Dr. John Thomas was a British religious leader and founder of the Christadelphians. He was a dedicated Bible expositor, and author of Elpis Israel, the first major writing to bring to light the subject of "God Manifestation" and the hope of Israel for future generations. In this work, he was able to draw upon his understanding of Biblical Prophecy to predict the return of Israel in the near future, which came to pass in 1948, with the establishment of the state of Israel. Thomas has often been branded as a false teacher and a heretic by fundamentalist Christians due to his denial of the Christian doctrines regarding the Trinity, the personhood of the Devil, the existence of demons, and various other core foundational doctrines of the Christian faith.

The Unamended Christadelphians are a "fellowship" within the broader Christadelphian movement worldwide, found only in the United States and Canada. They are, like all Christadelphians, millennialist and non-Trinitarian. The term Unamended Christadelphians is not the formal name of this community but is used informally to identify the grouping since a statement of faith traditionally used by many in this community is the "Unamended Statement of Faith". Similarly, most of the much larger grouping of Amended Christadelphians traditionally use a statement of faith that has been amended and therefore, in North America is known by the prefix "Amended". Nevertheless, Christadelphians worldwide and both Amended and Unamended Christadelphians in North America share fundamentally the same doctrines, with a few exceptions.

When his appeals to English brethren went unheeded, he became the most prominent of the brethren who avoided these divisive factions, and later became known as Unamended Christadelphians because they never adopted a particular amendment to the Christadelphian statement of faith.
