written by Brother Jobanus m the

His deceitful words will be appar-
ently Christian, but his deeds will be
those of a Nero and the Roman per-
secutors. An eagle will be on his arm
and on those of his ally, the other
bad monarch.
That one will be Christian but will
die under the curse of Pope Benedict
who will be elected at the beginning
of the reign of Ante -Christ.
Priests and monks will no longer
confess and absolve the combatants,
first because priests' and !monks will
fight with other citizens and also be-

Anti -Christ, it will be proclaimed that
all who fight against him will be saved
and if they die, go straight to Heaven

the monarch allied to the Anti -Christ.

will be slain than Rome ever held. It
will need the help of all the' kingdoms
for the Cock, the Leopard, and the
White Eagle will not overcome the
Black Eagle without prayers and the
aid • of the whole Human race. -
Never will the world have known
such a peril,, because the triumph of
Anti -Christ will be that of the devil
of wham he is the incarnation.
It has been said that twenty cen-
turies after the incarnation of the
world. the beast would appear in flesh
and threaten the world with as many
evils as the Divine incarnation brought
graces.
Towards the year 2,000, Anti -Christ
will appear; the number of his armies
will pass imagination; there will be
Christians among them, Mohammed-
ans, and fierce soldiers will be among
the champions of the Lamb.
For the first time the Lamb will
be quite red. There will not be in the
Christian world a place that will not
be red; the heavens, the earth, the
waters,, even 'the air will be red for
blood will flow through the elements
at that time.
The Black Eagle will throw itself
upon the Cock, who will lose many
feathers, but 'will strike bravely with
its spurs. It would soon be exhausted
but for the help of the Leopard and
its claws
The Black Eagle coming from the
country of Luther, will 'swoop by the
Cock from another direction and in-
vade half his country. ,
The White Eagle coming from the
north, will fall furiously on the Black
Eagle and the other Eagle and invade

The battles already fought will bee

about the destruction of the Anti -

When the beast finds himself losing

Anti -Christ will desire peace many
times but the seven angels that • go

of the threshing floor.
The three animals executing the
justice of the Lamb cannot cease fight-
ing so long as Anti -Christ shall have
any soldiers. -
'The decree of the Lamb is so un-
placeable because Anti -Christ pre-
tends to be Christian and acts in His
name. If he did not perish the fruits

of ed p
powers of hell would prevail against
the Saviour.
'IIt will be plainly seen that the fight-
ing at the places where the Anti -
Christ and his armies are massed, is
not human combat. The three cham-
pions of the Lamb will destroy the
army of:the Anti -Christ on the battle
field. A pyle will be made as large
as a city for the heaps of the slain
and will alter the face of the country
by three numbers.
Anti -Christ will lose his crown and
die in exile and madness; his empire
will be divided into 22 states and none
will have fortresses, armies or ships.
The White Eagle by command of
Michael will chase the . Crescent from
Europe which will be :all Christian
and establish at Constantinople.
There will,begin a time of universal
peace; there will be no more wars;
each nation will be • ruled according
to its desire and live in righteousness.
There will be no snore Lutherans or
Heretics, the Lamb will reign and the
happiness of humanity begin.
Happy those who' escape the perils
of this wonderful time. They will be
able to enjoy the fruits of it, the spirit,
and the reign,purification of humanity
which cannot be till the Anti -Christ
is destroyed.. "
