"The Speedy Personal Coming 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 lolled away 'since Our Lord ascended into heaven, and the Angels declared to His Disciples that "this same Jesus, which is taken from yon 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 comiug ?" There is a great apostacy from the faith, Sound doctrine is not endured, Men are lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God.

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 things which shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man." Therefore, bo ye also ready: for in. such an-hour as YE THINE NOT, the Son of Man cometh,"
