PREFACE

J EHOVA4FI makes known his purposes to his obe-

dient creatures in his own due time. In obedience

to his will his beloved Son came to earth and suffered

death. God raised Jesus up out of death and exalted

him to the highest place in the universe. Clothed with

all power and authority and made the Execulivc: Olli-

cer of Jehovah, Jesus knew that by and through his

kingdom Satan and his organization would be de-

stroyed, wickedness wiped out, and the word and

name of his Father would be completely vindicated.

Doubtless he was anxious to proceed to the comple-

tion of that glorious work; but Jehovah said to him,

Wait until my due time to make the enemy thy foot-

stool. Jesus knew that he was to have associated with

him other faithful creatures taken from amongst men

and made like unto himself and that these with him

would constitute God’s ‘elect servant ‘.

When on earth, Jesus emphasized above all other

things the importance of the kingdom of God. He

told his faithful followers that he would go away and

prepare a place for them and return and receive

them. In hcavcn God gave Jesus Christ The Revela-

tion, and hc sent his angels and caused John to write

The Revelation in sign language. No man then un-

derstood it, but the expressed will of God was that

his servants should understand it in his due time.

The Revelation would show his servants the things

that must shortly come to pass, and those hearing and

obeying the message of that Revelation would be

grent,ly blessed.

All who love God, his beloved Son, and his king-

dom, have been eager to understand The Revelation.

Students have prayerfully and earnestly sought the

meaning thcrcof. Prior to 1930 there never was a

PREFACE

satisfactory explanation of The Revelation published,

the manifest reason being that it was not God’s due

time for his servants to have an understanding there-

of. The Scriptures were written chiefly for the aid,

encouragement and comfort of the faithful on earth

at the end of the world. Therefore it is to be expected

that the feet members of Christ would be given an

understanding of The Revelation while in the flesh.

The Scriptural and supporting evidence is now

clear to his people that Christ Jesus came to his tem-

ple in 1918 and began to take account with his serv-

ants, and that those whom he found faithful he ap-

proved and made a part of “The Servant”. These

are designated the remnant, to whom has been com-

mitted the testimony of Jesus Christ. Since that time

the Lord has given to his people the key to the un-

derstanding of The Revelation. It now seems clear

that it is God’s due time for his servants to under-

stand that great prophecy so long clothed in mystery.

A blessed time is therefore at hand for those who

read and understand and obey.

With profound gratitude to God Light is pub-

lished, setting out the text of The Revelation a,nd a

brief statement of the facts showing fultllment of

that great prophecy. For convenience it is issued in

Books One and Two. No credit is due and none should

be given to any man for what appears herein. The

Revelation is God’s, given to his beloved Son for the

benefit of his servants and sent to them by the angels

of the Lord. Those who delight to feed upon the truth

will read it with profit and joyfully pass it on to

others that they too may be blessed and join in the

song of praise to Jehovah’s name.
