5 Its true in the Predictions and Prophesies. The predictions of the Israelties distress in Egypt four hundred years, and deliverance thence; of their possessing Canaan, of Cyrus birth, of the Jews redemption out of the Babylonish captivity, of the four Monarchies, and of Christs coming in the flesh, his mean birth, afflicted life, death, burial, ascension, are all already accomplished: Those Prophesies in Daniel and Revelation concerning the future estate of the Church, the ruin of Pope and Turk, the vocation of the Jews, and the glorious and pure condition of the people of God in the latter days, shall all to a tittle be fulfilled. Its observable therefore that some predictions that were or are future are set down in the present tense, To us a son is born; Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen; to assure us that they shall be as certainly fulfilled as if they were fulfilled already, Isa. 9. 6. Rev. 18.
