A34679	An exposition upon the thirteenth chapter of the Revelation by that reverend and eminent servant of the Lord, Mr. John Cotton ... ; taken from his mouth in short-writing, and some part of it corrected by himself soon after the preaching thereof ; and all of it since viewed over by a friend to him ... wherein some mistakes were amended, but nothing of the sense altered.	Cotton, John, 1584-1652.; Allen, Thomas.	1656 (1656)	Wing C6432; ESTC R6199	216,496	285

discharge_v of_o this_o burden_n this_o be_v very_o plausable_a to_o carnal_a reason_n especial_o if_o they_o give_v so_o much_o to_o such_o a_o monastery_n that_o they_o may_v offer_v so_o many_o

wonder_v after_o the_o beast_n say_v who_o be_v like_a unto_o the_o beast_n who_o be_v able_a to_o make_v war_n with_o he_o not_o the_o emperor_n of_o the_o east_n and_o west_n not_o the_o king_n of_o

this_o point_n be_v thus_o much_o first_o 1_o you_o may_v observe_v from_o hence_o that_o universality_n and_o prosperity_n though_o they_o be_v give_v for_o two_o note_n of_o a_o true_a church_n by_o the_o papist_n yet_o indeed_o they_o be_v but_o sopisticall_a deceitful_a delusion_n they_o be_v not_o such_o mark_n of_o a_o church_n as_o be_v peculiar_a to_o a_o true_a church_n here_o be_v universality_n all_o the_o world_n wonder_v after_o the_o beast_n and_o here_o be_v prosperity_n all_o the_o world_n adore_v and_o admire_v the_o beast_n who_o be_v like_a unto_o the_o beast_n who_o be_v able_a to_o make_v war_n with_o he_o not_o all_o the_o prince_n of_o the_o world_n so_o that_o here_o be_v external_a prosperity_n for_o so_o they_o call_v it_o here_o be_v both_o these_o

catholic_n church_n the_o scripture_n hold_v it_o forth_o as_o a_o great_a and_o ugly_a and_o monstrous_a beast_n look_v not_o therefore_o at_o these_o as_o any_o good_a mark_n and_o sign_n by_o which_o jesuit_n and_o seminary_n be_v wont_a to_o draw_v to_o deep_a devotion_n to_o the_o catholic_n church_n for_o all_o the_o world_n have_v run_v this_o way_n there_o be_v but_o a_o handful_n a_o

