continue for seven times"-2,520
years. In other words, during the
same period that Israel would bo
having Seven times" Of tribulation
and subsection, the Gentiles would
be having seven times" Of prosper
ity; and both will terminate at the
same time-in 2,520 years from B. c.
606-October, A. d. 1914 If any be
disposed to dispute the exactness OF
these figures we need have no quar-
rel, but simply say that any difference
in the calculation must of necessity
be but small-possibly one year, pos
sibly twenty years-but in so long a
period how trifing would be such a
variation.
What we are especially interested
in are the facts of the case. and what
will occur when this long period
terminates.
"a The facts are. as already
noted in Israel's case. a national
subserviency for nearly seven hun
dred years. and a national destruc-
tion for more than 1900 years, and
so far as the Gentiles are concerned,
lease Of power for 2,520 years, as
follows: For (a) Babylon, the first
Universal Empire; (b) Medo-Persia,
the second Universal Empire; and
(a) Rome, the fourth Universal En-
pire. According to the Scriptural
view Of the matter, this fourth Uni
versal Empire is still represented IN
the Papacy and the various so-called
Christian governments Of the world.
These have practiced and pros
pered during this long period of Is
rael's subsection and the overturned
condition of Gods typical kingdom.
It is we'll to note particularly the
dream Of Nebuchadnezzar. as record
ed in Daniel ii, 31-45, and its inter-
probation by the Prophet Daniel.

The date, October. 1914, and the

Us remember, have nothing whatever

God hath spoken by the mouth of all
His Holy Prophets since the world
