godly. Yes, he shall "be brought down to hell (sheol),
They that see him shall

look upon him and consider him, saying, "is this THE MAN
that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms;
that made the world as a wilderness and destroyed the
cities thereof?" Isa. 14:15-17.
We would call special attention to the fact that antichrist
23 and that the Greek words
denies the Father and the Son,
in 2 Thes. 2:7-8 should be rendered "the mystery of law-
lessness" "the lawless one." This, we think, gives an
alarming significance to the atheistic and lawless trio of
socialism, nihilism and anarchy, so rapidly spreading in
our day, and which seeks to wipe out all law relating to
marriage, property, etc.
It may be that these are the immediate precursors of
antichrist. At any rate, he is surely coming, and sad in-
deed is the thought of a godless world, rushing on to such
a culmination of evil.*

antichrist; the rebuilding of Babylon, as Satan's earthly
capitol and the headquarters of commercialism, its com-
plete overthrow and destruction, and other co-relative
events, see the author's pamphlet, "Satan, his kingdom and
its overthrow." P. H. Revell Co., Chicago, New York, etc.
