According to these, empires will fall, the "Beast" will be destroyed and Christ will rule a new Jerusalem. With an introduction by Will Self.

Reprint of the original, first published in 1843.

Excerpt from The Double Witness of the Church The writer cannot expect, in bringing forward so many disputed points, but that his readers will take exception to some of his statements. He trusts, however, that the views advanced will be found to be in accordance with the teaching of the great body of divines of the Church of England. In the old path which they marked out, we should all endeavor to walk. And the caution at this time is particularly necessary. The revival of an attention to Church principles which has lately taken place, will in some cases drive the unstable and the imaginative to an extreme bordering on Romanism. This danger, therefore, we must shun, seeking with care the well defined line which separates Catholic truths from Roman fallacies. And if these Lectures shall aid any inquirer in forming his Opinions, and avoiding the errors by which we are surrounded, the writer will feel that his labor has not been in vain.
