if they should doe the least mischiefe any kind of way either against Christ or against any of his brethren the children of God which shall then reigne for euer with him how is it then said that al powers shal serue and obey the most High how are all things then subdued to Christ and put vnder his feet how hath he loosed the works of the diuell as the Scriptures speake If the last enemy be death and that death be once swallowed vp in victorie and it be fulfilled which is written O death where is thy sting O graue where is thy victory what is the thing then left that can doe the least euill against God against Christ against Sion or against any of her children which are now redeemed from all those former captiuities nay none shall euer hurt or destroy in all that holy mountaine and for that old Serpent vpon his belly shall he go and dust shall be his meate When Satan that Serpent went first about to seduce mankind by sowing sinne the sting of death in his heart he aimed not at his owne perpetuall torments neither did he intend to come to praise glorifie God for euer and euer as he shall one day be compelled to do these were no part of his thoughts nay but his aime purpose was to bring all men in subiectiō to himself to do him homage and seruice and so to depriue God of all his honour on earth for euer that he and his wickednesse might haue the rule this was his plot hee litle thought of a seed to come to bruise his head nay after the Seed was promised he ceased not for all this but stroue still to effect his purpose and he preuailed much therein chiefly by presenting riches honor and the glorie of this world vnto men so that when the Seed himselfe in person came he spared not to tempt him with the like baites but he ouercame him and hath in part and shall ere long fully vndoe his whole plot and cast him where he shall receiue that which he aimed not at and force him to doe that which he neuer intended and Sion which had been so long desolate and waste shall be set vp the praise of the whole earth and be established in righteousnesse and safetie for euer according to the Prophets She shall be farre from oppression for she shall not feare and from terror for it shall not come neare to her violence shall be no more heard within her land nor wasting destruction within her borders she shal call her walls saluation and her gates praise her gouernment shall be peace and her exacters righteousnesse all those that formerly despised her and the sons of them that did afflict her shall come bending vnto her and worship at the soles of her feete and shall call her the Citie of the Lord Sion of the holy one of Israel her Sunne shall no more go downe neither shall her Moone withdraw it selfe for the Lord shall be her euerlasting light and the dayes of her mourning shall be ended Reuelat. 15 4.

the diuell deluding them through pride vnder pretence of some excellent way of truth which he makes them beleeue is reuealed vnto them As first for the Church of Rome all the world seeth what confusion what fearfull delusions are therein what multitudes of sects of new deuised orders of Priests of Friers each drawing a traine after him and now since the light of the truth hath broken forth what strange contentions haue beene raised in the Church of God about things of no moment when great and weightie matters haue been neglected and what emulations diuisions and separations haue bred thereupon and then how after this people being in distraction haue runne from one sect and error to another from separation to separatiō diuiding themselues into many seuerall sects to Anabaptistry wherein a-againe are diuided into fiue or six sundry sects each hatefully condemning other holding also many dangerous errors some to expect new Apostles some to the heresie of Arius and some others who being as it were distracted with these things haue fallen to another the most blasphemous and erronious sect this day in the world commonly called by the name of the Family of loue whose author was one Henrie Nicolas or H. N. for so they will haue him called that is as they expound it Homo Nouus the new man or the holy nature or holinesse which they make to be Christ and sin they will haue to be Antichrist because it is opposite to Christ They say that when Adam sinned then Christ was killed and Antichrist came to liue They teach that the same perfection of holinesse which Adam before he fell is to be attained here in this life and affirme that all their Family of loue are as perfect and innocent as he And that the resurrection of the dead spoken of by Saint Paul in the 1. Cor. 15. and this prophesie Then shall be fulfilled the saying which is written O death where is thy sting O graue where is thy victory is fulfilled in them and denie all other resurrection of the body to be after this life They will haue this blasphemer H. N. to be the sonne of God Christ which was to come in the end of the world to iudge the world and say that the day of iudgement is already come and that H. N. iudgeth the world now by his doctrine so that whosoeuer doth not obey his Gospel shall in time be rooted out of the world and that his Family of loue shall inherite and inhabite the earth for euer world without end only they say they shall die in the bodie as now men do and their soules go to heauen but their posterities shall continue for euer This deceiuer describeth eight through breakings of the light as he termeth them to haue beene in eight seueral times from Adam to the time that now is which as he saith haue each exceeded other the seuenth he alloweth Iesus Christ to be the publisher of and his light to be the greatest of all that euer were before him and he maketh his owne to be the eighth and last and greatest and the perfection of all in and by which Christ is perfected meaning holinesse He maketh euery one of his Family of loue to be Christ yea and God and himselfe God and Christ in a more excellent maner saying that he is Godded with God and codeified with him and that God is hominified with him These horrible blasphemies with diuers others doth this H. N. and his Family teach to be the euerlasting Gospel which the Angell is said to preach in Reuelation 14. 6. and himselfe to be the Angell yea and the Archangell which is said to sound the great and last trump Reuel 11. 15. They professe greater loue to the Church of Rome and to all her idolatries and superstitions then they do to any Church else whatsoeuer except themselues They wickedly abuse these words of Christ I must walke to day and to morrow and the third day I shall be perfected and say that by to day is meant the time of Iesus Christ and his Apostles and by to morrow all the time of the religion of the Church of Rome and by the third day this their day of H. N. and his Family wherein they wil haue Christ to be perfected And they doe compare all the whole religion of the Church of Rome to the law of Moses affirming that as God did teach his people by those shadowes and types till Iesus Christ came so he hath taught the world euer since by the images sacrifices and filthy heathenisme of the Church of Rome till this wretch H. N. came and now he must be the onely chiefe teacher Gods obedient man yea his sonne as they blasphemously call him he by his Gospell must make all perfect They will outwardly submit to any kind of religion and to any idolatrous seruice whatsoeuer pretending it is not the bodie that can sinne but the soule They will be Priests in the Church of Rome and act their Seruice after their maner of deuotion and as Satan can transforme himselfe into an Angell or light so they can thrust themselues likewise ●o be publike Ministers and Preachers in the Church of England yea into the Kings Chappell and to be of his officers and messengers so bold they are euen at this present and so close and cunningly they can carry themselues being directed thereto by their Master H. N. that yee shall hardly euer find them out They will professe to agree in all points with the Church of England as also with the Church of Rome if they should be examined by them onely this they will not lightly deny their Master H. N. nor speake euill of him or his writings if they should be put to it and there is no way but this whereby to discouer them I say to put them to the deniall and abiuring of him and his writings and to pronounce him a blasphemer and his doctrine blasphemous this they will hardly doe vnlesse they be not yet his full disciples These horrible blasphemies wicked actions which I hate to describe but that I desire Christians should take notice of them and beware doth this blasphemer and his blasphemous sect teach and practise But I cease sighing and sorowing in my heart God doth know to see that the deuill should worke such mischeife now in this last time wherein I know God will haue his truth to prosper and most of all because many silly soules are taken in their snares like poore vnwary birds in time of winter when foode is scarse seeking for releife Alas what may be the cause of this Is there not some great fault in those that should giue light to the world who sit in the places of the starres of God Doth not their negligence coldnes driue the people into these extreames or are the violent courses and carnall contentions of some other the cause thereof or is it both doubtles they are both great causes
