Addresses on "The Speedy Personal Comint; of the Lord Jesus Christ from Heaven, and the Resurrection and Translation of a First-Fruits to meet Him, as declared by the" Spirit of Prophecy." Eighteen hundred years have rolled away since Our Lord ascended into heaven, and the Angels declared to His Disciples that "this same Jesus, which is taken from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen Him go into heaven." And now the signs of "the last days" are plainly manifest. Knowledge is increasing. Evil men and seducers arc waxing worse and worse. Scoffers have arisen, walking after their own lusts, and saying: '' Where is the promise of His coming ?" There is a great apostacy from the faith, Sound doctrine is not endured. Men are lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God. Iniquity abounds, and the love of many is waxing cold. Men's hearts are failing them for fear; the sea and the waves—the peoples and the nationsare roaring; and the powors of heaven—the Church-are shaken, When " war on God and on religion becomes fiercer every day;" when the authenicity of the Sacred Scriptures is boldly Ved; when "the whole drift of Eurothought is to exclude the living God the material universe;" when "bosdeeper, sterner, and more systematic than that which terrified our fathers in the most volcanicand tempestuous hours of the French Revolution;" when the real issue of the battle now raging is—"ls Christendom to believe any longer in Christ, or no?" when these are the terrible evils which face us in all directions—who can fail to perceive that " the Church is passing through one of the most violent and most decisive trials of her existence on this earth," and that ws are fast approaching that time so sorrowfully anticipated by our Lord—''When the Son of Man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?" In the hope of this Second Coming of our Lord, we invite your attention to these most solemn and holy matters; praying that you may discern this time of visitation, and be kept from the power and snares of Antichrist, and ' be counted worthy to escape all those tbhgs which shall come to pass, and to stand before the Sou of Man." Therefore, be ye also ready: for in such an hour as YE THINK NUT, the Son of Man cometh,"
