THE JEFFS ARE A Feast TO
HIM

old Confederate soldier, and also a
preacher of the gospel of Christ. l
have been reading The Jeffersonian
and Watson's Magazine. They are a
feast to my soul. All you have writ
ten is the truth and nothing but the
truth. The preachers are beginning
to get their eyes open to the facts of
Roman Catholicism that you are Civ
ing them through your publications.
The socalled Democratic party and
the Republican party are deceiving
this American republic by joining
hands with the Pope. They go hand
and glove together against the
masses of the people, seeking power
and riches. The Apostle Paul, in
writing to the Thessalonians, told
them there would come a falling
away, a great apostacy from the faith
and practice of the gospel. The
words of the apostle clearly describe
that great system of spiritual ty-
ranny and wickedness of which the
papacy has ever been the central
power. These scriptures describe
the Man of Sin as VIGOROUSLY wicked
and doomed to final destruction.
See the Histories of Popes, John II.
and John VIII, of Marcellinus, Of
Hanorius, of whom the Council of
ConstantinOple say, eve have caused
him to be accursed;" of Eugenius,
whom the Council of Basic call "a
sinister, perjurer, wilful
heretic;" of John XIII; of Sextus
~; of Alexander VI, who, a papal
historian says, was one of the great
est and most horrible monsters in
Nature
The Pope and priesthood of the
Roman Catholic Church in all the
world oppose the gospel of Christ
as revealed in the Bible, and perse-
cute those who embrace it. See the
history of Wickliffe, Huss, and
Jerome of Prague, Of the Waldenses,
the 1nquisitiOn, Mary, Queen of Eng
land, Bartholomew Day in France.
Who invades the prerogatives of
God, pretending to be the head Of
the church, to forgive sins, and to
do what God Himself cannot do
grant indulgencies to commit sin?
See the History of Pope Leo X; of
the Archbishop of Megence; of
Tetzel and of Papal Indulgencies,
who practically annuls the laws of
God and substitutes for them the
law or commandments of men The
Council Of Trent decreed that who
soever shall say that it is not more
blessed to remain in virginity or
celibacy than in marriage let him be
accursed. The Pope says "Be care
full to preserve the people from read
ing the Bible. Shun with horror the
reading of such deadly poison"
See the catechism of DR.. James But
Ter, Dens' Moral Theology. Only
stop and think Called by his de-
luded followers our Lord God, the
POpe-anothcr God upon earth! No
wonder they issue bills against the
Bible being circulated in Italy. No
wonder their priests, even in the
United States, take the Bible away
from their people, and sometimes
burn it, because it denounces their
system as false and wicked, and de-
scribes those who are deluded by it
as believing lie. If the people
would read the Bible their unholy
system would stop.
Dear Mr.. Watson, 1 don't think
the Roman Catholic Church and the
department at the City of Washing
ton will try very hard to do much
against you. In doing so they will
expose their hellish work before the
whole civilized world. May God
bless you and the work you are
doing in order to reform the people
Of this great country, both politically
and religiously. May God our
Heavenly Father, spare you many
