The views expressed in this book are those of a meticulous student of history and the Bible. Newton believed that the Creator and sustainer of the universe is both the God of science and the God of the Bible. This book surveys some of the leading prophecies of Daniel and Revelation in the light of history, demonstrating that God caused to have recorded, largely in symbolic representations, historical events long before they actually transpired. Isaac Newton brought forward what later writers, notably Charles Russell in Studies in the Scriptures, have presented much more comprehensively, after time and events had elapsed to bring Newton's views into clearer focus.
Not only are Isaac Newton's prophetic views far more substantial than the mainline religionists of his day, but his theology as a whole is more thoughtful, studied, and substantiated.
