This chapter explores the contribution of the Seventh-day Adventist theologian/preacher Ellen White to Black Theology by comparing her early 19th century work to the later writings of James Cone. An argument is put forward that White intuited many of the insights that Cone would later formulate, demonstrating both that White can be a valuable…[Read more]

An analysis of William Foy’s visions are compared with Ellen White’s, noting that the two shared the same vision. Both visions are ultimately traced to the apocryphal work of 2 Esdras, popular among Millerites, allowing us to analyze how both Foy and White utilized the Apocrypha in their visionary renditions. Furthermore, this analysis sheds light…[Read more]

This chapter seeks to rectify such historical misrepresentations by presenting an initial attempt to summarize the entire…[Read more]

It will begin by outlining the biblical background of this often-ignored portrait and then will proceed to outline how this theological approach can breathe new life into various approaches toward God.
