CHAPTER I.
POPERY AS PREDICTED IN SCRIPTURE.
The Court of Inquisition cruel and execrable--Christianity
benevolent--The Inquisition predicted, 2 Thess. ii. 3, 4; 1 Tim.
iv. 1-3; Rev. xvii. 1-18--Comments by Elliott, Bp. Newton, and
Scott.
Religion, as taught by the Romish priesthood, has been enforced and
guarded by pains and penalties during many ages. For the last _six_
centuries, this has been done chiefly by a court, denominated, in all
countries where it has been established, “THE HOLY INQUISITION.” But
this court has been execrated, in every country in which it has existed,
as the most dreadful, cruel, and sanguinary of all tribunals, even by
professors of the faith of Rome. Still it is supported by the papal
hierarchy, as the agents of the Pope may be able to obtain permission of
the governments who observe the Romish religion.
