Rome and Turkey in Connexion with the Second Advent

A collection of sermons written in the late 19th century. The book discusses the implications of political events in Rome and the Ottoman Empire in relation to Christian eschatology, particularly focusing on the anticipated Second Advent of Christ. Hoare presents his insights as a vicar and Canon, framing the political landscapes of his time within the context of biblical prophecy. The content of the book is deeply theological, linking the decline of the Ottoman Empire and the condition of the Church of Rome with the prophetic expectations of the Second Advent. Hoare explores various aspects of scriptural prophecy, particularly analyzing the relevance of the Euphrates River as a symbol of the Ottoman Empire's decline and the implications of Rome's historical and spiritual authority. He emphasizes the need for believers to remain vigilant and prayerful in anticipation of Christ's return, reinforcing the connection between current events and longstanding biblical teachings. Through carefully articulated arguments, he urges his audience to consider the urgency of their spiritual readiness in light of the signs of the times.
