For the remnant of Edom shall inherit with Israel, & Papists with us: as many as shall seek him, whose name is called 1upon them. Whi•h God grant they may do by faith in his mercy, that Papists may live, and papistry may ⟨p. 34⟩die. But I speak of all who stubbornly persist in the Popish heresies. In whom shall be fulfilled the Apostles prophecy touching the man of sin: the Lord shall consume them with the breath of his mouth. And so, that 2which is written of Edom by the Prophet, may be said by us to the Romish Antichrist: If thieves had come unto thee, if robbers by night (how art thou destroyed?) would they not have stolen that which were enough for them? If Grape gatherers had come unto thee, would they not have left some grapes? How are the things of Antichrist sought out, his secret things are searched?
