ANTI-CHRIST Pointed and painted out in his true Colours OR The Pope of Rome proven to bee that Man of Sinne and Sonne of Perdition fore-prophesied in Scripture By the clear witnessing of Roman Catholicks themselues Who lived and died in the Communion of that Church For converting or convincing of anie Papist that is not wilfullie obdured DEUT. 32.31 Even our enemies themselves being Iudges By WILLIAM GUILD Doctor of Divinitie and Preacher of GODS WORD Printed in Aberdene by Iames Brown 1655. TO THE RIGHT HONORABLE AND RELIGIOVS ALEXANDER LORD FORBES OF PETSLEGO Right Honorable Noble Lord IN the tyme of so great defection froÌ„ the Trueth to Popery within this Kingdom and especiallie in these northern parts of late If ever there was a necessitie layd upon the Lords Servants To giue Warning from the Watch-tower as Ezekiell speaketh and to blow the Trumpet it is now And as the Apostle speaketh Earnestlie to contend for that Faith which was once delivered to the Saincts Seing as the Apostle Paull in his tyme did fore-warn the Elders of Ephesus There are greevous Wolves entred in amongst vs not sparing the flock as also of our own selves meÌ„ ar ariseÌ„n speaking perverse things to draw disciples after theÌ„ And more particularly seeing that man of sinne son of perdition of whoÌ„ he speaketh by his emissaries with all subtilitie and sedulitie is seeking to repare the breaches of that tottering Babell which is near to her fall by seeking with all deceaveablenesse of vnrighteousnesse as the Apostle speaketh in them that perish to seduce vnstable soules and such who have not receaved the love of the Trueth that they might bee saved that therâ—fore through strong delusion they should believe a lie Yet notwithstanding they shall not prevaile For howsoever that Beast spoken of in the Revelation whom all agree to bee that foretold Antichrist by his false resembling of the horns of the Lamb and pretending to bee CHRISTS Vicar hath before tymes deceaved the inhabitants of the earth and made them drunk with the wine of Whoorish FornicatioÌ„ as Hose speaketh The spirit of whoredoms causing them to erre Yet now his lying mouth speaking lyke the Dragon is so well known to all GODS People that are come out of Babell and follow the Lamb that as the Apostle speaketh concerning the Gospell if it was hid it was to them onlie that perish Even so it may bee sayd in lyke manner If in so clear a light of the Gospell this bee hid from anie blinded papist that poperie is Antichristianisme and the Pope that foretold Antichrist it is onlie to these who wilfullie continuing in their errour appearinglie GOD hath destinated to destruction and agaynst whom that sad threatning is denounced Rev. 14.10 that they shall drink of the wine of the wrath of GOD which is powred out without mixture into the Cup of His indignation c. Seeing therefore of al Contraversies between the Papists and Us this is the chieffest of such consequence That if we prove the Pope to bee Antichrist Then all Poperie is overthrown and all other Contraversies between them and us easilie decyded The Pope his infallibilie beeing the Diana of Ephesus ther Atlas and Idoll Dagon this Pillar of whose house being pulled down the whole Fabrick or Superstructure thereof falleth as it did in Sampsons tyme For then it will follow that all Papists are limmes of Antichrist and all Popish doctrines are Antichristian errors opposite to the Trueth of CHRIST and the Gospell Therefore for convincing the obstinate Papist and converting the tractable As also for establishing the wavering and confirming such as are rooted in the Trueth I have taken pains besyde clear Testimonies of Scripture adduced heretofore by manie worthie Servants of CHRIST to prove the Point in this short Treatise by taking another course to my knowledge not taken hitherto by anie That is to evidence by the witnessing of Roman catholicks themselves who lived and died in the Communion of that Church That the Pope is Antichrist and that man of sinne and sonne of perdition fore-prophesied by the Apostles 2. Thessal 2.3 And that Beast spoken of by Iohn Rev. 13.11 Whom the LORD shall consume with the Spirit of His Mouth abolish by the Brightnes of His Comming That so as is sayd Deut. 32.31 Even our enemies being judges and as it was sayd to the wicked servant Luke 19 22. Ex ore tuo c. Even so out of the mouths of Romanists themselves the Trueth hereby may bee established and themselves convinced Which pains that I have taken in this point I have dedicated to Your LORDSHIP besyde other Motives and Relation Because of Your LORDSHIPS Known Religious Disposition Love to the Trueth The want wherof is assigned by the Apostle to bee the cause of that delusion of manie now adayes and of their Apostasie from the Trueth And which I may say is one of the greatest Evidences of GODS Love to You and of the standing of Your Noble Familie while as manie others ar lyke Ionahs gourd fading and falling Because of the want of that Love to the Trueth and contempt of the Gospell That is lyke that worm which was at the root thereof In which Love of GOD His Trueth and in joyning a Gospel lyfe with a Gospell light as Your Lordship groweth in years that the LORD may lykewyse as the Prophet speaketh Bee lyke Dew to You and make You to grow in Grace as the Lillie And to spreade Your Roots in the stabilitie thereof lyke the Trees of Lebanon shall bee ever the heartie Wish and Prayer of Your Lordships humble Servant in CHRIST WILLIAM GUILD TO THE READER Christian courteous Reader MArvell not that after so manie Worthies in CHRISTS Church who have so largelie written of this Subject That I should need anie more to put Pen to Paper in this particular For that which hath moved mee is not onlie that these spoken of have written partlie in Latin not vnderstood by all obvious to few And others that have written in English have so copiouslie inlarged themselves by discourse therein and are lykewyse rare here and in the hands of few But lykewyse my speciall Motive hath bene the dayly increase of Poperie almost and the spreading it selfe everiewhere Partlie through these vnhappie differences in CHRISTS Church of late within the three Kingdoms And partlie through the sedulitie of the masked Iesuites and Seminarie Priests who numerouslie now swarm everywher upon the presumptioÌ„ of inpunitie and lyke the Pharesees of old do make Proselytes to themselves in all parts Which with griefe I am sure should zealouslie affect everie sound Professor But chieflie Pastors and such as have bene called to the holie Ministerie to give Warning from the Watch Tower And contend for the Faith once delyvered to the Saints Against such disguysed wolves comming in sheeps cloathing to devour CHRISTS Flock And in particular to discover that

