Thus God in justice (for contempt of his mercy) admits a stronger delusion of the Devil: not to make them two-fold more the children of hell. Math. 23, 15. as Proselytes; but seven fold as Devils. That 1their bewitched and infatuated souls shall do service to him that murders them: as Ahaz did sacrifice to the Gods of Damascus that smote him. 2 Chron. 228. As our treacherous and fugitive Seminaries that adore the Babylonish Beast, who profusely carouseth up their blood that serve him: and whiles he builds up the Tower of his universal Monarchy, to overlook and command the Christian world, he sets them to cement and mortar the walls with their own bloods.
