A62896 An awakening voice to the Papists declaring to them the fallen state of the Pope from Peter's, and of the Church of Rome from what it once was : in love to the souls of those who have any uprightness in their hearts towards the Lord (but through ignorance are held in bondage) that they may be awaked, and see where they lie, and if any shall smother these things, lest they should come to the sight or knowledge of that people, let them take heed, that they bring not upon themselves the guilt of their blood / William Tomlinson. Tomlinson, William. 1673 (1673) Wing T1845; ESTC R10231 20,715 28

they_o to_o consider_v that_o the_o man_n of_o sin_n the_o son_n of_o perdition_n which_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o be_v not_o to_o be_v reveal_v till_o that_o which_o withhold_v the_o mystery_n of_o iniquity_n be_v take_v out_o of_o the_o way_n and_o so_o it_o have_v its_o appoint_a time_n of_o work_v of_o get_v up_o of_o be_v reveal_v and_o of_o be_v head_v by_o that_o man_n of_o sin_n and_o also_o of_o be_v consume_v and_o destroy_v as_o be_v evident_a from_o this_o forenamed_a chapter_n 2_o thes_n 2._o i_o will_v not_o have_v any_o think_v that_o i_o speak_v against_o the_o search_a out_o of_o that_o inward_a mystery_n of_o iniquity_n lie_v and_o lurk_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n but_o it_o be_v my_o present_a work_n to_o discover_v something_o of_o that_o false_a mystery_n that_o have_v rise_v up_o as_o a_o compact_a body_n politic_a or_o city_n and_o be_v head_v by_o a_o particular_a person_n in_o imitation_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n and_o of_o

〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d rev._n 9.11_o and_o paul_n here_o call_v he_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d both_o from_o one_o root_n which_o signify_v destroy_v for_o he_o be_v a_o destroyer_n and_o must_v go_v into_o destruction_n or_o perdition_n and_o so_o judas_n be_v call_v by_o the_o same_o name_n who_o betray_v the_o innocent_a blood_n he_o be_v call_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d the_o son_n of_o

may_v this_o shedder_n of_o innocent_a blood_n have_v the_o same_o name_n give_v he_o which_o be_v give_v to_o judas_n who_o betray_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o innocent_a see_v they_o both_o agree_v in_o one_o spirit_n of_o commit_v murder_n there_o be_v only_o this_o difference_n that_o judas_n have_v not_o a_o mystery_n to_o act_v under_o but_o this_o have_v a_o mystery_n of_o iniquity_n to_o act_v his_o part_n under_o which_o be_v not_o then_o rise_v in_o judas_n time_n and_o so_o that_o which_o then_o go_v for_o plain_a downright_a treason_n and_o murder_n now_o go_v for_o something_o more_o plausible_a that_o it_o may_v not_o be_v count_v murder_n but_o the_o just_a judgement_n of_o god_n upon_o heretic_n or_o the_o just_a censure_n of_o the_o church_n against_o heretic_n and_o then_o the_o people_n teach_v this_o bloody_a tenent_n that_o it_o be_v no_o sin_n to_o kill_v a_o heritick_n and_o so_o the_o great_a murder_n of_o the_o papist_n come_v to_o be_v look_v upon_o as_o good_a service_n do_v to_o god_n o_o horrid_a mystery_n to_o make_v so_o great_a a_o crime_n which_o be_v not_o where_o tolerate_v or_o countenance_v by_o christ_n or_o any_o of_o his_o apostle_n but_o utter_o forbid_v and_o the_o quite_o contrary_a teach_v by_o they_o i_o say_v to_o make_v this_o look_n as_o a_o piece_n of_o service_n do_v for_o god_n so_o here_o the_o shed_n of_o blood_n of_o innocent_a person_n have_v get_v a_o mask_n over_o it_o and_o be_v act_v in_o a_o mystery_n the_o great_a crime_n how_o fair_a a_o pretence_n it_o have_v get_v and_o so_o they_o that_o be_v involve_v in_o this_o mystery_n they_o come_v to_o be_v drunken_a with_o the_o blood_n of_o saint_n and_o this_o stand_v as_o a_o inseparable_a mark_n upon_o the_o mystery_n of_o iniquity_n revel_v 17.6_o blood_n of_o saint_n blood_n of_o martyr_n but_o how_o do_v this_o their_o tenent_n and_o practice_n answer_v the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n jesus_n our_o lord_n and_o of_o the_o holy_a apostle_n while_o he_o be_v in_o the_o body_n he_o go_v about_o do_v good_a but_o do_v no_o harm_n to_o any_o nor_o will_v suffer_v it_o to_o be_v do_v to_o any_o and_o therefore_o he_o forbid_v james_n and_o john_n when_o they_o will_v have_v call_v for_o fire_n down_o from_o heaven_n upon_o those_o that_o do_v not_o receive_v he_o it_o be_v say_v he_o turn_v and_o rebuke_v they_o and_o say_v you_o know_v not_o what_o spirit_n you_o be_v of_o for_o the_o son_n of_o man_n be_v not_o come_v to_o destroy_v man_n life_n but_o to_o save_v they_o luke_n 9.55_o 56._o but_o you_o see_v that_o the_o mystery_n of_o iniquity_n be_v come_v for_o another_o end_n even_o to_o destroy_v man_n life_n so_o when_o pater_n draw_v his_o sword_n and_o cut_v of_o the_o ear_n of_o malchus_n servant_n to_o the_o high_a priest_n jesus_n will_v not_o suffer_v it_o to_o pass_v without_o heal_v it_o again_o and_o say_v to_o peter_n put_v up_o thy_o sword_n again_o into_o his_o place_n for_o all_o that_o take_v the_o sword_n shall_v perish_v with_o the_o sword_n mat._n 26.52_o and_o christ_n tell_v his_o disciple_n that_o the_o time_n will_v come_v that_o man_n shall_v put_v they_o out_o of_o their_o synagogue_n yea_o and_o kill_v they_o and_o think_v that_o in_o so_o do_v they_o do_v god_n service_n just_a as_o they_o do_v under_o the_o mystery_n of_o iniquity_n but_o mark_v from_o what_o ground_n these_o thing_n will_v they_o do_v unto_o you_o say_v he_o because_o they_o know_v not_o the_o father_n nor_o i_o john_n 16.3_o so_o that_o you_o may_v see_v that_o ignorance_n which_o among_o the_o papist_n

