1923290638Zarephath New Jersey 1923. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good binding. A book of poetry by the first female bishop in the United States and founder of the racist Methodist sect the Pillar of Fire Church. Under Alma White’s direction in the 1920’s and 30’s the Pillar of Fire Church formed a close public bond with the KKK with the aim to liberate white Protestant women while also oppressing religious and racial minorities even regularly hosting cross burning ceremonies with the Klan on Pillar of Fire properties and giving speeches at Klan events promoting white supremacy. The introduction to this volume is quite bizarre as the author focuses on her husband’s conversion to the “unscriptural and Satanic†“new cult†of the Pentecostals and their subsequent estrangement. This long-form poem in rhyming iambic pentameter details their breakup in about 55 pages of text with small text illustrations plates reproducing hymns written by the author and a section of reproduced correspondence between the two at the rear. Truly a messy breakup. Red cloth with gilt lettering. OCLC notes ten institutional holdings. Very Good binding. unknown

Very Good/No Dust Jacket. <br /> <br /> A radical 1915 manifesto on religious vegetarianism by the first female Bishop in the U.S.-the controversial founder of the Pillar of Fire sect. Published at the church's Zarephath headquarters this treatise argues that 'physical purity' is a divine requirement showcasing the early ethical frameworks of a leader who would later become a notorious apologist for the Ku Klux Klan.<br /> <br /> KEY FEATURES <br /> Visuals: Illustrated with full-page drawings and 10 pages of advertisements featuring photographs of the Pillar of Fire training sites and church publications. <br /> Binding: Original maroon cloth with stamped silver gilt titles. <br /> Content: A foundational text of the Pillar of Fire Church outlining an ethical and spiritual framework for a meat-free lifestyle. <br /> Historical Context: While advocating for women's equality and health reform White remains one of the most controversial figures in American religion due to her later vocal support of the Ku Klux Klan. <br /> Imprint: The Pentecostal Union later Pillar of Fire Zarephath NJ. <br /> Specs: 7.5 inches tall / 213 10 pages.<br /> <br /> CONDITION: Very Good -- Bindings are tight and square. Text is clean with light even age-toning. Minimal shelf handling wear. Previous owner's name stamp on the front paste-down. Silver stamping remains relatively bright against the maroon cloth. <p data-path-to-node="5">HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE -- Alma Bridwell White was a pioneer of the "Holiness Movement" and remains the first woman consecrated as a bishop in the United States. Her leadership of the Pillar of Fire Church in Zarephath New Jersey represented a radical departure from mainstream Methodism focusing on rigorous lifestyle restrictions including the vegetarianism detailed in this 1915 work.</p> <br /> <p data-path-to-node="6">White's legacy is deeply polarized. While 'Why I Do Not Eat Meat' showcases her progressive views on animal ethics and women's health it was written just years before she became a leading religious apologist for the Ku Klux Klan. This work is a vital artifact for the study of early 20th-century "fringe" religious movements and the often-contradictory intersection of social reform vegetarianism/feminism and nativist ideologies in American history.</p> <br /> <p data-path-to-node="7">SUBJECTS: Alma White Pillar of Fire Church Vegetarianism Animal Ethics Women in Religion New Jersey History Holiness Movement Religious Extremism Religious History Health & Wellness Social Reform.</p> The Pentecostal Union unknown
