Bible Proves That
The Kaiser Is Doomed

In his sermon, Kaiser Doomed" "
Asserts the Bible" Evangelist Hop
kins, who is conducting a series of
meetings in a tent at Sixth avenue
and + street, northwest, said last
night:
The German kaiser will never
dominate this world, nor even af-
fairs in Europe. His ambitions will
be blasted, because the Word OF
God specifically declares that all
his efforts to establish an universal
empire will come to naught"
Mr.. Hopkins, who has been a
close student of the Bible, prophe-
cies relating to present day events,
based his remarks on the second
chapter of Daniel, which, he said,
gives comprehensive record of the
history of the world from the days
of Babylon down to the setting up
of the fifth universal kingdom,
which will have Christ himself as
king. He said no matter how des
pcrate may be the efforts of the
kaiser to subdue the nations fight
ing against him, he will fail Just as
rulers before him have failed, be-
cause the prophet was shown that
after the division OF the Roman en-
pire, this divided state would re-
main until the day when Christ
should set an everlasting kingdom,
which should never pass away.
Rise and Fall of Nations
twenty-five centuries ago, Dan
iel, the prophet, while in the courts
of Babylon holding the position of
premier of the mighty empire, inter
preted dream given to Nebuchad-
nezer, the king, which portrayed
the rise and fall of nations, culmi-
mating in the establishing OF Gods
everlasting kingdom, he continued;
in this dream the king was shown
an image of man, whose head was
of gold, breast and arms of silver,
sides of brass, legs of iron and feet
part Of iron and art of clay. Each
division represented an empire, the
head representing Babylon, the
breasts and arms Medo- Persia, the
sides Grecia, and legs Rome, while
the toes represented the ten king
doms in western Europe when Rome
was divided.
No Universal Ruler In Europe.
For as much as thou sawest the
iron, mixed with miry clay, and as
the toes of the feet were part OF
iron and part of clay, so the king
dom shall be partly strong and
partly broken. And whereas thou
sawest the iron mixed with miry
clay, they shall mingle themselves
with the seed of men, but they shall
not cleave one to another, even as
iron is not mixed with clay. :.
Is it not true that all the royal
families OF Europe are related
through the ties of blood? Notable
among these are the king of Eng
land, the former car of Russia and
the kaiser OF Germany, who are
first cousins. Notwithstanding
their close kinship, their countries
are engaged in this terrible war,
and their families are maddened
with hatred one toward another.
"In an interview the kaiser had with
the American ambassador, he re-
feued to the efforts that were be-
ing made TO starve Germany, an
he said before he would allow il,
he would blow up Windsor castle
and the entire royal family of Eng
and Notwithstanding that the
head of the royal family of Eng
land, King George, is his own
cousin. The Scriptures are veri-
fled They shall mingle themselves
with the seed of men, (intcrmarry),
but they shall not eleave one to
another" Who shall We believe
God or man? This state viii re-
main TIL the prophecy is fulfilled"
