Royalty and Ruin. As part of the Conflict of the Ages series, Prophets and Kings stands out in its narration of both the ups and downs of God's people. From Israel's greatness under Solomon's reign, to her downfall during the Babylonian captivity, and the subsequent history up to the time of Christ, God always had His faithful few who stood for truth in every circumstance. Royalty and Ruin tells these fascinating experiences in modern English, and details the lives of so many godly men and women who have gone before us.
