mouth it must depart from being a true church but the church of Pergamus was such Rev. 2.16 Ergo. Fourthly The church of Thiatira of new Rome is departed from being a true church because she suffered the woman Iezabel amongst them which was a Witch a whore and a murderesse and though God hath given her space yea the longest space to repent of any other yet she repented not of her witchcraft in bewitching men to Idolatry not of her whoredome and abomination nor of her murdering the Saints for the scarled coloured Whore is drunke with the bloud of the Martyrs And therefore Christ hath made her the Synagogue of Sathan Rev. 3.9 because they 〈◊〉 themselves Iewes or a catholique church and are not because they have had time to repent and did not they shall be destroyed They are divided against themselves France against Spaine and Spaine against it selfe it must downe Now if any will account the Martyrs and true believers that lived for 200. yeares before Luther that suffered the manners of the Iezabel of Rome amongst them that should have been put away out of the church as Luther and Calvin and England did I account it the truth but that which is spoken to Iezabel is spoken to Rome as their sinnes declare The church of Sardis of the Lutherans is departing because they are in the dead faith which brought forth dead workes that were not perfect before God Rev. 3.1.2 and dead in love to the Calvinists and in love one to another their faith of consubstantiation is a dead faith that believe not their workes are perfect before God by justification neither can they believe so that live in hatred and persecution of their brethren the Calvinists that church is divided against it selfe thus the Sweeds and Danes both Lutherans were at Warre one with another lately which have shot downe the one side of their church from within and a Papist the Emperour and a Calvinist is undermining the other side for both Papists and Calvinists fight against the Lutherans and they fight one with another truly if one stone of a church should fight against another could it stand no it must fall Sixtly The Phyladelphian church of the Calvinists is passing away because they have not held fast that they had for they had the true faith and one baptisme into Christs death for remissions of sinne taught by Calvin and that doctrine established amongst them but many of them have not held fast that they had but have let the Anabaptists take their crowne for the crowne of a christian is his baptisme for therein are all the Elect crowned Rev. 1.6.5 10. with the crowne of pure gold of the merits of Christs death for remission of sinne and made Kings and Priests to God their father Rev. 1.9 for as no man is a King before he be crowned so no man is a King and Priest to God till he be baptized many of them have lost this crowne by turning Anabaptists and Sectaries a Papist a Lutheran and an Anabaptist are pulling downe the one side of their church and a Sectary and a Drunkard are cutting and beating downe the other side therefore it cannot stand for Anababtisme and drunkennesse will destroy any church wheresoever they grow witnesse the churches of Greece and Munster and many places in Iermany for Heresie is like Ivie that kills an Oake by growing over it and then men cut downe Oake and Ivie too and so where Heresie is suffered to grow in a church it kills the church by overgrowing it then God will destroy the church and heresie too as shall be seene by the church of Calvinists in suffering Anabaptists it will be the destruction of the church of Holland The church of Laodicea of England is passing away for Christ spues the Luke-warme Angels people that are lukewarme in the faith of their baptisme for remission of sinnes and in the white raiment for England hath been divided against it selfe and also Scotland and Ireland fights against them both and divided against it selfe also The Papists and Cavalleers have shot great holes in the one side of our church to get an Episcopacy but cannot because Christ spues it out of his mouth an Anabaptist stands as it were with a rope to pull downe the steeple for he called it first a Steeple-house and the Hereticks Sectaries and Selectaries have pulled up all the foundations as instance Baptisme the Creed the Lords prayer the Decalog●● the Eucharist and Christmas day and the Eucharist which hath bin as a foundation of all the seven churches ever since the Apostles time and so divided as I know not whether the King and Parliament will be reconciled ever but the Presbyters and Independents will never for their quarrell is begun and will never end for they scould can such a church stand no it must depart and passe away for the people have so many frothings of religion in their braines so many opinions and Heresies that they will fall from being a church to be a Babel for as the Babilonians having a strange phantasie would begin to build a tower to reach to heaven yet had no good materialls but made brick instead of stone and had slime instead of morter this was mans invention and it came to confusion for God confounded their language scattered them so many Hereticks Sectaries have got a conceipt in their crowne to goe make a new church as a Tower to reach to heaven for they would all goe to heaven if they could goe their owne way and they have concocted brick of the Brownists braine instead of doctrine and they have discipline of phantasie instead of morter I am not against doctrine or discipline if they be from heaven but our new church-mungers have no good materialls of gold white raiment and eye-salve from heaven to build with but the new Ierusalem must be builded of pure gold like cleare glasse Rev. 21.18 Of the gold of the merits of Christs death in regeneration for remission of sinnes and of white raiment to make the Bride trimme and eye-salve of the Scriptures that every thing may be done according to the patterne shewed in the mount of Gods word But doe you thinke blinde men are fit to build a church you will say no no more are all the Pharises of our time of all Sectaries and Hereticks whose froathing faith or fancie makes them boyle out of the church which are blind leaders of the blinde for they leade many from Christs ordinance for remission of sinnes and blind in the assurance of salvation for they know not where they had remission of sinnes but runne after every winde of Doctrine and know not whether they shall be saved or be damned or goe to heaven or to hell are you fit men to build a church that are all so blinde that you cannot see spirituall things so here sayes one wee will build this way so there says a second we will build that way so here sayes a
