A77950	A measure of the times: and a full & clear description of the signes of the times, and of the changing of the times; and of the reign of Antichrist, who hath long reigned, and of his down-fall, which is at hand; and of the kingdom of Christ which is now setting up in the earth. Shewing unto all people in all nations, what the state of things hath been in ages past, and what the state of things are at this present day. ... And also, here it is manifest, concerning the teachers of this age, and the root from whence they sprang, who are manifest to be of that stock of false prophets, which Christ prophesied of should come, and which the Apostles saw was coming in their dayes, and how that the night of darknesse hath been upon all, for many generations: ... And also, the restauration is described, which shortly cometh, wherein Christ shall reign, whose right it is, and shall change laws and decrees, and the lamb shall be the light of all nations, ... and their King shall possesse the uttermost parts of the earth. By one who hath measured the times, who is come to the day that hath made all things manifest. Edw: Burrough.

and_o outward_a observance_n which_o be_v not_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n in_o the_o spirit_n and_o in_o the_o truth_n but_o superstitious_a and_o idolatrous_a and_o when_o the_o word_n of_o god_n

none_o can_v be_v minister_n of_o christ_n but_o such_o who_o be_v learn_v in_o the_o language_n and_o know_v the_o original_n of_o scripture_n latin_a and_o greek_a and_o hebrew_n not_o any_o of_o these_o have_v receive_v the_o gospel_n by_o revelation_n or_o the_o word_n of_o god_n from_o his_o mouth_n and_o when_o sing_v in_o the_o spirit_n and_o with_o understanding_n be_v cease_v and_o

in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o apostle_n manifest_v and_o know_v then_o in_o the_o apostasy_n the_o deceit_n grow_v into_o the_o form_n of_o every_o thing_n which_o the_o saint_n have_v enjoy_v in_o the_o power_n and_o so_o be_v shadow_n set_v up_o instead_o of_o substance_n and_o death_n instead_o of_o life_n and_o the_o form_n without_o the_o power_n which_o in_o many_o branch_n spring_v

since_o the_o day_n of_o the_o apostle_n thus_o it_o have_v be_v and_o those_o very_a teacher_n and_o suppose_a minister_n which_o now_o be_v in_o this_o and_o other_o nation_n be_v of_o that_o very_a

may_v easy_o be_v prove_v that_o they_o be_v of_o that_o generation_n of_o teacher_n and_o false_a prophet_n which_o christ_n prophesy_v of_o shall_v come_v and_o which_o the_o apostle_n see_v be_v

