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. Crisp, Stephen, 1628-1692. 1671 (1671) Wing C6922; ESTC R215182 35,940 50

in_o the_o worst_a way_n viz._n by_o sin_n which_o be_v so_o very_a contrary_n to_o his_o nature_n but_o let_v but_o these_o sin-pleader_n suppose_v that_o if_o god_n shall_v stretch_v forth_o his_o power_n so_o far_o in_o man_n that_o it_o shall_v destroy_v all_o the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o cast_v out_o sin_n and_o cause_v his_o soul_n to_o take_v as_o great_a delight_n and_o joy_n in_o welldoing_a as_o ever_o it_o have_v in_o sin_n and_o shall_v plant_v humility_n as_o natural_o in_o the_o soul_n as_o the_o devil_n have_v plant_v pride_n in_o it_o now_o the_o question_n be_v whether_o this_o power_n that_o work_v this_o change_n be_v not_o as_o able_a to_o keep_v the_o creature_n in_o this_o condition_n as_o to_o bring_v he_o to_o it_o without_o any_o help_n of_o the_o devil_n or_o his_o work_n but_o they_o will_v say_v to_o suppose_v a_o thing_n that_o be_v impossible_a be_v either_o against_o reason_n or_o presumption_n i_o answer_v all_o thing_n be_v possible_a 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 a_o perfect_a work_n and_o to_o finish_v his_o work_n in_o all_o they_o that_o trust_v in_o he_o and_o for_o this_o end_n be_v christ_n jesus_n come_v that_o he_o may_v destroy_v the_o devil_n and_o his_o work_n and_o in_o the_o parable_n he_o say_v when_o he_o come_v that_o be_v strong_a he_o shall_v bind_v the_o strong_a man_n and_o spoil_v his_o good_n and_o cast_v he_o out_o this_o seem_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 be_v keep_v by_o faith_n through_o the_o power_n of_o god_n unto_o salvation_n except_o you_o will_v say_v as_o the_o priest_n in_o scotland_n say_v curse_v be_v he_o that_o say_v faith_n it_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 the_o power_n of_o god_n unto_o salvation_n but_o if_o you_o will_v have_v it_o so_o speak_v it_o out_o as_o they_o have_v do_v but_o be_v you_o profess_v that_o faith_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n we_o may_v well_o say_v it_o be_v able_a to_o cleanse_v the_o heart_n and_o to_o give_v victory_n over_o the_o world_n and_o also_o over_o the_o devil_n and_o sin_n and_o then_o there_o be_v no_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 giveth_z his_o grace_n to_o the_o humble_a and_o dwell_v with_o such_o that_o be_v of_o a_o contrite_a and_o break_a heart_n again_o if_o a_o few_o sin_n yea_o though_o they_o be_v but_o a_o remnant_n 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 be_v because_o such_o teacher_n have_v be_v countenance_v that_o the_o people_n have_v be_v lead_v into_o so_o much_o blindness_n ignorance_n and_o hardness_n of_o heart_n and_o that_o people_n have_v whole_o lose_v the_o hope_n and_o expectation_n of_o a_o day_n of_o deliverance_n and_o have_v take_v up_o a_o rest_n in_o a_o sinful_a and_o slavish_a state_n and_o now_o if_o any_o come_v to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n which_o bring_v deliverance_n and_o freedom_n to_o the_o soul_n their_o soul_n be_v in_o a_o rest_n already_o though_o a_o false_a pollute_v rest_n such_o be_v look_v upon_o as_o disturber_n of_o their_o rest_n and_o breaker_n of_o their_o peace_n and_o such_o like_a even_o as_o it_o be_v with_o the_o prophet_n micah_n when_o he_o cry_v out_o mic._n 2.10_o arise_v you_o and_o depart_v for_o this_o be_v not_o your_o rest_n because_o it_o be_v pollute_v it_o shall_v destroy_v you_o even_o with_o a_o sore_a destruction_n but_o bless_v be_v the_o lord_n god_n of_o

come_v to_o know_v it_o to_o who_o a_o sinful_a state_n be_v no_o restingplace_n but_o be_v unto_o they_o as_o a_o strange_a land_n in_o which_o they_o can_v sing_v the_o song_n of_o zion_n but_o still_o have_v jerusalem_n in_o their_o remembrance_n which_o be_v freeborn_a from_o above_o long_v after_o the_o day_n of_o gathering_n that_o the_o lamb_n and_o not_o the_o changeable_a priest_n

your_o redemption_n draw_v nigh_o and_o deliverance_n shall_v come_v out_o of_o zion_n the_o city_n of_o our_o solemnity_n isa_n 33.20_o and_o a_o mighty_a voice_n shall_v be_v sound_v forth_o from_o

that_o day_n shall_v be_v great_a than_o the_o joy_n of_o the_o harvest_n now_o how_o and_o in_o what_o manner_n these_o thing_n will_v be_v bring_v to_o pass_v be_v a_o great_a dispute_n among_o

and_o therefore_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n those_o that_o be_v become_v willing_a to_o sit_v down_o in_o quietness_n in_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n jesus_n that_o show_v every_o running-out_a of_o
