John Nelson Darby
John Darby was a well educate Bible teacher in the U. K.. He lived from 1800 to 1882. Although he wrote on many Biblical topics he is known for this writings on the Futurist view of Biblical prophecy. I first read about him in 1974, but what I read, didn't speak well of him. The problem these days is that many people say and write something about what someone else says, but many times this is not accurate. I decided to read for myself what Darby wrote on Biblical prophecy. I discovered that he was not the wacko that he was made out to be when I first read about him in 1974. I've read many books now by authors from the 1700's and 1800's. They're all worth reading. Darby is worth reading if you want to understand how and why present day Prophetic Futurists believe as they do. Don't take other people's word about Darby. Read him for yourself.
