All prophetic writings, if they are in accordance with the Bible, deserve our full assent.

However, the prophet uses the language of his time and writes within a specific sociocultural and spiritual context, sometimes very different from our own, and occasionally applies general principles to individual cases. To correctly interpret prophetic messages and apply them accurately, we must understand this context, which will allow us to appropriately put into practice the sound principles of interpreting inspired writings.

Therefore, it is necessary, and highly advisable, to read this INTRODUCTION before delving into the vast literary output of the Lord's messenger for the end times.
