About the author
Born in Concordville, Pennsylvania, in 1845, Isaac Massey Haldeman was ordained to the Baptist ministry in 1870. Before settling in New York, he served churches in Pennsylvania and Delaware.
In 1884, he was called to First Baptist Church in New York City, where he remained pastor for the rest of his life. Contemporary reference works describe him as a prominent Baptist preacher and an important spokesman for the emerging fundamentalist movement, especially through his preaching on biblical prophecy and premillennialism.
Haldeman also wrote widely. Catalogs and library records list books such as How to Study the Bible, The Coming of Christ, The Signs of the Times, Christian Science in the Light of Holy Scripture, and The Tabernacle, Priesthood, and Offerings. He died in 1933.
