ADVENTISTS, SECOND

This article appears in Volume V01, Page 235 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: ADA-AIZ
ADVENTISTS, SECOND , members of religious bodies whose distinctive feature is a belief in the imminent
physical
  return of Jesus Christ. The first to
bear
  the name were the followers of William Miller, and adherents have always been more numerous in America than in Europe. There is a
body
  of Seventh Day Adventists who observe the old
Sabbath
  (Saturday) rather than the
Christian
  Sunday. They counsel abstemious habits, but set no time for the coming of Christ, and so are spared the perpetual disappointments that overtake the
ordinary
  adventist. They have some 400 ministers and 6o,000 members.
