Antichrist stormed, or, Mystery Babylon the great whore, and great city, proved to be the present Church of Rome wherein all objections are fully answered : to which is added, the time of the end, or a clear explanation of Scripture prophecies, with the judgment of divers learned men concerning the final ruin of the Romish Church, that it will be in this present age : together with an account of the two witnesses, who they are, with their killing, resurrection & ascension : also an examination and confutation of what Mr. Jurieu hath lately written concerning the effusion of the vials ... : likewise a brief review of D.

The Mystical Numbers in Daniel and the Revelations, calculated by the H. Scriptures only, without the help of Humane History.
By a worthy Minister of the Gospel.
GOD having given the Scriptures to his Church 2 Tim. 3. 16. for her use and benefit here on Earth; so the Times & Numbers (part thereof) have, are and will be of use to her: Therefore the Angel Dan. 10. 21. (for the opening the Vision, and the confirmation of his Faith, in the Will of God revealed therein, v. 14. concerning his Church, and what should befall her for times to come here on Earth) tells him that he would show him what was noted in the Scriptures of truth. And although this part of the Word, hath been most hard to be understood; yet (besides that common advantage to our Faith, that the times are set by God, not only in his own Eternal purpose, but his revealed Will; which is a good Foundation of Faith to believe and expect accordingly) the more particular knowledge of them as truly opened, must be of special use and help to our Faith, both to prepare for suffering, and expect deliverance. With what diligence then should we with unbiased minds make our applications to him that is the Revealer of secrets: An Essay towards which followeth.
