The Pope – Chief of White Slavers, High Priest of Intrigue
Former Catholic priest Jeremiah J. Crowley exposes the Popes of Rome as evil tyrants whose interest is only money and power over as much of the world as possible.

The Seventh Vial Chapter XXIX. Harpers By The Sea Of Glass
When the angels began to pour out their vials, the harpers began their song, and they continued to sing during the whole period of the vials, filling up the pauses of the storm with their melody, which might be heard at times mingling with its thunders. They are described as they who had gotten the victory, or, more literally, are getting the victory, over the beast, which marks them out as the Protestant remnant, who, having escaped the pollutions of Popery, are now preserved by God from its plagues.

Under the Seventh Vial, the judgment takes a sudden enlargement. The cloud of wrath, which hitherto had hung suspended above the Latin earth, stretches out, and shrouds in its tempests both the north and the east, the seat respectively of Greek idolatry, and Mohammedan superstition.

The sin of the old Chaldean king was venial compared with that of his modern representative. The Vatican Mount has for ages been the scene of orgies more impious, more blasphemous, and more obscene, than any which the imperial Palatine ever knew, or any that shook the walls and roof of the royal palace of Babylon on that night, when the tumult was stilled at once and for ever, by the writing of the hand of doom.

These are the symbols of popular tumults, insurrections, and wars. This certainly predicts an uprising of all the nationalities of Europe. The great governments will lose their controlling power, and race will be seen warring with race, and party conflicting with party. This great battle of revolted and wrestling nationalities will rage from side to side of Europe, and will, not unlikely, include Western Asia as well.

And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done. And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not, since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great.”- Revelation 16:17-18

Ours is pre-eminently the age of great secret societies; and these societies are of three classes, corresponding in character, as they do in number, to the “three frogs” which were seen to go forth on their mission when the sixth vial was poured out. Among these societies that of the Jesuits holds a first place. Instituted about a quarter of a century after the Reformation, with the view of checking (hindering) the progress of the gospel, its numbers have prodigiously increased, and now they swarm in all the countries of Europe. Wider still, there is not a land on earth where they are not busy, intriguing, and conspiring.

One class of expositors thought that the “Euphrates” was put as the representative or symbol of that great empire of which it is the principal stream, and saw in the apocalyptic picturings the gradual exhaustion of the Turkish empire, and its ultimate and total subversion. Another class of interpreters were of opinion that the kingdom in question was to be sought for within the limits of the Papal earth, and that it must be a kingdom holding a pre-eminent rank as a supporter of the Papacy, and that it was most probably Austria.

The locality the fifth vial was to smite was the “seat,” or, as it is in the original, the “throne” of the beast: Rome, the papacy.

And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire. And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory. -Revelation 16:8-9

The sounding of the seventh trumpet introduces the seven vials. The particulars we have noted above form the general characteristics of that trumpet, and they strikingly agree with the historical facts of the French Revolution, the full details of which are given under the vials.
Continue reading →The Seventh Vial Chapter XIX. The Seventh Trumpet
The seventh trumpet was to introduce as eminently an era of “earthquakes,” that is, of revolutions; as an era of “hail-storms,” that is, of fierce wars, originating in a quarter of Europe lying to the north of Italy; as an era of “lightnings,” that is, of sudden explosions of popular wrath; as an era of the “dead,” that is, of the vindication of the good, and the condemnation of the bad, of past ages.

We now come to discuss the question of time. There is a certain period fixed by God between the birth and death of every man. The same Providence, by an irresistible decree, has numbered the days of the Man of Sin. Between his appearance above the dark flood, and his descent into his burning grave, an interval will elapse of twelve hundred and sixty years. This number occurs in the Apocalypse, in connection with the existence of Antichrist, not less than five times.

It is the ecclesiastical hierarchy which we take to be here symbolized. The vision brings the Pope again before us; in the beast of the sea he is seen as the ruling head of the ten Papal kingdoms; here he is beheld as the ruling head of the Papal clergy. This beast rose out of the earth—the symbol of the western empire in its tranquilized state had two horns like a lamb.

On May 5th, 1514, the Lateran Council declared, “There is an end of resistance to the Papal rule and religion: opposers there exist no more.” Exactly 3 and a half years later, on Oct. 31st, 1517, Martin Luther started the Protestant Reformation!

And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth and devoureth their enemies; and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed. These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy, and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues as often as they will.
