B09926 An epistle written (dated the 30th of the 11th month 1659,) and sent from London into the countrey. By a friend to the glorious (though at this day despised) cause of Christ, in answer to a letter sent up to him (dated the 16th of the same month) wherein the following things are treated of, (viz.) 1. The fifth kingdom it self, which the God of Heaven sets up in the latter dayes. 2. The kingdom of the beast which is to be destroyed. 3. The instruments that are to be used in destroying the one and erecting the other; with the way or manner how they are to be used. 4. The time of the beginning of this work. [bracket] First, before Christs personal comming. Secondly, before the call of the Jewes. Thirdly, that it is already begun, and hath taken place in this nation and that Cromwel with the army, hath apostatized from it, and that all the powers, or governments that have been set up since that time, have been, and still are upon the foundation of the apostacy. As also, severall of the particular evills which the army, and others abetting the apostacy are guilty of. Together with, some considerations tendered to the favourers of Christ's righteous cause, wherein is laid down, their duty of separation from Babylon, and from all the parts and branches (both in church and state) of the forementioned apostacy.

that_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n do_v not_o begin_v in_o that_o time_n but_o either_o long_a before_o or_o long_o after_o second_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v true_a as_o some_o affirm_v that_o this_o

be_v the_o day_n of_o the_o four_o king_n for_o three_o of_o these_o four_o be_v come_v and_o go_v many_o year_n before_o christ_n and_o it_o be_v evident_a
election_n etc._n etc._n those_o that_o own_o election_n according_a to_o scripture_n will_v grant_v that_o it_o take_v place_n before_o call_v and_o yet_o call_v be_v here_o place_v before_o it_o

respect_n to_o the_o time_n of_o this_o kingdom_n take_v place_n be_v that_o it_o must_v begin_v or_o take_v place_n among_o the_o gentile_a saint_n before_o the_o call_v of_o the_o nation_n of_o the_o jew_n to_o wit_n the_o natural_a seed_n of_o abraham_n the_o first_o ground_n of_o this_o i_o gather_v from_o the_o work_n time_n and_o order_n of_o the_o vial_n rev._n 16._o six_o of_o they_o

16.12_o must_v be_v pour_v out_o upon_o the_o great_a river_n euphrates_n that_o the_o way_n of_o the_o king_n of_o the_o east_n may_v be_v prepare_v by_o the_o river_n euphrates_n i_o understand_v not_o the_o material_a river_n for_o the_o ship_n of_o tarshish_n must_v bring_v they_o over_o great_a river_n than_o that_o and_o that_o river_n can_v block_n up_o their_o way_n but_o it_o be_v the_o

as_o in_o revel_n 16.4_o compare_v with_o vers_fw-la 6._o and_o revel_v 17.15_o and_o also_o at_o this_o day_n the_o turk_n do_v possess_v the_o land_n of_o judea_n and_o it_o must_v be_v the_o
