Mathew but now is the seven vials coming upon the Beast and his names and them that vvorship him for all these names in the vvhole Christendom is the Beasts names not the Saints but by reproach and now are the Reapers going forth vvith their sickle and are calling people from the vvorship of the Beast and his Image vvho had his seal to deceive them that dvvell upon the Earth the spirits of Devils vvorking miracles vvhich goes forth to the Kings of the Earth in the vvhole Earth to gather them to battel against the great day of the Lord God Almighty and blessed is he that keepeth his garment clean and the great Whore Mistery Babylon sits upon the Beast vvhose povver vvas from the Dragon vvhich all the World should vvorship but vvho hath their names vvritten in the Book of life and so she sits upon the beast in his several colours vvhich all Nations of the earth hath drunk of her cup committed fornication with her there the Woman is called the Church now here is your Church and she sits upon the waters and the waters are People Nations multitudes and tongues and she hath corrupted the Earth and made the inhabitants of the Earth drunk and the Kings of the Earth hath drunk of her cup and committed fornication with her but where hath been your Church all this time when the multitude are waters and Nations and tongues are waters and the Whore hath sat upon them all and the inhabitans of the Earth is drunk and she hath drunk the blood of the Martyrs and the blood of the Prophets and of the Saints now if Prophets blood be drunk and the Saints and Martyrs blood be drunk where is the true Church now and if the Prophets and Saints blood be drunk and the Woman fled into the Wilderness now where hath the true Church been Now again the Lamb and the Saints shall have victory the fall of Babylon shall be known the judgements of the great Whore is come and she shall be rewarded double as she hath rewarded The Beast the false Prophets the Kings of the earth shall make war with the Saints but again the Lamb and the Saints shall get victory who shall kill with the sword slay with the sword which is the words of his mouth the Beast shall be taken with him the false Prophet the old Dragon and be cast alive into the lake of fire Now here was the Lambs weapons and Saints killing and slaying with the sword which is the word of his mouth but their weapons is fire faggot inquisition torturing hanging drawing and quartering about your Religion about your worship that which your faith stands in which is proved to be Cains and not Abels the Keeper of Sheep for the Lamb and the Saints shall have the victory and the holy Prophets shall have power over you whom the beast hath had power over whom you have worshipped and the Whore hath set upon all tongues and kindreds and Nations and the everlasting Gospel shall be preached to them that dwell upon the earth to all tongues people and Nations that dwell upon the earth and so your Church hath been made up of false Prophets inwardly ravening Wolves and the grievous Wolves not sparing the flock and that come in after the Apostles departure that rose up among them that had the Sheeps clothing Math. 7. and 24. Acts 20. And your Church is made up of Hereticks which the Apostle speaks of that served not the Lord Jesus Christ but their own bellies which caused devisions which had the good words and fair speeches which deceived the hearts of the simple Romans 16. And your Church is made up of false Apostles Satans Ministers Satans messengers transforming themselves as the true messengers Ministers and Apostles your Church is made up of such who forbids marriages and meats which the Apostle said should come and so in the Devils doctrines as 1 Timoth. 4. and 2 Corinth 11. and so are not built upon the true foundation of the Prophets and Apostles and Christ Jesus who being past feeling who are gone after the vanities of your own minds like Gentiles into Idols Ephes. 5.4 who are the injurious Persons as Paul was in his first estate before conversion when he persecuted who never after conversion did persecute for then he came into the life and substance of what he professed in words before and so your fruits do shew your Church to be made up of injurious Persons persecuting like Saul not converted and yet you he doting about Law and Gosple which you do not know what you affirm and speak of so your Church many of them through Philosophie and rudements below are held up by the Commandments and doctrines of men and feigned and voluntary humility which is your own and usurped authority Jezabel-like so hath forsaken the command of the Lord Jesus Christ and the true Church who said keep from Idols you have made Idols and Images that can neither hear nor see nor go so your Church is to be confounded which trusteth in Idols and Images so not in the true Church of God and your Church is made up of them that kill the Lord Jesus Christ and kill the Prophets and kills the Saints and so fills up the wrath to the utmost which is to come upon you and your Church is made up of such who for the love of money hath erred from the faith and are covetous and will sell Pardons for money your Church is made up of such who be given to blaspheme and so hath lost the godliness in which the Saints increase but you have cankered the People with your images and pictures idols of things below so out of the sober state in the malice hatefull out of the fruits of the true Church but made up of

