¶ What shall be done when the thousand years are expired, of the world deceived, of war and grievous persecution of the godly, and of the everlasting pain of the wicked. The .lxxxix. Sermon.
¶ What shall be done when the thousande yeres are expired, of the worlde deceaued, of warre and greuous persecution of the godly, and of the euerlasting payne of the wicked. The .lxxxix. Sermon.
AND when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, and shall go out to deceive the people, which are in the four quarters of the Earth, Gog and Magog to gather them together to battle, whose number is as the sand of the Sea. And they went upon the plain of the earth, and compassed the tents of the saints about, and the beloved city. And fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them. And the Devil that deceived them was caste into a lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet were and shall be tormented day and night for evermore.
AND when the thousande yeares are expired, Sathā shal be lowsed out of his pryson, and shall go out to deceaue the people, whiche are in the foure quarters of ye Earth, Gog and Magog to gather them together to battaile, whose nombre is as the sande of the Sea. And they wente vpon the playne of the earth, and cōpassed the tentes of the sainctes aboute, and the beloued citie. And fire came downe from God out of heauē, and deuoured them. And the Deuil that deceaued thē was caste into a lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet were and shal be tormented daye and night for euermore.
He declareth hereby,1 what shall happen after those thousand years. And he sayeth chiefly two things, that the devil shall be loosed out of his prison, that he may deceive the people in the world, and may assemble Gog and Magog unto battle. To the which again he annexeth other two, a most cruel persecution of the church, and pain of the wicked, and everlasting damnation of the devil and his members.
