John Alexander Dowie and the Christian Apostolic Church in Zion (1906) is a historical account of the life and work of John Alexander Dowie, a prominent religious leader in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Written by author Rolvix Harlan, the book explores Dowie's early life and conversion to Christianity, his establishment of the Christian Catholic Church and later the Christian Apostolic Church in Zion, and his controversial teachings and practices.The book delves into Dowie's beliefs in divine healing, his emphasis on the importance of physical health and hygiene, and his rejection of traditional medicine and doctors. It also examines his efforts to establish a utopian community in Zion, Illinois, where his followers could live and worship together in harmony.Harlan's book provides a detailed and nuanced portrait of Dowie, highlighting both his successes and failures as a religious leader. It also offers insights into the broader social and cultural context of the time, including the rise of the Pentecostal movement and the challenges faced by religious minorities in America.Overall, John Alexander Dowie and the Christian Apostolic Church in Zion (1906) is an important work of religious history that sheds light on a fascinating and often overlooked chapter in American religious history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
