A Vindication
of the Divine Character and Government:
Showing, by a Recognition and Harmonizing
of all the Scriptures, that the Permission of
Evil, Past and Present, is Educational and Preparatory

THE GOLDEN AGE OF PROPHECY
In Which All the Families of the Earth Will
Be Blessed with a Full Knowledge of God and a
Full Opportunity for Attaining Everlasting Life

IN THE INTEREST OF
HIS CONSECRATED SAINTS,
WAITING FOR THE ADOPTION,
--AND

"ALL THAT IN EVERY PLACE CALL UPON THE LORD,"
"THE HOUSEHOLD OF FAITH,"

"To
make all see what is the fellowship of the mystery which from
the beginning
of the world hath been hid in God." "Wherein He hath abounded
toward
us in all wisdom and prudence, having made known unto us the
mystery of His will, according to His good pleasure which
He hath purposed in Himself; that in the dispen-
sation of the fulness of the times He
might gather together in one all
things, under Christ."
Eph.
3:4,5,9; 1:8-10

"Studies In The Scriptures"
THE
WEB STEWARD'S FOREWORD
The Studies
in the Scriptures was originally written over a century ago. To
this day it remains unique among Christian literature in its approach
to understanding mankind's relationship to his Creator in the
following ways:
It is a
factual presentation derived from the Scriptures, rather than
philosophical theory.
It examines
all of the Scriptures bearing on a subject and reaches harmonious
conclusions.
It gives
Scriptural references and encourages the reader to verify every
point presented.
It reveals
God's purposes toward mankind from Creation to the present and
into the future.
It manifests
the consistency of God's character attributes: Love, Wisdom,
Justice, Power.
Sincerely,
The Bible
