The Fall of Babylon

By Editor

THE FALL OF BABYLON.—We are sometimes accused of being very severe in our exposition of the second angel's message of Rev. xiv, and especially in applying the term Babylon to the popular churches of the land. But there is nothing reproachful in the term Babylon. It is only a name expressive of a great fact which is apparent to every one, namely, that the different religious creeds of the Protestant sects of the day, as compared with each other, are all "mixture" and "confusion." The trouble after all is, in the fall. And if any think we are too severe in this respect, let them read the extract from the sermon of E. Bowen, given in another column, who deals with this subject in as strong language as any S. D. Adventist has ever presumed to use.
