245 10 $aLingva Testivm: Wherein Monarchy Is Proved, 1. To be Jure Divino. 2. To be successive in the Church (except in time of a Nationall desertion) from Adam untill Christ. 3. That Monarchy is the absolute true Government under the Gospel. 4. That immediately after extraordinary Gifts in the Church ceased, God raised up a Monarch for to defend the Church. 5. That Christian Monarchs are one of the witnesses spoken of Rev. II. 6. That England is the place from whence God fetched the first witness of this kind. 7. England was the place whither the Witnesses, (viz. godly Magistracy and Ministry) never drove by Antichrist. Where is Proved, First, that there hath been a visible Magistracy, (though in sackcloth), these 1260 yeares in England. Secondly, That this Magistracy in all Ages (since Antichrists being visible( hath witnessed for Christ against Antichrist. Thirdly, That the late King who was cut off with the Axe, was the lawfull successor of Gods witnesses, who for these 1260. yeares have been Witnes- ses in Sackcloth for Christ against Antichrist, whereby t'is evident that he is the slaid Witnesse that finished his Testimony. Fourthly, That his Son the K. of Scotland who is the Witnesse expected 3. years and an half after the slaying of (the Witnesses to rise again) is by an unquestionable title Emperour of Rome, and that Prince expected to be the ruine of the Antichristian Monarchy of Rome. Against these things are proved that the time of the calling of the Jews, the fall of Antichrist, and the ruine of the Beast of the Earth is at hand. Wherein you have the hard places of Mat.24, and Rev.17 ex- plained with severall other hard Texts: Together with a descrip- tion of the last Enemies which slay the Witnesses, where- by tis evident that England is the place where the Witnesses are slain, and no place else.
