Some would have Antichrist down, yea, they would have him down root and branch, but there's no such way for his total and final overthrow, as the Preaching of Christ; for the more the glory, fullness, perfection, and excellency of Christ is discovered, the more the horrid vileness, and matchless wickedness of the man of sin will be discovered ⟨p. 294⟩and abhorred, &c. 2 Thess. 2. 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, 10. And then 1shall that wicked one be revealed. The Greek word (Anomos) properly signifies a lawless, yokeless, masterless Monster, one that holdeth himself subject to no Law.
