The
Apostasy
of the Latter Times.
In which,
(according to divine prediction) the world should wonder after the Beast, the
Mystery of Iniquity should so far prevail over the Mystery of Godliness,
whorish Babylon over the virgin-Church of Christ; as that the visible glory of
the True Church should be much
clouded, the true unstained Christian
Faith corrupted,
the purity of true worship polluted.
OR,
THE GENTILES’
THEOLOGY
OF DEMONS, i.e.
inferior divine powers:
Supposed to be
mediators between God and man:
Revived in the
Latter Times amongst Christians,
in worshipping of Angels, deifying
and invocating of
Saints, adoring and
templing of relics, bowing
down to images, worshipping of
crosses, &c.
All which, together
with
A true discovery of
the nature, original, progress, of the
great, fatal, and solemn apostasy, are
cleared.
