Synopsis

Like the Book of Revelation, the Book of Daniel is primarily a book of prophecy. Some of the prophecies in the Book, however, have already been fulfilled, and have become history, while other prophecies recorded in the Book are still future and await fulfillment. I am accused sometimes of preaching too much on the subject of prophecy, but so long as others neglect to preach upon this important subject, and just as long as I find the material for my sermons, in the Word of GOD, I feel that I am standing upon a sure foundation and that I am doing the Lord's will regardless of any criticism which men may bring against my ministry of GOD's word. Surely, GOD intended that all of His Word should be preached and not merely a certain portion of it. That, my friends, is exactly what I am trying to do. Without fear or favor, I am trying to preach the entire Word of GOD to Jews, Gentiles and Christians alike. The importance of prophecy is well affirmed in II Peter 1:19-21, where it says, "We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts: Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the Scripture is of any private interpretation. For prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost." Understanding these things, it is my firm conviction that GOD will bless any preacher who will preach on the subject of prophecy, and give to the people what they need rather than what they want. Few people realize that a greater portion of the Bible is pure prophecy. This applies to both the Old and the New Testaments. Certainly the Book of Daniel was necessary or it would never have been written, and if we neglect to study it, the truth of the book will remain the same, and we will only be robbing ourselves of the spiritual light and truth which GOD intended that we should have.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

To the consistent faithfulness of our founder, Floyd Hitchcock whose untiring devotion to the Lord JESUS CHRIST, and to the ministry of the Gospel, who has been used of GOD to accomplish much for Him, we do affectionately dedicate this little volume of Christian poems. As a young man of 19, Brother Hitchcock began his active service for the Lord, as a creek-fording circuit rider in the area of Ava, Missouri, deep in the heart of the Ozarks. Later he also taught school in Taney County at "Possum Trot", often riding many hours on horseback in all kinds of weather to preach and teach GOD's word. After a short term at Taylor University in 1923, he and his wife were called to the foreign mission field where they served six years in Japan, Korea, Formosa, and China. When at home on their first furlough, the door closed to foreign missions, and after a short term in the pastorate, the Lord opened a new field of service on an international level, through the media of radio. Under the incorporate name of "The Faith of Our Fathers Program," -- Mr. Hitchcock's teaching ministry has been a source of Spiritual blessing to thousands of people throughout the Ozarks, during more than 26 years of daily broadcasting over KWTO at Springfield. Over 50 countries have been reached with the Gospel by his overseas programming. And, unknown scores have been blessed and strengthened through the printed page, youth Bible camps, and Bible conferences, which have become an important phase of the work. Through all these years Brother Hitchcock has been much in demand as a guest speaker, and his personal appearances and presentation of colored motion pictures, which he took on several trips to the Holy Land and to other foreign mission fields, have made him one of the most loved and respected servants of GOD in all the Ozarks.
