Sinopsis

Excerpt from Discourses Showing the Structure and Unity of the Apocalypse, Vol. 1 of 3

From the flood to the birth of Christ, affairs ran on in a similar course. The church of God was tempted and seduced, or persecuted and oppressed by her enemies. But by the gracious interpositions Of her God she was delivered; and by his might, made victorious. In herself she is weak, but in the Lord and in the power of his might, she is strong. The church makes her first appearance as a body of any considerable magnitude, during this period, in Egypt, where she is persecuted and oppressed, and all her members treated as bondmen and slaves. Pha raoh, the chief agent in this persecution, is, on account Of his voracious and unrelenting cruelty, called a Dragon. From his face the church fled into the wilderness; and he, in attempting to follow, was overwhelmed and carried awav of the flood. In the wilderness she was opposed by the arms of Moab, and by the counsel of Balaam.
