Papal Influence and Prophecy

The despatches state that the pope has written a letter of felicitation to the German emperor on the twenty-fifth anniversary of his imperial reign. The pope is becoming more and more popular with the crowned heads of Europe, and they are seeking his counsels and his influence with ever-increasing solicitation. It is well for us to keep an eye on these things, because the prophecies of the book of Revelation unmistakably show that the power of the Papacy will unite Europe and the Orient in one great empire of world dominance and persecution, as a climax to this world's history, just before the second coming of Christ. The prophecy has spoken, and the events tending in that direction are unmistakable.
