THE greater part of this little work hitherto consists of a brief comment on the Apocalypse, substantially similar to the notes upon that book which have appeared in the present publication, and presented in a form as simple as possible. Here and there are papers containing Gospel truth, and suited to inquirers. May I observe as to a text or two used in page 60, that Heb. 12:2323To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, (Hebrews 12:23) refers to the spirits of just men, not in the imperfect state of separation from the body, but " made perfect," which will only be in fact in the presence of Christ. They are the Old Testament saints distinguished from the Church. Again, Rev. 14:1313And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors; and their works do follow them. (Revelation 14:13) applies to a definite period yet future. It is not general blessedness, but blessedness from henceforth.
No. 5 is the first of the enlarged monthly series.
