The book is a compilation of lectures and essays published in conservative publications Truth and Grace, The Moody Monthly, and the Defender Magazine. It is written from a premillennial perspective, and with the conviction that other millennial perspectives are all wrong.
Here are the chapters of the book:
1. The Perils of Socialism and Communism
2. The Peril of he Apostasy
3. Demon Perils
4. The Perils of False Christs and False Prophets
5. Perils on Earth and Signs in the Heavens
6. Perils of War and Armageddon
As one would expect, the author sees the world as being in the last days, although he does not attempt to name a specific date. As was done, and continues to be done by some others of the premillennial view of history, Patmont literally correlated events of the day to Scripture. To him it was "obvious" and "clear" what had transpired and what little remained to happen as prophesied in Scripture. I found it interesting that Hitler played a lesser role as a peril (he believed Hitler's days were numbered because he had a throat infection) compared to named perils of Mussolini and Soviet communism. Again, one has to keep in mind the time the book was written.
I found the book helped me better understand the thinking that seemed to be a driving force in the life of the author for many years (he died in 1957). I am glad to have read the book.
The book is available in many libraries and may readily be purchased from used book outlets.… (más)
