DANIEL AND THE REVELATION-Uriah Smith

                                 ~The Response of History to the Revelation~

                                       Chapter 16 – The Plagues Poured Out
                   Reader, if such were the desolating effects of


               a hailstorm of ice, which discharged stones the


               size of a man’s fist, weighing at most a pound


               or so, who can depict the consequences of that


               coming storm in which “every stone” shall be

               temple of heaven from the throne, saying, It is


               done!” Thus all is finished. The cup of human


               guilt  has  been  filled  up.  The  last  soul  has


               availed  itself  of  the  plan  of  salvation.  The


               books are closed. The number of the saved is


               completed. The final period is placed to this
