There were seven Devils in Mary Magda• too many for her to get from under the p• of; but when the time was come, that • come was to be fulfilled upon her, they • place; fly from her; and she comes (in•e• to Jesus Christ: According as it is written, • that the Father giveth me, shall come to me.
The Man that was possessed with a Legion, •ark 5. was too much by them captivated, for •m, by Humane Force, to come; yea, had he •d (to boot) all the Men under Heaven to •p him; had he that said, he shall come, with••ld his mighty Power: But when this Promise was to be fulfilled upon him, then he comes; •r could all their power hinder him from •o•ng. It was also this Shall come that preser••d him from Death, when by these evil Spi• he was hurled hither and thither; •d it was by the virtue of Shall come, that at • he was set at Liberty from them, & enabled deed) to come to Christ. All that the Father •eth me shall come to me.