that_o then_o be_v come_v and_o come_v from_o whence_o we_o do_v conclude_v according_a to_o sound_a judgement_n that_o these_o very_a teacher_n be_v of_o the_o same_o generation_n and_o branch_n of_o the_o same_o root_n which_o spring_v forth_o then_o and_o in_o paul_n writing_n you_o may_v read_v such_o they_o be_v who_o he_o see_v of_o who_o he_o bid_v people_n to_o beware_v and_o say_v perilous_a time_n will_v come_v and_o man_n shall_v be_v lover_n of_o themselves_o covetous_a proud_a blasphemer_n disobedient_a to_o parent_n unthankful_a unholy_a without_o natural_a affection_n false_a accuser_n fierce_a despiser_n of_o those_o that_o be_v good_a heady_a high_a mind_a lover_n of_o pleasure_n more_o than_o lover_n of_o god_n have_v a_o form_n of_o godliness_n but_o deny_v the_o power_n and_o such_o of_o who_o people_n be_v ever_o learn_v but_o never_o able_a to_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n for_o people_n be_v lade_v with_o sin_n and_o lead_v away_o with_o divers_a lust_n and_o these_o do_v resist_v the_o truth_n as_o jannes_n and_o jambre_n who_o withstand_v moses_n by_o make_v likeness_n without_o life_n and_o they_o be_v man_n of_o corrupt_a mind_n and_o reprobate_a concerning_o the_o faith_n now_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o these_o teacher_n in_o this_o generation_n be_v of_o that_o very_a stock_n which_o paul_n describe_v such_o he_o see_v will_v come_v and_o such_o we_o see_v be_v come_v and_o by_o their_o fruit_n we_o know_v they_o as_o christ_n say_v and_o paul_n word_n be_v fullfil_v for_o these_o teacher_n be_v lover_n of_o themselves_o and_o covetous_a and_o proud_a this_o be_v plain_a to_o all_o people_n and_o blasphemer_n who_o deny_v christ_n to_o have_v light_v every_o man_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o they_o deny_v scripture_n and_o so_o be_v disobedient_a and_o unholy_a man_n and_o without_o natural_a affection_n who_o many_o of_o they_o have_v cause_v the_o innocent_a to_o be_v imprison_v and_o some_o have_v die_v in_o prison_n and_o they_o the_o chief_a cause_n of_o this_o and_o this_o be_v without_o natural_a affection_n to_o the_o creature_n and_o they_o be_v false_a accuser_n and_o liar_n and_o fierce_a in_o their_o book_n and_o preach_n as_o be_v manifest_a through_o all_o this_o nation_n and_o they_o great_o despise_v those_o that_o be_v good_a and_o prepare_v war_n against_o such_o as_o do_v not_o put_v into_o their_o mouth_n and_o they_o be_v heady_a and_o high_a mind_a and_o lover_n of_o vanity_n and_o pleasure_n this_o be_v evident_a without_o proof_n and_o they_o have_v a_o form_n of_o godliness_n they_o say_v all_o shall_v be_v teach_v of_o god_n but_o when_o any_o come_v to_o witness_v it_o and_o deny_v their_o teach_n they_o cry_v against_o such_o as_o heretic_n and_o thus_o they_o have_v the_o word_n and_o the_o form_n but_o deny_v the_o power_n and_o they_o be_v ever_o teach_v twenty_o and_o forty_o year_n and_o more_o but_o none_o able_a ever_o to_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n by_o they_o but_o ●●il_n in_o blindness_n and_o darkness_n still_o and_o people_n cry_v out_o who_o have_v be_v learn_v many_o year_n from_o they_o that_o they_o do_v not_o know_v the_o truth_n and_o its_o plain_a that_o these_o teacher_n be_v of_o that_o sort_n that_o paul_n speak_v of_o who_o bring_v none_o to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n for_o people_n that_o follow_v they_o be_v lade_v with_o sin_n and_o lead_v away_o with_o divers_a lust_n and_o these_o have_v and_o do_v resist_v the_o truth_n everywhere_o they_o deny_v that_o christ_n have_v light_v every_o man_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n and_o so_o resist_v truth_n and_o deny_v scripture_n and_o the_o truth_n as_o you_o may_v read_v john_n 1._o 9_o and_o they_o be_v corrupt_v mind_v even_o wicked_a persecutor_n and_o suer_n at_o law_n and_o earthly_a mind_v and_o covetous_a and_o oppressor_n and_o be_v whole_o reprobate_a concerning_o the_o faith_n and_o thus_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o the_o root_n of_o these_o teacher_n be_v spring_v in_o the_o apostle_n day_n and_o have_v grow_v ever_o since_o in_o this_o dark_a night_n of_o apostasy_n and_o have_v fill_v the_o nation_n again_o the_o apostle_n see_v that_o many_o shall_v depart_v from_o the_o faith_n give_v heed_n to_o seduce_a spirit_n and_o doctrine_n of_o devil_n speak_v lie_n in_o hypocrisy_n have_v their_o conscience_n sear_v as_o with_o a_o hot_a iron_n now_o these_o teacher_n be_v of_o that_o stock_n which_o be_v depart_v from_o the_o true_a faith_n for_o they_o be_v without_o true_a faith_n and_o reprobate_a concerning_o it_o who_o be_v in_o iniquity_n and_o sin_n and_o the_o work_n of_o the_o world_n which_o be_v evil_a now_o faith_n purify_v the_o heart_n from_o all_o this_o but_o their_o heart_n be_v not_o purify_v but_o pollute_v with_o covetousness_n and_o preach_v for_o hire_n and_o persecute_v and_o envy_n and_o therefore_o they_o have_v not_o faith_n and_o so_o be_v of_o that_o generation_n which_o depart_v from_o the_o faith_n after_o the_o apostle_n time_n which_o they_o see_v will_v come_v and_o these_o do_v seduce_v and_o their_o doctrine_n be_v of_o the_o devil_n who_o deny_v the_o truth_n which_o the_o scripture_n bear_v witness_n of_o and_o say_v sprinkle_v infant_n with_o water_n when_o they_o be_v two_o or_o three_o day_n old_a be_v baptism_n into_o the_o faith_n of_o christ_n this_o be_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o lie_v they_o speak_v in_o great_a number_n and_o in_o hypocrisy_n and_o write_v they_o forth_o to_o the_o world_n in_o great_a hypocrisy_n with_o feignedness_n and_o pretence_n of_o holiness_n and_o its_o plain_a many_o of_o their_o conscience_n be_v sear_v how_o do_v many_o of_o they_o cause_v the_o poor_a people_n to_o suffer_v grievous_a imprisonment_n
