Regarding the Dates indicating the near approach of the Coining of the Lord and of Israel's Restoration.

Fellow-Countrymen! There is a very general belief among men that we have reached what are called "the latter days"—"the Time of the End"—(Daniel xii. 4.) At this period great changes are expected to occur on the "Earth,"—and the Lord we believe will come "in the Air" to receive to himself some of those He has selected to be with Him while the judgments are taking place on the Gentile World (1 Thess. iv. 17, v. 1-5; Isaiah xlii. 13).

We calculate the approach of the time by the Dates given us by God Himself, both in His Holy Word, and also in the Great Pyramid, "His Sign, Witness, Altar, and Pillar, in the midst of the Land of Egypt, and at the Border thereof" (Isaiah xix, 19, 20). Let me mention some of these Dates; and in so doing ask you to note they all point to about the years 1880 to 1882, as the period of some stupendous occurrences. The following commends itself to some minds, though others are doubtful as to the application of the passage. In Daniel ix. 24 (a Prophecy seemingly quite distinct from that in verse 25, et seq.) the Angel told the Prophet that 70 weeks were determined upon his People the Jews, "to make an end of sins." 70 weeks are 490 days, and a "Day" in Prophetic language is a Solar year (Ezekiel iv. 6). The destruction of Jerusalem by Titus being (we suppose) indicated by the above, we must deduct 70 from 490 years, to arrive at the date of Christ's Birth. This gives us 420 years as the period to run from the time the Angel spoke, to the date of the Lord's Nativity. In Daniel viii 14, we have another message to this Prophet in the same year, telling him that after 2300 years the Sanctuary (Jerusalem) would be Cleansed (or "justified") and no longer (as it is now by the Turks) "trodden under foot." Deducting 420 from 2300, there comes out of the destined year a.d. 1880, after which "the Cleansing" of Zion will occur. Whether the above be the correct application or not, the Great Pyramid agrees perfectly with the result.

The length of the Grand Gallery symbolizing the duration of the Christian Dispensation is exactly 1881-6 Pyramid inches. Reckoning inches for years we have the end of this Dispensation (but not of the World) indicated as destined to occur about July or August, 1882. The Impending South Wall of the Grand Gallery shows the suddenness of the Lord's coming, "even as a thief in the night" (Rev. xvi. 15; 1 Thess. v. 2, 4). My Friends! are you ready to welcome Him? Adopting other modes of reckoning, the result is the same. The rise of Mahomedauism was a.d. 622. Adding the 42 months of Rev. xi. 2, which are the 1260 day years of Rev. xii. 6, or "the time, times and half a time" (3 ½ years) of Daniel xii. 7, we are brought again to a.d. 1882 as the probable termination of the Mahomedan Imposture. Again, the Romish Heresy took its rise in a.d. 610. Adding the 1260 years, or three and a half times of Daniel vii. 25, to that date as the limit of the true Israelite Church's period of suffering from Rome's trouble, we arrive at a.d. 1870, when the Pope's Temporal Power was overthrown—only 12 years before the sudden collapse of those Gentile Politics—(Predicted in the Great Pyramid)—ovar which Rome has ruled so long. The return of Israel with Judah to her land we believe will take place about the time of the Lord's Return to gather up some of His Saints in "the air." Hosea vi. 1, 2, gives us the materials for calculating this Date. The Ten Tribes were "dead" and "buried" b.c. 678 (2 Kings xvii. 23; Isaiah vii 8). page 20 After two Millennial Days—each of one thousand years (2 Peter iii. 8, Israel was "revived" in "the Isles of the West." This brings us to a. d. 1322, about the Era of Edward the First, "the English Justinian," by whom our British Laws were founded, the fabric on which the British Empire rests to-day. That epoch too was the era of John Wycliffe, "the Morning Star of the English Reformation." In "the Third day" of a thousand years, the very time wherein our lost is cast, a. d. 1879 to 1882, "the dead is alive again," the "lost" is "found" (Luke xv. 24-32; the British Nation is "rising up," asserting its Israelite origin,—and "we" British Israelites "shall live in His sight" (Hosea vi. 2).

Again, in Psalm cii. 13, 14, we have an indication that "the set time to favour Zion" will have "come" when the Lord's "servants" (Israel, Isaiah, lxiii. 17) "take pleasure in her stones." Our Nation just now has concluded the survey of the Holy Land, and is anxiously examining every stone and every mark in Jerusalem and its vicinity in literal fulfilment of a promise which shows that the time to favour Zion and to restore us to Our Land has "come."

In Ezekiel xxxvi. 8, a "Sign" is given us that when the Mountains of Israel shall shoot forth their branches and yield their fruit to the Lord's people Israel, that people "are at hand to come!" The accounts of the conditions of Agriculture in Palestine show that the time specified is approaching, and the return of the people therefore is at the doors! Further, over Israel there were destined to pass as punishment, "Seven Times" (Leviticus xxvi. 18, 21, 24, 28). Now, Daniel iv. 23, 25, 28-37, Rev. xii. 6, 14, show us that a "Time" in prophetic language is equal to a year of 360 days or years. "A time, times and half a time" therefore is 360 + 720 + 180 = 1260 years and twice that period, or 7 "Times" = 2520—that is, over 2 ½ Millenniums. This period thus agrees with Hosea vi. 1, 2, and indicates that Israel's revival and Restoration to their Land may be looked for any time between the present year and a.d. 1881-6. That epoch, as I have shown already, is what God's Word, and the Great Pyramid as well, tell us will probably usher in "The Coming of Our Blessed Lord," and the Return also of "the Tribes" to their Land.

Other calculations derived from the measurements from the Great Pyramid point also to a.d. 1881-6 as the close of the 6000 years of the World's History, and the beginning of the 7th Thousand or Millennial reign of our Lord upon Earth—Only 3 ½ Years Hence! Again, I ask, Are you prepared for His thus speedy coming? Are you living as Christian Israelites should at this time, in eager expectation of the King's return? Repent, I beseech you, if you are not, and turn to the Lord. He will receive and accept you! Let me ask you to dwell on the marvellous favour shown to us British—being Israel—in that we are thus able to calculate the date of the Lord's Return. The Apostle Paul, in 1 Thess. v. 1-6, tells us this was to be the fact. As to the Great Pyramid, no other nation (of the Gentiles) possesses the "Inch" Unit of measure, commeasurable with "the Pyramid Inch." Lacking that key, no Gentile Race is permitted to comprehend the mysteries confided only to US, regarding either the time of the Lord's Revelation from Heaven, or the mighty changes now approaching! Be warned in time—you who love not the thought of the Lord's appearing! you who have not made your peace with God! Seek, without delay, the Lord Jesus, in repentance, for He will in no wise cast out any who come to Him.