golden rule which Iustine Martyr setteth down to know true and divine miracles and discerne them from others to wit by the doctrine which they confirme if it be that which is registrat in the Word of God to which they are seales As for that Revel. 13.13 Where it is said that the second beast whereby Antichrist is meaned doth great wonders so that he maketh fire come down from heaven upon the earth in the sight of men allusion thereby being made to that fact of Elias in destroying his enemyes by calling for fire from heaven to come downe upon earth in the sight of men 2. King 1.10.11 Their owne Lyra expoundeth this saying Hic accipitur ignis metaphorice sicut alia quae hic dicuntur That is fire is taken here metaphoricallie as other things also which are heere spoken And thereafter Inconspectu hominum id est secundum falsaâ— estimationem credentium sayeth he that is according to the false estimation of them who believed so Whereby may be denotate the Popes thunder-bolts of excomunication against such as opposed him and which according to the false estimation of them who believed it he hath power to throw downe to destruction both their soules and bodies as unto fire eternallie These things therefore being demonstrat concerning Antichrist First who he is for Person 2. Where hee is for Place 3. When he came for Time 4. What were his properties for Marks To wit 1. Exorbitant pryde under a pretext of humilitie 2. Grosse Idolatrie under colour of devotion and pietie 3. Bloodie crueltie palliated under the pretext of holie zeale and sanctitie 4. MerchaÌ„dize of spirituall things or simonie joyned with horrid tytles of blaesphemie 5. A Lawlesse life and in lecherie through fained holienesse and continencie And 6. Lyeing wonders by subtilitie abusing Christians simplicitie From all which former premisses in all the preceeding Chapters I repeate that argument Wherewith I beganne thus Unto whom the whole prophecyes of holie scripture describing that grand Antichrist and being joyntlie or collectivelie taken doth sole and onelie agree He is that grand Antichrist foretold in the scripture But unto the Pope the whole prophecyes of holie scripture describing that grand Antichrist being joyntlie and collectivelie taken doth sole only agree Therefore it followeth that hee is that grand Anâ—ichrist foretold in the scriptures And I defye any Priest or papist to find out any other to whom these prophecies or properties collectivelie taken as said is doth agree And speciallie by the testimonies of these that are of that persons profession as we haue brought the testimonies of Romanists to prove these of the Pope Whence it is that since the Pope came â—o that Meridian or {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} of his hight about the thousand yeare of God in the time of Gregorie the 7. as hath beene said and was fullie then seene to bee that man of sin spoken of 2. Thess. 2.4 The Lord hath stirred up from time to time in every Centurie since some witnesses to avow him to be that grand foretold Antichrist as in the yeare of God 1100. or thereby The Bishope of Florence in the time of Paschalis the second declareth clearlie that the Pope was that Antichrist The same likewise did one Dulcinus Navarensis preach as may be seene more ample in that book called Catalogus testium veritatis the Mageburg centuries Cent. 12. As likewise Ioachimus Abbas declareth the same being asked by Richard the first of England as witnesseth Roger Houeden in the life of Richard the first So likewise did Honorius Augustodunensis dialog de lib.

Avowedlie maintained that the Pope was that Antichrist The same did Eberhardus Archbishope of Salisburg in a publick imperiall dyet at Reinsburg as Aventin recordeth in his 5. and 7. bookes of the Bavarian annalsÂ· As also Robert Grosthead called the worthy Bishopeof Lincolne as Mathew Paris reporteth in the life of Henrie the third Whose bones therefore were thereafter caused to be raised by Pope Innocent and cast out of the Church Likewise in the 1300 yeare of God Marsilius Patavinus in his book called Defensor pacis c 25. affirmeth that the Pope was that foretold Antichrist So likewise did that worthie gentleman famous Poet in his time Gefrey Chaucer in his plow-mans tale at large As also Michael Caesenas principall or pryor of the gray Friers with diverse others But most speciallie their famous Petrarch in that Epistle where hee deploreth the calamitie of the Towne of Rome cited abefore Inlikemanner in the yeare 1400. Iohn Wickleff in England whom thereafter followed Iohn Huss and Ierom of Prague in BOHEME avowedlie taught and did proue the Pope to be Antichrist Witnessing the same to their death Which then many houndreths yea thousands publicklie professed maintained with their blood Last of all in the yeare 1500. or little after beside Ierome Savanarola in Italie The Lord stirred up Luther in Germany Melancton and many more to discover declare the Pope to bee that man of sin and foreprophecied Antichrist which in all reformed Churches is now held for a most sure and true assertion upon the grounds an d reasons that alreadie hath beene declared So that it is no new doctrine braoched onelie since Luther's tyme as papists affirme that the Pope is Antichrist But grounded upon scripture and avowed by many who lived and dyed in the externall Communion of the Roman Church long before Luther CHAP.
