ountries
whither I had driven them; and they shall dwell in their own land" (Jer.
xxiii. 6-8).

Glorious times are near at hand for the Church and the world. Great
things hath God promised, all of which He will in His own good time bring
to pass.

The very dimensions of the doorway are of thrilling import, expressing in
square inches the time of the Adamic world, which, when added to other
figures, forecast the time of the end, or the 6,000 years, and point out
the date of the beginning of the Millennium morn, or Sabbath of the
earth--the period spoken of by Daniel when he says, "Blessed is he that
waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty
days." This period we approximated in our last Discourse, and made it
out to be about 1,957. The door-way in square inches is 1,949; take
these inches for years, and we have, before the building of the Pyramid,
of years 1949 A.M., time of building 2170 B.C., and length of Grand
Gallery, 1,882, and we get a total of 6,001. This is indeed a close
approximation.

"The great, the mighty God, the Lord of hosts, is His name. Great in

ways of the sons of men; to give every one according to his ways, and
according to the fruit of his doings; which has set signs and wonders
in the land of Egypt, even unto this day."--Jer. xxxii. 18-20.

Egypt is intimately connected with Palestine in providential history,
both past, present, and future. No student can have a proper knowledge
of the Jewish and Israelitish nation unless he be familiar with the early
civilisation and power of Egypt. From this land went forth the Caphtorim
to settle Palestine, led forth by the great and good Melchisedek, after
he had built the Pyramid. Under his reign they first settled Palestine,
built and made Jerusalem their capital. On the death of Melchisedek they
lost their allegiance to God, they became an idolatrous people, and were
rejected by Jehovah as His special agents. They are known in after
history under the name of Philistines, which simply means the followers
or subjects o
