In a sermon at the centenary of the establishment of the Roman Catholic hierarchy in the United States, in 1889, Archbishop Ireland said: “Our work is to make America Catholic.... Our cry shall be, ‘God wills it,’ and our hearts shall leap with crusader enthusiasm.” The theory of the National Reformers is thus expressed: “Every government by equitable laws, is a government of God; a republic thus governed is of Him, and is as truly and really a _theocracy_ as the commonwealth of Israel.”—“_Cincinnati National Reform Convention_,” page 28. 10. How does this association regard the Catholic Church on this point? “We cordially, gladly, recognize the fact that in South American republics, in France and other European countries the Roman Catholics are the recognized advocates of national Christianity, and stand opposed to all the proposals of secularism.... _Whenever they are willing to cooperate in resisting the progress of political atheism, we will gladly join hands with them_ in a world’s conference for the promotion of national Christianity, which ought to be held at no distant day. Many countries could be represented only by Roman Catholics.”—_Christian Statesman, Dec. 11, 1884, official organ of the National Reform Association._ 11. What has the Pope commanded all Catholics to do? “First and foremost, it is the duty of all Catholics worthy of the name and wishful to be known as most loving children of the church ... to endeavor to bring back all civil society to the pattern and form of Christianity which we have described.”—_Encyclical of Pope Leo XIII, __“__Immortale Dei__”__ Nov. 1, 1885, __“__The Great Encyclical Letters of Leo XIII,__”__ page 132._ NOTE.—The prophecy says that this power will make an image to the Papacy. In the days of Constantine and his successors, the church made use of the civil power to carry out her aims: through this means the Papacy was developed. In our own day the same theory is advocated, and prominent men in the nation, in both church and state, are doing all they can to bring about the same result, which, when their work is completed, cannot fail to fulfil the specifications of the prophecy. The climax will be an image of the Papacy. 12. What is the object of the International Reform Bureau? “The Reform Bureau is the first ‘Christian lobby’ established at our national capital to speak to government in behalf of all denominations.”—“_History of the International Reform Bureau_,” by its founder and superintendent, Rev. W. F. Crafts, page 2. NOTE.—The securing of compulsory Sunday legislation is one of the chief objects of this and other like organizations. See pages 61 and 65 of the above-named work. 13.
