A. Jan Marcussen is a Seventh-day Adventist and minister, best known for his book ''National Sunday Law''.
== Biography ==
Marcussen is an American, a 5th generation Seventh-day Adventist and was ordained as a minister in 1982. He still is a Seventh-Day Adventist minister. He is the author of several books including ''Two Months to Live'' which relates the real-life stories of people who have overcome cancer, ''Cousin Henry Potter '', an adventure, and a book on marital happiness.
Marcussen is best known for his very controversial 1983 book ''National Sunday Law'', which has been described as a "condensed version" of Ellen G. White's view in ''The Great Controversy''. 36.8 million copies have been distributed in 63 languages.〔''Millennium, Messiahs, and Mayhem: Contemporary Apocalyptic Movements'' by Thomas Robbins and Susan J. Palmer. 1997; p219〕 The book gives an interpretation of the prophecies of the biblical books of Daniel and Revelation, and focuses particularly on the Three Angels' Messages of Revelation chapter fourteen.
He publishes a free newsletter twice a month which highlights advancements in Sunday exaltation. He is noted for leading a campaign against future national legislation enforcing Sunday as a national day of rest and worship in the USA. He has been referenced in a recent article by WorldNetDaily on the debate over the seventh or first day of week as Biblical Sabbath for Christians. He has offered up to one million dollars to anyone who can offer clear, scriptural proof of a change of Sabbath from the seventh day to the first day of the week, which WorldNetDaily featured in another article. In a third WorldNetDaily article, he is noted in regards to a controversial billboard which warns of the identity of the Antichrist as the papacy, an allegation that Marcussen discusses in his book, ''National Sunday Law'', by drawing reference to a numerological connection between the Pope's title ''Vicarius Filii Dei'' ("Vicar of the Son of God") and the number 666. Catholic concerns over mass mailing of Marcussen's book have appeared in an article by ''The Catholic Herald'', a British Catholic newspaper. The 40 Million Man March is the name given by Marcussen to his project to mass mail National Sunday Law books to every major U.S. city, one by one, in an effort to give the Three Angels' Messages. As of April 2008, he is working to bulk mail Pittsburgh. Marcussen's book made the Catholic League's 2001 Report on Anti-Catholicism for mass mailing Fresno, CA.〔http://www.catholicleague.org/miscellaneous-10/〕
