A55520 An interpretation of the number 666 wherein, not onely the manner, how this number ought to be interpreted, is clearely proved and demonstrated : but it is also shewed [that] this number is an exquisite and perfect character, truly, exactly, and essentially describing that state of government to [which] all other notes of Antichrist doe agree : with all knowne objections solidly and fully answered [that] can be materially made against it / by Francis Potter ... Potter, Francis, 1594-1678. 1642 (1642) Wing P3028; ESTC R40657 113,466 230

beati_fw-la petri_n &_o apostolorum_fw-la haec_fw-la est_fw-la fides_fw-la patrum_fw-la haec_fw-la est_fw-la fides_fw-la orthodoxorum_fw-la i_o have_v note_v three_o thing_n in_o which_o the_o number_n 25_o be_v applicable_a unto_o it_o first_o concern_v the_o number_n of_o prelate_n there_o assemble_v in_o the_o first_o session_n the_o history_n of_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n lib._n 2._o pag._n 130._o plain_o testify_v that_o the_o number_n of_o all_o the_o prelate_n then_o and_o there_o assemble_v be_v 25._o and_o although_o the_o number_n of_o prelate_n be_v afterward_o in_o other_o session_n increase_v and_o continual_o alter_v and_o change_v yet_o this_o first_o session_n be_v that_o which_o give_v nomen_fw-la &_o esle_v to_o the_o council_n and_o therefore_o the_o number_n of_o prelate_n assemble_v in_o this_o session_n be_v most_o remarkable_a &_o rather_o to_o be_v observe_v then_o in_o any_o other_o second_o concern_v the_o number_n of_o session_n and_o that_o the_o whole_a council_n be_v divide_v into_o 25_o session_n all_o edition_n of_o that_o council_n do_v testify_v and_o the_o book_n themselves_o will_v be_v as_o a_o thousand_o witness_n until_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n and_o last_o it_o be_v witness_v by_o the_o same_o book_n also_o that_o the_o number_n of_o popish_a archbishop_n which_o subscribe_v to_o this_o council_n be_v 25_o and_o although_o many_o other_o bishop_n and_o legate_n and_o abbat_n &_o other_o subscribe_v also_o yet_o the_o number_n of_o archbishop_n be_v more_o remarkable_a than_o any_o of_o the_o rest_n because_o as_o bishop_n who_o ought_v chief_o if_o not_o only_o to_o have_v decisive_a voice_n in_o general_a counsel_n be_v virtual_o and_o representative_o their_o whole_a subordinate_a clergy_n so_o they_o themselves_o especial_o in_o the_o romish_a hierarchy_n be_v virtual_o and_o representative_o contain_v in_o their_o archbishop_n it_o may_v be_v here_o as_o i_o believe_v true_o add_v that_o the_o number_n of_o all_o the_o decree_n of_o this_o council_n of_o trent_n be_v also_o 25._o i_o mean_v of_o such_o witness_v such_o for_o the_o other_o decree_n which_o concern_v either_o the_o beginning_n continue_v prorogue_a translate_n or_o end_v of_o the_o council_n or_o of_o any_o session_n or_o which_o concern_v safe_a conduct_n be_v matter_n of_o mere_a formality_n and_o unavoidable_a necessity_n and_o be_v not_o to_o be_v number_v with_o the_o decree_n of_o the_o council_n nor_o be_v read_v when_o the_o decree_n be_v confirm_v as_o the_o last_o act_n of_o the_o council_n witness_v decree_n as_o concern_v matter_n of_o faith_n &_o reformation_n which_o only_o be_v to_o be_v account_v for_o the_o decree_n of_o the_o council_n because_o these_o only_o be_v read_v and_o confirm_v in_o this_o council_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o last_o word_n of_o the_o last_o session_n but_o because_o it_o be_v hard_o to_o set_v down_o any_o one_o certain_a number_n of_o they_o and_o because_o it_o be_v already_o prove_v by_o that_o which_o be_v above_o say_v that_o the_o number_n 25_o be_v more_o remarkable_a in_o this_o council_n than_o any_o one_o other_o number_n therefore_o i_o pass_v now_o to_o that_o creed_n and_o form_n of_o profession_n of_o the_o romish_a faith_n which_o be_v compose_v by_o pope_n pius_n the_o four_o according_a to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n by_o which_o creed_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o they_o have_v increase_v the_o number_n of_o the_o article_n of_o the_o faith_n from_o twelve_o unto_o twenty_o five_o as_o by_o the_o creed_n itself_o here_o write_v verbatim_o out_o of_o pope_n pius_n his_o bull_n may_v evident_o appear_v 1_o credo_fw-la in_o unum_fw-la deum_fw-la patrem_fw-la omnipotentem_fw-la factorem_fw-la coeli_fw-la &_o terrae_fw-la visibilium_fw-la omnium_fw-la &_o invisibilium_fw-la church_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o some_o article_n of_o the_o apostle_n creed_n be_v believe_v by_o the_o jew_n and_o be_v arti_fw-la le●_n of_o their_o say_v before_o our_o ●aviour_n christ_n come_v in_o the_o flesh_n the_o jew_n than_o do_v and_o do_v y●t_o believe_v one_o god_n the_o father_n

therefore_o the_o apostle_n do_v not_o make_v de_fw-fr novo_fw-la all_o the_o article_n of_o their_o cree●_n but_o do_v only_o add_v certain_a article_n to_o that_o faith_n which_o be_v former_o