which_o be_v the_o church_n of_o church_n none_o have_v be_v able_a to_o do_v as_o they_o second_o 2._o we_o may_v see_v the_o danger_n of_o this_o admiration_n and_o adoration_n the_o deadly_a and_o desperate_a danger_n of_o adore_v the_o catholic_n visible_a church_n and_o the_o dragon_n it_o be_v the_o cunning_a of_o these_o priest_n and_o jesuit_n to_o draw_v man_n by_o all_o mean_n to_o be_v at_o least_o devote_a to_o the_o catholic_n church_n and_o to_o submit_v their_o power_n thereunto_o for_o they_o say_v there_o be_v no_o union_n with_o christ_n the_o head_n unless_o you_o be_v unite_v to_o the_o visible_a head_n on_o earth_n this_o be_v their_o usual_a plea_n now_o mark_v what_o the_o holy_a ghost_n speak_v in_o this_o text_n he_o do_v say_v that_o all_o the_o worship_n of_o this_o mother_n church_n be_v but_o the_o worship_n of_o the_o dragon_n man_n be_v devout_o addict_v to_o give_v up_o their_o soul_n to_o the_o devil_n when_o they_o give_v up_o themselves_o to_o the_o catholic_a visible_a church_n the_o lord_n profess_v he_o be_v not_o honour_v by_o they_o they_o profess_v honour_n to_o he-saint_n and_o shee-saint_n and_o dead_a saint_n and_o to_o all_o relic_n and_o remnant_n of_o they_o the_o honour_n of_o they_o be_v give_v unto_o the_o devil_n and_o not_o to_o god_n that_o look_v what_o paul_n say_v of_o heathen_a rome_n john_n speak_v of_o christian_n rome_n this_o i_o say_v say_v the_o apostle_n 1_o cor._n 10._o 20._o that_o the_o thing_n which_o the_o gentile_n sacrifice_v they_o sacrifice_v to_o devil_n and_o not_o to_o god_n and_o i_o will_v not_o that_o you_o shall_v have_v fellowship_n with_o devil_n and_o so_o this_o say_v john_n the_o holy_a apostle_n equal_a to_o the_o apostle_n paul_n or_o next_o he_o but_o here_o guide_v equal_o with_o paul_n in_o the_o authentical_a word_n of_o god_n he_o say_v they_o that_o worship_n god_n according_a to_o the_o prescript_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n they_o worship_v the_o devil_n and_o not_o god_n they_o worship_v the_o dragon_n the_o old_a serpent_n so_o that_o it_o be_v not_o so_o light_a a_o matter_n as_o gallant_n at_o court_n and_o great_a king_n apprehend_v they_o will_v be_v reconcile_v to_o their_o mother_n church_n they_o will_v go_v a_o pilgrimage_n that_o be_v devise_v by_o the_o pope_n and_o perform_v duty_n as_o their_o ghostly_a father_n direct_v they_o and_o have_v their_o bead-prayer_n in_o all_o this_o what_o do_v they_o do_v this_o be_v a_o worship_n to_o the_o great_a beast_n but_o this_o be_v the_o issue_n and_o substance_n of_o it_o they_o do_v indeed_o worship_v the_o dragon_n it_o be_v not_o the_o lord_n jesus_n nor_o god_n the_o father_n nor_o the_o bless_a spirit_n that_o be_v thus_o worship_v but_o this_o be_v indeed_o the_o worship_n of_o the_o devil_n three_o 3_o this_o may_v serve_v to_o teach_v we_o to_o bless_v the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o have_v deliver_v we_o from_o this_o admiration_n and_o adoration_n from_o this_o woeful_a captivity_n and_o calamity_n whereto_o our_o father_n have_v be_v enthrall_v all_o those_o of_o they_o who_o name_n be_v not_o write_v in_o the_o lamb_n book_n of_o life_n they_o be_v all_o lead_v this_o way_n and_o it_o be_v a_o marvellous_a deliverance_n that_o god_n have_v wrought_v for_o we_o in_o take_v our_o religion_n from_o universality_n and_o from_o outward_a prosperity_n it_o be_v sometime_o a_o snare_n to_o christian_n this_o kind_n of_o government_n that_o we_o have_v and_o they_o be_v apt_a to_o say_v what_o do_v any_o of_o the_o great_a nation_n of_o the_o world_n for_o worship_n and_o government_n do_v you_o ever_o know_v any_o such_o thing_n authorise_v in_o any_o kingdom_n there_o be_v a_o inward_a principle_n in_o we_o by_o nature_n to_o do_v as_o all_o the_o world_n do_v what_o be_v we_o more_o wise_a than_o they_o it_o be_v a_o great_a temptation_n but_o we_o have_v cause_n to_o bless_v god_n that_o have_v wrought_v deliverance_n for_o we_o but_o what_o if_o all_o the_o world_n do_v worship_v the_o devil_n as_o time_n be_v when_o they_o do_v what_o if_o all_o the_o world_n worship_v the_o beast_n and_o the_o dragon_n that_o give_v power_n to_o the_o beast_n must_v we_o do_v so_o and_o as_o they_o be_v not_o ground_n of_o our_o worship_n so_o they_o be_v fit_a ground_n of_o unfeigned_a thankfulness_n to_o god_n that_o have_v deliver_v we_o from_o that_o religion_n by_o which_o all_o the_o world_n be_v bewitch_v to_o give_v their_o crown_n honour_n body_n and_o state_n to_o the_o devotion_n of_o the_o visible_a catholic_n

what_o i_o say_v it_o have_v be_v a_o very_a rare_a and_o singular_a case_n when_o any_o man_n will_v acknowledge_v a_o particular_a visible_a church_n depend_v on_o no_o power_n but_o independent_a within_o itself_o it_o be_v such_o a_o rarity_n that_o a_o man_n may_v here_o and_o there_o indeed_o find_v it_o in_o time_n of_o persecution_n in_o 3000._o year_n but_o after_o the_o church_n come_v to_o peace_n it_o be_v very_o rare_a to_o hear_v such_o a_o matter_n till_o you_o come_v down_o to_o the_o waldence_n and_o albedence_n and_o those_o poor_a church_n that_o be_v scatter_v in_o the_o

this_o be_v a_o great_a power_n and_o yet_o this_o power_n the_o church_n of_o rome_n have_v the_o harlot_n reign_v over_o kindred_n tongue_n and_o nation_n whereas_o the_o true_a spouse_n of_o

conscience_n be_v never_o so_o corrupt_a as_o in_o corrupt_a nature_n it_o be_v and_o reason_n never_o so_o blind_a as_o in_o corrupt_a nature_n it_o be_v and_o sense_n never_o so_o luxurious_a a_o

if_o it_o shall_v be_v to_o give_v glory_n to_o god_n in_o the_o presence_n of_o a_o particular_a visible_a church_n of_o christ_n institution_n there_o we_o be_v marvellous_a unwilling_a to_o
