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

persecution_n of_o the_o woman_n 16._o v._o 16._o he_o move_v the_o earth_n to_o help_v this_o distress_a woman_n and_o to_o open_v her_o mouth_n and_o to_o swallow_v up_o the_o flood_n which_o the_o

the_o senseless_a creature_n be_v obedient_a instrument_n to_o do_v their_o service_n unto_o god_n both_o to_o punish_v the_o wicked_a and_o to_o help_v the_o godly_a as_o the_o rage_a sea_n be_v a_o

mean_v by_o this_o earth_n that_o have_v a_o mouth_n to_o be_v open_v for_o the_o defence_n and_o preservation_n of_o the_o woman_n and_o it_o be_v strange_a unto_o i_o that_o so_o learned_a a_o man_n 47._o mr._n mede_n pag._n 47._o as_o mr._n mede_n shall_v by_o the_o earth_n understand_v the_o bishop_n and_o doctor_n that_o be_v gather_v together_o in_o the_o general_a counsel_n because_o i_o

although_o all_o flesh_n be_v grass_n and_o every_o man_n be_v but_o dust_n and_o ash_n and_o therefore_o the_o prophet_n say_v o_o earth_n earth_n earth_n hear_v the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n yet_o be_v regenerate_v and_o fill_v with_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n spirit_n and_o have_v their_o thought_n and_o their_o desire_n mount_v up_o from_o the_o earth_n and_o their_o conversation_n in_o

be_v nothing_o but_o earth_n and_o therefore_o i_o conceive_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o word_n to_o be_v that_o god_n in_o the_o time_n of_o this_o persecution_n of_o the_o woman_n 7._o ●_o 12.10_o

the_o worse_a and_o most_o spiteful_a sort_n of_o the_o instrument_n of_o the_o dragon_n that_o they_o shall_v not_o utter_o destroy_v all_o the_o child_n of_o the_o woman_n and_o servant_n of_o god_n but_o shall_v suffer_v they_o to_o live_v which_o the_o more_o virulent_a party_n will_v have_v quite_o extinguish_v and_o to_o let_v they_o compound_v for_o their_o estate_n that_o they_o may_v have_v some_o small_a livelihood_n to_o support_v they_o 16.7_o whether_o this_o also_o be_v not_o fulfil_v in_o and_o by_o the_o long_a parliament_n let_v the_o reader_n judge_n prov._n 16.7_o after_o all_o their_o plunder_v and_o persecution_n and_o so_o god_n deal_v with_o they_o that_o serve_v he_o and_o continue_v constant_a to_o discharge_v their_o duty_n that_o as_o the_o prophet_n speak_v he_o make_v their_o enemy_n to_o become_v their_o friend_n and_o to_o be_v their_o helper_n as_o here_o the_o very_a worldling_n do_v open_a their_o mouth_n and_o make_v speech_n to_o preserve_v many_o of_o god_n child_n and_o whether_o such_o a_o thing_n as_o this_o happen_v not_o in_o the_o last_o long_a parliament_n i_o leave_v it_o to_o my_o judicious_a reader_n to_o consider_v
