A89056	A further discovery of the mystery of the last times; as an addition to a little book, called Some discoveries of the mystery of the last times, bordering upon the coming of the Lord Jesus. Set forth for the good of all men; but especially of those who in these dissenting times (wherein Ephraim envieth Juda, and Juda vexeth Ephraim) know not where to settle themselves, or to what society of Christians to joyn themselves: wherein is (as simply and plainly, as the author was able to open those mysterious scriptures quoted in this following treatise) shewed the cause of all our divisions and contentions about matters pertaining to form and order in the church of Jesus Christ; and wherein is moderately proved from those scriptures these particulars. 1. The flourishing and building condition of the church of Jesus Christ in the time of the gospel. ... 7. Lastly, that the Lord Jesus will by himself destroy all those enemies, and deliver his people, when the restoration of all things shall be.

reason_n that_o all_o man_n shall_v be_v deceive_v and_o you_o only_o know_v the_o truth_n to_o those_o man_n i_o answer_v and_o do_v acknowledge_v the_o doctrine_n be_v strange_a and_o i_o do_v confess_v i_o do_v not_o remember_v that_o i_o ever_o read_v of_o any_o such_o thing_n treat_v of_o and_o for_o the_o most_o part_n of_o the_o place_n i_o have_v open_v in_o some_o measure_n i_o do_v not_o remember_v that_o i_o ever_o hear_v any_o exposition_n upon_o they_o yea_o i_o acknowledge_v that_o the_o matter_n seem_v sometime_o strange_a to_o myself_o have_v nothing_o in_o i_o that_o deserve_v that_o the_o lord_n shall_v reveal_v any_o thing_n to_o i_o rather_o than_o to_o another_o i_o see_v in_o myself_o so_o much_o weakness_n and_o deadness_n to_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v good_a that_o it_o seem_v to_o the_o contrary_a but_o when_o on_o the_o contrary_n i_o consider_v the_o harmony_n and_o agreement_n which_o be_v among_o the_o prophet_n tend_v to_o the_o same_o thing_n and_o when_o i_o consider_v the_o experience_n of_o the_o age_n past_a confirm_v it_o and_o make_v it_o to_o appear_v a_o truth_n in_o part_n without_o contradiction_n and_o when_o i_o consider_v that_o the_o lord_n have_v in_o several_a age_n teach_v some_o of_o his_o people_n yea_o his_o prophet_n by_o man_n of_o inferior_a part_n to_o they_o as_o may_v be_v see_v in_o jethro_n counsel_v to_o moses_n and_o by_o amos_n which_o be_v a_o herd-man_n of_o tekoa_n which_o teach_v amasiah_n the_o priest_n of_o bethel_n and_o when_o i_o consider_v the_o lord_n confound_v the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o world_n by_o thing_n of_o no_o esteem_n and_o bring_v to_o nought_o thing_n that_o be_v by_o thing_n that_o be_v not_o i_o then_o take_v encouragement_n and_o be_o constrain_v to_o believe_v that_o this_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o those_o place_n and_o shall_v believe_v until_o i_o do_v perceive_v a_o better_a sense_n give_v which_o be_v do_v i_o hope_v i_o shall_v not_o be_v so_o self-conceited_a as_o to_o prefer_v my_o sense_n before_o a_o better_a if_o it_o begve_v it_o be_v further_a object_v that_o we_o be_v command_v to_o come_v out_o of_o babylon_n leave_v we_o be_v partaker_n of_o her_o sin_n and_o so_o receive_v of_o her_o plague_n which_o be_v a_o duty_n require_v of_o we_o and_o beside_o we_o have_v now_o a_o opportunity_n give_v we_o to_o come_v out_o for_o the_o state_n give_v we_o liberty_n to_o walk_v according_a to_o gospel_n order_n and_o according_a to_o our_o conscience_n there_o in_o and_o to_o gather_v ourselves_o into_o body_n to_o the_o first_o i_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v true_a that_o we_o be_v command_v to_o come_v out_o of_o babylon_n but_o it_o be_v necessary_a to_o know_v the_o time_n when_o