About This Item

Charlestown, Massachusetts: Samuel T. Armstrong, 1811. Octavo. xiv, [17]-380 pages. One of the classic works of millennialism in the 19th Century. He calculates that the reign of Christ will begin in 1866 though he admits the calculation may not be exactly correct; however, are close to the reign of Christ. The horrors of French atheism following the work of Voltaire and those who followed him culminating with Napoleon's reestablishment of the Pope's power (the book was written four years before Waterloo). The books shows all the views that the Millerites and their followers who in the 20th century favored the premillennial view. While most theologians have come to understand today, it is not a literal millennium in view but rather Christ as victorious in history, those older teachings with their tendencies to name the Antichrist as the latest villain from the news still appear on the evangelical scene. Bound in full contemporary calf, red morocco spine label gilt, wear to corners, joints repaired with cloth tape, lacks rear endpapers. A good copy.
