he_o have_v be_v reign_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o his_o enemy_n not_o only_o after_o his_o come_n in_o our_o flesh_n but_o before_o the_o time_n of_o the_o patriarck_n and_o prophet_n and_o ever_o be_v know_v to_o the_o subject_n of_o his_o kingdom_n the_o three_o be_v that_o his_o kingdom_n have_v be_v sometime_o more_o obscure_a and_o under_o a_o cloud_n as_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o old_a

for_o the_o present_a we_o may_v behold_v christ_n reign_v in_o his_o spiritual_a kingdom_n and_o to_o take_v heed_n that_o the_o expectation_n of_o that_o which_o be_v future_a be_v not_o a_o

the_o quality_n then_o of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n negative_o be_v this_o that_o his_o kingdom_n be_v not_o of_o this_o world_n it_o be_v not_o a_o earthly_a or_o worldly_a kingdom_n and_o

cause_n of_o the_o so_o long_a continuance_n of_o the_o sect_n of_o mahomet_n and_o conceive_v that_o the_o detestation_n of_o idolatry_n and_o of_o persecution_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v two_o

that_o he_o who_o call_v himself_o the_o servant_n of_o servant_n do_v make_v himself_o the_o king_n of_o king_n and_o lord_n of_o lord_n and_o yet_o the_o king_n and_o lord_n of_o the_o earth_n do_v
