THE EDITOR
TO HIS FRIENDS
While the Apostle's message was not "yea and nay", the arrangements which
he made, and the journeys he planned were not so fixed (II Cor. 1: 17-19). They
were always liable to alteration as circumstances indicated or the will of the Lord
was made known.
In the January number of this magazine, we told our friends that we did not
contemplate entering into discussion concerning the Millennium, feeling that our
limited space was all too short for the making known of the glory of our high
calling. However, we have (in the spirits of II Cor. 1: 17) been obliged to change
our plans. We have met enough undigested exposition as to demand some
positive presentation of the truth. We are moved to take up the question of the
Pre-Millennial kingdom, because we see only too clearly that there will be one,
and it is outlined in Rev. 13:-19:, but it is the kingdom of the Anti-christian
Beast! It is a horrible thing to contemplate, that an earnest believer might
unconsciously be preparing those who accept his teaching, to receive the false for
the true, for we are warned that the deception will be such that the very elect
would be deceived apart from Divine interposition.
