The Histories and Prophecies of Daniel

by G. H. Lang; Hardcover, 224 pgs.

-Have you considered that the qualifications for being a prophet are also the qualifications for understanding prophecy?

In this insightful book, G.H. Lang presents not only interpretations of the prophecies of Daniel, but even more the type of person Daniel was, which was how he became so useful to God.

Lang also warns us not to make casual speculations as to the significance of the prophetic signs, because God often holds back the understanding until there is the need for God’s people to take action. 

Yet this book does make certain predictions, including the startling one that the city Babylon in Revelation does not refer to Rome but to the original Babylon to be rebuilt before the end times.

On his study of prophecy, G. H. Lang says-

"By the grace of God my interest in prophetic studies was kindled in my youth, and by that grace it has been maintained and deepened for sixty years.  Some results of this reading and reflection are here offered to my fellow-pilgrims in this waste, howling wilderness for the end of which we long."

"I say results rather than conclusions.  Let no one conceive that he has concluded his study of prophetic scripture.  For myself, I know that I know 'not yet as I ought to know.'  The mass of details is so vast that it is more than a life-work to co-ordinate it, and the overlooking or the wrongly estimating of even one statement may lead to a false opinion, just as the omission or misreading of one figure will falsify a calculation."