of_o their_o soul_n and_o so_o set_v his_o subject_n against_o they_o and_o animate_v they_o to_o destroy_v such_o 4._o and_o for_o be_v a_o ensample_n to_o the_o flock_n he_o be_v far_o from_o that_o

mention_v the_o pope_n have_v make_v a_o distinction_n among_o his_o believer_n thus_o some_o he_o call_v clergy_n and_o some_o he_o call_v laity_n the_o flock_n or_o body_n of_o his_o believer_n he_o call_v laity_n whereas_o peter_n call_v the_o plock_n that_o believe_v in_o christ_n and_o be_v to_o be_v say_v and_o nourish_v with_o the_o word_n of_o life_n peter_n call_v they_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d or_o clergy_n that_o be_v heritage_n or_o lot_n so_o he_o call_v the_o body_n of_o true_a believer_n god_n lot_n or_o heritage_n and_o the_o pope_n apply_v that_o only_a to_o his_o clergy_n who_o be_v in_o his_o holy_a order_n as_o he_o account_v they_o thus_o he_o have_v cast_v off_o the_o form_n of_o peter_n sound_a word_n and_o have_v take_v up_o another_o unsound_a form_n of_o word_n contrary_a to_o peter_n of_o who_o he_o boast_v and_o the_o protestent_n have_v not_o yet_o reform_v themselves_o thorough_o in_o that_o particular_a but_o they_o still_o call_v their_o priest_n or_o teacher_n clergy_n and_o the_o rest-laity_n as_o much_o as_o to_o say_v the_o common_a people_n thus_o as_o the_o state_n of_o the_o popish_a church_n be_v fall_v from_o its_o purity_n so_o their_o language_n be_v also_o change_v with_o it_o and_o see_v the_o pope_n who_o boast_v of_o be_v peter_n successor_n have_v thus_o degenerate_v from_o the_o write_a tradition_n of_o peter_n what_o safe_a ground_n can_v any_o have_v to_o believe_v he_o in_o those_o he_o call_v unwritten_a tradition_n thus_o you_o may_v see_v what_o a_o vast_a difference_n there_o be_v between_o peter_n and_o the_o pope_n who_o pretend_v to_o descend_v from_o he_o 1._o peter_n feed_v the_o flock_n and_o exhort_v the_o elder_n who_o be_v to_o be_v bishop_n over_o the_o flock_n to_o feed_v they_o 2._o
