Book Description

Excerpt from The Why and the Wherefore of the European War: Bible Study Now I want you to notice that to night I wish to lay down some methodsand some ways by which God gauges the nations. For instance, in the eighth cen tury before Christ one of the most epoch making nations of antiquity was the most successful in military achieve merits, and that nation, because of its military exploits, was disposed to boast of its great achievements. Now in the l0th chapter of Isaiah we get into the very heart and secret of why that na tion was successful. That nation is the Assyrian nation. I will begin from the 10th chapter and the 5th verse. (5th to 7th verses.) And now a num ber of statements are made relative to what this Assyrian says in his heart, which I will not read, but I will start from'the 12th verse. In the 15th verse is What God says concerning this boast. The Lord says of this Assyrian, with such great military achievements and such great boasts, What is he? Why he is an axe - I hew it; he is a staff I swing it; and when I am done with it, I will break it in pieces and get me another one.
