J. O. CORLISS

By J. O. Corliss

I AM greatly delighted with the book, “The Great Empires of Prophecy,” by A. T. Jones. To my mind it is a work which has been long needed by our people, because it sets forth in the clearest way those parts of secular history which run parallel with the prophetic empires of Daniel’s visions, and so connects one with the other as to make the subject plain to the humblest mind. What a person would ordinarily have to search a score of ancient histories for is here set in its proper place, and made to add its testimony to the truth of God’s word in prophecy. No minister should be without the book, and no family of Seventh-day Adventists can afford to lose the instruction it contains, if they would stand firmly in the truth through the crisis which is just before all.
