Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Third Period, or the Apocalypse Explained
I have written these plain truths for plain people. May the Master sanctify them to the enlargement of many a life, to the higher aspiration of many a spirit, and to the divine expansion of many a soul that shall more intelligently walk with God! To the critic I can only say, Do your worst, and let the best come of it. You have your office and rela tion to the economy of things. In the country where I live we have a vulture known as the turkey buzzard; his taste is exclusively for carrion; therefore he picks the eyes out of the young and weakly lambs that he may reduce them to the level of his taste, and in so doing unwittingly subserves that great and easily discerned principle in the divine economy, the survival of the fittest. Esther said, and so can I, ifi perish, I perish. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
