âIn the Cult Kingdom: Mormonism, Eddyism, and Russellismâ explores three religious movements that emerged in the 19th century and are often categorized as cults. John Elward Brown examines the origins, beliefs, and practices of Mormonism (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints), Eddyism (Christian Science, founded by Mary Baker Eddy), and Russellism (the Bible Student movement, later known as Jehovah's Witnesses, associated with Charles Taze Russell). This book offers insights into the social and historical contexts that fostered the growth of these movements, their distinctive theologies, and the controversies they generated. A valuable resource for understanding alternative religions and their impact on society.