we_o be_v to_o perform_v that_o duty_n lest_o haply_o we_o shall_v lose_v our_o labour_n and_o i_o can_v wish_v that_o some_o man_n that_o be_v so_o zealous_a for_o the_o performance_n of_o that_o duty_n will_v labour_v to_o demonstrate_v by_o the_o scripture_n prophecy_n that_o the_o time_n for_o the_o performance_n of_o this_o duty_n be_v full_o come_v lest_o the_o practice_n of_o this_o duty_n have_v no_o better_a success_n than_o those_o man_n in_o jeremy_n 29._o 21._o namely_o ahab_n the_o son_n of_o kolajah_n and_o zedekiah_n the_o son_n of_o maaseiah_n which_o be_v two_o false_a prophet_n which_o do_v persuade_v the_o people_n that_o they_o shall_v speedy_o return_v from_o their_o captivity_n contrary_a to_o the_o pprophecy_n of_o jeremy_n which_o have_v prophesy_v their_o captivity_n to_o continue_v seventy_o year_n which_o be_v a_o duty_n necessary_a to_o be_v do_v for_o so_o much_o as_o the_o prophet_n daniel_n do_v understand_v by_o book_n the_o number_n of_o year_n where_o of_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n come_v to_o jeremy_n the_o prophet_n that_o he_o will_v accomplish_v seventy_o year_n in_o the_o desolation_n of_o jerusalem_n dan._n 9_o 2._o and_o according_o do_v make_v his_o prayer_n for_o their_o return_n so_o likewise_o in_o the_o revelation_n there_o be_v set_v time_n for_o the_o people_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n to_o lie_v in_o this_o and_o that_o condition_n as_o may_v be_v see_v in_o the_o 11._o 12._o 13._o chapter_n which_o i_o shall_v endeavour_v the_o lord_n enable_v i_o in_o the_o sequel_n of_o this_o treatise_n to_o make_v appear_v not_o to_o be_v full_o accomplish_v beside_o take_v notice_n of_o those_o place_n which_o speak_v of_o the_o people_n of_o the_o lord_n come_v out_o of_o babylon_n and_o you_o shall_v find_v that_o babylon_n be_v first_o fall_v before_o the_o lord_n people_n be_v exhort_v to_o come_v out_o of_o she_o as_o may_v be_v see_v rev._n 14._o 8._o and_o 18._o 4._o but_o we_o do_v not_o yet_o see_v babylon_n fall_v nay_o rather_o we_o see_v she_o as_o high_a as_o ever_o almost_o only_o we_o have_v see_v one_o of_o his_o head_n wound_v to_o death_n but_o his_o deadly_a wound_n be_v almost_o heal_v neither_o do_v we_o see_v any_o glory_n like_v unto_o that_o glory_n which_o be_v speak_v of_o in_o those_o two_o place_n to_o precede_v the_o fall_n of_o babylon_n neither_o do_v we_o see_v the_o lamb_n upon_o mount_n zion_n with_o his_o hundred_o forty_o and_o four_o thousand_o neither_o a_o angel_n come_v down_o from_o heaven_n have_v great_a power_n and_o the_o earth_n be_v lighten_v with_o his_o glory_n which_o be_v thing_n which_o go_v before_o the_o people_n deliverance_n beside_o pray_v mark_n that_o babylon_n in_o the_o letter_n be_v destroy_v before_o the_o people_n of_o god_n be_v deliver_v and_o his_o people_n have_v a_o leader_n to_o go_v before_o they_o out_o of_o babylon_n even_o so_o likewise_o i_o conceive_v that_o the_o people_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n be_v to_o have_v a_o leader_n or_o diliverer_n to_o go_v before_o they_o to_o call_v they_o out_o of_o babylon_n in_o the_o mystery_n and_o to_o send_v his_o angel_n to_o gather_v together_o his_o elect_n from_o the_o four_o wind_n of_o the_o heaven_n according_a to_o those_o scripture_n isai._n 11._o 11_o 12._o and_o 52._o 12._o and_o 66._o 19_o 20._o joel_n the_o 3._o 11._o obadiah_n 21._o

