The Midnight Cry!

by Harry A. Ironside

Publisher:

Loizeaux Brothers

, 1928

Overview

When will Christ return? How do we respond to his command to “watch and pray”? Ironside confronts these questions with bold interpretations of prophecy, and warnings for urgent repentance. He first appeals to skeptics with evidence that the church now exists at the close of history, before tackling the history of the Gentiles and the prospects for the future of unbelievers. He also devotes a chapter to the history and the nation of Israel and its role in Christ’s return. This fascinating account will interest anyone concerned with the fulfillment of biblical prophecy and the anticipation of Christ’s second coming.

About Harry A. Ironside

H. A. Ironside (1876–1951) is one of the twentieth century’s greatest preachers. He has received honorary degrees from Wheaton College and Bob Jones University and was frequently invited to lecture at Dallas Theological Seminary.

After a serving as a Salvation Army officer for a brief period, Ironside joined the Plymouth Brethren and started what would become a highly successful itinerant ministry of preaching and teaching. He served as pastor at Moody Memorial Church from 1930 to 1948, and preached more than 7,000 sermons during his lifetime.

Harry A. Ironside produced close to 100 major books and pamphlets, mainly on expository and prophetic themes. He was a major figure in the popularizing of dispensationalism among American evangelicals and for the most part followed the views of the Scofield Reference Bible. Ironside’s first-edition commentaries, most-loved sermons, addresses, lectures, and tracts are available in The Works of H. A. Ironside (65 vols.).
