I just told you how Adventists handled it she their belief that the Second Coming failed to come to fruition. They didn’t doggedly stick with a false doctrine and move the date up to a new time. They went back to their Bibles to go over everything and see what went wrong. They believe their mistake was that the cleansing of the temple was not earth but a Heavenly sanctuary instead.
Would it be a bad time to bring up the name of Hal Lindsay? :)
What denomination did Hal Lindsey found? I vaguely remember some guy by that name having a show on T.V.
