The 2nd century B.C. Grecian king Antiochus Epiphanes, the central figure in Daniel ch. 8, was one of the most dreadful tyrants ever to persecute the people of God. This sermon emphasizes from the text that Antiochus was brought up by God against his church because of the sin and apostasy of the people and clergy. Their declension prior to Antiochus and suffering under him are illustrated from passages from the book of I Macabees and the record of Josephus. The sermon warns Christians today of the consequences of looseness and error in worship and doctrine. Those who seek to imitate the Greeks may be bringing upon the church fearful judgments.
