chap. 19.19 20. compared with Daniel where he is called a vile Person with the Thessalonians where he is called the Man of Sin in Ezekiel where he is called Gogg and again with Daniel where he is called the little Horn and a King of a fierce countenance understanding dark sentences who shall speak miraculous things against the God of Gods denying all that is called God and worshipped siting in the Temple of God shewing himself that he is God and the signs and wonders spoken of in the Text is those miracles spoken of in Dan. 8.25 Revel 13.13 14 15 16. chap. 16.14 chap. 19.20 and more that might be added I shall only speak but a little to it more because I have spoken of it more at large in my book intituled Zions Redemption Original Sin wherein also I have shewn the difference between the Romish Babylon the Antichrist shewing them to be two one different from the other But at present I say that the cause of these false Christs working signs and wonders will be to deceive the elect viz. the Jews who are commonly called in Scripture the elect that it is that people namely the Jews which he will endeavour to deceive read Dan. 11. ult chap. 12.1 2 7. Zech. 14.1 2 3. And his Throne shall be in Jerusalem amongst the Jews as I have before proved and the Jews looking for Jesus to come according to Daniels and Isaiah's Prophesie which saith Dan. 7.10 Fiery streams issued and come forth from before him thousand thousands ministred unto him c. and the Man of Sin or the false Christ shall have thousand thousands to minister unto him For his Army shall be very great and that he may also have fiery streams issue before him that he may make the Jews believe that he is the true Christ and thereby if it were possible deceive the Jews viz. the elect he causeth fire to come down from Heaven in the sight of men to deceive them that live upon the face of the earth Revel 13.13 at which time the two Prophets shall begin their Prophesie that they may establish the Jews in the Testimony of Jesus and they shall work miracles indeed such as shall destroy all the former ones wrought by the false Christ like as Moses and Aarons Rod eat up the Rods of the Magicians in Egypt and as the false Christ shall have a false Prophet or false Prophets that shall bear their Testimony for the false Christ who will practise lying signs and wonders even so the true Christ shall have two witnesses or Prophets who in truth uprightness shal bear their Testimony for the true Christ who not long after will descend upon the Mount of Olives Zech. 14.4 which true Prophets shall as aforesaid do such things and miracles that shall not only eat up or destroy the other that were false but shall be a sore punishment to the Beast and false Prophet and all that have received his mark in their hand or fore-head that these Prophets and things shall stand up and be done in the very end of time as I may say is clear read the fore mentioned Prophets and compare them together and you shall see it to be true althought I do not deny but there may have been some things done in the World already like it in one sense or another but the fulfilling of these Prophets are to be expired very near the second and glorious coming of the Lord Jesus thus I shall pass to the second thing fore mentioned which is The Desart or secret Chamber I understand is his viz. the false Christ confining himself to a private place to that end that he may be the more sought after and adored for the more privately he contains himself the more he will be sought after for mens fa●cies are set much upon novelties hence the certain GREEK sought to see Jesus John 12.20 And many have a desire to see great ones and more especially if they be confined to privacy but if he be publick he may pass again and again and not be so sought after because they then can see and confer with him when they please Secondly It is a great means to deceive for those that are admitted to see his majesty it 's a thousand to one if they be not deceived partly by doting upon his majesty and partly by going contrary to Gods Word gadding in their minds after vanity and to this end he confines himself to secresie into secret places at his first coming but saith Christ behold I have told you before go not after HIM this brings me to the third particular which is his reason why they shall not go to see a Christ in a Desart or secret Chamber which is Thirdly because saith Christ as the lightening cometh out of the East and shineth even unto the West or from one end of Heaven to the other so shall also the coming of the Son of man be The lightening I understand to be the Sun which lighteneth the Earth rising in the East and shining even unto the West or from one end of Heaven to the other as Luke hath it but if so be that some should understand this lightening as comits or common lightening which is usual in hot wether and in times of thunder and the like It cannot be so understood because that such lightening cometh as often out of the South and West and somtimes North as out of the East and also is so far from being seen from the East even unto the West that somtimes it is seen to be tempestuous lightening wether in one neighbouring Land and not in another and in one County and not in another if not in one parish somtimes and not in another but this lightening shineth from the East even to the West from one end of Heaven unto another the which is to be understood the Sun in the Firmament which lighteneth the earth even from the East unto the West The Scripture discovering her rising in the East and shining unto the West and the glory of the Lord seen like unto the rising of the Sun that shineth into the West and filleth the earth with her light and glory Isa 45.6 chap. 59.19 But let it be the Sun in the Firmament or other lightening yet the matter lyeth here that Jesus Christs coming is not in obscurity but as a light that cometh out of the East and shineth unto the West or shineth from one end of Heaven to another the sequel of the matters is that the Christ that is to be seen in a Desart or secret Chamber namely in a private place is far from being the true Christ that they need not say when the true Christ comes let us go here or there namely into a Desart or secret Chamber or Mountain to see him but he shall be seen at once as the Sun that riseth in the East and is seen by all even to the West without going into Desarts or Chambers or

