Transubstantiation The Doctrine is Damnable For the Church of Rome teacheth her Children the Papists to believe in to fall down unto and to worship a breaden-God which their Priests have made an Idol with Solemn and Sacred Adoration And the Practice is also damnable For the Papists eating that Bread with a firm Belief that it is not Bread but the Body of Christ do eat that Bread and drink that Cup unworthily and so eat and drink their own damnation 1 Cor. 11.29 Secondly It appears that the Church of Rome is the great Whore Because She is become the Mother of Harlots (k) Prid. de mille annis Apoc Lect. 13.

That the Roman-Priests are the false Prophet ALSO A CALL To all the People of God To come out of BABYLON By HANSERD KNOLLYS a Servant of Jesus Christ Isa 57.14 Take up the stumbling-block out of the way of my People Rev. 18.6 Reward her even as she Rewarded you Printed Anno Domini 1679. Isaiah Thomas NEC ELATUS NEC DEJECTUS An Epistle to the Reader Ingenuous Reader IT is an Astonishment beyond the ●●nary Comprehensions of Nature Reason and Religion that the Papists esp●●●●●● the Priests and Jesuits of the Church of Rome so odious in their bloody Tenents so prodigious in their Hellish Plots such inc●●crable Incendiaries and furious Ass●●ns for murdering of Princes should be suffered to increase and indulged to multiply in a Protestant Nation as of late years they have done in this Kingdom Assuredly it could never have been so but that the Lord in his just Indignation against us for our God-provoking Sins of Atheism Idolatry Profaneness Adultery and other heinous wickedness intends and suffers us to ripen and be prepapared for some dreadful Judgment which God may justly bring upon this Land and Nation by the hand of the Papists if we Repent not of those Abominations and do not reform them It is more than Manifest by woful Experience that the main End of the Papists in all their Plots and Conspiracies is the utter Destruction of the Protestants whom they call Hereticks and the Protestant-Religion in England especially and the Re-establishment of the Popish-Religion of the Church of Rome in this Kingdom which End the Popish-Recusants in England in this Bloody and Traiterous design that Damnable and Hellish Plot contrived and carried on by them for Assassinating and Murdering the King Subverting the Government and for Rooting out and Destroying the Protestant-Religion as the King and Parliament have voted and declared are still endeavouring 〈◊〉 effect and bring to pass The concurrent 〈◊〉 our grand and greatest Enemies 〈◊〉 the World durst not entertain a Thought of Invasion did they not Hope when Time serves to find amongst us a Side and Faction of numerous and Seditious Papists to joyn with them Were we rid of the Papists and were Idolatry Atheism Whoredom and Blasphemy put away as in Policy Reason and Religion these ought to be The Royal Person of the King would be safe from Assassination and the Government secure from Subversion And the Protestants and Protestant-Religion free from utter Destruction by the blessed Protection of Almighty God Conformity unto all Oaths Tests and outward formal Satisfactions of State concurring with a full Mystical-Babylon Vnvailed The Method that I have chosen to Unvail Mystical-Babylon is by proving these four Propositions viz. 1. That Rome-Papal is Mystical-Babylon 2. That the Pope of Rome is the Beast 3. That the Church of Rome is the great Whore 4. That the Roman-Priests are the false Prophet Proposition I. That Rome-Papal is Mystical-Babylon EAstern Babylon of Nebuchadnezzar in Chaldaea was a famous City Called the Lady of Kingdoms (a) Isa 47.1 5. and the glory of Kingdoms (b) Isa 13.19 under whose Kings the People of God were Captivated and oppressed violently (c) 2 Chron. 36.14 -20. and Jer. 51.34 35. For which violence done to Zion and other God-provoking Sins that great City and Kingdom was destroyed by Cyrus King of Persia (d) Isa 45 1-4 and 47 1-9 whom God raised up to execute his righteous Judgments upon them for their Iniquities lo●● before Saint John's time Therefore Mysterie Babylon the great so Named Revel 17.5 is some other great City which doth resemble Old-Babylon for Idolatry Jerem. 5.47 Persecution Lam. 5.1.5 Violence Jerem. 51.25 Oppression Jerem. 50.33 Isa 14.4 and Pride Isa 47.1 5 7. And thou saidst I shall be a Lady for ever I am and none else besides me And so doth Mystical-Babylon say in her Heart Revel 18 7. I sit a Queen Also Blood-guiltiness Psalm 79.1 2 3. The blood of thy Servants have they shed like Water round about Jerusalem and so doth Mystical-Babylon Revel 26.6 For they have shed the Blood of Saints and Prophets Rev. 18.24 As the City Jerusalem was Spiritually called Sodom and Aegypt (e) Rev. 11.8 where our Lord was crucified So Rome Pagan and Papal is Mystically called Babylon where the Saints have been and shall be killed (f) Rev. 6.9 10 11. Rev. 11.7.16 6. Rev. 18.13 24. And in her was found the Blood of Prophets and of Saints and of all that were slain upon the Earth That which Jesus Christ revealed by his Angel unto his Servant John touching Mystical-Babylon in this Prophecy of the Revelation can agree to no other City but Rome only For first No other City in Saint John's time was built upon Seven Mountains or Hills but Rome only Revel 17.5 8 9 18. And the seven Heads are seven Mountains on which the Woman Sitteth called the great City verse 18. whose Name is Mysterie Babylon the great verse 5. So Propertius (g) Propert. Eleg. 10. l. 3.

So do Viegas Suarez Ribera and divers others affirm That by Babylon in the Book of the Revelation Rome is Figured forth And the Remists in their Testament acknowledge That by Babylon is meant Rome See their Notes on 1 Pet. 5.13 and upon the 17. and 18. Chapters of the Revelation Secondly No other City in the World had seven Kings that is Seven several Kinds of Governours succeeding one another but Rome only Revel 17.10 And there are seven Kings five are fallen and one is and the other is not yet come The five Kings that were fallen past and gone before John's time are mentioned by Tit. Livius l. 6.
