In taking up the subject of prophecy, however simply, one feels a certain amount of trepidation for two reasons. In the first place, dogmatic assertions have been made in the past which subsequent eve…
In the Epistle to the Hebrews the writer tells us that God spoke to the fathers in the prophets. (Note ‘ in,’ and not ‘ by ‘ – Thomas Aquinas wrote, “… because the prophets did not them­selves speak f…
We have seen in our last paper that the Old Testament prophets looked forward to the advent of the Messiah. Inspired by the Spirit of God, they wrote words that filled the devout Israelite with an int…
I was once asked to what passage in the New Testa-ment I would turn to learn about the second coming of the Lord. I forget what answer I gave then, but, if I were asked the question again, the answer …
We have in past papers sketched in outline the prophetic vision of the Old Testament and seen its fulfilment in Christ. We have heard and believed the words of our Lord, saying, “ I will come again.” …

The end of the Millennium will be marked by a renewal of Satanic activity which will lead to the final great rebellion of the nations of the earth. Satan will then meet his doom, being cast into the l…
