Here is volume one of the Collected works of this great scholar.The works included in this volume are The Coming Prince (1881), A Great Lesson (1894), Daniel in the Critic's Den (1895), Daniel the Prophet (1895), The Reasonableness of Hope (1895), A Personal Anti-Christ (1897), The Distinction between the Kingdom of Heaven and the Church (1901),Vision of the Six Seals and the Times of Restitution of All Things (1913), Election and Lordship (1913),and Unfulfilled Prophecy (1917).
Sir Robert Anderson, former chief inspector of Scotland Yard during the Jack the Ripper case, has been called "God's Secret Agent" and "Secret Agent Theologian" among many other titles. He is best known as a theologian. Here are his complete works refuting Biblical Criticism and the "Higher Criticism" using his keen analytical mind.
He was one of the most popular lay preachers and Christian apologists of his day: Sir Robert Anderson devoutly believed that the Bible was the inerrant word of God, and in this popular 1881 book-a companion to his Daniel in the Critics' Den-he mounts a defense of the prophetic Old Testament Book of Daniel, an early example of apocalyptic philosophy in Christianity. Students of the Bible will appreciate this historically valuable attempt to set straight the many controversies surrounding Daniel regarding its authorship and even the date of its writing. And anyone interested in the apocalyptic fervor of modern-day fundamentalist Christianity will find this an instructive and enlightening read. While at Scotland Yard, Irish police official and religious scholar SIR ROBERT ANDERSON (1841-1918) helped investigate the Jack the Ripper murders, but he is best remembered for his works of Bible study, including Forgotten Truths and The Silence of God.
Sir Robert Anderson (1841-1918) was an investigator with Scotland Yard, who turned his investigative skills to the book of Daniel. This book examines Daniel, especially the 70 weeks, and the coming of the Antichrist, but also provides apologetic evidence for the genuineness of the book of Daniel, examining its date and authorship. He is also the author of several other books such as, Forgotten Truths, The Lord From Heaven, Daniel in the Critics' Den, The Silence of God, Types in Hebrews, Redemption Truths, and more.

Sir Robert Anderson was an Assistant Commissioner of the London Metropolitan police, as well as a theologian and writer. Anderson's best known works include The Coming Prince, and The Silence of God.
The Silence of God (1897) has become a classic on the subject of why God has not directly intervened in the affairs of men for the past two thousand years. Here's how Anderson puts the question he addresses: "And to not a few this volume may be welcome as affording a clue to pressing difficulties which perplex and distress the thoughtful. Infidelity trades upon the silence of Heaven, the inaction of the Supreme. If there be a God, almighty and all-good, why does He not use His power and give proof of His goodness in the way men choose to expect of Him? The answer usually offered by the Christian apologist fails either to silence the opponent or to satisfy the believer. And rightly so, for it is lacking not only in cogency but in sympathy. The God of the Bible is infinite both in power and in compassion; and in other ages His people had public proof of this. Why, then, is He so silent?"
