And it came to pass that I saw among the nations of the Gentiles the formation of a great church. And the angel said unto me:
“behold the formation of a church which is most abominable above all other churches, which slayeth the saints of God, yea, and tortureth them and bindeth them down, and yoketh them with a yoke of iron, and bringeth them down into captivity.”
And it came to pass that I beheld this great and abominable church; and I saw the devil that he was the founder of it.
