Abstract

The General Conference session in Minneapolis in 1888 stands as a paradigm for many other struggles in the history of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. We may perceive the clash between the young Signs of the Times editor, Ellet J. Waggoner, and General Conference president George I. Butler over the nature of the law in Galatians 3:24, 25 as a play- book of human personalities, a study guide for conflict resolution, and a primer on various views of salvation. The dynamics of that conflict repeat- edly play out today.
