One and twenty yeares Answerable to the time that Christ our Lord disputed in the Temple with the Puritanicall hypochriticall Pharisees till he ascended into Heaven as afore-mentioned But more for particuler Distinction of Time As neare as may be it may be observed that for the first Ten yeares and six Moneths which is three times 42. Moneths the Antichristian false Prophet shall most popularly carry on his wicked designes deceiving the People by Lies pretending to be for the King and Priests till they may utterly destroy Both And consequently Gods holy Worship and so out them as Antichristian by Lies and Scandals But for the later ten yeares and six Moneths the Antichrist himselfe by the assistance of his bloody Crew shall advance his Dominion For the first 42. Moneths of the later Ten yeares and an halfe the Antichrist shall be made Generall and give a Toleration to all his Antichristian Impes And for the second 42. Moneths Antichrist shall take upon him to be the peoples Saviour and Protector And his false Prophet shall comply with him and be protected by Him And for the last 42. Moneths he shall actually be confirmed in his Jesus-ship And his false Prophet with all their deluded Spirits shall give Honour unto him as lawfully installed in his Jesus-ship for ever both for Him and His. Yet before the 42. Moneths be expired a great darknesse of Confusion shall be in his Kingdome that they shall knaw their Tongues for paine Revelations the 16. th and 10. verse And also before the last 42. Moneths be out The right Heire shall come to possesse his Kingdome as is afore-mentioned This they shall see All those that lives in the Dayes of Antichrist the 42. Moneths of Antichrist's Dominion And his false Prophet spoken of by the Ange●l to John And the Time Times and the dividing of Time spoken of by the Angell to Daniell Really fulfilled to the Sight and perfect Knowledge of all the Observers thereof If they will but count And if Pharoah's Dreame was doubled twise much more shall Antichrist's 42. Moneths be doubled thrice for the Ratification thereof before all the World But courteous Reader looke what thou hast here read is none of Mine only collected by me out of holy Scripture therefore give God the Glory But it is so briefe that it is far short of what may be observed by the judicious Reader out of holy Writ Though it be promiscuously laid downe therein as we may observe in all Prophesies that Men as naturall may see and not perceive and heare and not understand for if it were by way of History then it were no Prophesie as we may observe in the 24. th of Mathew and such like Propheticall places they be Mysteriously laid downe But I would have you to observe that every Spirit that pretends to stand for Christ and doth oppose his Dominion here upon Earth by his Deputies Kings and Episcopall Priests doth therewith deny the true Doctrine and Discipline of Christ's Church The same must undoubtedly be the Antichrist Antichristian Spirits there was from the beginning by the Enemy of Mankind in opposition to the promised Seed Christ But they never prevailed to set up a Dominion as aforesaid to fill up the whole Latitude of his Description Read for your Sat●sfaction the 26. of Numbers what became of Core and his accomplice● And read the Epistle of Jude his Prophesie of Antichrist whereof Cores Rebellion against Moses their King and Aaron their Priest was a Type of Antichrist's Rebellion under the Gospell Read also the 10. th of Leviticus The History of Nadab and Abihu offering st●ange Fire to the Lord A Type of the abominable Worship and Sectaries tollerated by Antichrist in the time of the Gospell But though these did not prevaile to set up a Dominion yet Antichrist the Typified shall prosper prevaile and set up his Dominion as aforesaid And all his evill Spirits shall prosper with him all that ever were or shall be and shall doe what is written of Him But the antichristian Spirits that shall assay to set up a Dominion before the Time of the Antichrist the Son of Perdition cannot For Paul saith to the Thessalonians 2. Epistle and 2 Chapter only he who letteth shall let till he be taken out of the Way and in the 8. verse Then shall the Wicked be revealed And it is to be understood that He who hath let and doth let is the Angell of the Church And the King Christ's Deputy where this Man of Sinne shall arise who is appointed by GOD to protect his Church from such Malignant Spirits according to his Promise made to his People as to the Patriarchs and to Moses to aid them That for their and the Churches safety his Angell should goe before them The like assistance doth attend Christian Kings under the Gospell but when Gods Angell is restrained from ayding the King in protecting of Christ's Church then shall Antichrist appear and prevaile * The King and Bishop and the two great Witnesses of GOD shall be murthered in the Street and lye A Bishop may be Antichristian being against Monarchy slaine in that City which is spiritually called Sodom and Aegypt Revel the 11. chap. and 8 and 9. A Monarch may be Antichristian being against Episcopacy But he that is the Antichrist must be above and against both verses For be assured Christian Reader he shall be against Christ when he commeth and against Christ's annointed Ones Such as are commissionated consecrated and set apart for his most especiall Service under the Gospell And will presume to be above Christ as he is a Saviour administring his Power here upon Earth till his second Comming by his lawfull JESVSES his Deputies here And so he will set himselfe in Christ's Dominion or above Him Absolutely to take away the Regall and Sacerdotall Officers of CHRIST And to suppresse the true Professors Till the Antient of Dayes sit and Judgment be given to the Saints of the Most High as aforesaid All which for the Glory of our God and of his Son our Lord and Saviour in the right understanding hereof for our availes I referre unto God And for the Performance of his most Sacred Word wee ought not to doubt Therefore as I said before let us all both great and small bow the Knee at the Name of JESVS Even so AMEN Now I doubt not but I shall have the favorable Construction of all the Sons of the Church of England herein But for such as hath not knowne it through want of yeares and those that through weaknesse have been seduced from it My Desire is that they should returne and professe the Catholick Faith established in England and professed in the Dayes of Charles the first the Great Martyr of JESVS This shall be the Prayers of him that wisheth Grace and Peace till the finishing of his Dayes Your Servant ABRAHAM NELSON of Garsdale in Yorkshire FINIS
