A34984	An alarum sounded in the borders of spiritual Egypt vvhich shall be heard in Babylon, and astonish the inhabitants of the defiled and polluted habitations of the earth. And the power of the Prince of Darkness called into question; and he himself examin'd by the truth, how he came to raign over mankind; and how long his time shall be, till he comes to be cast out of his dominion, and the creature be deliver'd from under his tyranny; to serve God in spirit and in truth, as Christ, the prince of peace, has order'd them. Also the number of him whom the world hath wonder'd after, found out; and demonstrated to be near at an end: and withal, that it is no wayes unlawful, nor in vain, both to hope, and to expect the utter desolation, and destruction of sin in this life, and the setting up of perfect righteousness in the souls of men, where sin has too long raign'd. Written in a testimony to the truth, and against the false position of the devil, and his servants; by a servant of God, Steven Crisp.

with_o god_n except_o to_o lie_v and_o as_o concern_v this_o it_o be_v not_o only_o possible_a but_o the_o contrary_n be_v impossible_a because_o god_n have_v so_o often_o promise_v it_o to_o make_v

as_o if_o christ_n who_o be_v the_o strong_a have_v no_o need_n of_o the_o devil_n or_o his_o good_n either_o to_o keep_v his_o people_n humble_a thereby_o but_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o they_o

without_o sin_n and_o let_v all_o the_o people_n say_v amen_n then_o the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n must_v be_v read_v thus_o you_o be_v keep_v by_o a_o faith_n which_o be_v mix_v with_o sin_n in_o

need_n of_o sin_n to_o keep_v we_o humble_a for_o if_o humility_n be_v a_o fruit_n of_o sin_n it_o will_v not_o be_v so_o acceptable_a unto_o god_n as_o it_o be_v for_o the_o prophet_n say_v he_o

can_v keep_v man_n humble_a then_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o sin_n must_v needs_o make_v a_o man_n more_o humble_a so_o then_o let_v we_o plentiful_o sin_n that_o we_o may_v plentiful_o be_v humble_a but_o god_n forbid_v that_o such_o doctrine_n or_o such_o teacher_n shall_v go_v unreproved_a for_o they_o have_v exalt_v the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n beyond_o the_o work_n of_o god_n and_o it_o
