203: The Book of Jubilees: A fictional Jewish chronology of real world ...
It was likely inspired by the 70 weeks of Dan 9:24 which equals exactly 10 jubilees or 490 years.

206: Indwelling of the Holy Spirit
for Sunday morning: a. Jesus had the Holy Spirit without measure based upon John 3:34 of the KJV b. the Apostles had the Baptismal measure c. the Corinthians had the spiritual gifts miraculous measure d. and finally, the non-miraculous personal indwelling ordinary measure. 2. This was taught for over 100 years in the churches and has done great damage by falsely differentiating the baptism of the Holy Spirit as a special class of miraculous endowment limited to the apostles, when it really applies to any Christian who has any of the 9 supernatural gifts of the Holy Spirit. a. The false doctrine of the "measures of the Holy Spirit" is also the foundation upon which the false personal non-miraculous indwelling of the Holy Spirit rests. b.

209: Ellen G. White found guilty of plagiarism (copying)
Almost from the first time I heard of her, early in my teens, I became a devotee of Ellen G. White and her writings. I learned to type by copying from her book Messages to Young People. In high school and college, I often went from room to room in the dormitory, gathering Ellen White quotations from others to use in my preparations for becoming a minister in the Seventh-day Adventist Church. It was during those days that I conceived the idea of preparing an Adventist commentary by compiling from the writings of Ellen ...

210: The Apostolic Fathers believed in expedient, optional tradition
... The origin of Wednesday night, mid-week bible study, may have started with a single Christian setting aside that time for personal Bible study, worship and prayer. Others wanted to join him and in time a decision was made that a formal time would be set for all members in the local church. Unfortunately this good practice of spending extra Bible study time together as a church, may become an unwritten law and seen on the same level of authority as the first day (Sunday) communion worship services. Most expedient traditions are merely good optional choices, but we must always separate what God requires from the freedom God gives us to chose ... We love this statement by Tertullian because it proves our point that he used the Bible only to determine doctrine to the exclusion of oral tradition.

226: Hypochondriasis: A Practical Treatise, John Hill, 1766 AD
The finer spirits are wafted by the labour of the brain: the philosopher rises from his study more exhausted than the Peasant leaves his drudgery ... The first and lightest of the signs that shew this illness are a lowness of spirits, an inaptitude to motion ; a disrelish of amusements, a love of solitude and a habit of thinking, even on trifling subjects, with too much steadiness." Typical of the anti-Christian attitudes of John Monro and the institutional psychiatry of the day at Bedlam, Hill takes a pot shot at the clergy: ... For me, I should advise above all other things the study of nature. Let him begin with plants: he will here find a continual pleasure, and continual change; fertile of a thousand useful things; even of the utility we are seeking here. ... It is perhaps not without significance that the greatest poet of the Augustan age, Alexander Pope, thought it necessary as he lay on his deathbed in May 1744 to exclaim with his last breath, "I never was hippish in my whole life."17 ... ...
