Never was preparation for war so tremendous and so
sustained. Never was striking power so swift and so terribly
formidable.... The shadow of conflict and of displacement
greater than any which mankind has known since Attila and his
Huns were stayed at Chalons, is visibly impending over the
world. Almost can the ear of imagination hear the gathering of
the legions for the fiery trial of peoples, a sound vast as the
trumpet of the Lord of hosts."--_Quoted in the Literary Digest,
May 6, 1911._

In prophecies of the gathering of the nations for the last great
struggle, Inspiration draws aside the veil, and allows us to see the
agencies that have been stirring up the world for the war. As the
prophet John was shown in vision the scenes of the last days, he saw the
invisible powers of Satan, "the spirits of devils," going forth "unto
the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the
battle of that great day of God Almighty.
