Josiah Litch predicting Fall of Turkey with
Bible in 1838
"In the year 1838, two years prior to the
above date, Josiah Litch, one of the Advent believers, of Boston, Mass. published
the statement, based upon the above [below here] calculation, that the Ottoman
supremacy would cease on the 11th day of August, 1840. Being challenged as to
how much he would venture on the prediction, he said, "I will stake my
belief in the inspiration of the old Book [meaning the Bible] that the event
will transpire on that day." It is a remarkable historical fact that the
ultimatum drawn up by the great powers (England, Austria, Prussia, and Russia),
dictating terms of settlement with the pasha of Egypt, with whom the Porte was
then at war, was submitted to the Turkish Government for acceptance, and by the
sultan's agents was placed in the hands of the opposing ruler, ON THE 11TH DAY
OF AUGUST, 1840. By the acceptance of this ultimatum, the independence of the
Ottoman power came to an end, and it has since existed only on sufferance of
the powers." Source: Sabbath School Quarterly on Daniel
