The Reverend Clarence Larkin was one of the most widely influential
thinkers on end-times prophecies of the early twentieth century,
and his writings remain vital to appreciating the apocalyptic
Christian thought that today enjoys widespread popularity. This
1919 book serves as a study guide for the Book of Revelation, the
Bible's prophetic final chapter. Larkin explains the concepts of
the Beast and the False Prophet, the Seven Seals and the Seven
Trumpets, and the importance of the Book of Daniel in understanding
the Rapture. Charts and illustrations depict the "Pale Horse
Rider," "Daniel's Four Wild Beasts," "Egyptian Plagues Compared,"
and more. Also available from Cosimo Classics: Larkin's The Spirit
World, Rightly Dividing the Word, and The Second Coming of Christ.

Clarence Larkin's examination of The Book of Revelation stands as
one of the most detailed commentaries ever created, made unique by
the large tables and illustrations. As with his other intensive
examinations, Clarence Larkin sets out to clarify the many
mysterious chapters and verses for the benefit of Christians
seeking greater insight and knowledge of the holy text. Using his
own system of organization, Larkin dispenses the various messages
and meanings behind the Book of Revelation clearly. Throughout this
superb work of Bible study, all explanations and assertions are
supported by quotations of the scripture. The principle lessons and
stories of Revelation each receive scrutiny, while the various
Sevens - the Seven Dooms, Seven Personages, Seven Last Plagues, and
so on, are explained in enlightening and authoritative detail. The
culmination of more than twenty-five years of study, it is no
exaggeration to say that Larkin's explanations of The Book of
Revelation contain a life's work.

The Reverend Clarence Larkin was one of the most widely influential
pop theologians of the early twentieth century: his works are the
source of many of the "prophecies" and "truths" end-times
Christians hold to even today. This stupendous 1918 book-perhaps
his greatest work-is the result of more than 30 years' worth of,
the author informs us, "careful and patient study of the Prophetic
Scriptures."Fully illustrated by charts describing God's plan for
humanity, Dispensational Truth covers: Pre-Millennialism the Second
Coming of Christ the present evil world the Satanic trinity the
world's seven great crises prophetical chronology the threefold
nature of man the Book of Revelation five fingers pointing to
Christ the False Prophet and much more.American Baptist pastor and

In this book, Clarence Larkin explains the various elements of the
spiritual world of Christianity; including demons; the underworld;
resurrection; and man's relationship to the spirits. Unafraid to
tackle topics often ignored or relegated to the barest mention by
other theologians, in The Spirit World Clarence Larkin delves
deeply into the topics such as hell, Satan and demonic
manifestations. His accessible style is made further comprehensible
by the myriad drawings and charts, which visually portray concepts
which first appeared in the Bible. For decades in his role as a
preacher and theologian, Larkin immersed himself in the depths of
Biblical lore. His studies ranged from explaining obscure or
cryptic books of the Bible, to clarifying the manifestations of
spirits good and evil, and how these corporeal beings interact with
one another and with humans. The machinations behind phenomena such
as resurrection, fallen angels and the journey of the soul to the
afterlife are topics which Larkin explains.
In this inspirational book, preacher and educator Clarence Larkin
explains the characteristics of Baptism which motivated him to join
his denomination. Larkin offers in this fine work an in-depth guide
to baptism, from its origins in the Gospels, to its character,
traditions and doctrine in the modern-day. The aim of baptizing,
and its symbolism in Christian belief, are also explained with the
use of the Biblical Gospels and other sources. Never one to stray
from the very core of his subject, Clarence Larkin keenly tells the
reader about the origins of the very word 'Baptism'. The ceremonial
procedures, from the view of the baptizer and the person to be
baptized, are also discussed. Quotes of the Gospel are frequent,
with Larkin striking the tone of clarity which was his custom. The
assumption that Baptists believe baptizement is essential to
salvation is shown to be incorrect, with Larkin careful to cite the
Gospels to support this assertion.

Larkin believed that the "First Coming" of Christ, important as it
was, was not the doctrinal center of the Scriptures. In other
words, Christ's "First Coming" was not the center of a circle that
contains all doctrine, but was one of the foci of an ellipse of
which the other center is the "Second Coming." Larkin does a close
textual reading of the bible in terms of this "Second Coming," the
truth of which he sees as amply documented in the bible. By the
estimation of many Bible believers Larkin was the most insightful
and well-equipped Bible student of his day, and even to this
present day. His books are filled with charts and biblical
exegesis. Larkin is perhaps best known as the author of
Dispensational Truth, also available from Martino Publishing.
