It might be possible even to show, that as the time for the great trial of nations hurries on, England has become the subject of, if such a phrase may be per mitted, a still more sensitive vigilance; and that not to haye sternly repelled the first temptation of the corrupt faith has In our later day been punished as a crime.

Excerpt from The Apocalypse of St. John, or Prophecy of the Rise, Progress, and Fall of the Church of Rome

There is the strongest reason for believing, that as Judaea was chosen for the especial guardianship of the original Revelation; so has England been chosen for the especial guardianship of Christianity.

The original Revelation declared the one true God; Paganism was its corruption, by substituting many false gods for the true. The second Revelation, Christianity, declared the one true Mediator; Popery was its corruption, by substituting many false mediators for the true. Both Paganism and Popery adopted the same visible sign of corruption, the worship of Images.

The Jewish history opens to us a view of the acting of Providence with a people appointed to the preservation of the faith of God. Every tendency to receive the surrounding Idolatries into a participation of the honours of the true worship, every idolatrous touch was visited with punishment, and that punishment not left to the remote working of the corruption, but immediate, and, by its directness, evidently designed to make the nation feel the high importance of the trust, and the final ruin that must follow its betrayal.
