JUST Waking Up The post-millennialists are just beginning to wake up to the fact that many preachers and teachers in this country thave been studying and preaching the Bible for many years; and that a great constituency of Bible people has been raised up ; a constituency with Bible in hand and love in the heart; a people who cannot be moved from ^The I oundation by sophistry or sweet, soothing sayings, but demand a * Thus saith the Lord.” ' It is rather embarrassing for the opponents of the premillennial doc trine, as set forth so fully in the Scriptures, to be handed a Bible and requested to give the Scripture proof in denial of the doctrine of the imminent coming of the Lord, so they have commenced to print books. It is easier to write a book and bolster up the “ post” theory, than it is to produce the proof from the Word. . Now an honest presentation of the Seripture in defense of a doctrine, is a fair form of procedure, and we have been waiting, watching and won dering why it never comes. But, of course, it never can come, for the Scripture cannot be broken. It is easy to make charges and seek to confound premillennialism with Russellism and Seventh Day Adventism, and other false systems, but that is not meeting the issue fairly. We have scanned the religious newspapers and magazines for some straightforward testimony from the Word of God against the premillennial doctrine ,but it cometh not. We are told that prCmillennialists are “ swinging in hammocks” wait ing for the Lord, and that they are “ lacking in missionary zeal,” and all that old “ musty mush,’’—-when, as a matter of fact, every live Christian knows that the evangelists, the missionary leaders, the great outstanding preachers and teachers of the Bible, have been and are premillennialists.
