DANIEL AND THE REVELATION-Uriah Smith

~The Response of History to the Revelation~

Chapter 1 – The Opening Vision
The Churches Response. — “Even so, Amen.”

Though this coming of Christ is to the wicked

a scene of terror and destruction, it is to the

righteous a scene of joy and triumph. “When

the world’s distress comes, then the saints’

rest comes.” That coming which is with

flaming fire, and for the purpose of taking

vengeance on the wicked, is to recompense

rest to all them that believe. 2 Thessalonians

1:6-10. Every friend and lover of Christ will

hail every declaration and every token of his

return as glad tidings of great joy.

VERSE 8. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning

and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and

which was, and which is to come, the

Almighty.
