In 1888 the “most precious message of Righteousness by Faith” was presented straight from the Bible to the General Conference session of Seventh-day Adventists in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
This site is dedicated to the study and the spreading of that life-changing message.
To find out who we are, click on “About Us.” The “Resources” tab leads to a wealth of information on the message and the messengers. The “Calendar” link is updated periodically with Seminar and Conference dates and locations. We hope to meet you at one of the meetings!
The 1888 Message Study Committee began meeting as a group in 1984. The object was to study and learn more about the message of Righteousness by Faith which was presented by Alonzo T. Jones and Ellet J. Waggoner to the 1888 General Conference session of Seventh-day Adventists. As the small group of people began to study, they realized that this "message" was deeply interwoven with the Gospel--perhaps, even the crux of the Gospel. Their hearts yearned to share their studies with anyone and everyone who wanted to know more. Thus, an official organization was born.
Over the years studies were held in different locations on an annual basis. Attendance grew. New concepts began to be understood. Hearts were changed and people who had previously almost given up their faith in God, came to the realization that the message that Jones and Waggoner brought in 1888 was the "spark" that had been missing in their lives. Thousands began to see this marvelous news as GLAD TIDINGS for dry, thirsty souls. Thus, we are also known as "1888 Glad Tidings."
Our board of directors include pastors, physicians, teachers, business people, and laypersons who are very active in their local home churches. Because our membership comprises persons from across the United States, annual meetings are still scheduled where we can study, fellowship, and share this message. However, because of the internet, we are now able to share and study using email and website postings. We look forward to further growth in understanding and appreciation of this marvelous message.
