CHAPTER THE FIRST.

THE RISE, PROGRESS, ESTABLISHMENT, AND

DESTRUCTION OF THE PAPAL POWER OR

ANTICHRIST.

As this was the greatest corruption of Christianity that was to be permitted to take place in the world, it cannot be thought extraordinary, that more of the Prophecies, which we have brought forward to the notice of the Reader in the Introductory Chapter, are applicable to it, than to any other branch of Antichristian Power. As both Mahometanism and Infidelity consisted more of open hostility, they were likely to be better distinguished by Christians, without the aid of such strong prophetical light, as that which is afforded to expose, and to bring into full view, the counterfeit Christianity of the Church of Rome.
