by applying the right means for the support of their
physical strength and health, would have admitted.
But alas! they have been wantonly killed, when they
were least prepared for Heaven and best disposed for
the infernal regions! And others have been mangled
and wounded, so that they are crippled for all their
lifetime and also hindered in the right use of their
intellectual and moral faculties. And all who
were drilled for war, were instead of progressing in
virtue, retrogressing into corruption. Volumes
could be written on this point of the deepest humiliation
of the human race. Which are “the remote
and recent causes of the war in Europe?” The
book which occasioned this treatise, contains a series
of most detestable facts and proceedings as forerunners
of the eruption of the volcanoes of the infernal furies
which are destroying now in the wholesale human life
and property; because governments and nations are
not in truth, but in delusion and confusion, the necessary
consequence of which is destruction. Truth will
make you free. This is the teaching of the master
whose religion the belligerent parties profess with
words, while their actions are instigated by the infernal
furies. Also this book contains superabundance
of testimonies of our mission, which is expressed on
the title page. In my five German volumes published
within the years 1838 and 1842, the mystery of iniquity
of all governments which profess to be christian governments,
has been disclosed, and their highest duty has been
made evident to abolish those abominations and to unite
with us for the introduction of Christ’s reign,
which will be the universal Republic of Truth and
Justice, Harmony and Peace on the whole globe.
In those volumes as well as in all my following publications
it is made evident that Peace can never be established
on the globe in the present course of political and
ecclesiastical affairs, and that, what they call peace,
is only an armistice, during which the dragon and his
host are inspiring the governments to amass means
for new eruptions of revolutions and wars. The
book which occasioned this treatise, contains a collection
of testimonies confirming and illustrating our teaching,
that true peace cannot be established, till governments
and nations arrive on our ground. If the Emperor
of Austria would evacuate this moment all places which
he occupies in Italy, and if the Emperor of France
and his allies would have in sincerity no other object
in view, but the only one to make Italy perfectly
free, I mean to make Italy a true Republic, and would
sacrifice all their strength and influence to this
only object, they could not realize their object,
till they would learn and receive our message of Peace
and adopt the plan given in this book for the introduction
of the promised New Era. As long as they neglect
to do this, they remain under the influence of deluding
and destroying spirits. But these their masters
are so controlled by our leaders, that when the measure
