Editor's Notes

As you read through this material, please keep in mind that it was written during the fearsome times of the Cold War by people who had just witnessed the horrors of World War II. There was a strong inclination (which is reflected in some of these lessons) to interpret Bible prophecy in light of those events. As history has subsequently shown, the author's inclination was wrong. But this does not in any way invalidate the compelling scope of Bible prophecy, nor even the general theme of Armstrong's explanation of those prophecies. Some have assumed that since Armstrong was wrong about some of these details, he was wrong on everything. It is the editor's hope the student would instead recall Paul's admonition to the church of the Thessalonians, "Prove all things; hold fast that which is good." The editor's further hope that you will likewise embrace the things that Armstrong taught which have been proven to be true.
