The Christadelphians () or Christadelphianism are a restorationist and millenarian Christian group who hold a view of biblical unitarianism. There are approximately 50,000 Christadelphians in around 120 countries. The movement developed in the United Kingdom and North America in the 19th century around the teachings of John Thomas, who coined the name ''Christadelphian''"The Christadelphians, or brethren in Christ ...

Bible Companion
The ''Bible Companion'' (or Bible Reading Planner) is a guide developed by the Christadelphians to aid reading the Bible. It was first produced by Robert Roberts when he was 14 years of age, in about 1853, and revised by him over a number of years into its current format. Background Christadelphians believe that reading the Bible is very important: they believe that it is "essential if one is to discover—and remember—God's revelation of Himself and His purpose"; citing Bible verses such as Psalm 119:105, they believe the Bible gives moral direction for the life of a Christian - thus the ''Bible Companion'' is designed to aid the Christian in their Bible reading to this end. The Bible Companion as a reading aid By following the ''Bible Companion'' the reader is led, in small portions, through the whole Bible in a year. The Old Testament is read once in the year, and the New Testament is read twice. The plan starts on January 1 in the Book of Genesis, Book of Psalms and Book of M ...

Robert Govett (14 February 1813, in Staines, Middlesex – 20 February 1901, in Norwich, Norfolk) was a British theologian and independent pastor of Surrey Chapel, Norwich, Norfolk, England.

Smith said about it: "One of the profoundest expositions of the book of Revelation that I know of is the work of Robert Govett. My own opinion is that he brings to his interpretation a more thorough knowledge of the Scriptures in their bearing on the last book of the Bible than any other writer of his generation."

Frank Jannaway
F. G. Jannaway (London 1859–1935) was an English Christadelphian writer on Jewish settlement in Palestine, and notable for his role in the conscientious objector tribunals of World War I. His reaction to controversy was to separate from others in the name of purity, and he was instrumental in the formation of minority factions, such as the Berean Christadelphians. However, this reasoning eventually caused him to separate even from his own brother, A.T. Jannaway. Frank George Jannaway was born in Kensington, Brompton on 17 October 1859. He was the seventh child and third son of William Jannaway (1814–86) and Caroline Amelia (née Wiltsheare) (1831-77). He became a Christadelphian following his two elder brothers William John (1847–1882) and Arthur Thomas Jannaway (1854–1938). Speaker and debater Jannaway gave regular public lectures at the ''South London Ecclesia'' first at Westminster, from 1882 then at Islington and Clapham, and was a notable debater. His debates were ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
