Clarence Larkin: Found In My Late Father’s Bible

This coffee stained paper, written with Clarence Larkin’s (1850-1924) words from his 1918 book, Dispensational Truth, was tucked into my late father’s Bible. I originally posted this a decade ago but this time I could not get the original copy large enough to be read.

So I re-typed it.

  2. Christ came in His Father’s name John 5:43 — Antichrist will come in his own name John 5:43
