The Second Advent Of The Lord Jesus Christ: A Past Event (1845)

The Second Advent Of The Lord Jesus Christ: A Past Event (1845) is a book written by Robert Townley. The book explores the idea that the second coming of Jesus Christ has already occurred, and that it happened in the past. Townley argues that this event took place in the year 70 AD, during the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans. He provides evidence from the Bible and other historical sources to support his claim. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of the second advent. Townley discusses the signs and prophecies that led up to the event, as well as the consequences that followed. He also explores the implications of this belief for Christians, and how it affects their faith and understanding of the Bible. Overall, The Second Advent Of The Lord Jesus Christ: A Past Event (1845) is a thought-provoking and controversial book that challenges traditional Christian beliefs about the second coming of Jesus Christ.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Authors and San Francisco Market Street Railway members Walter Vielbaum, Robert Townley, Walter Rice, Emiliano Echeverria, and Don Holmgren present here a fantastic collection of images and ephemera to tell the San Mateo Interurban's story. Stops along the way include details about the line's richly appointed cars, the rebuilding after the 1906 quake, the "funeral cars" that ferried entire wakes to cemeteries in Colma, the introduction and demise of the gigantic "Big Sub" cars, the competition with the greyhound bus line, and the line's eventual abandonment due to the rising popularity of automobiles. It's a fun ride, and a tale of adversity, ingenuity, and creative financing that resulted in San Francisco's first trolley line to the outlying suburbs.
