MAN His Present and Future "I am fearfully and wonderfully made"--Psa. 139: 14 evi By H. M. Riggle AUTHOR OF "Th Christian Church; Its Rise and Progress,' "Bible Readings for Bible Students and for the Home and Fireside," "The Sabbath and the Lord's Day," Etc. 2. PREFACE. This book treats on man in his present state, between death and the judgment, and beyond the resurrection in the eternal world. Since he is destined to live somewhere after cycles of ages have passed and the universe has crumbled into chaos, it is desirable to know what that future and eternal state will be. In this work the subject is treated purely from a Bible standpoint; for the Holy Scriptures give us the clearest exegesis of both our present and future. In presenting a new edition of this book, I have taken advantage of the opportunity to revise some parts of the original work, thereby increasing its value. Trusting that the inspired truths in this book will be helpful to those who are seeking light, I commit it to the public. H. M. Riggle. Akron, Ind., April 10, 1916. |
