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. Burrough, Edward, 1634-1662. 1657 (1657) Wing B6012; Thomason E919_6; ESTC R207505 31,897 44

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

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

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
