DANIEL AND THE REVELATION-Uriah Smith

                                 ~The Response of History to the Revelation~

                                             Chapter 6 - The Seven Seals
                   though the under shepherds, the professed


               ministers of Christ on earth, had no care for


               the flock, yet the Lord was not unmindful of


               them in this period of darkness. A voice comes


               from heaven. Re takes care that the spirit of


               worldliness does not prevail to such a degree



               that  Christianity  should  be  entirely  lost,  or


               that the oil and the wine, the graces of genuine


               piety, should entirely perish from the earth.

               seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say,

               pale horse: and his name that sat on him was


               Death, and Hell followed with him. And power


               was given unto them over the fourth part of


               the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger,


               and  with  death,  and  with  the  beasts  of  the


               earth.
