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

the_o acceptable_a year_n of_o the_o lord_n unto_o who_o there_o be_v nothing_o acceptable_a which_o be_v imperfect_a certain_o there_o be_v no_o manner_n of_o slave_n so_o well_o content_v with_o their_o bondage_n as_o the_o devil_n be_v be_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v worth_a the_o consider_v what_o right_o he_o have_v to_o reign_v over_o mankind_n and_o what_o work_v it_o be_v he_o give_v his_o servant_n to_o do_v that_o be_v so_o well_o please_v unto_o they_o that_o they_o can_v endure_v to_o hear_v of_o be_v set_v at_o liberty_n as_o long_o as_o they_o have_v a_o day_n to_o live_v as_o for_o my_o part_n i_o have_v consider_v what_o right_a the_o devil_n can_v claim_v to_o the_o government_n which_o he_o have_v among_o the_o child_n of_o man_n reign_v over_o king_n and_o

for_o any_o to_o be_v so_o the_o general_a answer_n be_v no_o we_o be_v all_o and_o must_v be_v all_o his_o servant_n all_o the_o day_n of_o our_o life_n but_o some_o may_v say_v see_v you_o be_v

soul_n long_v that_o some_o may_v be_v awaken_v once_o to_o consider_v and_o to_o bethink_v themselves_o how_o they_o come_v to_o this_o state_n and_o condition_n and_o by_o what_o right_a and_o

be_v to_o be_v consider_v that_o this_o spirit_n which_o be_v call_v the_o devil_n and_o satan_n have_v no_o dominion_n over_o man_n in_o the_o beginning_n for_o god_n give_v man_n power_n over_o all_o beast_n fish_n fowl_n and_o over_o every_o creep_a thing_n that_o he_o shall_v rule_v over_o they_o and_o in_o that_o time_n the_o devil_n that_o old_a creep_a serpent_n be_v keep_v under_o and_o can_v not_o speak_v nor_o command_v as_o with_o authority_n and_o he_o be_v but_o a_o subject_n himself_o he_o seek_v to_o have_v dominion_n have_v lose_v the_o glory_n of_o the_o everlasting_a

that_o she_o shall_v break_v the_o command_n of_o god_n under_o pretence_n that_o she_o shall_v be_v profit_v thereby_o so_o here_o be_v but_o a_o sneak_v under_o spirit_n come_v to_o the_o woman_n in_o a_o deceitful_a feign_a manner_n with_o a_o lie_n in_o his_o mouth_n to_o see_v if_o he_o can_v deceive_v she_o and_o lead_v she_o to_o be_v disobedient_a to_o her_o god_n and_o maker_n who_o can_v then_o have_v think_v that_o this_o spirit_n that_o be_v subject_a to_o all_o sort_n of_o misery_n shall_v have_v reign_v and_o rule_v over_o so_o many_o million_o of_o thousand_o of_o man_n both_o high_a and_o low_a young_a and_o old_a well_o the_o woman_n hearken_v after_o a_o lie_n and_o break_v the_o command_n of_o god_n and_o go_v to_o try_v whether_o this_o serpent_n have_v find_v out_o a_o way_n to_o make_v she_o better_o or_o not_o and_o not_o only_o so_o but_o go_v to_o the_o man_n and_o give_v he_o also_o and_o he_o do_v eat_v mark_v this_o devil_n the_o old_a serpent_n

to_o tempt_v he_o he_o do_v not_o hearken_v to_o the_o devil_n but_o to_o his_o deceive_a wife_n and_o he_o do_v eat_v and_o their_o eye_n be_v open_v and_o they_o be_v ashamed_a and_o hide_v
