which is known to have been framed on which is known to have been framed on the model of the grand original Council the model of the grand original Council the model of the grand original Council of pontiffs at Babylon the pope now of pontiffs at Babylon the pope now of pontiffs at Babylon the pope now pretends to Supremacy in the church as pretends to Supremacy in the church as pretends to Supremacy in the church as the successor of Peter to whom it is the successor of Peter to whom it is the successor of Peter to whom it is alleged that our Lord exclusively alleged that our Lord exclusively alleged that our Lord exclusively committed the Keys of the Kingdom of committed the Keys of the Kingdom of committed the Keys of the Kingdom of Heaven but here is the important fact Heaven but here is the important fact Heaven but here is the important fact that till the pope was invested with a that till the pope was invested with a that till the pope was invested with a title which for a thousand years had had title which for a thousand years had had title which for a thousand years had had attached to it the powers of the keys of attached to it the powers of the keys of attached to it the powers of the keys of Janos and sibil no such claim to Janos and sibil no such claim to Janos and sibil no such claim to preeminence or anything approaching to preeminence or anything approaching to preeminence or anything approaching to it was ever publicly made on his part on it was ever publicly made on his part on it was ever publicly made on his part on the ground of his being the possessor of the ground of his being the possessor of the ground of his being the possessor of the keys bestowed on the keys bestowed on the keys bestowed on Peter it was only in the 2 Century Peter it was only in the 2 Century Peter it was only in the 2 Century before the Christian era that the before the Christian era that the before the Christian era that the worship of cbil under that name was worship of cbil under that name was worship of cbil under that name was introduced into Rome but the same introduced into Rome but the same introduced into Rome but the same goddess under the name of carda with the goddess under the name of carda with the goddess under the name of carda with the power of the key was worshiped in Rome power of the key was worshiped in Rome power of the key was worshiped in Rome along with yanos ages before quote from along with yanos ages before quote from along with yanos ages before quote from oit oit oit fasty very early indeed did the bishop fasty very early indeed did the bishop fasty very early indeed did the bishop of Rome Show a proud and ambitious of Rome Show a proud and ambitious of Rome Show a proud and ambitious spirit but for the first three centuries spirit but for the first three centuries spirit but for the first three centuries their claim for Superior honor was their claim for Superior honor was their claim for Superior honor was founded simply on the Dignity of their founded simply on the Dignity of their founded simply on the Dignity of their sea as being that of the Imperial City sea as being that of the Imperial City sea as being that of the Imperial City the capital of the Roman world when the capital of the Roman world when the capital of the Roman world when however the seat of empire was removed however the seat of empire was removed however the seat of empire was removed to the East and Constantinople to the East and Constantinople to the East and Constantinople threatened to Eclipse Rome some new threatened to Eclipse Rome some new threatened to Eclipse Rome some new ground for maintaining the Dignity of ground for maintaining the Dignity of ground for maintaining the Dignity of the bishop of Rome must be sought that the bishop of Rome must be sought that the bishop of Rome must be sought that new ground was found in about 378 ad the new ground was found in about 378 ad the new ground was found in about 378 ad the pope fell hair to the keys that were the pope fell hair to the keys that were the pope fell hair to the keys that were the symbols of the well-known Pagan symbols of the well-known Pagan symbols of the well-known Pagan divinities at Rome Janos bore a key and divinities at Rome Janos bore a key and divinities at Rome Janos bore a key and siil bore a key these are the two keys

siil bore a key these are the two keys siil bore a key these are the two keys that the pope emblazons on his arms as that the pope emblazons on his arms as that the pope emblazons on his arms as the an signs of his Spiritual Authority the an signs of his Spiritual Authority the an signs of his Spiritual Authority how the pope came to be regarded as how the pope came to be regarded as how the pope came to be regarded as wielding the power of these keys will wielding the power of these keys will wielding the power of these keys will appear in the sequel but that he did in appear in the sequel but that he did in appear in the sequel but that he did in the popular apprehension become entitled the popular apprehension become entitled the popular apprehension become entitled to that power at the period referred to to that power at the period referred to to that power at the period referred to as certain now when he had come in the as certain now when he had come in the as certain now when he had come in the estimation of the pagans to occupy the estimation of the pagans to occupy the estimation of the pagans to occupy the place of the representatives of yanos place of the representatives of yanos place of the representatives of yanos and sibilia and therefore for to be and sibilia and therefore for to be and sibilia and therefore for to be entitled to Bear their keys the pope saw entitled to Bear their keys the pope saw entitled to Bear their keys the pope saw that if he could only get it believed that if he could only get it believed that if he could only get it believed among the Christians that Peter alone among the Christians that Peter alone among the Christians that Peter alone had the power of the keys and that he had the power of the keys and that he had the power of the keys and that he was Peter's successor then the sight of was Peter's successor then the sight of was Peter's successor then the sight of these Keys would keep up the delusion these Keys would keep up the delusion these Keys would keep up the delusion and thus though the temporal Dignity of and thus though the temporal Dignity of and thus though the temporal Dignity of Rome as a city should Decay his own Rome as a city should Decay his own Rome as a city should Decay his own dignity as the bishop of Rome would be dignity as the bishop of Rome would be dignity as the bishop of Rome would