Excerpt from A First Century Message to Twentieth Century Christians: Addresses Based Upon the Letters to the Seven Churches of Asia

This book contains the last messages of Christ to men. In some important ways it differs from any other in the Divine Library. John did not receive it by the inspiration of the Spirit in the ordinary sense of that expression, but directly from Jesus Christ, as He appeared to him while in exile in Patmos.

About the author

G. Campbell Morgan

356 books49 followers
Reverend Doctor George Campbell Morgan D.D. was a British evangelist, preacher and a leading Bible scholar. A contemporary of Rodney "Gipsy" Smith, Morgan preached his first sermon at age 13. He was the pastor of Westminster Chapel in London from 1904 to 1919, and from 1933 to 1943, pausing briefly between to work at Biola in Los Angeles, which he eventually handed over to Martyn Lloyd Jones.

Morgan was a prolific author, writing over 60 works in his lifetime, not counting the publishing of some of his sermons as booklets and pamphlets. In addition to composing extensive biblical commentaries, and writing on myriad topics related to the Christian life and ministry, his essay entitled "The Purposes of the Incarnation" is included in a famous and historic collection called The Fundamentals—a set of 90 essays edited by the famous R. A. Torrey, who himself was successor to D. L. Moody both as an evangelist and pastor—which is widely considered to be the foundation of the modern Christian Fundamentalist movement.

Wow. Very powerful and convicting. Morgan first lays the foundation for the messages by studying the appearance of Christ in the Book of Revelation chapter 1, then explores the messages to the churches in the following chapters. He explains the symbolism and makes the Scripture passages clear.

I listened to the LibriVox edition. MaryAnn is an excellent reader - very clear and well-spoken.
