During these years he was the dominating intellectual factor of Boston, if not all New England. People went to Boston, for hundreds of miles, just to hear Parker, as they went to Brooklyn to hear Beecher.

God removed the scales from my eyes and I saw my lost condition. I saw myself in an entirely new light. I wept before God because of my sins. I was made very conscious that unless I was saved from my sins they would damn me in hell forever.

Therefore Babylon includes both Romanism and Protestantism the whole realm of formal churchianity; and beast-worship is here condemned in one of the most terrible denunciations found in all the Word of God.
