Excerpt from The Coming Crisis of the World, or the Great Battle and the Golden Age: The Signs of the Times Indicating the Approach of the Great Crisis and the Duty of the Church It seems to the writer much to be deplored that that happy age, -that golden age of Christianity, on which prophets have loved to dwell, and sacred poets to sing, and the great teach ers in Israel to expatiate, and of which saints of all ages have delighted to talk and write, to hope and pray, should, in some quarters, be'so treated as to prejudice the minds of pious, sober men against the discussion of it. Because it has been made the theme of strange speculations and wild vagaries, it is not the less a theme suited to raise the hopes, and wing the faith, and fill with holy joy the hearts of all God's people. Discard the idea of a yet to come golden age of the Church, and how can we vin dicate the ways of God in the dispensations of his grace among men? Only the scanty first fruits shall be gathered in during the present dispensation. During these times of the Gentiles.
