Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Lectures on Romanism Every one who has studied the Holy Scriptures, is familiar with the remarkable prediction therein recorded, of the rise and reign of a certain mighty power; the greatest and most deadly enemy to the church of God, and the liberties of mankind. By Daniel, from the lofty mount of inspiration, his approach was first descried. He is introduced to him, in vision, as the "little horn;" and his rise is fixed in general terms as posterior to certain great political events. This "horn," or power, "diverse from the first," we cannot discover in any Pagan or Moslem nation. Indeed, the attempt to discover it there, instead of a Christian country, would be a positive violation of the truth of the divine prediction. The "little horn" sprung up after the rise of the fourth great beast of Daniel, which is admitted by every sound writer, to be the Roman empire. That was the power which "letteth, and did let, until it was taken out of the way," of the little horn. Hence it sprung up after the fall of the Roman pagan empire. For it sprung up after the rise of the "ten horns." But there were no ten horns, or ten distinct kingdoms in Europe previous to the fall of the pagan empire of Rome. Hence this new and "diverse horn," rose in no Pagan or Moslem country. It sprung up in Christian Europe. Besides, it is described by the spirit of inspiration as an apostacy, or "a falling away" from the Christian faith. 2 Thess. ii. 3. 1 Tim. iv. 1. This can be applied to no Pagan or Mohammedan power. These never were in the church of God. In no sense, therefore, can they be called an apostacy from the Christian faith. Thus we get rid of the argument of the Romish doctors who refer this prediction to the persecuting power of Rome Pagan. There is another identifying circumstance.
