An Image to the Beast

"Study to show thyself approved unto God."
Lesson X.—Sabbath, March 7, 1896.

An Image to the Beast.

Review Questions.—(a) From what did the Protestant churches soon depart? (b) What soon became their condition as regards unity of doctrine? (c) What is the spiritual condition of these divided churches? (d) What unscriptural dogma is held by them in common? (e) To what is appeal made that the Sunday sabbath may be established?
1. When a backslidden and divided church unites with the state, what always results?
“And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.” Rev. 14:8.
2. What warning does the Lord in love still send to his people?
“And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, the same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb; and the smoke of their torment ascendeth up forever and ever; and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name. Here is the patience of the saints; here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.” Verses 9–12. See note 1.
3. Against what three things does this message warn?
“And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand.” Verse 9.
4. What have we found the beast to be?
Ans.—The Papacy. But note that the “beast” is not the Roman Catholic Church as such, nor the Papacy as meaning the church. It is the union of that church with the state.
5. What occurred in 1798?
“And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death.” “And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.” Rev. 13:3, and verse 11.
6. Was this to be the end of the first beast power?
“And his deadly wound was healed; and all the world wondered after the beast.” Verse 3. See note 2.
7. What scriptures show that it will be an active, living oppressor of God’s people in the last great conflict? Rev. 14:9–12; 13:14; 15:2; 16:10; 19:19, 20.
8. What power did the prophet see arising when the papal beast went into captivity (A.D. 1798)?
“And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.” Rev. 13:11.
9. What prominent characteristics did the beast possess?
“And he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.” Verse 11.
10. Of what are a lamb and a dragon symbols?
“And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.” “And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world; he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.” Rev. 5:6; 12:9.
11. What would the two horns symbolize?
Ans.—“Horn” is a symbol of exaltation, power, and honor. 1 Sam. 2:1, 10. They would here indicate the two leading features in the government represented by the beast, which are Christian in origin, and which give the government its prominence and power.
12. What would be represented by “speaking like a dragon”?
Ans.—“Beast” represents government. A government speaks through its laws. Speaking like a dragon would therefore be to issue persecuting laws (Rev. 12:13) against the people of God.
13. To what, then, in the character of a government must the symbol of the two-horned beast apply?
Ans.—To a government just rising to power and prominence in 1798, which held professedly to two prominent Christian features that gave it prominence, and which, notwithstanding this, shall become a persecutor.
14. What two characteristics of Christianity apart from its spiritual power give it prominence in the world?
Ans.—Absolute equality of mankind (Acts 17:26), and absolute religious liberty or freedom to believe or not believe without coercion (John 12:47).
15. In what government alone can and do these specifications find fulfillment? Ans.—In the United States of America. See note 3.
16. How great power does the two-horned beast exercise, and for what purpose is it used?
“And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.” Rev. 13:12.
17. What was to be manifest in his territory, and in what fulfilled? Ans.—Fulfilling in Modern Spiritualism and other workings of Satan.
“And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, and deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.” Verses 13, 14.
18. What would these deceptions lead the people to do?
“Saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.” Verse 14.
19. What did the first beast represent, and what elements constituted it?
20. In what, then, would an image to the beast consist?
Ans.—In a union of church and state, or the church using the state for the furtherance of her own cause.
21. What law was to follow the making of the image?
“And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.” Verse 15.
22. What would be fulfilled in this?
“And he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.” Verse 11.

INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON

Lesson X.—Sunday, March 8, 1896.

TRUE LOVE TO ONE'S NEIGHBOR.

Lesson Scripture, Luke 10:25-37.
25. And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? 26. He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou? 27. And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbor as thyself. 28. And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right; this do, and thou shalt live. 29. But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbor? 30. And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead. 31. And by chance there came down a certain priest that way; and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. 32. And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side. 33. But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was; and when he saw him, he had compassion on him. 34. And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. 35. And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee. 36. Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbor unto him that fell among the thieves? 37. And he said, He that showed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.
(Memorize verses 25–27.)
Golden Text: “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbor as thyself.” Verse 27.
NOTE.—The meeting with the lawyer occurred after the transfiguration on the mount, and the sending out and return of the seventy. Jesus was on his way to Jerusalem, passing through Perea, the country east of the Jordan. Study the whole chapter.

NOTES.

