	The End of the World--Gary E. Wait
		Gradually a pattern of prophetic fulfillment seemed to emerge, and Miller was startled to discover that according to his calculations, the culmination of all prophesy--the return of Christ and the end of history--was surprisingly near.
		Typified by fervent exhortations from the preachers, by excesses of emotionalism in preacher and audience alike, by the groans and writhing of the conscience- stricken, the shouts of the converted, and the throbbing hymns of the faithful, camp meetings were roundly condemned by the "respectable" churches of the day.
		Miller and his associates were widely satirized in the heavy-handed humor of the day.

	W. Collins Work in Progress
		William Miller and his followers used a prophetic interpretive method known as historicism: the coordination of all prophecy with specific historical events, in order to determine with precision the dates of fulfillment for future events prophesied but as yet not completed.
		Millerism evolved during the remainder of the century into a grouping of Adventist churches, the most successful of which has been the Seventh-day Adventists.
		Millerism and its historicist method of interpreting prophecy are strong icons of the American Baha'i identity.

	The Great Disappointment of 1844
		The name that became inextricably linked with the triumph of premillennialism was William Miller, a respectable farmer and keen amateur student of scripture living in northern New York State.
		William Miller was not the first student of scripture to set a near-term date for the Parousia.
		Miller was never the "prophet" of Millerism; his authority was arithmetic, not personal revelation.

	OLD 1843 LETTER MENTIONS MILLERISM, GREAT COMET, FUGITIVE SLAVES
		“William Miller was a prosperous farmer, a Baptist layman and amateur student of the Bible, living in northern New York, in the region of that state which has come to be known as the Burned-over district.
		By 1830, Miller became fully convinced that the date of the return of the Messiah could be known with precision.
		Later, he adjusted his calculations to conform to the "Jewish calendar", to finally arrive at the confidence that 1844 would be the last year of the present age and the beginning of the "seventh day of the creation".

	Arguing the Apocalypse
		William Miller was a respectable farmer in Upstate New York who came to believe, probably about 1830, that the Second Coming would occur around 1843.
		O'Leary is at pains to emphasize the differences between Millerism and the brand of apocalypticism that Hal Lindsey promoted in his fantastically popular books that began with "The Late, Great Planet Earth." Their scenarios were different, for one thing.
		Nonetheless, while Millerism was extinguished in a bit over a decade, the apocalyptic revival of which Lindsey was so conspicuous a part is not completely extinct, even after 30 years.

	EGW & Her Critics-A Sketch of Early Adventist History: Christian Resource Centre (Bermuda)
		We observed that Miller and most of the other leaders were the last to accept the distinctive tenet of the seventh-month movement; namely, that the 2300-day prophecy was to end October 22, 1844, and that the preaching of this specific date for the cleansing of the sanctuary constituted the true midnight cry.
		Miller is here referring to various views that began to be preached and published by different individuals in an attempt to find their way out of the great disappointment.
		Whether Miller and the large group of Adventists that he represented opened the door of mercy again to such outright blasphemers is not clear from the record, and is not relevant to this sketch.

	Millerism « Open Mind
		Miller’s statement represents an appallingly simplistic approach to temperature measurement, a lack of understanding of how it’s done and how well it’s done, and an utter ignorance of statistics.
		Miller was a terrible football announcer, perhaps one of his flaws was his block headedness when it came to statistics.
		But there are two important differences between my approach and Dennis Miller’s: first, I’m aware of the simplifications, and made them for the express purpose of making the post accessible to the lay reader; second, none of the simplifications I allowed affect the bottom line.

	History of Adventism by Walter Martin
		Miller was raised by a deeply religious mother, but despite her zeal for his conversion, Miller became a deist.
		William Miller, it should be noted, was never a Seventh-day Adventist and stated that he had "no confidence" in the "new theories" that emerged from the shambles of the Millerite movement.
		For William Miller the era of chronological speculation was over, and he died shortly after the fiasco, a broken and disillusioned man who was, nevertheless, honest and forthright when in error or when repudiating error.