deliverance_n of_o his_o people_n by_o himself_o and_o of_o send_v forth_o his_o angel_n to_o declare_v the_o fall_n of_o babylon_n and_o to_o exhort_v the_o people_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o come_v out_o of_o she_o to_o the_o second_o branch_n of_o this_o objection_n i_o answer_v it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o state_n give_v liberty_n to_o tender_a conscience_n for_o which_o they_o deserve_v much_o honour_n but_o these_o man_n must_v also_o remember_v that_o as_o the_o state_n give_v they_o liberty_n so_o must_v they_o have_v liberty_n of_o god_n also_o which_o i_o desire_v to_o see_v prove_v for_o first_o if_o they_o will_v come_v out_o according_a to_o order_n they_o must_v have_v their_o leader_n with_o they_o which_o be_v the_o lord_n jesus_n for_o it_o be_v say_v express_o isaiah_n the_o 52._o 12._o for_o you_o shall_v not_o go_v out_o in_o haste_n nor_o go_v out_o by_o flight_n for_o the_o lord_n will_v go_v before_o you_o and_o the_o god_n of_o israel_n will_v be_v your_o rearward_n but_o in_o this_o reformation_n which_o be_v profess_v in_o this_o nation_n in_o any_o profession_n i_o see_v no_o glory_n that_o come_v near_o the_o first_o gospel_n time_n whereas_o the_o come_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n with_o power_n do_v exceed_v the_o first_o glory_n as_o may_v be_v see_v mat._n 17._o 2._o second_o it_o must_v be_v grant_v that_o the_o nation_n of_o christiandome_n be_v all_o of_o they_o at_o the_o least_o christian_n at_o large_a as_o i_o may_v term_v they_o that_o be_v profess_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n now_o if_o we_o follow_v order_n we_o must_v reform_v by_o the_o major_a or_o great_a part_n as_o be_v the_o order_n in_o all_o assembly_n as_o also_o in_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n whilst_o they_o have_v power_n as_o may_v be_v see_v in_o the_o church_n of_o asia_n but_o we_o can_v reform_v that_o way_n because_o the_o major_a part_n will_v keep_v their_o custom_n still_o be_v they_o never_o so_o ill_a and_o therefore_o we_o can_v this_o way_n reform_v according_a to_o order_n because_o the_o best_a part_n be_v over-voted_n but_o three_o see_v that_o all_o our_o reformer_n do_v acknowledge_v that_o the_o ordinance_n be_v corrupt_v touch_v church_n discipline_n and_o if_o we_o will_v reform_v we_o must_v bring_v they_o to_o the_o first_o standard_n and_o because_o all_o our_o minister_n have_v derive_v their_o office_n of_o ministry_n through_o

and_o upon_o her_o head_n a_o crown_n of_o twelve_o star_n now_o i_o think_v no_o man_n will_v deny_v but_o the_o church_n which_o undoubted_o be_v the_o woman_n which_o be_v clothe_v with_o the_o sun_n when_o she_o have_v such_o abundance_n of_o the_o spirit_n that_o it_o sit_v upon_o they_o as_o fire_n and_o they_o be_v fill_v with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o speak_v with_o tongue_n and_o be_v enable_v with_o power_n to_o distribute_v the_o ordinance_n of_o the_o gospel_n unto_o who_o they_o do_v appertain_v and_o when_o the_o church_n be_v crown_v with_o twelve_o star_n namely_o the_o twelve_o apostle_n but_o it_o be_v yet_o object_v be_v it_o so_o that_o this_o be_v true_a yet_o be_v there_o no_o working_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v all_o thing_n so_o dead_a as_o there_o be_v no_o appearance_n of_o god_n by_o gift_n and_o ordinance_n i_o answer_v i_o do_v believe_v that_o there_o be_v some_o breathe_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o the_o saint_n for_o it_o be_v not_o say_v the_o sun_n be_v whole_o darken_v but_o darken_v that_o be_v do_v not_o give_v that_o light_n as_o it_o do_v in_o the_o first_o gospel_n time_n and_o this_o the_o very_a experience_n of_o time_n do_v evince_n but_o for_o the_o ordinance_n which_o be_v liken_v to_o the_o moon_n they_o be_v in_o a_o manner_n whole_o darken_v from_o that_o they_o be_v in_o the_o first_o time_n and_o as_o for_o the_o star_n the_o three_o part_n of_o they_o be_v darken_v in_o the_o sound_n of_o the_o four_o trumpet_n rev._n 8._o 12._o and_o 12._o 4._o and_o they_o which_o persist_v in_o the_o faith_n be_v kill_v by_o the_o beast_n rev._n 11._o 7._o it_o be_v further_a object_v