"The Theocratic Kingdom of Our Lord Jesus, the Christ," by George Peters. Contains all 3 volumes published in 1884. The 63.3 MB pdf file contains bookmarks to where Peters critiqued Charles Taze Russell and N.H. Barbour regarding their belief that Christ returned invisibly to the earth in 1874. Barbour and Russell were associated together in the 1870s and from them arose the Bible Student movement and later Jehovah's Witnesses. After severing ties with Barbour, C.T. Russell began publication of The Watch Tower magazine in 1879. This file contains numerous references to Russell's and Barbour's writings. Volume 3 of the Theocratic Kingdom was dedicated to W.H. Conley, who was first president of the Watch Tower Society from 1881 to 1884 (see Jehovah's Witnesses: Proclaimers of God's Kingdom, p. 576), but who later left fellowship with Russell.
