Cursed be the man before the Lord,
that riseth up and buildeth this city Jericho.
Joshua 6:26
"Since he was cursed who rebuilt Jericho, I much more the man who
labours to restore Popery among us. In our fathers' days the gigantic
walls of Popery fell by the power of their faith, the perseverance of
their efforts, and the blast of their gospel
trumpets; and now there are
some who would rebuild that accursed system upon its old foundation. O
Lord, be pleased to thwart their unrighteous endeavors, and pull down
every stone which they build.
We must warn with judicious boldness those who are inclined towards the
errors of Rome; we must instruct the young in gospel truth, and tell
them of the black doings of Popery in the olden times."
Charles Spurgeon
