EEV. E. L. LANGSTON, M.A., OX 



1. There are to be two Leagues of Nations. One comprising 

 nations of the north of Europe, with Persia and Abyssinia; the 

 other comprising nations of the middle and south of Europe, 

 within the area of the ancient Eoman Empire. 



2. The cause of the next war wiU be Palestine and the Jews. 



3. The scene of the next great war will be Palestine and 

 Jerusalem. 



4. The war will be called Armageddon. 



When is the Northern League of Nations to come int< 

 being? A study of Ezekiel xxxviii. and xxxix. leaves us in no 

 doubt on this point. Ezekiel xxxvih. S, ** After many 

 day .... in the latter years " v. 16, " In the latter days." 

 N.B. — These are unfulfilled prophecies. What is the Northern 

 League of Nations going to do I Ezekiel xxxviii. v. 10, " Thus 

 saith the Lord God : It shall come to pass in that day that things 

 shall come into thy mind, and thou shalt devise an evil device. 

 And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages ; 

 I will go to them that are at quiet, that dwell securely, all of 

 them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates. 

 To take the spoil and to take the prey ; to turn thine hand against 

 the waste places that are now inhabited, and against the people 

 that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and 

 goods that dwell in the middle of the earth. " 



^Yhat does Scripture predict with regard to the plan of cam- 

 paign of the Northern League of Nations ? Ezekiel xxx^-iii, 1 and 

 following, And the word of the Lord came to me, saying, 

 Son of man, set thy face toward Gog, of the land of Magog, the 

 prince of Eosh Meshech, and Tubal, and prophesy against him. 

 And say, Thus saith the Lord God, Behold I am against thee, 

 O Gog, prince of Eosh, Meshech and Tubal. And I will turn 

 thee about and put hooks into thy jaws and I will bring thee forth, 

 and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed in 

 full armour, a great company, with shield and buckler, all of 

 them handling swords: Persia, Cush and Put with them, all of 

 them with shield and helmet : Gomer and all his hordes, the 

 house of Togarmah in the uttermost parts of the north, and all 

 his hordes: even many people with thee." Who are these two 

 latter? Genesis x. tells us that Gomer is the son of Japheth, and 

 probably the forefather of the Teutonic races. Hebrew words 

 have no vowels, and in Hebrew, G.M.E. being the root letters of 

 both Germany as well as Gomer fvide Eev. C. H. Titterton's book 

 on " Armageddon "). Togarmah is the son of Gomer, geographi- 

 cally connected with AiTnenia. possibly the forefather of the 

 Turcoman, or Turk The Northern League of Nations is to com- 

 prise, therefore, of Eussia, Germany, Turkey, Persia, Abyssinia- 

 and part of the Sudan. Ezekiel xxxviii. 14 reveals how- the 

 northern nations will act. " Therefore, son of man, prophesy and
