Apocalyptical mysteries, touching the two witnesses, the seven vials, and the two kingdoms, to…

But these things are not yet done, and therefore none of the Seven Vials are yet poured out. Let Christians consider, Are the Witnesses slain, before their Testimony be finished?

(that is, to ⟨p. 38⟩an Heavenly State and Dignity) and have their Enemies been enlightened to behold them? as is prophesied they shall, Verse 11, 12. Again, Hath the Seventh Angel sounded his Seventh Trumpet? as is prophesied Verse 15. which Angel must Sound his Seventh Trumpet before this Wrath come, Verse 18. I offer these three Reasons to the serious Consideration of Christians, why the Seventh Angel hath not Sounded his Seventh Trumpet, Viz. 1. The Mystery of God is not finished, which must be done when the Seventh Angel begins to Sound his Trumpet, Chap. 10.6, 7. 2. The Second Woe is not Past until the Witnesses and Warriors be raised and ascended, which must be done before the Seventh Angel Sound his Trumpet, Chap. 11.11, 12, 14, 15. 3.