be more firmly established than ever on more firmly established than ever on more firmly established than ever on this policy it is evident he acted some this policy it is evident he acted some this policy it is evident he acted some time was allowed to pass away and then time was allowed to pass away and then time was allowed to pass away and then when the secret working of the mystery when the secret working of the mystery when the secret working of the mystery of iniquity had prepared the way for it of iniquity had prepared the way for it of iniquity had prepared the way for it for the first time did the Pope publicly for the first time did the Pope publicly for the first time did the Pope publicly assert his preeminence as founded on the assert his preeminence as founded on the assert his preeminence as founded on the keys given to Peter about 378 ad was he keys given to Peter about 378 ad was he keys given to Peter about 378 ad was he raised to the position which gave him in raised to the position which gave him in raised to the position which gave him in Pagan estimation the power of the keys Pagan estimation the power of the keys Pagan estimation the power of the keys referred to in 432 ad and not before did referred to in 432 ad and not before did referred to in 432 ad and not before did he publicly lay claim to the possession he publicly lay claim to the possession he publicly lay claim to the possession of Peter's keys this surely is a of Peter's keys this surely is a of Peter's keys this surely is a striking coincidence does the reader ask striking coincidence does the reader ask striking coincidence does the reader ask how it was possible that men could give how it was possible that men could give how it was possible that men could give credit to such a baseless assumption the credit to such a baseless assumption the credit to such a baseless assumption the words of scripture in regard to this words of scripture in regard to this words of scripture in regard to this very subject give a very Solem but very subject give a very Solem but very subject give a very Solem but satisfactory answer 2 Thessalonians 2:10

satisfactory answer 2 Thessalonians 2:10 satisfactory answer 2 Thessalonians 2:10 because they received not the love of because they received not the love of because they received not the love of the truth that they might be saved for the truth that they might be saved for the truth that they might be saved for this cause God shall send them strong this cause God shall send them strong this cause God shall send them strong illusion that they should believe the illusion that they should believe the illusion that they should believe the lie few lies could be more gross but in lie few lies could be more gross but in lie few lies could be more gross but in course of time it came to be widely course of time it came to be widely course of time it came to be widely believed and now as the statue of believed and now as the statue of believed and now as the statue of Jupiter has worshiped at Rome as the Jupiter has worshiped at Rome as the Jupiter has worshiped at Rome as the veritable image of Peter so the keys of veritable image of Peter so the keys of veritable image of Peter so the keys of yanos and siil have for ages been yanos and siil have for ages been yanos and siil have for ages been devoutly believed to represent the keys devoutly believed to represent the keys devoutly believed to represent the keys of the same Apostle while nothing but of the same Apostle while nothing but of the same Apostle while nothing but judicial infatuation can account for the judicial infatuation can account for the judicial infatuation can account for the credulity of the Christians in regarding credulity of the Christians in regarding credulity of the Christians in regarding these Keys as emblems of an exclusive these Keys as emblems of an exclusive these Keys as emblems of an exclusive power given by Christ to the pope for power given by Christ to the pope for power given by Christ to the pope for Peter it is not difficult to see how the Peter it is not difficult to see how the Peter it is not difficult to see how the pagans would rally around the pope all pagans would rally around the pope all pagans would rally around the pope all the more readily when they heard him the more readily when they heard him the more readily when they heard him found his power on the possession of found his power on the possession of found his power on the possession of Peter's Keys the key that the pope bore Peter's Keys the key that the pope bore Peter's Keys the key that the pope bore were the keys of a Peter well known to were the keys of a Peter well known to were the keys of a Peter well known to the pagans initiated in the caldian the pagans initiated in the caldian the pagans initiated in the caldian Mysteries that Peter the Apostle was Mysteries that Peter the Apostle was Mysteries that Peter the Apostle was ever Bishop of Rome has been proved ever Bishop of Rome has been proved ever Bishop of Rome has been proved again and again to be an erant Fable again and again to be an erant Fable again and again to be an erant Fable that he ever set foot into Rome is at that he ever set foot into Rome is at that he ever set foot into Rome is at best highly doubtful his visit to that best highly doubtful his visit to that best highly doubtful his visit to that City rests on no better Authority than City rests on no better Authority than City rests on no better Authority than that of a writer at the end of the 2 that of a writer at the end of the 2 that of a writer at the end of the 2 Century or beginning of the third Century or beginning of the third Century or beginning of the third meaning the author of the work called meaning the author of the work called meaning the author of the work called the clementines who Gravely tells us the clementines who Gravely tells us the clementines who Gravely tells us that on the occasion of his visit that on the occasion of his visit that on the occasion of his visit finding Simon marus there the Apostle finding Simon marus there the Apostle finding Simon marus there the Apostle challenged him to give proof of his challenged him to give proof of his challenged him to give proof of his miraculous and magical powers whereupon miraculous and magical powers whereupon miraculous and magical powers whereupon the the sorcerer flew up into the air the the sorcerer flew up into the air the the sorcerer flew up into the air and Peter brought him down in such haste and Peter brought him down in such haste and Peter brought him down in such haste that his legs was that his legs was that his legs was broken all historians of reputed have at
