With all power, and signs, and lying wonders, and in all deceivableness of unrighteousness. He shall need to be of great power and force that shall encounter with God. Therefore the Apostle saith, he shall come with miracles ⟨p. 343⟩and devises of Satan. Christ foretold, that false Christs shall rise, and false Prophets, and 1shall show signs and wonders, to deceive, if it were possible, the very elect. Again he saith: Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, 2have we not in thy name prophesied? and by thy name cast out Devils? and by thy name done many great works? and then will I profess to them, I never knew you, depart from me ye that work iniquity. These things shall Satan bring to pass under my name.
