Thoughts Critical And Practical On The Book Of Revelation

Reprint of the original, first published in 1881.

Excerpt from Thoughts, Critical and Practical, on the Book of Revelation The Character of the Book. This is expressed in one word, Revelation. A revelation is something revealed, something clearly made known, not some thing hidden and concealed. Moses, in Deut. 29 29, tells us that the secret things belong unto the Lord our God but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children forever. The very title of the book, then, is a sufficient refutation of the popular opinion of to-day, that this book is among the hidden mysteries of God, and cannot be understood. Were this the case, it should bear some such title as The Mystery, or The Hidden Book certainly not that of The Revelation.
