DANIEL AND THE REVELATION-Uriah Smith

                                 ~The Response of History to the Revelation~

                   garden  of  Eden.  There  God  was  supreme;


               Christ,  by  whom  God  made  all  things,  was


               recognized  and  honored;  God’s  law  was  the


               governing  rule;  a  spirit  of  true  worship,


               prompted by love, controlled man’s mind; the


               marriage relation was sacred; and the Sabbath



               was honored as God’s great memorial. In the

               crucified  afresh,  Christianity  denounced,  all


               restraint  broken  off  from  the  carnal  heart,


               worship discarded, the rest-day abolished, the


               marriage  relation  annulled,  and  society  rent


               into  mournful  fragments.  Let  Communism


               prevail,  and  such  is  the  state  of  society  we


               shall have again.



               The fruit of this agitation is appearing more


               and  more  in  the  strained  relation  between


               labor and capital, all the time growing greater,
