The Christadelphian
The Christadelphian is a Bible magazine published monthly by the Christadelphians. It claims to be 'A magazine dedicated wholly to the hope of Israel' and, according to the magazine website, it 'reflects the teachings, beliefs and activities of the Christadelphians'.[1]
The Christadelphian magazine started life as The Ambassador of the Coming Age in 1864, edited by Robert Roberts. It ran as The Ambassador of the Coming Age until 1869, when the name was changed to The Christadelphian.[2]
The magazine contains a wide variety of articles, including exhortations from Breaking of Bread services, studies of Biblical characters, articles on Christian living, reviews of Bible related books/DVDs/etc., and comment on relevant current events in relation to Bible prophecy. Items for publication are produced by potentially any Christadelphian, pending the editorial process.
The publisher of the magazine is The Christadelphian Magazine and Publishing Association (CMPA). All members of the committee are active members of Christadelphian congregations in the UK subscribing to the Birmingham Amended Statement of Faith (BASF).
Subscriptions and previews of the magazine are available on The Christadelphian website.
Back issues (from 1864-2000) are also available from the CMPA on CD-ROM, and an audio edition of The Christadelphian (2006 onwards) is available on cassette, audio and MP3 CD. Ordering information is on The Christadelphian website.
