| Summary |
"Rome, Turkey and Jerusalem" by Edward Hoare is a collection of sermons written in the early 20th century that examines prophetic interpretations of historical events related to these three significant locations. The author discusses the political climate of Turkey, the decay of its empire, and the implications for Christian eschatology, particularly concerning the anticipation of Jesus’ return and the re-establishment of Jerusalem. The book blends history, prophecy, and theology to present a compelling argument about the nature of divine timing and fulfillment. The opening of the work introduces us to the reverend's viewpoint on the political decay of the Ottoman Empire, marking it as a significant prophetic fulfillment signalling the approach of the Second Coming. Using detailed biblical prophecy, Hoare outlines a clear connection between the current state of Jerusalem under foreign dominion and the eventual restoration of the city once the Gentile powers have fulfilled their prophetic timeline. He articulates a sense of urgency and hope for Christians, encouraging them not only to witness the observable decline of these ancient powers but also to prepare spiritually for Christ's imminent return.