even so there is a remnant of the twelve Tribes which may fitly be called the remnant of her seed First That there is a remnant left in Jerusalem which shall be persecuted and worn out by the Antichrist for the three years and a half is clear the which I shall speak unto in its distinct order and first to the first that is that there is a remnant left in Jerusalem when the woman flyeth into the Wilderness or into captivity as it is called captivity as well as the Wilderness for to be banished from our native country and to be cast amongst our enemies may fitly be called captivity and that there is a remnant to be left in Jerusalem which do not thus flee or be thus persecuted from their houses and habitations when the City shall be taken and trod under foot is clear from Zech. 14.2 in these words For I will gather all Nations against Jerusalem to battail the City shall be taken the houses rifled and the women ravished and HALF of the City shall go into captivity and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the City From whence we may see that some shall go forth unto captivity and the others shall remain in the City which is called in Revel 12.17 the remnant of her seed so then in the first place you see that some shall go forth of the City at the time when the Gentiles shall take it and spoile it and a remnant shall not be cut off from the City but shall remain in it and that remnant shall be worn out as it were by that wicked person and that it is not Zion namely the two Tribes is clear for she is then out of his reach but that they are of the Tribes of the Children of Israel is as clear for they are the people that he shall make war with and wear them out they are called the children of Daniels people Dan. 12.2 chap. 7.25 So then first there is a remnant left which flie not Zech. 14.2 And secondly they are the people that are to be worn out Dan. 7.25 and 12.7 Zeph. 3.19 And that they may be called the remnant of her seed the Prophet Isaiah alluding to the very same thing saith It shall come to pass in that day that the REMNANT of Israel viz. the remnant of Zions seed and such as escape of the house of Iacob shall no more again stay upon them that smote them but shall stay upon the Lord the holy one of Israel in truth the remnant shall return even the remnant of Jacob unto the mighty God therefore thus saith the Lord God of Hoast O my people that dwell in Zion be not afraid of the Assyrian viz. the Antichrist he shall smite thee with a rod and shall lift up his staff against thee after the manner of Egypt for yet A VERY LITTLE WHILE 1260 dayes and the indignation shall cease and my anger in their destruction and the Lord shall stir up a scourge for him according to the slaughter of Midian at the rock Orib and it shall come to pass in that day that his burthen shall be taken away from off thy shoulders and his yoak from off thy neck c. Isa 10 20 21 24 25 26 27. this agrees with Ezek. 38. and 39. Chapters and with Mich. 5. and many places that might be added but I shall leave this saying that you may see that there is a people or a woman to flie into the Wilderness and a remnant to remain in the City which the Assyrian viz. the Antichrist shall lift up his staff against and make war with them agreeing with Revel 12.27 and this remnant we see to be part of the house of Israel Isa 10.20 and so I pass to the next thing which is the fourth thing of the taking up of the Man-child to God and to his Throne Fourthly as to this fourth particular I have already spoken to and therefore at present I shall be very brief saying that by taking of the Man-child to God and to his Throne I understand to be meant that at the time of the Lords first coming into the Clouds of Heaven even into the ayr with his holy Angels that then the war shall be in Heaven between Michael and his Angels and the Devil and his Angels and the Devil shall be cast down and with him his Angels that the ayre may be cleared and made fit for Christ and his Saints to meet there for in very deed I do understand that God did confine the evil Angels unto or into the ayre for their residence until the resurrection of the Saints and the taking up of the living which I understand to be the Man-child and just at or a little before the time that they are taken up the Devil shall be cast down into the earth at which time he shall give the Beast his seat and power and great authority and in that time there will be lying signs and miracles wrought at which time it shall be said Woe woe woe be to the inhabitants of the Earth and Sea for the Devil is come down with great wrath because he knoweth that his time is short and seeing himself cast down he shall persecute the Woman and God shall give her the wings of an Eagle that she may flie from his face and that will cause him to make war with the remnant of her seed in which time the Lord shall abate his wrath and cruelty which he would exercise in and by the Beast upon the remnant of the Womans seed by pouring out his Vials on the Beast and by giving power to his two witnesses not only to Prophesie and establish the remnant of the Womans seed left in Jerusalem but also to smite the Beast and his followers with plagues so often as they please Revel 11. And in short thus the taking up of the Man-child I understand is when the Lord shall first appear in the Clouds as before said that then he shall with a voyce and with the sound of a Trumpet awake the dead and gather all the living Saints together both the raised dead and changed living and forthwith they shall be caught up to meet Christ but the rest of the dead men shall not live again until a thousand years after Revel 20.6 7 8. neither shall the living which have not before prepared themselves to meet the Bride-groom by walking in his wayes and keeping his Ordinances be taken up but shall be left upon earth there is none but those that are accounted as Eagles that shall be with Christ for where the carkas is there shall the Eagles be gathered together that is where Christ is thither will his body namely the Gospel Church or his bride be and this is clear from many Scriptures that the Saints shall be first raised and caught up before the rest of the dead or living as I before in this Book have proved at large and thus I pass this fourth
