or the number Of years in genera
tion; Nothing could be clearer than
that, eh?n
ITS very lucid. So you multiply
1870 by 45t; wellYn
That gives us 5,871 years and eight
months. Subtract 3,945 years, the
period from the beginning to the
birth OF Christ, and we have 1926
years and eight months, or 1927 A. D.,
which must be the time for the second
coming OF the Lord"
But you were to show that April
14th, 1897, was the exact date. You
didn't say anything about 1926 and
eight months, or 1927 simply, when
you began this demonstration.
THAT is explained by the fact that
Christ was really 30 years and eight
months old when he was baptised, al
though the bible says he was about
80. So we must add A months and IA
days to carry Christ to the Passover,
which will bring us down to April IA,
1927. 1t will really come on April 10,
according to our time, for Pope Greg
ory, you remember, made an error of
two days when he fixed up his new
calendar in 1882"
"Then the real time, according to
our calendars, will be April 10, 1927"
Yes. It's" clear enough to you,
isn't itf'
Every clear, Mr.. Rich. The public
will find your demonstration of the
second coming of Christ remarkably
clear and convincing. Does Totten
make it SO clear as you do?'
'"Totten! He can't and straight.
You can't make head or tail to what
he's driving at. But my chronology
Will figure, anyone can work it out
for himself"
Now that you have proved just
when the second advent will come,
Mr.. Rich, won't you give me a brief
account of the accompanying phe-
nomena we hear so much about? Is
the world to be consumed in a great
heatfn
mo, no! There's lots of nonsense
taught and believed. In the first
place, the time of trouble spoken of
in Daniel XII: 1, began in 1888 and
will last for 40 years. The 10th chap
ter of Isaiah calls for a congress of ma
tions to give Palestine back to the
Jews in 1893. Before 1897, Russia
with France will take possession of
the principalities of the Danube, and
France will have Alsace and Lorraine
again; for the Lord says in Genesis
L will extend Joseph and he shall
dwell in the tents of Shem' Russia,
Ethiopia, Persia, Libya and other ma.
tions will be gathered before Jerusa.

his foot again on the Mount of Olives
and there will be a great earthquake
and Rome will go up in volcano
The gentle world will be overthrown
by God after He shall have gathered
up his elect. Then a gospel will be
preached for one generation after the
second advent, and still another gos
