John Harden Allen ( 1847 - May 14, 1930 )〔〔Michael Barkun, ''Religion and the Racist Right: The Origins of the Christian Identity Movement'', (1994), pg. 20.〕 was an American minister. He was associated with the Church of God (Holiness), and is also heavily associated with British Israelism. He came from Illinois, later moving to Missouri in 1879. Originally a pastor in the Methodist Episcopal Church, he later became a pastor in the Wesleyan Methodist Church in California. He was one of the co-founders of the Church of God (Holiness) in 1883.〔Charles Edwin Jones, "Anti-ordanance: A Proto-Pentecostal Phenomenon?" *()〕 He “evangelized throughout the West and eventually moved to Pasadena, California, where he died”.〔Barkun, pg. 20.〕 Around 1917 he produced a publication entitled ''Stone Kingdom Herald''.〔Jones, footnote 16.〕 ==''Judah's Sceptre and Joseph's Birthright'' ( 1902 )== Allen is best known for his book titled ''Judah's Sceptre and Joseph's Birthright'', which many have claimed formed the foundation for the teachings on British-Israelism of Herbert W. Armstrong.〔(Ambassador Report 15, March 31, 1981, "Armstrong's Doctrines Unique?" * )〕〔Ralph G. Orr, "How Anglo-Israelism Entered Seventh-day Churches of God a history of the doctrine from John Wilson to Joseph W. Tkach", revised April 1999, ()〕〔Gavin Rumney, Ambassador Watch, "Plagiarism, Flurry and Fraulein Kraus", January 14, 2007, ().〕 While the works of Allen and Armstrong are by no means identical, with Allen's work being much earlier, much longer and in hard-back book format, the core of Allen's work does appear to have served as inspiration for Armstrong, and Allen's book was not unknown to Armstrong's students at Ambassador College. There are many similarities between the two works, and in some places they are nearly word-for-word the same.〔(Armstrong Plagiarism Research )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「J. H.
