A Study in Resurrection and Rapture. Few writers have approached
the subject of Biblical prophecy with more diligence and precise
thinking than G. H. Lang. His purpose in studying and writing on
the end-times and related themes was not to be controversial or
sensational, but rather to encourage watchfulness and readiness.
The serious reader will find much to challenge both mind and heart
in these pages as the writer uses the prophetic Scriptures to give
a strong call to holy and careful living. The secret of G. H.
Lang's power and persuasiveness as a writer must surely be
attributed to his lifelong dedication to searching the Scriptures,
not for the sake of aquiring more knowledge, but in order that he
might know God more intimately and follow Him more closely. His
great passion was that God's children everywhere would press beyond
the shallow and superficial and into a deep understanding of the
ways and workings of God. In this respect he was the true successor
to such spiritual giants as George Muller, Hudson Taylor, Robert
Cleaver Chapman and Anthony Norris Groves. One of Mr. Lang's
contemporaries, Douglas W. Brealey, wrote of him: "I think I may
truthfully say that he was the most apostolic man I have ever met;
perhaps for that very reason he was a very controversial figure; a
correspondent suggested to me that he was the most controversial
figure in Brethren circles since J. N. Darby; yet it would be true
to say that he himself was not a controversialist. A very close
student of the Word, and an independent thinker, he was not
prepared to take traditional interpretations unless he were
personally convinced that they were right. . . . To be in his
presence was to realize that one was in the presence of a true
saint of God whose holy life gave weight and authority to all he
taught."
