A66360 Ho Antichristos the great antichrist revealed, before this time never discovered, and proved to be neither pope, nor Turk, nor any single person, nor the succession of any one monarch or tyrant in any policies, but a collected pack, or multitude of hypocritical, heretical, blasphemous, and most scandalous wicked men that have fulfilled all the prophesies of the Scriptures ... and especially have united ... together by a solemn league and covenant to slay the two witnesses of God, Moses and Aaron ... that is, the supreme magistrate of the Commonwealth, and the chief pastors and governours of the Church of Christ, and the Christian world is requested to judge whether the Assembly of Presbyterians consulting at Westminster, together with the independents, Anabaptists, and lay-preachers be not the false prophet ... and whether the prevalent faction of the long Parliament ... that killed the two witnesses of Jesus Christ, 1. Charles the First ... 2. William Laud ... be not the grosse and visible body of the same antichrist / by Gr. Williams. Williams, Gryffith, 1589?-1672. 1660 (1660) Wing W2662; ESTC R25201 504,825 313

of_o his_o church_n than_o receive_v they_o into_o his_o congregation_n 2._o he_o shall_v not_o seek_v the_o young_a one_o that_o be_v to_o take_v the_o little_a child_n the_o infant_n do_v 2._o so_o

own_o fiesh_n to_o be_v member_n of_o his_o church_n and_o admit_v to_o his_o flock_n but_o though_o christ_n that_o be_v the_o good_a shepherd_n call_v all_o those_o that_o be_v break_v and_o weary_a

2._o as_o the_o idol_n require_v all_o the_o honour_n and_o all_o the_o service_n that_o may_v be_v even_o the_o worship_n that_o belong_v to_o god_n whereupon_o the_o idol_n service_n be_v term_v
