Excerpt from Prophecy, the War, and the Near East This book goes forth with the earnest prayer that it may stimulate many to search the Scriptures more earnestly, and to watch the signs of the times more carefully, in view Of the great purpose which god is working out in the world today. It is largely in response to the numerous requests which I have received from Christian friends in many directions, that I have humbly endeavoured to outline the difficult though important subject Of Prophecy. And in SO doing I have been fully aware that there are several systems of interpretation which for long centuries have commended themselves to Bible students. But the larger the tree the greater the number of branches, and the fact that there are many interpretations by no means destroys the truth of Prophecy, nor does it militate against our convictions in adopting any one of them.
