Читать книгу The Kingdom of Promise and Prophecy - Robertson L. Whiteside - Страница 3
INTRODUCTION
ОглавлениеRobertson L. Whiteside was a native of Hickman county, Tennessee, born December 27, 1869, died at his home in Denton, Texas—where he had lived more than forty years—January 5, 1951. Early in his life (17 years of age), he dedicated himself to the Lord’s service. He was student, educator, and preacher and was ever on the firing lines in the fight against innovations and error. The Bible was his standard of faith and practice. With him, “to live was Christ.” Like Jeremiah of old (a character he so loved and admired), there was a burning fire in his heart he could not contain.
I might write a conventional biography as introduction to this book; however, it seems to me that the following lesson from his pen is more revealing of the purpose of the life that he lived.
