DANIEL AND THE REVELATION-Uriah Smith

                                 ~The Response of History to the Revelation~

                                                Chapter 7 – The Sealing
                   From  the  foregoing  reasoning,  facts,  and


               declarations  of  Scripture,  two  conclusions


               inevitably follow: —




               1. The seal of God is found in connection with


               the law of God.



               2. The seal of God is that part of his law which

               commandments.  We  have,  then,  but  to


               examine these commandments to see which


               one it is that constitutes the seal of the law, or,


               in  other  words,  makes  known  the  true  God,


               the  law-making  power.  The  first  three


               commandments  mention  the  word  God;  but
