BIBLE LESSON XXXIV
Jeremiah 39

Jeremiah 39
by Emma Curtis Hopkins
Jeremiah
wrote this history. All human history is but the transcription of a dream. It
never happened at all. If the circumstances and events and laws and phenomena
of human experience ever did take place — ever were set going by any being —
then there is no telling what may lie in wait for us after this experience and
no supposing of What happened before this was set going. Also there is no
possibility of admiring or loving their origin.
Strict
investigation of Scripture and strict logic compels us to see that “as from a
dream one awaketh,” so may we arise from all this phantasmagoria [1] now. “Now is the accepted time. Now is the day of salvation.”
[1] a shifting series of phantasms, illusions, or
deceptive appearances, as in a dream or as created by the imagination
