Second Advent Way Marks and High Heaps : A Connected View of the Fulfilment of Prophecy by God’s Peculiar People from the Year 1840 to 1847

The High Heaps and Way-marks are designed to show where you have been. In the Bible the purpose of a high heap can also be to commemorate an event (Jacob and Laban for example). So the title is a reference to the object of this book published for the first time in 1847: showing how Seventh-day Adventists have come to this point in order not to forget their past history and the way God led them. The author takes the arguments used against the SDA movement especially those used by the former Advent believers who rejected their experience in the 1843/1844 movement. Here are his own words explaining the object of this book:The design of the author of the following pages is to strengthen and encourage the honest hearted humble people of God that have been and still are willing to keep the COMMANDMENTS of God and the testimony of Jesus to hold on to their past experience in the connected chain of wonderful events and fulfilment of prophecy which have been developed during the last seven years. “Prove all things and hold fast that which is good.”
