           These  events, we  believe,  are  plainly  foretold  in  the
         Word, though we would not be dogmatic as to the precise
         order- in which they are given above (see preface).  But we
         trust  it will enable the reader to apprehend,  in some de-
         gree, the extent to which the future has been revealed, unto
         us, by the Spirit  (2 Pet.  1:21; John  16:13;  1 Cor.  2:10) and
         to realize that ETERNITY ITSELF will not  be a  blank,  or
         statue  like  condition, but a  continually unfolding mani-
         festation of God to us throughout the "ages to come" (Eph.
         2:7) even the "AGES OF AGES."  See Greek Gal.  1:5; Eph,
         3:21; Phil. 4:21;  1 Tim. 1:17;  2 Tim. 4:18; Heb. 13:21;  1 Pet
