The book explores the intersection of modern spiritualism and scientific inquiry regarding the afterlife. It addresses the contemporary fascination with communicating with the deceased and the various means people employ to seek this connection. By examining biblical revelations about the "World of Spirits," the author aims to provide insights and guidance on the spiritual realm, highlighting the teachings of the Holy Scriptures in the context of today's revival of interest in spirit communication.
Clarence Larkin's examination of The Book of Revelation stands as one of the
most detailed commentaries ever created, made unique by the large tables and
illustrations. As with his other intensive examinations, Clarence Larkin sets
out to clarify the many mysterious chapters and verses for the benefit of
Christians seeking greater insight and knowledge of the holy text. Using his
own system of organization, Larkin dispenses the various messages and meanings
behind the Book of Revelation clearly. Throughout this superb work of Bible
study, all explanations and assertions are supported by quotations of the
scripture. The principle lessons and stories of Revelation each receive
scrutiny, while the various Sevens - the Seven Dooms, Seven Personages, Seven
Last Plagues, and so on, are explained in enlightening and authoritative
detail. The culmination of more than twenty-five years of study, it is no
exaggeration to say that Larkin's explanations of The Book of Revelation
contain a life's work. Popular among Christians when first published in 1919,
Larkin's detailed texts retain a devoted following to this day, while some of
his greatest works were posthumously published in the late 1920s.
Exploring the aftermath of the Rapture, the narrative delves into the emotional turmoil faced by those left behind. It raises poignant questions about faith and salvation in a world where the Holy Spirit's presence diminishes, leaving individuals to grapple with their spiritual fate. The book examines the struggle for redemption and the challenges of seeking the Lord in a drastically altered reality, highlighting the themes of loss, hope, and the quest for understanding in the face of despair.
This superb and time-tested analysis and study by Clarence Larkin examines in
detail, and explains with the truest clarity, the Biblical Book of Daniel.
Having spent his life in service of God as a minister, and much of his time
deeply vested in contemplation and study of the Biblical canon, Clarence
Larkin placed himself in a prime position to evaluate and explain some of the
more complex passages of the scripture. Naturally blessed with a readable and
flowing style of writing, Larkin enlightened countless thousands of Christians
during his lengthy career. In this book, we receive a passage-by-passage,
line-by-line examination of the Book of Daniel. No detail or phrase is passed
over, and the reader may be assured that Larkin pays the closest attention in
explaining this important yet difficult to understand part of the Holy Bible.
Larkin was moved to author this and several other books after receiving word
from his flock and fellow believers of the difficulties they had reading and
interpreting such texts. The chapters are divided into the major episodes
underpinning the Book of Daniel. Events such as the dream of Nebuchadnezzer
and the calamitous Fall of Babylon receive close narration, while the famous
image of Daniel in the Lion's Den benefits greatly from the clarifying
commentary of Larkin. This edition of Larkin's Book of Daniel includes all of
the intricate charts and illustrations for which the author became famous.
Several of these are very large and detailed images with large, small and tiny
instances of text, and it is doubtless necessary to use a magnifying glass to
fully scrutinize them. Vital to Larkin's explanations, they set out visually
the principles that this book exists to clarify for the reader.
The book delves into the spiritual realm of Christianity, exploring concepts such as demons, the underworld, resurrection, and humanity's connection to spiritual beings. Clarence Larkin provides insights into these elements, offering a comprehensive understanding of the intricate dynamics within the Christian spiritual landscape.
A comprehensive examination of the Book of Revelation, this work draws from 25 years of study and features over 30 illustrations, including charts, maps, and diagrams, to enhance understanding. The author emphasizes a literal interpretation of Revelation, presenting it in chronological order. The reprint carefully preserves the original illustrations, showcasing symbols and creatures mentioned in the text. Known for his influential work, Dispensational Truth, the author aims to clarify the complexities of Revelation for readers.
In Dispensational Truth, Clarence Larkin maps the Prophetic Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments. The culmination of three decades of bible study, Larkin's elaborate prophetical charts and descriptions made the literal interpretation of the Bible accessible to a vast audience and greatly influenced conservative Protestant visual culture. After the first edition of his Dispensational Truth quickly depleted, Larkin expanded his work twofold in charts and descriptive matter for the 1920 edition, which is reprinted here. This singular, exhaustive work draws on the works of figures like C. I. Scofield and John Nelson Darby and provides the definitive foundation of premillennialism. Clarence Larkin (1850-1924) renounced his career as a draftsman to pursue a spiritual life. In 1882, he became a Baptist minister and used his drafting skills to visually interpret the eras of the Bible in accordance with premilliannialist dispensationalism.
The book distills the essential teachings of the Christian faith into accessible language, making complex theological concepts understandable for the average reader. Drawing from over thirty-five years of sermons, the author presents these fundamental doctrines in an engaging format, enhanced by clear charts that aid comprehension. This resource is particularly valuable for preachers and Bible teachers looking to effectively convey foundational beliefs in their teachings.
