Author: Bruce Anstey
Knowing the meaning of the terms of Scripture is essential to understanding the divine revelation (the Bible) that God has put in our hands. Without a basic understanding of these doctrinal terms and phrases, we will surely miss what God intends for us to learn from His Word. For those seeking the truth in its purest form and with the most accuracy, it is the conviction of the author that all such should adhere as closely as possible to the teachings of those who were connected with a movement of God to recover much truth in the 1800s. This would be spiritual and insightful men such as: J. N. Darby, J. G. Bellett, G. V. Wigram, C. H. Mackintosh, W. Kelly, F. G. Patterson, F. W. Grant, C. Stanley, A. P. Cecil, E. Dennett, T. B. Baines, A. Miller, W. Scott, J. A. Trench. W. T. Turpin, H. H. Snell, W. W. Fereday, W. J. Hocking, W. T. P. Wolston, S. Ridout, H. Smith, ect. These men were nearest to the fountain when God re-opened it and brought back to the Church much precious truth that had been lost for centuries. As a result, their writings present the truth in unequaled brightness. The aim of this book is to provide the reader with a condensed version of the doctrinal truth that was recovered at that time.
