Excerpt from An Historical and Critical Account of the So-Called Prophecy of St. Malachy Regarding the Succession of Popes The knowledge of the future belongs properly to God. This knowledge pertains not to the nature either of an angel or man; and if angels and men do foretell future events, they do so as mere agents or instruments according to the revelation they te ceive for the time being. As to what extent the angels of darkness can foretell, it is not easy to de cide. Certain it is they have no knowledge of the contingent future; that is to say, of the future pro perly so called, except what God for his own wise ends may give them. They are false prophets, how ever, as far as we are concerned, for we can never place confidence in them. They can at any rateknow things which are beyond our knowledge. This arises from their nature as Spirits, as well as from their knowledge of causes which are now present, though hidden from us. Thus, for instance, it would be no prophecy for the evil Spltlt to inform me that I was to receive a letter from a far-away friend some weeks or months hence. The Spirit of darkness could have seen the friend write the letter, and in a twinkle have winged his flight here to inform me of the fact. The demon may be also pretty successful in guessing the future. Fancy his natural cleverness and long experience. A knowledge of the future in man is usually a sign of great sanctity, for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy (apoc. Xix. Xc). But the Spirit of prophecy is not always a sign of sanctity, as for instance in the case of Balaam (numb. Sooth sayers and fortune-tellers may, perhaps, have been helped by the evil one in their predictions, and may have told things beyond the ordinary ken of mor tal; still it must not be forgotten that the devil is the father of lies, and the predictions of sooth sayers, even though inspired by him, cannot be trustworthy.

A much neglected field of study has been opened by the research of the author into the history of the Christian church from its apostolic origins to the close of the eighteenth century. Taking as his thesis the prominence given to the Church in the Wilderness in Bible prophecy, and the fact that “‘the Church in the Wilderness,’ and not the proud hierarchy enthroned in the world’s great capital, was the true church of Christ,” he has spent years developing this subject. In its present form, Truth Triumphant represents much arduous research in the libraries of Europe as well as in America. Excellent ancient sources are most difficult to obtain, but the author has been successful in gaining access to many of them. To crystallize the subject matter and make the historical facts live in modem times, the author also made extensive travels throughout Europe and Asia. The doctrines of the primitive Christian church spread to Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. As grains of a mustard seed they lodged in the hearts of many Godly souls in southern France and northern Italy — people known as the Albigenses and the Waldenses. The faith of Jesus was valiantly upheld by the Church of the East. This term, as used by the author, not only includes the Syrian and Assyrian Churches, but is also the term applied to the development of apostolic Christianity throughout the lands of the East. The spirit of Christ, burning in the hearts of loyal men who would not compromise with paganism, sent them forth as missionaries to lands afar. Patrick, Columbanus, Marcos, and a host of others were missionaries to distant lands. They braved the ignorance of the barbarian, the intolerance of the apostate church leaders, and the persecution of the state in order that they might win souls to God. To unfold the dangers that were ever present in the conflict of the true church against error, to reveal the sinister working of evil and the divine strength by which men of God made truth triumphant, to challenge the Remnant Church today in its final controversy against the powers of evil, and to show the holy, unchanging message of the Bible as it has been preserved for t hose who will “fear God, and keep His commandments” — these are the sincere aims of the author as he presents this book to those who know the truth.
