21、......................................................................................201manifest, that the Paganism which Rome has baptized is, in all its essential elements, the very Paganism which prevailed in the an
22、cient literal Babylon, when Jehovah opened before Cyrus the two-leaved gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron. That new and unexpected light, in some way or other, should be cast, about this very period, on
23、the Church of the grand Apostasy, the very language and symbols of the Apocalypse might have prepared us to anticipate. In the Apocalyptic visions, it is just before the judgment upon her that, for the first time, Joh
24、n sees the Apostate Church with the name Babylon the Great “written upon her forehead“ (Rev 17:5). What means the writing of that name “on the forehead“? Does it not naturally indicate that, just before judgment overta
25、kes her, her real character was to be so thoroughly developed, that everyone who has eyes to see, who has the least spiritual discernment, would be compelled, as it were, on ocular demonstration, to recognize the wonde
26、rful fitness of the title which the Spirit of God had affixed to her. Her judgment is now evidently hastening on; and just as it approaches, the Providence of God, conspiring with the Word of God, by light pouring in f
27、rom all quarters, makes it more and more evident that Rome is in very deed the Babylon of the Apocalypse; that the essential character of her system, the grand objects of her worship, her festivals, her doctrine and di
28、scipline, her rites and ceremonies, her priesthood and their orders, have all been derived from ancient Babylon; and, finally, that the Pope himself is truly and properly the lineal representative of Belshazzar. In the
29、 warfare that has been waged against the domineering pretensions of Rome, it has too often been counted enough merely to meet and set aside her presumptuous boast, that she is the mother and mistress of all churches--t
30、he one Catholic Church, out of whose pale there is no salvation. If ever there was excuse for such a mode of dealing with her, that excuse will hold no longer. If the position I have laid down can be maintained, she mu
31、st be stripped of the name of a Christian Church altogether; for if it was a Church of Christ that was convened on that night, when the pontiff-king of Babylon, in the midst of his thousand lords, “praised the gods of
32、 gold, and of silver, and of wood, and of stone“ (Dan 5:4), then the Church of Rome is entitled to the name of a Christian Church; but not otherwise. This to some, no doubt, will appear a very startling position; but i
33、t is one which it is the object of this work to establish; and let the reader judge for himself, whether I do not bring ample evidence to substantiate my position. Chapter I Distinctive Character of the Two SystemsIn l
34、eading proof of the Babylonian character of the Papal Church the first point to which I solicit the reader's attention, is the character of MYSTERY which attaches alike to the modern Roman and the ancient Babylonia
35、n systems. The gigantic system of moral corruption and idolatry described in this passage under the emblem of a woman with a “GOLDEN CUP IN HER HAND“ (Rev 17:4), “making all nations DRUNK with the wine of her fornicati
36、on“ (Rev 17:2; 18:3), is divinely called “MYSTERY, Babylon the Great“ (Rev 17:5). That Paul's “MYSTERY of iniquity,“ as described in 2 Thessalonians 2:7, has its counterpart in the Church of Rome, no man of candid
37、mind, who has carefully examined the subject, can easily doubt. Such was the impression made by that account on the mind of the great Sir Matthew Hale, no mean judge of evidence, that he used to say, that if the aposto
38、lic description were inserted in the public “Hue and Cry“ any constable in the realm would be warranted in seizing, wherever he found him, the bishop of Rome as the head of that “MYSTERY of iniquity.“ Now, as the syste
39、m here described is equally characterized by the name of “MYSTERY,“ it may be presumed that both passages refer to the same system. But the language applied to the New Testament Babylon, as the reader cannot fail to s
40、ee, naturally leads us back to the Babylon of the ancient world. As the Apocalyptic woman has in her hand A CUP, wherewith she intoxicates the nations, so was it with the Babylon of old. Of that Babylon, while in all i
