Excerpt from An Inquiry Into the Meaning of the Prophecies: Relating to the Second Advent of Our Lord Jesus Christ: In a Course of Lectures, Delivered in St. Peter's Church, BaltimoreThe following Lectures, delivered in the ordinary course of parochial instructions, are now published to gratify the earnest desire of many who heard them, and in compliance with the recommendation of some valued clerical friends, whose advice was solicited.The views herein advocated are the same which were maintained by many of the earliest Fathers, and by some of the Reformers, and which have found powerful support in the writings of the learned and pious Mede in the 17th century, and in those of Bickersteth, McNeile, Melvill, Dodsworth, Noel, and other distinguished divines of the Church of England in our own day. The object of the Author will be gained, if this humble inquiry shall have any influence in directing the attention of his clerical brethren to an important, but, it is to be feared, too much neglected branch of Biblical investigation, or in awakening the minds of Christian people to a livelier faith in, and a more diligent preparation for, the coming and kingdom of our Lord.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
