This vintage hardcover edition of “The Coming Kingdom of Christ” by John R. Rice offers a fascinating glimpse into the mid-20th century evangelical Christian perspective on eschatology and the Second Coming of Christ. Rice, a prominent Baptist minister and author, presents his interpretation of biblical prophecies and his vision of the imminent establishment of Christ’s millennial kingdom on Earth. Published in the aftermath of World War II, this work reflects the apocalyptic mindset that permeated certain Christian circles during that tumultuous period. Despite its age and the wear on the dust jacket, this copy remains a well-preserved artifact that will interest collectors of vintage religious literature, as well as readers seeking to understand the diversity of eschatological beliefs within American Protestantism. Rice’s bold and uncompromising style, though controversial to some, made him a influential figure in the fundamentalist movement of his time.
