Concerning Antichrist.

Though there were many Antichrists in the Apo∣stles time, 1 John 2.18. yet there was one in a more special manner to come after those days, who is called the Antichrist, 1 Iohn 2.22. the man of sin, 2 Thes. 2.3. the Beast, the false Prophet, and the Destroyer, Rev. 13. c. 9.11.

2. This Antichrist is one that sits in the Temple of God, assuming and exercising power above those that are called Gods (above Magistrates) 2 Thes. 2. who beareth the woman or the Harlot, the City Rome which was built upon seaven hills, Rev. 17.3.9.18. who, under pretence of being for Christ, doth indeed fight against him, and destroy his true Worship, Rev. 13.7.11. who deceive the world by his miracles and lying wonders Rev, 13.13, 14. 2 Thes. 2.9. whose reign was to begin at the fall of the Roman Empire, 2 Thes. 1.6, 7. where together with him True Kings were to arise out of that state, and is to give their power to him. Rev. 17.12, 13. All which since it is exactly, faithfully and litterally agree to the Pope of Rome, we may say concerning him, Is this the Antichrist that is to come or may we look for another.
