Ballenger / Calvin Edwards Collection

 Accession
Identifier: Collection 213

Content Description

The focus of the collection is on the meaning of the word ‘law’ in the Bible books of Galatians and Ephesians. The collection is almost entirely photocopies of materials from various sources related to A. F. Ballenger on these topics. In addition, there are several Ellen G. White manuscripts on the topics of divorce, infidelity in marriage, remarriage, and the meaning of the seventh commandment. Copies of Adventist publications in folder 1 (1888-1909) seem to track where Ballenger was working at the time he is mentioned in the articles. Many articles, originally written by Ballenger while he was in Great Britain, describe the progress of the Adventist work in that area, mentioning new converts by name.
