Studies in the Scriptures, Series III — Thy Kingdom Come (1,595,500 Edition), “Chapter X — The Testimony of God's Stone Witness and Prophet, the Great Pyramid in Egypt”
“Thus the Pyramid witnesses that the close of 1914 will be the beginning of the time of trouble such as was not since there was a nation”
A printing issued after 1914 had come and gone still carries the sentence in the future tense, and still carries, on p. 364, the statement that ‘The four years from 1910 to the end of 1914 … will doubtless be a time of “fiery trial” upon the Church’.

Notes. A printing made four years after 1914 still carries the sentence about 1914 in the future tense, and still carries on p. 364 the statement that the four years from 1910 to the end of 1914 "will doubtless be" a time of fiery trial upon the Church.
