Book Description
Excerpt from Report of the General Conference of Christians Expecting the Advent of Our Lord Jesus Christ: Held in Boston, Oct, 14, 15, 1840 This paper is designed to illustrate the predictions of the holy prophets, and of Jesus Christ, and his apostles; particularly in relation to the second advent of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the establishment of his everlasting and glorified kingdom on the earth. It will advocate the doctrine of the kingdom of heaven at hand, exhibit the signs of the times, of the near approach of the son of man in his kingdom. At the same time, others, who hold different views, such as a "temporal millenium," the "Return of the carnal Jews," to Palestine, - and a long spiritual reign before the personal coming of Christ; will have the opportunity of presenting their views fully, and fairly; or of controverting the opposite sentiments. This is the.first and only newspaper in the Nation, that is devoted to the support of the doctrine of the advent near. It was started about one year since, without a single subscriber. The experiment has proved successful. Circumstances thus far, have shown that such a periodical was needed. We have received much greater encouragement than was anticipated. In addition to a good list of paying subscribers, we have received high recommendations of the paper from several public bodies; among which is the following) by the general conference of Christians expecting the advent of the Lord, held in this city Oct. 14, 1840. Recommendation Of The "Signs Of The Times." Resolved, That we heartily approve of the establishment of the paper in Boston, Mass. called "The Signs of the Times," edited by Joshua V. Himes, for the dissemination of light on the subject of the near approach of the glorious kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ; and we believe it calculated to do immense good to the souls of men, by leading them to a more diligent study of the Holy Scriptures, and awakening in them a more earnest desire and effort to be prepared for the great and glorious event. Resolved, That we earnestly recommend that all our friends, believers in the kingdom near, to exert themselves to increase its circulation, by obtaining subscribers among their acquaintances, and thus assist in extending the knowledge of the coming of the Lord and leading men to a preparation to meet him. Resolved, That it is an inquiry worthy of the serious consideration of all who either fully believe, or are partially convinced of the near approach of the kingdom of God, and of the necessity of spreading light on this momentuous subject, whether they are acting as they will wish to be found when the Lord appears, by patronizing a religious press, either indifferent and silent on this subject, or openly hostile to the discussion or spread of the doctrine, to the entire neglect of one entirely devoted to this great object. The editor has secured able, and learned writers on the prophecies to aid him, by which he hopes to make the next volume more acceptable, and useful than the last. The II. volume, will be commenced in March 1841. Conditions are one dollar per year, on the receipt of the first No. None may expect a second, (unless by mistake, ) without complying with the terms. All communications should be addressed (Post Paid) to J. V. Himes Boston Mass. We only ask the patronage that our humble sheet demands: and the patronage of the truly honest; for we can only hope to benefit such by our labors. Will all such, favorable to our enterprise, give us the aid that duty demands. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
