A34984	An alarum sounded in the borders of spiritual Egypt vvhich shall be heard in Babylon, and astonish the inhabitants of the defiled and polluted habitations of the earth. And the power of the Prince of Darkness called into question; and he himself examin'd by the truth, how he came to raign over mankind; and how long his time shall be, till he comes to be cast out of his dominion, and the creature be deliver'd from under his tyranny; to serve God in spirit and in truth, as Christ, the prince of peace, has order'd them. Also the number of him whom the world hath wonder'd after, found out; and demonstrated to be near at an end: and withal, that it is no wayes unlawful, nor in vain, both to hope, and to expect the utter desolation, and destruction of sin in this life, and the setting up of perfect righteousness in the souls of men, where sin has too long raign'd. Written in a testimony to the truth, and against the false position of the devil, and his servants; by a servant of God, Steven Crisp.	Crisp, Stephen, 1628-1692.	1671 (1671)	Wing C6922; ESTC R215182	35,940	50

be_v do_v and_o his_o one_o thousand_o two_o hundred_o and_o sixty_o year_n be_v prosperous_a to_o his_o kingdom_n and_o he_o do_v what_o he_o please_v and_o if_o any_o speak_v against_o he_o and_o

which_o the_o devil_n have_v set_v up_o in_o we_o that_o be_v impossible_a and_o therefore_o it_o be_v in_o vain_a to_o trouble_v ourselves_o about_o it_o and_o we_o will_v not_o do_v any_o thing_n concern_v it_o see_v we_o have_v drink_v in_o a_o faith_n that_o it_o be_v impossible_a to_o perform_v or_o accomplish_v it_o and_o thus_o have_v the_o whole_a world_n be_v bewitch_v in_o the_o time_n when_o the_o devil_n reign_v and_o will_v he_o and_o his_o servant_n make_v we_o believe_v that_o it_o must_v continue_v so_o always_o though_o never_o any_o other_o time_n be_v give_v he_o but_o such_o as_o be_v limit_v and_o in_o the_o end_n of_o that_o time_n we_o understand_v there_o be_v a_o great_a alteration_n to_o come_v to_o pass_v to_o wit_n that_o the_o church_n the_o true_a woman_n

such_o a_o great_a mystery_n to_o they_o they_o know_v it_o be_v common_a to_o reckon_v a_o day_n for_o a_o year_n among_o the_o prophet_n so_o that_o that_o time_n be_v but_o four_o hundred_o

church_n according_a to_o the_o first_o institution_n then_o say_v the_o presbyterian_o and_o dutch_a predicant_o the_o bishop_n in_o the_o primitive_a church_n be_v not_o such_o as_o you_o be_v but_o

in_o that_o day_n there_o be_v yet_o another_o prophecy_n of_o christ_n when_o he_o say_v when_o you_o see_v the_o abomination_n of_o desolation_n stand_v in_o the_o holy_a place_n where_o it_o
