TO TOWER SUBSCRIBERS—THANKS!

We thank the friends for promptness this year in sending in their TOWER subscriptions. The many kind congratulations on the change of the journal to a semi-monthly are also much appreciated. The Master said, “Marvel not if the world hate you;” but he also promised compensation for its hatred even in this present life. (John 15:17-20; Mark 10:29,30.) We realize the fulfilment of the latter promise, as well as the former. The Lord’s precious promises, backed by your loving letters of sympathy and encouragement, much more than offset the frowns and hostility of the world and the nominal church.

The responses to the printed notices on the last page of the November TOWER have been numerous, and indicate a deep interest in the Truth. How much these expressions have been appreciated here in the TOWER office, we need not tell you; and how much more they are appreciated in heaven—we cannot tell you that. We can only remind you of the Scriptural promises, “The Lord knoweth them that are His,” and “Your labor is not in vain in the Lord.” Only a few seem to have misapprehended the object of the plan adopted. We well know that some need no suggestions from either the Apostle or us as to how to give to the Lord’s work. Some, indeed, we have felt needed to be restrained from a liberality beyond their ability. We have felt it to be our duty and have at times returned money, watches, etc., to some whom we feared were disposed to give more than they should. Our object in the plan adopted was to assist the Church to-day by calling their attention to the methods advised by the Apostle to the Church of his day. We realize, as the Apostle did, that each one who engages in the Lord’s work at some sacrifice to himself is proportionately blessed. And desiring, as the Apostle did, that all should be blessed, we advised and still advise his method of laying aside an offering to the Lord’s service on the first day of each week (1 Cor. 16:2), as the best method for the majority of the Lord’s people to pursue.

Those who need to avail themselves of the terms to the Lord’s Poor mentioned above should not hesitate to do so. Such should state themselves plainly and realize that we rejoice to send the TOWER to them.

VOL. I.—”THE PLAN OF THE AGES”

This work is specially designed to make plain the divine plan. It begins at the beginning of the subject, by establishing the faith of the reader in God and in the Bible as his revelation. It traces the glorious plan therein revealed, and shows which parts of that plan are accomplished and which will be accomplished during the Millennial age, also the manner of its introduction, and its objects and methods.

We know of nothing to compare with this book, as a “Bible Key.” The Two Hundredth Thousand is now on the press, and many who have read it carefully and prayerfully declare that if they could not obtain another they would not part with their copy, and the hopes it has enkindled, for millions.

Clear type, good paper, 350 pages. Price in cloth covers, embossed, $1.00. (The subscribers to ZION’S WATCH TOWER are supplied in any quantity at the wholesale price, 50 cents, as all are considered agents.) Price in paper covers, 25 cents, reduced from 50 cents.

VOL. II.—”THE TIME IS AT HAND”

This volume presents evidences that:—Six Thousand Years from Adam ended in A.D. 1872. The Date of our Lord’s Birth was October, B.C. 2. The Date of Annunciation to Mary, Dec. 25th, B.C. 3. The Date of our Lord’s Baptism was Oct., A.D. 29. The Date of our Lord’s Crucifixion, April, A.D. 33. The “Seventy Weeks” of Israel’s favor ended A.D. 36. The Jewish Age “Harvest” was 40 years, A.D. 30-70. The Christian Age “Harvest,” 40 yrs., A.D. 1875-1914. The Jewish Jubilees were Typical of the “Times of Restitution of all Things.”—Acts 3:19-21. The Typical Jubilees Mark the Date of their Antitype. The “Times of the Gentiles” will End with A.D. 1914. The Jewish Age, in Its Length, Its Ceremonies, etc., Typified the realities of the Christian Age and its Length. Elias or “Elijah the Prophet” was a Type.—How fulfilled. The Antichrist Has Come!—What? When? Where?

Besides the above, it treats many other subjects of deep interest and great importance to “the household of faith.”

Terms the same as Vol. I.—360 pages.

This volume treats of the prophetic periods of Daniel and Revelation—The 2300 Days, The 1260 Days, The 1290 Days, The 1335 Days.—The Work of the Harvest now in Progress.—The Return of God’s Favor to Israel.—The Great Pyramid of Egypt and its wonderful corroboration of all the prophetic testimony.
