Matthew 24 SERIES: vs. 22

"Matthew 24:22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved; but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.

The Papacy was clothed with civil power to punish heretics for 1260

years; and had not the period of tribulation of the elect in the providence of God been shortened, the martyrdom of the church would have continued to 1798, in which event, according to the Scriptures, no flesh of the elect would have been saved."
