in GMAHK history. This article aims to find out Daniells’ theological and missiological journey so that he can become the leader of the global GMAHK center. This paper explains that in his spiritual journey, Daniells understood that the task of a pastor was not just shepherding, but rather evangelism. This was motivated by Jesus' Great Commission to spread the Gospel throughout the world, so that young Daniells began his missionary journey to New Zealand and Australia which would later lead him to become the leader of GMAHK in New Zealand and Australia, and even GMAHK worldwide. His principle of evangelism was to plan your work and work your plan, which proved effective in his missionary trips to areas he had never been before. This article is a qualitative approach that uses historical descriptive methods and documentary research. For each part, the researcher utilizes primary sources. Secondary sources are used only to see the current opinion about the issue.

Abstract

The Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) Church believes that the Bible is the inspired word of God. The purpose of this study is to review the views of the SDA regarding the inspiration of the Bible from before the SDA organization was founded until now. This paper argues that there are several views among the pioneers and leaders of the SDA regarding the inspiration of the Bible. First, before the organization of the SDA, some held the view that divine inspiration extended to every word of the Bible, while others had the view that the Bible is the perfect word of God. After the SDA was organized in 1863, views regarding inspiration varied. Some held the view that there are degrees of inspiration in the Bible, while others believed that the Holy Spirit dictated the writing of the Bible to the prophets. Others, however, believed that the Bible is the only infallible rule of faith and practice. However, after 1883, within the SDA, there was only one view regarding the inspiration of the Bible: the SDA did not believe in verbal inspiration, but thought inspiration. This paper is a historical approach using the documentary research method.
