The Great Prophecies by G. H. Pember Long Description:
G. H. Pember's book on Old and New Testament Prophecy, decidedly dispensational. Pember was the author of the well-known book Earth's Earliest Ages, and this book was written later to focus more on prophecy than history. The full title is The Great Prophecies Concerning the Gentiles, the Jews, and the Church of God.
Excerpt:
Why man, immediately after his introduction into the world, should have been exposed to temptation and sin with all its attendant miseries, we cannot explain. We are altogether unable to decide whether he is now passing through a fiery trial which is intended to humble him and eradicate the rebellious feelings conceived in former ages, while the blood of the Lord Jesus atones for them; or whether some other and, perhaps, widely different cause has shaped the wise and merciful counsels of the Most High in regard to our race. Nor can anything be more foolish than the attempt to penetrate a mystery so utterly beyond our ken—a mystery which, in spite of all our efforts, must remain hidden until, in some future age, it shall please the Almighty to draw back the curtain with His own hand, and so to reveal, to those who could trust Him amid the darkness of this life, the depths and faultless wisdom of His unwearying love.
