Born in Putney, London, England and emigrating to Canada
for work, he settled later in America and became one of Christianity's most
honoured and respected Bible exponents. Read his biography, look at some of his
works, and wonder how an ordinary mortal could find time and energy to do it!
They didn't have the TV in those days, but everyone else found plenty to do
without it, and Grant's achievements are amazing, and his insights into the
true meaning of Holy Scripture are absolutely wonderful. Follow the links to
see some of the extracts from his "Numerical Bible" and see for
yourself.
One of the group of Christians known to the world as "Plymouth
Brethren", a title rejected by them as inaccurate and sectarian, he became an
"Exclusive" meaning he accepted separation form those deemed to be walking
disorderly. He was a warm and friendly character, however, as you can read in
his biography.
This site is being as used as a centre for "brethren"
resource material wider than that written by Grant, however, as the movement is
incredibly rich in wonderful biblical riches. So use the links page for loads
of good stuff and please email me if you wish to ask questions. For anyone out
there wanting to know why we Christians bother with all this stuff, I suggest
you click HERE or on "God's Plan" below the books.
(The books should be beneath God's plan, really.......)
Some Quotes....
"It is the character of the Word of God to leave
something to be the reward for diligence." (FW Grant)
Joseph of
Arimathea and Nicodemus "wrapped that incorruptible body in spices, for it
is to be fragrant for evermore to all His people as the death like which there
is no other," observed F. W. Grant.
"The thought of a ruined condition
of the earth succeeding its original creation...is required by the typical
view" (F. W. Grant).