1. A certain lawyer . . . tempted him.—The word signifies, to test, to put to trial, to tempt. Jesus came preaching the Gospel of the kingdom, and offering eternal life to all. He came to save men, and it is probable that the lawyer desired to dispute some portion of his doctrine. His question was not sincere, that is, he implied by his manner that he disbelieved. The question was no doubt designed, as were many that were put to Jesus, to provoke controversy and a show of feeling which would frustrate the work the Lord was doing. How often this is the experience of the servant of God now! And not infrequently strife and vain disputations carry the day. Here is the practical value of Christ’s attitude. Here he was tempted, even as we are. His work was doubted, even as is the mission of his followers. But while he drove home the truth, it was in love, and showed forth true meekness.
2. Thou shalt love the Lord, etc.—This was a well-known point of the law, and was familiar to the lawyer,—the man skilled in the law. In the reply is combined what Jesus himself defined as the basic principles upon which rested all the law and prophets. Matt. 22: 37-40. The law in its full form was the Ten Commandments,—the law of God,—and it was also a favorite word with the Jews, from the instruction of God himself, that the man who should do these commandments, should live in them. Lev. 18: 5. So Jesus here answered the lawyer with what was doubtless to him a familiar saying, as well, “This do, and thou shalt live.” And that is what the Jews had been trying to do, and had failed, for the reason that the work was attempted in their own strength. Here is where many fail now. Whoever believes he can escape sin by doing the works of the law, will be woefully disappointed, for the work of the law in sinful man is to reveal sin and death. “Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ.” Gal. 2: 16. “The just shall live by faith.” Gal. 3: 11. That is, faith of Jesus Christ, who, being without sin, was able to keep the law perfectly. We are therefore “justified by faith” in him. Rom. 5: 1. Without Jesus Christ no man can be saved, and to this conclusion the Saviour wished to draw the lawyer. For in Christ is life, and whosoever believeth on him hath eternal life. It can be obtained in no other way.
3. From Jerusalem to Jericho.—This was a portion of country well chosen by Jesus for the setting of his parable. “The road, or path—for there was no such road as is familiar to us—from Jerusalem went down literally, to Jericho, the descent in less than twenty miles being about 3,500 feet. It was also a very dangerous road, lying much of the way in a deep ravine through soft rocks in which caves and chambers abounded, affording shelter to miscreants, who from them sallied forth to prey upon travelers. It is still necessary to have an escort in passing over that road.”—Bliss. It was notorious for harboring robbers and brigands, and one portion was protected in ancient times by a fort and Roman garrison.
4. A certain Samaritan.—The introduction of this character into the parable in such a role required boldness and fearlessness in relating the incident to a Jew, for of all people the Samaritans were the most despised and hated by the Jews. Here the priest and the Levite, classes high in authority among the Jews, were placed in a decidedly unenviable light, while the decision of approbation could not help being given to one who was esteemed so low that to touch him meant defilement. But the incident was shaped in precisely this form in order that the lesson might be of the utmost weight.
5. Go, and do thou likewise.—The parable was told, the query was propounded as to who the neighbor was, and the lawyer himself immediately answered, “He that showed mercy on him.” Here, then, with the words, “Go, and do thou likewise,” was the full reply, driven home, to his first question, “What shall I do to inherit eternal life?” The Lord desires mercy, rather than sacrifice (Micah 6:6-8), and in the manifestation of this quality there will be no questioning as to who is our neighbor, for every one in need is such, without reference to age, social condition, or color. True and unfeigned love for the needy—the neighbor—must necessarily be accompanied by love to God, for God himself is love, and the God of mercy. The manifestation of these principles in the works which they bespeak, must therefore be that which leads to inheriting eternal life, for it is the keeping of the commandments of God, and the justification of the man, all through the faith of Jesus Christ, through whom alone is the knowledge of God and his righteousness. With this way the lawyer was unacquainted. The pertinent question now is, Am I acquainted with my neighbor?

CYCLONE WASHER.

The accompanying cut illustrates the Cyclone Washer, which we claim to be the best washing machine on the market.
1. Because it will wash clothes in less time than any other machine.
2. It will wash them cleaner and with less labor than is required to operate any other machine.
3. It will wash anything from a napkin to a bed comfort with equal success. There is absolutely no wear on the clothes, as the dirt is removed by the air forcing the water through the fabric, thus removing the dirt.
4. It will neither shrink nor swell, and, with care, will last a lifetime. It is a fine seller, because it will demonstrate all we claim for it.
Agents wanted everywhere. For particulars and circulars address Coon Bros., 137 South Washington Street, Battle Creek, Mich.
