W. B. Godbey - Enter His Rest

prophetic data which you will find exceedingly convenient for reference, and to use when you desire to impart
information on this great and mighty truth of our Savior's return to this world, which is certainly very nigh. All
the chronologies concur in the conclusion that we are certainly living in the time of the end of the Gentile age,
and great and wonderful events are going to transpire whose adumbrations are strikingly ominous in all lands.
According to the Lunar Chronology, which measures time by the revolutions of the moon around the earth, the
Gentile times have already expired and are fifteen years over. According to the Calendar Chronology, which
measures time by the revolution of the planets around the sun, the Gentile times only lack twenty-seven years.
According to the Solar Chronology, which measures time by the revolution of the earth around the sun, there are
only sixty-two ears yet remaining to complete the period of the Gentile times, when we are assured that our
Lord will appear (Luke 21:24) on the throne of His millennial glory, dethrone Satan and all of his subordinates,
and establish His kingdom from the rising of the sun to the going down of the same.
“For he shall have dominion over river, sea and shore, As fir as eagle's pinion or dove's light wing can soar.”
Now, let us remember that Daniel, the twelfth chapter, gives us forty-five years as the Tribulation Period, during
which the Ancient of Days (Dan. 7:9) will shake down every potentate, political and ecclesiastical, thus clearing
the way for the glorious reign of His Son. N. B. Just before the tribulation shall set in, our Lord will descend and
take away His Bride (Dan. 12) to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, (Matt. 25) which will continue
contemporaneously with the Tribulation on the earth and at its expiration our Lord will return on the throne of
His millennial glory, (Rev. 20) arrest Satan and take him out of the world, establishing His glorious reign in all
the earth.
Now you see above that the Lunar Chronology has already expired the Gentile times plus fifteen years, the
Calendar Chronology will expire then in twenty-seven years, and the Solar Chronology in sixty-two years, but
as the Tribulation belongs to the Gentile times, therefore the Rapture will take place forty-five years before its
expiration, which gives us, according to the Lunar Chronology, the Rapture over-due forty-five plus fifteen,
equaling sixty years; Calendar Chronology, forty-five minus twenty-seven, equaling eighteen years Rapture
over-due; and Solar Chronology, sixty-two minus forty-five, equals seventeen years until the Rapture of the
saints is due. Therefore you see that the Lunar makes the glorious Rapture of the saints due sixty years ago, the
Calendar eighteen years ago, and the Solar seventeen years from this date, I. e., in 1923.
The Mohammedans and Jews use the Lunar Chronology, the European nations the Calendar, and the Americans
the Solar.
These facts ought to keep all enlightened Christians on the constant outlook for the appearing of our blessed,
glorified Savior to transfigure and take us up to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. Are you robed, ready,
watching and waiting? If not settle it quickly. Radically and eternally plunge beneath the crimson flood that
washes whiter than snow, and then rise to walk in Heaven's own light above the world and sin, with heart made
pure, garments white and Christ enthroned within.
(16.) ”MILLENNIUM” This is one of these dime booklets which tells you briefly all about the glorious reign
of our blessed and wonderful Savior on the earth in His personal, transfigured majesty, following His descension
from the Marriage Supper of the Lamb accompanied by the transfigured saints of His Bridehood, who, during
the tribulation on the earth while the Father was hackling [sic] out of all nations the incorrigibles whose
character is utterly incompatible and unharmonizable with the glorious reign of perfect justice, purity,
righteousness and love in all the earth, passed through an adjudication in Heaven, by which they received their
respective places in the Divine government according to their personal idiosyncrasies and adaptation to conserve
the glorious millennial reign, as the faithful and loving subordinates of the King of kings and Lord of lords,
(Rev. 20:4-6).
Our great and pressing expedition at the present day is to get the Bride ready in every nation under Heaven,
since our glorious Lord will need charter members for His millennial kingdom in every nation. He informs us
(Matt. 19:28) that the Apostles will be the first rulers in His glorious coming kingdom. He also repeats the same
at the last supper (Luke 22:28). There are just about twelve great nationalities now upon the earth, which will be
given, according to His promise, to the twelve Apostles, as His chief subordinates, all the members of the
