E. J. Poole-Connor

Edward Joshua Poole-Connor (27 July 1872 to 20 January 1962) was an evangelical preacher and Christian leader whose ministry spanned a most turbulent period in British church life, from the time of Charles Spurgeon to the 1960s, and whose record and analysis of its events has been widely observed.

He edited this quarterly magazine, first founded in 1892 to defend the inerrancy of the Holy Scriptures. The magazine was started shortly after Charles Spurgeon's death. Following Spurgeon's lead in the Downgrade Controversy, he felt a strong responsibility to advocate ecclesiastical separation from churches he perceived to be in profound theological error. He wrote:

The FIEC is an association of churches, affiliated together in distinction from the other nonconformist denominations, which Poole-Connor perceived to be falling prey to serious defection from historic evangelical doctrine and practice. He was a founder member of the International Council of Christian Churches and opposed the ecumenism of the World Council of Churches, which he regarded as apostate.

He vigorously supported the defence of the free observance of Sunday worship, and helped administer the Lord's Day Observance Society, opposing encroachments upon this liberty.

He served as secretary to the North Africa Mission, later known as Arab World Ministries, between his two pastorates at Talbot Tabernacle.

Like Spurgeon, and many Puritan and Evangelical predecessors he held Restorationist views about Israel's return.
