Advent Tidende was founded in 1871 and published by Syvende-Dags Advent Trykkeri-Selskab until 1883 in Battle Creek, Michigan.[2] It was started by the Scandinavian Seventh-day Adventists, a Protestant Christian denomination, as a 21-page monthly publication.[3] The editor was John Gotlieb Matteson.[2] In the second year of its existence Advent Tidende was expanded, and its page number became thirty-two.[3] The successor of the magazine which was published on a monthly basis was Sandhedens Tidende.[2]

Several copies of Advent Tidende were sent to both Denmark and Norway from the USA.[3]
