Only by changing Gods law could the papacy exalt itself above God;
whoever should understandingly keep the law as thus changed would be given supreme honor to that power wich change was made.Such an act of obedience to papal laws would be a mark of allefiance to the pope in the place of God...
the papacy has attempted to change teh law of God..
The second commandment ,forbidden image worhip, has been dropped from the law,and the fourthcommandment has been dropped from the law, and thefourth commandment has been changed as to autorize the observance of the first instead of the seventh day as the Sabbath. But papist urge as a reason for omitting the second commandment, that it is unnecessary, being included in the first, and that they are giving the law exactly as God designed it to be understood .This cannot be the change foretold by the prophet.An intentional, deliberate change is brought to view: "He shal think to change times and Laws. The change in the fourth commandment exactly fulfills the prophecy.For this change the only autority claimed is that of the church. Here the papal power openly sets itself above God.