Reader to that which is written in answer to the former pap●r Again Thou saith that the Apostles and their successors had power to remit sins according to John 20.23 The Apostles who believed in the Son of God unto whom all power is committed and had received power from God could do nothing against the power which was their life and what they said and did from that power st●ndeth for the same power that Christ received of the Father the same he gave unto them and the same that they did remit was remitted But what is this to the Pope who is out of the power of God who follows his Successors the Antichrists Deceivers Apostates and vagabond Jewes and Exorsists who would have cast out Devils in the name that Paul preached but could not When did Christ or any of his Apostles say to the Pope or any of the Cardinals Fryars Monks Jesuites whose sins ever you remit are remitted Or when did he give the Pope or any of his Cardinals Fryars Jesuites Monks power to sell Pardons for money Is not this a doctrine of the Devill which Peter whose successors you say you are who declared against you and such as you who said concerning you that you taught those things for filthy lucre which you ought not to teach And further thou saiest thou conf●sses that there are other points of Popish Doctrine which you teach that there is not such evident Scripture for as for those before mentioned if thou hadst said there had bin none at all thou had spoke truth this is the Popish doctrine which thou sayest you have not clear Scriptures for for Purgatory praying to Saints and baptizing of Infants c. I say there is no Scripture at all except it be your own devised Fables For the blood of Christ cleanseth from all sinne them that do believe and there is no need of any other thing to cleanse and so your Purgatory is a feigned fiction and a lying invented thing invented by the Pope to get money by And as for praying to the Saints there is no Scripture for but against it For it is written th●u shalt worship the Lord thy God and him ONLY shalt thou serve and cal upon me in the day of trouble It doth not say call upon the Saints And farthermore Christ said Whatsoever ●e aske in my name it shall be given you And farthermore Christ said to his Disciples Whatsoever you aske my father in my name it shall be granted unto you He exhorteth them not as the Pope doth to ask in the name of St. Mary and St. Peter and St. Dominick And as for baptizing of Infants that is an invention of your own framed and formed since the dayes of the Apostles For the Apostles were commanded to teach and preach before they baptized any but you baptize those that are unt●ught and unlearned and these they call members of you● visible Church and so all this f●igned doctrine before mentioned is denyed and and condemned by the spirit o● the Lord which you are erred from 5 Prin. That the Scripture doth no where clearly teach that we must do nothing nor believe no●hing whi●h is not written in the Scripture so thou saith even by our own rule the whole foundation of all our n●w faith falls to pieces For if I am bound to believe nothing but what stands in Scripture then thou sayest thou art not bound to believe this maxime of Heretickes because it stands not in Scripture Answ. Paul was no Heretick and he said If I or an Angell from heaven preach any other Gospel let him be accurst And Moses he was no H●retick and he said to the Church of the Jewes concerning the book of the Law given unto them Thou shall not adde thereto nor take therefrom And John he was no H●retick and he said If any man shall add unto these things written in the book God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in the book And yet all these were H●reticks in thy account their faith stood in the power of God and this the Scripture bears witness of and those things were written in the Scripture that they might be believed and from the spirit of truth they were written And so if thou professe thou have the spirit of truth thou art bound not to believe any thing contrary to the Scripture and here your foundation and doctrine is dashed to pieces by the spirit of God who spoke for the Scripture And farther thou goes on in thy blindness and ignorance and sayes thou art not bound to believe that the Bible is the word of God because it stands not in Scripture is not the Scripture that which is written in the Bible And dost thou not call the Scriptures the Word of God and yet foolishly saith the Bible stands not in the Scripture Thou goes on and says it is most clear that we are bound to believe and receive some things that are not written in the Scripture they who know the bond of the spirit are not bound by i● to beli●ve any thing which is contrary to the spirit which speak forth the Scripture Further thou brings 2 Thes. 2. and 15. 21 John 25. to prove that we are bound to believe something that is not ●ritten in the Scripture because the Apostle exhorts the Thess●lonians to stand fast and to hold the traditions which they had been taught whether by word or writing Now if thou can produce thou may the words that he taught to the Thessalonians which was spoken by the same spirit which he wrote the Epistle● by and that which he spake doubtlesse is not contrary to that which he wrote and so this proves nothing that every one is to believe your vain traditions which you have invented in your carnal minds being erred from the faith and having lost the spirit And although John say that there were many other things that Christ did which are not written Yet what doth this prove that your innovated stories and devised fables ought to be believed And I say unto thee and unto all you it is meer madnesse to aver or to believe that which is contrary to that which is written And then thou says if any man ask thee what those things be which Christ and the Apostles taught and have not written thou gives an answer thy selfe that they taught to baptize Infants and that we must sanctifie the Sundays and other holy days and to fast in Lent and acknowledge Sr. Peters successors for the governours of Christ-Church and to say Masse and with all other points of Catholique doctrine all which pack of lyes and foolish fopperies and invented imaginations which is all contrary to that which Christ spake and the Apostles wrote of him For these are all invented stuffe some from the Heathens you have by traditions and the rest has been invented both the words and the things themselves since the Apostles dayes wherein there hath been a great Apostacy and