that_o though_o it_o be_v say_v the_o power_n of_o the_o heaven_n shall_v be_v shake_v yet_o it_o follow_v not_o that_o they_o be_v remove_v no_o more_o than_o tree_n that_o be_v shake_v of_o a_o mighty_a wind_n be_v remove_v to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o shake_v in_o scripture_n sense_n be_v remove_v and_o this_o be_v clear_a from_o that_o of_o haggai_n 2._o 6._o where_o it_o be_v say_v for_o thus_o say_v the_o lord_n of_o host_n yet_o once_o it_o be_v but_o a_o little_a while_n and_o i_o will_v shake_v the_o heaven_n and_o the_o earth_n and_o the_o sea_n and_o the_o dry_a land_n which_o shake_v be_v expound_v by_o the_o author_n to_o the_o hebrew_n to_o be_v a_o remove_n hebrew_n the_o 12._o 27._o and_o thus_o i_o hope_v i_o have_v full_o answer_v these_o objection_n another_o objection_n be_v make_v against_o that_o exposition_n which_o i_o make_v upon_o that_o text_n luke_n 17._o 34._o where_o it_o be_v say_v in_o that_o night_n there_o shall_v be_v two_o man_n in_o one_o bed_n the_o one_o shall_v be_v take_v the_o other_o shall_v be_v leave_v which_o say_v they_o be_v mean_v when_o the_o lord_n appear_v then_o shall_v one_o that_o be_v a_o christian_n be_v at_o work_n with_o a_o unbeliever_n and_o where_o it_o be_v say_v there_o shall_v be_v two_o in_o one_o bed_n the_o one_o shall_v be_v take_v

which_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o text_n say_v it_o be_v two_o man_n and_o two_o woman_n and_o therefore_o it_o can_v be_v mean_v of_o that_o matrimonial_a couple_v of_o man_n and_o wife_n and_o touch_v the_o two_o man_n be_v in_o the_o field_n together_o as_o it_o be_v matth._n 24._o that_o it_o may_v be_v expound_v at_o work_n together_o the_o one_o a_o believer_n the_o other_o a_o

gen._n 18._o 24._o and_o say_v peradventure_o there_o be_v find_v fifty_o righteous_a so_o likewise_o in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o come_n of_o the_o son_n of_o man_n those_o that_o be_v true_o

heaven_n which_o i_o shall_v prove_v thus_o as_o it_o be_v say_v rev._n 11._o 11._o and_o after_o three_o day_n and_o a_o half_a the_o spirit_n of_o life_n from_o god_n enter_v into_o they_o and_o they_o stand_v upon_o their_o foot_n and_o great_a fear_n fall_v upon_o all_o that_o see_v they_o which_o compare_v with_o ezekiel_n 37._o and_o rev._n 20._o 5._o will_v appear_v to_o be_v that_o resurrection_n speak_v of_o in_o those_o two_o place_n but_o it_o may_v be_v say_v those_o place_n speak_v of_o the_o raise_n of_o the_o dead_a out_o of_o their_o grave_n to_o meet_v the_o lord_n in_o zion_n but_o this_o of_o revel_n 11._o must_v be_v mean_v of_o the_o raise_v the_o people_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n out_o of_o that_o darkness_n wherein_o they_o lie_v in_o the_o antichristian_a state_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v it_o be_v true_a it_o seem_v to_o be_v so_o but_o mark_v well_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o place_n and_o you_o shall_v find_v it_o be_v at_o the_o lord_n appear_v as_o to_o i_o it_o seem_v clear_a from_o the_o 12_o verse_n where_o it_o be_v say_v and_o they_o hear_v a_o great_a voice_n from_o heaven_n say_v come_v up_o hither_o and_o they_o ascend_v up_o to_o heaven_n in_o a_o cloud_n and_o their_o enemy_n behold_v they_o which_o compare_v with_o 1_o thes._n 4._o it_o will_v appear_v to_o be_v when_o the_o lord_n jesus_n appear_v from_o heaven_n with_o a_o shout_n and_o the_o voice_n of_o the_o archangel_n as_o it_o be_v in_o ver_fw-la 16._o beside_o mark_v the_o effect_n that_o do_v follow_v upon_o the_o rise_n of_o the_o witness_n for_o it_o be_v say_v verse_n 13._o and_o the_o same_o hour_n there_o be_v a_o great_a earthquake_n and_o the_o ten_o part_n of_o the_o city_n fall_v and_o in_o the_o earthquake_n be_v slay_v of_o man_n 7000_o and_o
