of_o the_o law_n their_o wonderful_a act_n be_v record_v in_o scripture_n 12._o beside_o the_o revelation_n they_o declare_v as_o from_o god_n which_o the_o age_n follow_v do_v not_o see_v nor_o hear_v yet_o many_o do_v true_o believe_v and_o do_v true_o belive_o and_o be_v by_o faith_n satisfy_v as_o those_o that_o do_v both_o hear_v and_o see_v 13._o so_o that_o the_o scripture_n record_v be_v a_o record_n of_o spiritual_a and_o heavenly_a thing_n and_o of_o some_o of_o those_o wonderful_a and_o powerful_a act_n of_o moses_n and_o the_o prophet_n and_o the_o righteous_a father_n manifest_v their_o great_a faith_n in_o god_n and_o be_v in_o favour_n with_o god_n 14._o which_o i_o by_o faith_n have_v find_v their_o record_n true_a and_o so_o have_v many_o more_o of_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n find_v their_o record_n and_o revelation_n to_o be_v true_a chap._n ii_o the_o prophet_n make_v a_o rehearsal_n of_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n and_o of_o the_o lord_n christ_n and_o how_o that_o they_o be_v write_v for_o the_o comfort_n of_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n after_o which_o he_o enter_v upon_o the_o three_o record_n and_o show_v the_o cause_n of_o his_o writing_n some_o of_o the_o most_o principal_a act_n of_o the_o witness_n of_o the_o spirit_n under_o this_o three_o record_n 1._o also_o we_o find_v write_v in_o the_o new_a testament_n many_o wonderful_a act_n and_o miracle_n act_v by_o the_o lord_n christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n as_o matthew_n mark_n luke_n and_o john_n do_v declare_v concern_v christ_n that_o if_o all_o the_o thing_n christ_n speak_v and_o act_v he_o do_v be_v write_v the_o world_n will_v not_o contain_v the_o volume_n 2._o that_o be_v the_o verge_n of_o a_o man_n understanding_n can_v not_o retain_v the_o particular_n so_o as_o to_o tell_v it_o to_o his_o friend_n the_o particular_n will_v be_v so_o many_o 3._o so_o likewise_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n that_o book_n have_v little_a else_o in_o it_o but_o wonderful_a act_n wrought_v by_o the_o power_n of_o faith_n in_o the_o apostle_n 4._o and_o these_o thing_n be_v write_v for_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n that_o they_o may_v have_v comfort_n in_o believe_v the_o record_n that_o be_v give_v of_o the_o apostle_n how_o god_n strengthen_v they_o in_o faith_n and_o power_n as_o by_o the_o power_n of_o faith_n to_o work_v miracle_n 5._o because_o they_o be_v choose_v of_o god_n to_o bear_v record_n on_o earth_n to_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n or_o new_a covenant_n 6._o thus_o do_v the_o apostle_n bear_v record_n on_o earth_n to_o the_o blood_n as_o the_o prophet_n do_v bear_v record_n on_o earth_n to_o the_o water_n which_o signify_v the_o law_n of_o moses_n and_o the_o blood_n signify_v the_o gospel_n of_o jesus_n christ_n 7._o the_o scripture_n be_v a_o record_n that_o show_v many_o wonderful_a act_n that_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n do_v when_o on_o earth_n beside_o the_o heavenly_a revelation_n 8._o and_o it_o be_v very_o comfortable_a to_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n true_a beliver_v to_o read_v of_o the_o act_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o of_o the_o apostle_n as_o it_o be_v of_o their_o doctrine_n revelation_n prophecy_n interpretation_n or_o epistle_n 9_o these_o thing_n i_o have_v experience_n of_o and_o see_v it_o have_v be_v the_o practice_n of_o some_o of_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n to_o leave_v a_o record_n behind_o they_o for_o after_o age_n to_o peruse_v of_o some_o of_o the_o most_o remarkable_a act_n do_v by_o they_o when_o they_o be_v upon_o earth_n as_o a_o remarkable_a remembrance_n to_o their_o prophecy_n and_o epistle_n 10._o so_o likewise_o i_o be_v one_o of_o the_o two_o last_o prophet_n and_o witness_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v the_o three_o and_o last_o record_n from_o god_n on_o earth_n 11._o i_o think_v it_o convenient_a and_o expedient_a to_o leave_v some_o record_n on_o earth_n behind_o i_o of_o some_o of_o the_o most_o remarkable_a act_n and_o passage_n that_o have_v be_v do_v and_o act_v by_o we_o and_o to_o we_o the_o witness_n of_o the_o spirit_n since_o we_o be_v choose_v of_o god_n in_o the_o year_n 1651._o 12._o that_o i_o may_v leave_v it_o as_o a_o legasy_a to_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n after_o i_o who_o shall_v happen_v to_o read_v and_o believe_v those_o write_n of_o we_o after_o i_o be_o go_v 13._o they_o may_v know_v by_o the_o doctrine_n therein_o declare_v who_o and_o what_o we_o be_v and_o what_o god_n we_o believe_v in_o 14._o also_o i_o think_v it_o necessary_a to_o write_v of_o those_o act_n myself_o rather_o than_o any_o other_o be_v act_v in_o my_o sight_n and_o perfect_a knowledge_n as_o other_o profit_n have_v do_v before_o i_o as_o moses_n and_o other_o chap._n iii_o of_o the_o birth_n parentage_n and_o trade_n of_o the_o two_o witness_n and_o how_o the_o profit_v nature_n lead_v they_o forth_o to_o all_o sobriety_n hate_v drunkeness_n and_o of_o their_o incline_n to_o the_o principle_n of_o those_o call_v puritan_n and_o of_o their_o be_v persuade_v from_o judge_a case_n of_o conscience_n before_o they_o new_a the_o truth_n 1._o but_o before_o i_o write_v of_o the_o act_n i_o shall_v give_v the_o reader_n a_o little_a to_o understand_v what_o we_o be_v before_o god_n do_v choose_v we_o two_o to_o be_v his_o two_o last_o prophet_n and_o witness_n of_o the_o spirit_n 2._o and_o of_o some_o experince_n i_o have_v and_o work_v within_o i_o before_o i_o be_v choose_v of_o god_n little_o expect_v god_n will_v have_v choose_v i_o for_o such_o a_o great_a
