In 1831 he began to lecture, arguing that the " two thousand three See also:hundred days " of See also:Daniel viii. 14 meant 2300 years, and that these years began with See also:Ezra's going up to See also:Jerusalem in 457 B.C., and therefore came to an end in 1843, and urging his hearers to make ready for the final coming of See also:Christ in that See also:year. To his many followers, after the year 1843 had passed, he proclaimed that 1844 was the year, that his See also:error was due to following See also:Hebrew instead of See also:Roman See also:chronology, and that the 22nd of See also:October was to be the See also:day.

The Adventists or Millerites, who were formed into a single See also:body in a See also:convention called by him in See also:April 1845, have since separated into several sects: the Evangelical Adventists (1147 in the See also:United States in 1908), who believe in 'See also:everlasting See also:punishment; the Seventh Day Adventists (64,332), who observe the seventh day, and practise the See also:sacrament of See also:foot-washing; the See also:Advent Christians (26,500), the Churches of See also:God in Jesus Christ '(2872), and the See also:Life and Advent See also:Union (3800). Their See also:total number in the United States in 1908 was about 99,300.
