- Summary:
- "The Time of the End" by Edward Hoare is a theological work written in the mid-19th century. The book discusses the state of the world, the visible Church, and the people of God as they relate to the anticipated return of Jesus Christ. It examines prophetic teachings and expectations surrounding the second coming, placing considerable emphasis on moral and spiritual conditions prior to this significant event. In this series of lectures, Hoare argues that believers should be attuned to the prophetic signs indicating the nearness of Christ's return while warning against the apathy and indifference prevalent in society and among professing Christians. He highlights the moral decay, division within the Church, and false teachings that characterize the latter days. Despite a bleak portrayal of society, he reassures readers that true believers will endure, remain watchful, and stand firm in their faith, ultimately promising that God's people will be separated and vindicated at the time of Christ's return, reinforcing hope in the face of adversity.
