to make it appeare that every one of the first three thundring Angels contain a Jubile after the custom of the Levites Prophets who divide great dates by Jubiles and small dates by weeks or years we judg apparantly this last Age to be divided by Iubiles and every thunder or Angel of these three that are said in the Text Ch. 14. v. 6 8 9. to pretend Gods great Harvest to containe a Jubilee which is 49. yeares and that the 4. last thundring Angels all at once compleateth the day of Judgement In the 14 chapter v. 14 16. it is said that the fourth thundring Angel which is Christ himselfe enters actually into this great harvest to gather up his Elect at the warning of the fifth Angell even Gods holy spirit ver 15. like as contrarily the sixth thundring Angel executor of Gods fierce wrath mentioned v. 17.19 is admonished and warned by the seventh Angel commander thereof to cut downe and tread out the Vines of the earth into the wine-presse of Gods wrath and so by these 4. last Angels or Thunders to wit by Christ himselfe and by his whole ministr●ng Angels under the figure of these last Angels all the whole great day of Gods harvest and l●tter Judgement is accomplished 1. The f●●st or the three first Angels Iubile begin The last of the 7. Seales and the first of the seven Trumpets began both at once in the yeare of Christ 71. so in like manner the last of the seven Trumpets and the first of the seven thunder begin both at once in the yeare of Christ 1541. In c. 11. v. 5. it is said that at the blast of the 7. Trumpet the Kingdome of the World becommeth Christs Kingdom that is then the Kingdom of Antichrist all other prophane Kingdoms shall fall and Christs Kingdome shall be spred and inlarged overall and this can no other way come to passe then by the preaching of the Evangel which was of new opened preached at the coming of the first Angell whom the text saith to have an everlasting Gospel to preach unto them that dwell upon the earth which Angel as I said before is manifest to be the first of the seven thunders therfore it followeth consequently that the new restoring of the Evangel the seventh Trumpet and the first Thunder or thundring Angel come all at once in An. 1541. about which year God stirreth up openly his first Ministers and servants Luther Calvin Melancthon and others v. 6 7. to preach out during all this Jubile the perfect verity of the Gospel publikely which before was hid and obscured under the Antichristian reign so that the true Church lurketh no more but Gods truth to all the world is made apparant by these Ministers teaching them according to the Text to feare God onely and leaving all other superstitious worshipping to give glory onely unto him 2. The first of these 3. Iubiles if you reck●n you shall easily find that it ended in Ann. Christi 1590. And then came the second of the seven thundring Angels declaring even presently the horrible fall and decay to become of that figurative Babylon and great Antichristian City about which time to wit the end of the first Iubile and beginning of the second God hath shewed marvellous indices that the Empire of Rome and Papisticall Kingdome shall sho●●ly fall the Antichristian and Spanish Fleet is destroyed the late King of Fra●●e Duke of Guiz● and his Brother Papists and Committers of the Parisian Massacre all murthered ●y other a Protestant now made King of France this Iubile endeth in the yeare 1639. 3. After that comes the third Iubile or the third thundring and threatning Messenger openly and loudly threatning that if any be now that do worship o● reverence that Antichristian Empire or that receive the old superstitious marks thereof on their foreheads or on their hands the same shall drinke of Gods wrath so that in this third Jubile the Ministers and Messengers of God sh●ll God-willing have only the latter dregs of that Romish feat to admonish and threaten by open intimation that if any be in whose hearts the reverence of that ruined Empire or if any now be marked with Chrisme or Crosse on hand or head he shall be tormented eternally in the fire of Hell 4 5 6 7. Then adde to 1639. 49. yeares and the day of Judgement appeares to fall about 1688. plainly proved by Scripture IIII. Concerning the Symboll of the Sabboth FIrst as touching the Symboll of the Sabboth it is thought by the most learned that the six dayes of labour weekly observed doth meane and beare the Symboll of 6000. yeares that mankind shall endure the travells and cares of this world and that is confirmed by Peter who speaking of the day of Judgement noteth that a thousand yeares shall be as one day in Gods sight and a day as a thousand yeares and so consequently the sixe dayes of worke to represent six thousand yeares after the which six thousand yeares of worldly cares and travells then shall come our eternall Sabboth and rest in the glory of Heaven signified by the seaventh dayes rest for that truly there is no institution appointed by God to Moses which besides the civill commodity had not also a spirituall figure and sure it is that no figure agreeth more consonant with these sixe dayes of worke and seventh day of rest then the present miseries of this world and eternall Sabboth hereafter V. Concerning the Prophesie of Elias SEcondly agreeable to the former there is a sentence of the house of Elias reserved in all ages bearing these words the world shall stand six thousand yeares and then it shall be consumed with fire two thousand yeares void or without Law two thousand yeares under the Law and two thousand ye●●s shall be the dayes of the Messias and for our offences which shall be many a●d great shall these years lack which shall lack thus farre saith Elias Now the term of these 6000. years doth expire about the 2000. year of Christ which term both by the said saying of Elias and by Christs own saying in Matthew appeareth to be shortened VI. Concerning the Prophecie of Daniel BVt by Daniel we shall approach nearer that terme for in his 12. Chapter intreating both of the first resurrection which is the resurrection from the Antichristian errours and of the second resurrection which is the generall resurrection from the dead such an Angell as afterwards appeareth to Iohn Rev. 10. teaching him concerning the latter day doth here appear to Daniel swearing solemnly a term of Propheticall days doubled by the Prophet of which the greatest terme is expressed to be 1335. Propheticall days which ●re so many yeers whose beginnings are determined in these words and from the time that the daily sacrifice shall cease and the abomination put to deso●●tion or made desolate shal be 1290. dayes blessed is he that waiteth and abideth to the 1335. day as if he should say from that
