The Pope’s Claims and Prophecy

Cardinal Manning represents the pope as saying: “I acknowledge no civil superior; I claim to be the supreme judge on earth, and director of the consciences of men; of the peasant that tills the field, and the prince that sits on the throne, and of the Legislature that makes laws for kingdoms.”
This is significant; but a greater than Cardinal Manning has said:—
“I beheld then, because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake; I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed and given to the burning flame.” Dan. 7:11. “The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the Lord alone shall be exalted in that day.” Isa. 2:11.