as the See of Rome Lutheran Calvinian or Episcopall See for they are uncleane Mi. But there shall no uncleane thing enter into the new Jerusalem Rev. 21. Con. Ergo no See of Rome Lutheran Calvinist or Episcopacie shall come into it for they are uncleane We finde when the second Angel poured out this Viall upon the sea and it became as the bloud of a dead man and every living thing dyed in the Sea Rev. 16.3 That is when Calvin had powred out his viall upon the sea of Romes corrupt jurisdiction and Doctrine for a Calvinian governement For Luther a former Angel had poured out his viall of Doctrine upon the earth i. e. upon earthly Papists and there fell a noisome grievous fore upon the men that had the marke of the beast upon them and worshipped his image i. e. upon Papists which worship the Pope and call him their Lord and made them sore i. e. in conscience by hatred malice envy railing and persecution of the truth of Luthers Doctrine But when Calvin I say had powred out a viall of Doctrine upon the See of Romes corrupt Jurisdiction and Doctrine then the See of Rome became as the bloud of a dead man for then they began to fill their See of Rome with bloudy massacres as of France Germany Netherlands and the bloud of the Martyrs of England that as when Moses stretched out his rod over the waters of Aegypt and all was turned into bloud and all the fish in the waters dyed Exod. 7.20 21. So when Calvin the second Angel had powred out his viall of Doctrine on the See of Romes discipline and Doctrine they became so mad as to murther and massacre the Protestants for the Pope was more mad at Calvin then at Luther as the Papists more hate the Calvinists then the Martinists then all the fish in the Popes See dyed for their Sea was become as the bloud of a dead man for they made all the Catholikes believe that they should merit heaven by killing the Hugonits and they must doe all for the Catholike cause and sang a Te Deum for the murdering of multitudes of Saints and thus was the See of Rome become as the bloud of a dead man and thus all the fish of Papists of the sea of Rome dyed in the faith and in conscience For he that hateth his Brother is a murtherer you know that no murtherer hath eternall life or of faith abiding in him 1 Iohn 3.15 But all that lived in the See of Rome hate their Brethren and are murtherers by rejoycing at the martyrdome of the Saints of Iesus As for the massacres of France Germany and now in Ireland so that all Papists must needs dye and cannot live by faith in the sea of black bloud which is also a sea of Idolatry by Idols of silver and gold and wood and stone by Indulgences pilgrimages purgatory prayer for to the dead a sea of whoredome Re. 9.20 fornication and witch-craft How could any thing live in such a corrupt sea of doctrine and discipline when they made all guilty of the murther of Martyrs under the name of Hereticks and they killed the life of faith into one baptisme into Christs death for remission of sins by teaching no man could have assurance of salvation but he must goe to Purgatory for his sinnes except it were such a fish as could bring up above twenty pence in the mouth or some great piece of money so that as no fish can live mari mortuo in the dead Sea So no true faith can live in the dead bloody idolatrous See of Rome For all men may see that per accidens it was turned into a bloudy dead and rotten stuffe by rejoycing at the murthers of the sanctified And concerning our luke-warme see of Jurisdiction and Hierarchy of England You will graunt that it shall be no more for Christ hath spewed out the Angell and his Episcopacie out of his mouth for luke-warmene●se in faith and conscience For they made a net of 110. articles to have insnared many soules and to have catched many faiths in a new Oath of c. to be Jure Divino and to have tyed mens consciences to a raile and to cringings and to an high Altar and to so many Popes weedes of mans braine How could any good fish live in such pudled waters of a luke-warme sea but would have dyed in faith or conscience therefore because Christ hath spewed the Angell and his Hierarchie out of his mouth there shall be no more luke-warme sea And the See of the Lutherans is become nought and shall passe away for it hath a name it lives but is a dead See lyes in a dead faith that their workes are not perfect before God for they hate their brethren the Calvinists for consubstantiation They sleepe in sinne for they will not be awaked out of the dead faith though Christ become upon them as a Thiefe that is by the judgement of a robbing killing and destroying warre for the Thiefe commeth not but to steale and kill and to destroy John 10.10 If thou wilt not repent and remember what thou hast heard of i. e. by the spirit of Martin Luther and received of the white raiment justification to make thy workes perfect before God and of one baptisme into Christs death for remission of sinnes Christ will never leave comming upon thee as a Thiefe for he hath been upon thee as a Thiefe in judgement to plunder thee by a civill War and as a Thiefe to kill thee sometimes man woman and child he will come upon thee as a Thief to destroy by the Turk For Christ threatened your church that he would come on you as a Thief and now you see he is come and now see Rev. 16.15 Behold I come as a Thiefe and therefore he will never leave comming on thee as a Thiefe and therefore repent and buy gold white raiment and eye-salve or else the Turke will come to destroy thee because thou keepest not Christs garments but walkest naked in sin Also the Presbyterian See of Calvinists will be abolished for suffering Drunkards Usurers and prophane and especially Anabaptists to swim in their See Doe you not know that the denying of their first baptisme was the cause why the Lord sent the Turke into the church of Greece and removed the Candlesticke of the Church out of that place because they forsooke their first love i. e. their first baptisme wherein the first love of Christ is shewed Ephes 5.26 Tit. 3.5 Of the overthrow and departure of all corrupt Sees of Jurisdiction of the churches of the Gentiles for baptisme is good enough by whomsoever a man be baptized If they have faith to believe they were then washed from their sins in Christs bloud Revel 1.5 For hee that believeth and is baptized into Christs death for remission of sinnes shall be saved Mar. 16.16 It is not said in mans state or in Infancy baptized by a faithfull Minister
