Abstract

L'introduction de trois pages indique que, si les Témoins se défendent de faire partie de "Babylone la Grande", ils proviennent bien d'une grande lignée religieuse : ils sont un rejeton du mouvement initié par Charles Taze Russell, des Étudiants de la Bible, qui s'inspirait des doctrines adventistes, courant ayant lui-même vu le jour sous l'impulsion de William Miller, un baptiste qui ne raviva le millénarisme au sein du christianisme. L'auteur identifie Joseph Rutherford, successeur de Russell à la présidence de la Société Watch Tower, au véritable fondateur des Témoins.Le livre se divise en plusieurs chapitres qui correspondent au plan de tous autres livres de la collection "Fils d'Abraham". La premier chapitre aborde l'histoire du mouvement en retraçant son évolution depuis l'attente du retour du Christ par les millérites en 1844 jusqu'à la fin des années 1980; il montre les évolutions successives du mouvement, du prophétisme de Russell en passant par la crise de succession et les dissidences, pour finalement aboutir à une secte routinisée et de plus en plus structurée, et évoque la crise post-1975. Le second chapitre est consacrée à la doctrine, soulignant la marque millénariste du groupe, son mode d'interprétation de la Bible, son rejet de la Trinité, la domination du monde par Satan, les dates prophétiques et l'eschatologie.Le troisième chapitre consacré à l'anthologie reproduit des passages tirés de textes des influences doctrinales de Russell (William Miller, George Storrs, Jonas Wendell, Nelson Barbour), de ses premiers collaborateurs (Albert Jones, John Paton), de Russell lui-même, de l'oraison funèbre qui eut lieu à sa mort, de Rutherford, et des ouvrages ultérieurement édités par la Watch Tower. Ces citations sont intéressantes car elles sont généralement méconnues du grand public et des adeptes, et permettent de souligner l'évolution de la doctrine au fil des années tout en indiquant la permanence des attentes millénaristes, fournissant les justifications théoriques de certaines règles du mouvement.Le quatrième chapitre, assez court — et pour cause: il n'y a pas grand chose à dire... —, met en valeur le désintérêt du mouvement pour toute forme artistique. Un cinquième s'intéresse à la vie spirituelle, montrant comment le petit groupe mystique des premiers temps s'est totalement muté en une organisation totalement orientée sur le prosélytisme sous Rutherford. Un sixième chapitre se penche sur le profil sociologique du groupe, étudiant les canaux de conversion, le type de personnes attirées, le rapport au monde, les facteurs de cohésion du groupe, la répartition des adeptes dans le monde et l'efficacité du prosélytisme. Enfin, un septième chapitre aborde l'organisation, présentée comme pyramidale, et le financement.La bibliographie, très abondante, regroupe des publications provenant tant des Étudiants de la Bible, des Témoins de Jéhovah, de leurs mouvements schismatiques, de leurs critiques et des chercheurs. L'annexe se compose de schémas permettant de visualiser la place des Étudiants de la Bible par rapport à l'adventisme ainsi que les schismes du mouvement, de cartes indiquant la répartition des adeptes par pays, de statistiques sur l'évolution des effectifs dans sa globalité et par pays. Enfin, après la table des matières, quelques photos et desseins, dont plusieurs illustrations tirées des publications, sont reproduits

Abstract

Thus saith Jesus Christ, even the ruler over all, who hath now sent you his word of judging and cleansing power, who now declareth judgment upon present Judge and law officials of present persecution against my Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints; to know I am soon to judge all in government positions of unrighteous prosecution against my people, to show my will concerning present court persecuting power; which judge is now to be of my holy judging upon her and others who have mocked my holy religious and pure holy law of celestial plural marriage in open court: let all such proceedings cease now! - Introduction.

Abstract

Will Mormonism be the next world faith, one that will rival Catholicism, Islam, and other major religions in terms of numbers and global appeal? This was the question Rodney Stark addressed in his much-discussed and much-debated article, "The Rise of a New World Faith" (1984), one of several essays on Mormonism included in this new collection. Examining the religion's growing appeal, Rodney Stark concluded that Mormons could number 267 million members by 2080. In what would become known as "the Stark argument," Stark suggested that the Mormon Church offered contemporary sociologists and historians of religion an opportunity to observe a rare event: the birth of a new world religion.In the years following that article, Stark has become one of the foremost scholars of Mormonism and the sociology of religion. This new work, the first to collect his influential writings on the Mormon Church, includes previously published essays, revised and rewritten for this volume. His work sheds light on both the growth of Mormonism and on how and why certain religions continue to grow while others fade away. Stark examines the reasons behind the spread of Mormonism, exploring such factors as cultural continuity with the faiths from which it seeks converts, a volunteer missionary force, and birth rates. He explains why a demanding faith like Mormonism has such broad appeal in today's world and considers the importance of social networks in finding new converts. Stark's work also presents groundbreaking perspectives on larger issues in the study of religion, including the nature of revelation and the reasons for religious growth in an age of modernization and secularization.

Abstract

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is one of the fastest growing religious movements in the world. It is highly visible, with a massive missionary program, yet it remains a mystery in terms of its core beliefs and theological structure. This 2003 book provides an introduction to the basic history, doctrines and practices of The LDS - the 'Mormon' Church. Written by a non-Mormon it neither seeks to prove or disprove the truthfulness of the religious claims of that faith but rather to describe them in ways that non-Mormons can understand. Particular emphasis is given to sacred texts and prophecies as well as to the crucial Temple rituals of endowments, marriage and baptism for the dead, through which human beings may achieve their divine potential. This rich comparative study offers an understanding of Mormon theology and ideas of humanity.

Abstract

Brigham Young was a rough-hewn craftsman from New York whose impoverished and obscure life was electrified by the Mormon faith. He trudged around the United States and England to gain converts for Mormonism, spoke in spiritual tongues, married more than fifty women, and eventually transformed a barren desert into his vision of the Kingdom of God. While previous accounts of his life have been distorted by hagiography or polemical exposé, John Turner provides a fully realized portrait of a colossal figure in American religion, politics, and westward expansion. After the 1844 murder of Mormon founder Joseph Smith, Young gathered those Latter-day Saints who would follow him and led them over the Rocky Mountains. In Utah, he styled himself after the patriarchs, judges, and prophets of ancient Israel. As charismatic as he was autocratic, he was viewed by his followers as an indispensable protector and by his opponents as a theocratic, treasonous heretic. Under his fiery tutelage, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints defended plural marriage, restricted the place of African Americans within the church, fought the U.S. Army in 1857, and obstructed federal efforts to prosecute perpetrators of the Mountain Meadows Massacre. At the same time, Young's tenacity and faith brought tens of thousands of Mormons to the American West, imbued their everyday lives with sacred purpose, and sustained his church against adversity. Turner reveals the complexity of this spiritual prophet, whose commitment made a deep imprint on his church and the American Mountain West.
