Truth Triumphant - Benjamin G. Wilkinson

Preface
The author sends forth this book with the hope
that it may open a new world to its readers. The
prominence given to the Church in the Wilderness
in the Scriptures establishes without argumentation
the existence of such an organization, and
emphasizes its importance.
Appealing for attention to this thrilling theme,
the writer has sought to bring together in a
comprehensive view the forceful, even if at times
apparently disjointed, narrative of the Church in
the Wilderness in different countries. The
cumulative character of the historical proof will be
clear to the seeker after truth. Supported by the
many converging lines of evidence, the author
believes that he has opened new doors into the
realm of history in which the providence of God
has a most prominent place.
While the author has used a great number of
original sources, he has also entered into the labors
of many scholars and writers who have gone before
