66. and more recently, Spurgeon,
Bishop J.C. Ryle and Dr. Martyn
Lloyd-Jones; these men among

of the Papacy as the antichrist….
The Reformers and their heirs
were great scholars and knew the
Word of God and the Holy Spirit as
a living teacher.”
- All Roads Lead to Rome, pp. 205, 206

67. “Martin Luther was the first to
identify the papacy as such with
the Antichrist. At first he
discounted the value of John’s
Apocalypse. But then he saw in it
a revelation of the Church of Rome
as the deceiving Antichrist… a
view that was to become dogma
for all Protestant churches.”

he is not a Jew,
which is one
outwardly;
neither is that
circumcision,
which is
outward in the
flesh:

82. Rom 2:29 But

which is one
inwardly; and
circumcision is
that of the heart,
in the spirit, and
not in the letter;
whose praise is
not of men, but
of God.

83. Rom 9:6 Not as though the word of
God hath taken none effect. For

children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed
be called.

ye Abraham's seed, and

are counted
for the seed.

be saved:

92. Mat 24:42, 44 Watch therefore:

Lord doth come. But know this,
that if the goodman of the house
had known in what watch the
thief would come,

93. Mat 24:42, 44 …he would have
watched, and would not have
suffered his house to be broken
up. Therefore be ye also ready:
for in such an hour as ye think
not the Son of man cometh.

94. Mat 24:42, 44 …he would have

come as a thief in the night;

96. 2Pe 3:10 But the day of the Lord will

shall be burned up.

eagles be gathered together.

104. Mat 24:28 For wheresoever the carcass
is, there will the eagles be gathered
together.

105. “But as the
days of Noe
were, so
shall also
the coming
of the Son
of man be.”
- Matt. 24:37
