The Lost Tribes and the Saxons of the East and of the West, With New Views of Buddhism, and Translations of Rock-Records in India (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from The Lost Tribes and the Saxons of the East and of the West, With New Views of Buddhism, and Translations of Rock-Records in India The history of the world predicts the consummation of all history in a higher standing of our common humanity. The darkness of the past is, to become the enlightenment of the future. Hence with every prophecy, of good or of evil, we find a picture of the moral condition on which that prophecy is grounded; and the general upshot of all foreseeing is a vision that reveals the dominion of knowledge over ignorance, and of light over darkness. There are, however, specific predictions in that marvellous Book on which Christians found their faith, and the fulfilment of such predictions has hitherto sustained the authority of that Book, not only as a record, but as a means of throwing light into the dark passages of current history, onwards to the end. It is with a feeling that the truth of that Book will, in some slight degree, be elucidated by this volume, that the attention of the general reader is solicited to the subject of it, which, though interesting in itself to in B.

Forty-Seven Identifications of the Anglo- Saxons with the Lost Ten Tribes of Israel; Founded Upon Five Hundred Scripture Proofs


Book Description

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1878 edition. Excerpt: ... and we have so strong a desire to maintain that all Scripture shall be fulfilled, even as Christ has declared, to the jots and the titles, as to insist that this Scripture must have received fulfilment, though in our blindness (Romans xi.) we have hitherto failed to discover in what way, therefore, we boldly declare that The Identity conclusively proves the truth of this Scripture, and that we Saxons inherit this very name of Saxons from Isaac. It is entirely in accordance with the old usage of cutting off the prefix and adding an affix: that of taking away the prefix "I" in Isaac, and adding the affix "ons" we obtain in the word Saxons nothing more than the "Sons of Isaac;" so that we, being identical with lost Israel, fulfil Scripture by our Saxon name, which is a standing testimony that our seed has been called in Isaac. This was to be only Israel's lot; it is only ours; ergo, we must be Israel. israel must be god'S inheritance. Identification The Forty-seventh. An inheritance is a possession. With us the term is confined to property; each person's inheritance is something localized separate and distinct from properties adjoining. But the Lord has been pleased to apply the term to a people. He careth not for funds, or estates; but, in looking down upon the different nations, He has selected one--only one--out of the many, to become his peculiar possession--His inheritance. It pleased him to accept the prayers of one man, to take the people of Israel as His own inheritance; for Moses said, "If now I have found grace in Thy sight, O, Lord, let my Lord, I pray thee, go among us, for it is a stiff-necked people; pardon our iniquity and our sin, and Take Us For Thine Inheritance" (Exod. xxxiv. 9). The Lord did this; for Moses told the...
