Excerpt from Reason for Believing the Advent of Our Lord Jesus Christ to Be Pre-Millennial: A Discourse Delivered in St. Luke´s Church, St. Albans, Vermont, the Fourth Sunday After Trinity, July 14, 1878 Messrs. M. W. Bailey, J. F. McGowan, G. W. Bentley, John C. Farrar, and others; Mesdms. H. J. Watson, I. S. Bostwick, H. C. Adams, L. Brainerd, and others. Brethren: - Your kindly expressed note, requesting the printing of the explanatory discourse on the Pre-Millennial Advent, that you may have "the arguments advanced and authorities quoted before you in substance," is received. Herewith is the manuscript. I may express the hope that the spirit of inquiry aroused will not rest until it has accepted or rejected, intelligently, this primitive understanding of that article of the faith, freighted with such tremendously important consequences to the world, "from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead." Since the delivery of this discourse, through the courtesy of the Rev. John Henry Hopkins, D.D., I have been permitted to examine and to make extracts from the manuscript of the late Bishop Hopkins´s work, entitled "The Reign of Christ in connection with the future supremacy of Israel, as predicted in the Old and New Testaments." In this, as I inferred, the Bishop accepts the Pre-Millennial Advent, and gives copious extracts from the Scriptures of both Testaments in proof of the doctrine. To give an idea how he arrived at his conclusions, I quote from the Introduction. "The Church of God, to a certain extent, has set her seal upon the interpretation of prophecy, according to the literal sense, in the Creeds; and has thus made it essential to believe in the inspiration of the prophets by the Holy Ghost; in the Second Advent of Christ, to judge both the quick and the dead; in the resurrection of the body; in the eternal duration of the Saviour´s kingdom; and in the life everlasting.
