Some 90 plus messages and special reports from a preseason Ministerial Institute and the Session proper—over 450,000 words. THE THIRTIETH session of the Seventh-day Adventist General Conference was held at Battle Creek, Michigan over a four and one-half week period from January 27 through March 6, 1893. A Ministerial Institute occupied the first three weeks, with the session proper beginning on Friday, February 17. During these two events, some 90 plus messages were published. They are all reproduced in this present publication, along with a selected number of reports—over 450,000 words. This General Conference Session, with its special Ministerial Institute, was removed only five years from the controversial 1888 Session in Minneapolis. That earlier session was noteworthy for the strong emphasis on righteousness by faith. The servant of the Lord made it clear that God wanted to, and had started to, pour out the Latter Rain upon His people. In 1896, three years after this present GC Session, Ellen White wrote that the light of the loud cry that was to have lightened the whole earth was resisted and rejected by us in 1888. See Selected Messages, book 1, 234–235. These troubling events still weighed heavily on the minds of many of the presenters at this present session. Several of them made reference to their concerns. In one of the presentations by W. W. Prescott of a ten part series on “The Promise of the Holy Spirit,” he stated in an encouraging manner, the following: “Now when I think that for four years we have been in the time of the latter rain, and that God has wanted to pour out his Spirit that these gifts might be restored, that his work might go with power; and that he wishes us to join gladly in the work and cooperate with him with the whole heart, it occurs to me that we have been the hands that have been holding on and the feet that wouldn’t go; and rather than tear the whole body to pieces the body has waited. “So we are told that we are years behind; and if some of the hands had not held on, and some of the feet had not refused to go, so that the body could not move without tearing it to pieces, the body would have gone right along these four years. But . . . the Lord in great mercy has let the body wait, so that we should not be torn out and be left by the wayside. But the body is going on now; and I say, Let every hand, and every foot, and every member be ready to go, that the body be not torn asunder. That is what the Lord wants to do, and he is going to do it now: and he has warned us and told us of it for four years.” The major presenters for the Session and preceding Institute were as follows: 1. J. H. Durland, two presentations on “Fellowship with Christ,” and a Sabbath Sermon. 2. S. N. Haskell, five lessons on “The Study of the Bible,” and six on “Missions and Missionary Work.” 3. A T. Jones, twenty-four presentations on “The Third Angel’s Message.” 4. J. N. Loughborough, five lessons on “The Study of the Testimonies.” 5. O. A Olsen, three presentations on “The Ministry.” 6. W. W. Prescott, twelve presentations on “The Promise of the Holy Spirit.” 7. R. C. Porter, six presentations on “The Mind of Christ.” 8. R. A Underwood, six lessons on “The Recognition of Christ’s Ownership and Our Redemption.” 9. Dr. J. H. Kellogg, eight presentations on the Medical Missionary Work. Included from the General Conference Bulletins in this present volume are two special communications from Ellen White in Australia, and a letter from E. J. Waggoner from his post in London, England. There are also a number of other special reports included here. We will be blessed, and encouraged as we study the messages of these faithful leaders of bygone days. These leaders are of our past, but their messages are even more relevant today as we search our lives and hearts for anything and everything that lies between us and that long looked-for latter rain and the finishing of God’s work in our hearts and the world at large.

The Consecrated Way to Christian Perfection, written by A. T. Jones, is an exposition of the work of Christ as our High Priest as relating to the perfection of Christian character. A. T. Jones and E. J. Waggoner presented this message to the 1888 Minneapolis General Conference Session of Seventh-day Adventists. Their message met resistance from leaders such as G. I. Butler, Uriah Smith and others. The session discussed crucial theological issues such as the meaning of "righteousness by faith", and the nature of the Godhead, and the relationship between law and grace. Ellen White supported Waggoner’s Christ centered view on justification by faith and their refutation of Arianism, and later wrote that she had been teaching for "forty-five years" this same message as Jones and Waggoner presented at that session.