	Adventist Review: What Is Adventist in Adventism?
		Miller, understanding the coming to the marriage to be the Second Advent, interpreted the closing of the door to be the ending of probation.
		Following Miller’s concordance approach to unlocking the meaning of Scripture, they concluded that the sanctuary to be cleansed in Daniel 8:14 was not the earth or the church, but the sanctuary in heaven, of which the earthly sanctuary had been a type or copy.
		He pictured the preaching of Miller’s judgment hour summons as fulfilling the first angel’s message (14:6, 7), the second (14:8) as being the summons to come out of those churches that did not accept the Bible truth presented by Millerism, and the third (14:9-11) as presenting the curse that befalls those who remain in Babylon.

		William Miller appeared in eastern Maine to apprise its inhabitants of the early coming of Jesus.
		But strange as it may seem, he found himself struggling in the current of Millerism and his home became the headquarters of its devotees where everything from cellar to attic, and in ell, shed and barn, was held in common.
		The tendency of this delusion to pauperism led to the adoption of legal measures by the municipal authorities, to rid the town of irresponsible leaders, from other towns.

	J'Accuse - miller.htm
		Miller was the founder of the Millerite Movement of the 1840s that looked for Christ's return about 1843-1844.
		But William Miller accepted prevailing popular views about the interpretation of prophecy using the year-day principle to arrive at significant dates in the Christian era, and thereby contravened the warnings of Christ in Acts 1:7 and Matthew 24:36.
		Anyone reading literature on Millerism is likely to conclude that Daniel 8:14 was Miller's only and main reason for expecting the parousia in the year 1843 and that he was interested primarily in the books of Daniel and Revelation.

	Millerite Insanity (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Brigham acknowledged that "for the most part" Millerites were "sincere and pious people." However, he believed that their teachings threatened the mental health not only of the present population but of generations yet to come, who, because of their ancestors’ errors, would enter the world predisposed to insanity.
		Despite a wealth of sources linking Millerism to insanity, it is impossible to estimate with any confidence the number of Americans who suffered mental breakdowns as a result of the Millerite excitement.
		Of this number, about 70 percent entered institutions in New England; over 20 percent went to asylums in New York, especially the state hospital in Utica, which apparently treated the largest number of Millerites in the country; the remaining 10 percent were scattered throughout a region stretching south to Virginia and west to Indiana.

		It began in Groton, Massachusetts, during the late 1840s when its leader, Benjamin Hall (1796-1879), was inspired by the teachings of William Miller (1782-1849), who used Biblical prophecies and arithmetical calculations to predict the second coming of Christ around 1843.
		The failure of this to happen marked the end of Millerism, but gave rise to the Seventh-day Adventist Church and to The Community of like-minded souls who emigrated to Wisconsin.
		Before Miller's prediction failed, a group of families and single adults tried to create God's paradise on earth west of Boston, to be ready for the Second Coming.

	Exercise A
		The Millerite movement–named after the itinerant lay preacher William Miller–had congealed around Miller's belief that Bible prophecy, correctly read, pointed to the occurrence of the Second Coming sometime between 21 March 1843 and 21 March 1844.
		Clergy from several denominations warned their congregations of Christ's soon appearing, lay preachers obtained prophetic charts and rented halls to preach the Advent Near, and small bands prayed for the conversion of friends and families.
		One of the immediate results of Millerism was a powerful "trans-church movement" that did not have to support "the burdens of buildings, bureaucracy or salaried clergy" (Harwood).

		Millerism and the Great Awakening the religious revival (when was the G.A. and the II G.A.)
		Between 1831 and 1844, William Miller – a Baptist preacher and former army captain in the War of 1812 – launched the “Great Second Advent Awakening.” Based on his study of the prophecy in the Book of Daniel (8:14), Miller calculated that Jesus would return to earth on October 22, 1844.
		When He did not appear, Miller’s followers experienced what is now called “The Great Disappointment.” Most of the thousands who had joined the movement left it in deep disillusionment, including George Rapp of Harmony, and many Shakers.
