A66360 Ho Antichristos the great antichrist revealed, before this time never discovered, and proved to be neither pope, nor Turk, nor any single person, nor the succession of any one monarch or tyrant in any policies, but a collected pack, or multitude of hypocritical, heretical, blasphemous, and most scandalous wicked men that have fulfilled all the prophesies of the Scriptures ... and especially have united ... together by a solemn league and covenant to slay the two witnesses of God, Moses and Aaron ... that is, the supreme magistrate of the Commonwealth, and the chief pastors and governours of the Church of Christ, and the Christian world is requested to judge whether the Assembly of Presbyterians consulting at Westminster, together with the independents, Anabaptists, and lay-preachers be not the false prophet ... and whether the prevalent faction of the long Parliament ... that killed the two witnesses of Jesus Christ, 1. Charles the First ... 2. William Laud ... be not the grosse and visible body of the same antichrist / by Gr. Williams. Williams, Gryffith, 1589?-1672. 1660 (1660) Wing W2662; ESTC R25201 504,825 313

when_o they_o ascribe_v justification_n to_o the_o inherent_a work_n of_o man_n for_o what_o be_v inherent_a in_o we_o must_v needs_o be_v we_o and_o therefore_o if_o we_o be_v justify_v as_o they_o

god_n make_v because_o it_o be_v better_a to_o be_v a_o just_a man_n than_o to_o be_v a_o man_n but_o we_o ascribe_v nothing_o to_o ourselves_o but_o all_o to_o our_o saviour_n christ_n when_o we_o
