christ_n to_o spread_v their_o error_n other_o profess_a christ_n but_o in_o half_a part_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n while_o they_o have_v place_n amongst_o those_o of_o the_o household_n they_o have_v the_o more_fw-it ability_n to_o do_v harm_n especial_o satan_n himself_o take_v occasion_n to_o disquyet_v the_o church_n in_o christ_n himself_o for_o he_o be_v the_o stone_n of_o offence_n whereat_o all_o must_v needs_o stumble_v which_o hold_v not_o the_o plain_a way_n as_o god_n have_v set_v forth_o the_o same_o unto_o us._n further_o this_o whole_a reason_n of_o the_o apostle_n stand_v on_o three_o member_n for_o first_o he_o show_v the_o evil_a whence_o danger_n come_v to_o the_o faithful_a and_o by_o this_o mean_v he_o exhort_v they_o to_o take_v heed_n he_o set_v down_o the_o manner_n of_o heed_n take_v that_o they_o judge_v between_o spirit_n and_o this_o be_v the_o second_o member_n at_o the_o last_o he_o show_v one_o special_a from_o whence_o be_v their_o great_a peril_n he_o forbid_v therefore_o to_o hear_v they_o which_o deny_v that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v manifest_v in_o the_o flesh_n now_o let_v we_o handle_v every_o one_o in_o order_n and_o albeit_o this_o reason_n follow_v in_o the_o text_n that_o many_o false_a prophet_n have_v go_v out_o into_o the_o world_n yet_o it_o shall_v be_v good_a to_o begin_v there_o for_o this_o sentence_n contain_v a_o profitable_a admonion_n because_o if_o even_o at_o this_o time_n satan_n have_v fill_v many_o which_o shall_v spread_v their_o falsehood_n under_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n the_o like_a example_n ought_v not_o to_o discourage_v we_o at_o this_o day_n for_o this_o be_v the_o perpetual_a state_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o satan_n busy_o go_v about_o to_o infect_v and_o to_o corrupt_v the_o purity_n thereof_o by_o diverse_a error_n this_o our_o age_n have_v bring_v forth_o certain_a horrible_a monster_n of_o sect_n by_o occasion_n whereof_o many_o stand_v amaze_v &_o not_o know_v whether_o to_o turn_v they_o do_v cast_v away_o all_o care_n of_o godliness_n for_o they_o find_v not_o any_o more_o speedy_a way_n to_o rid_v themselves_o from_o the_o danger_n of_o error_n that_o be_v altogether_o foolish_a for_o in_o fly_v from_o the_o light_n of_o the_o truth_n they_o cast_v themselves_o willing_o into_o the_o dungeon_n of_o error_n wherefore_o let_v this_o cleave_v fast_o in_o our_o mind_n that_o there_o have_v be_v false_a prophet_n immediate_o since_o the_o gospel_n have_v begin_v to_o be_v publish_v and_o let_v this_o doctrine_n also_o arm_v we_o against_o that_o offence_n the_o auncientnesse_n of_o error_n hold_v the_o most_o as_o if_o it_o be_v so_o bind_v that_o they_o dare_v not_o go_v out_o thence_o but_o john_n show_v here_o the_o deadly_a danger_n of_o the_o church_n that_o if_o even_o then_o deceiver_n be_v mix_v with_o the_o apostle_n and_o other_o faithful_a teacher_n what_o marvel_n be_v it_o if_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n long_o ago_o be_v oppress_v many_o corruption_n be_v spread_v abroad_o in_o the_o world_n there_o be_v therefore_o no_o cause_n why_o antiquity_n shall_v hinder_v we_o that_o we_o shall_v the_o less_o free_o discern_v the_o truth_n from_o falsehood_n 1_o believe_v not_o every_o spirit_n many_o as_o be_v say_v when_o the_o church_n be_v vex_v with_o discord_n and_o contention_n be_v amaze_v depart_v from_o the_o gospel_n but_o the_o spirit_n prescribe_v a_o far_a other_o remedy_n that_o be_v that_o the_o faithful_a receive_v not_o any_o doctrine_n without_o choice_n we_o must_v therefore_o take_v heed_n least_o be_v offend_v with_o variety_n of_o opinion_n we_o renounce_v the_o teacher_n together_o with_o the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o let_v this_o moderation_n suffice_v that_o all_o be_v not_o to_o be_v hear_v a_o like_a the_o name_n of_o the_o spirit_n i_o take_v to_o be_v by_o a_o metonimia_fw-la for_o he_o that_o boast_v that_o he_o be_v endue_v with_o the_o gift_n of_o the_o spirit_n to_o undertake_v the_o office_n of_o a_o prophet_n for_o when_o it_o be_v grant_v to_o no_o private_a man_n that_o he_o speak_v in_o his_o name_n nor_o be_v there_o credit_n to_o be_v give_v to_o they_o that_o speak_v but_o so_o far_o as_o they_o be_v the_o instrument_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o more_o authority_n the_o prophet_n shall_v have_v god_n adorn_v they_o with_o this_o title_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v take_v they_o out_o of_o the_o common_a sort_n of_o man_n they_o therefore_o be_v call_v spirit_n which_o only_o give_v their_o tongue_n to_o the_o oracle_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v after_o a_o sort_n bear_v the_o person_n of_o his_o ministry_n they_o set_v forth_o nothing_o of_o their_o own_o devise_v nor_o come_v they_o forth_o in_o their_o own_o name_n and_o héeretoo_o belong_v so_o honourable_a a_o title_n lest_o any_o thing_n may_v fail_v of_o the_o reverence_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n for_o the_o contempt_n of_o the_o minister_n for_o god_n always_o will_v have_v his_o word_n receive_v from_o the_o mouth_n of_o man_n no_o other_o way_n then_o if_o he_o himself_o have_v plain_o appear_v from_o heaven_n here_o satan_n have_v creep_v in_o as_o a_o mean_a and_o when_o he_o feign_v in_o false_a teacher_n to_o adulterate_a the_o word_n of_o god_n also_o give_v they_o a_o name_n under_o which_o they_o may_v the_o better_o deceive_v so_o the_o false_a prophet_n use_v always_o proud_o and_o with_o full_a mouth_n to_o arrogate_v to_o themselves_o whatsoever_o honour_n god_n have_v bestow_v upon_o his_o servant_n and_o the_o apostle_n seem_v to_o have_v use_v this_o name_n lest_o they_o may_v deceive_v we_o with_o their_o false_a pretence_n which_o falslye_o pretend_v the_o name_n of_o god_n even_o as_o we_o see_v at_o this_o day_n very_o many_o to_o be_v amaze_v with_o the_o bare_a name_n of_o the_o church_n that_o they_o have_v rather_o avow_v themselves_o into_o the_o eternal_a destruction_n of_o the_o pope_n then_o to_o take_v from_o he_o any_o or_o the_o least_o part_n of_o authority_n therefore_o this_o grant_v be_v to_o be_v note_v for_o the_o apostle_n can_v have_v say_v that_o every_o one_o be_v not_o to_o be_v

and_o trifle_a except_o they_o do_v indeed_o perform_v what_o they_o pretend_v and_o that_o they_o be_v to_o be_v account_v as_o fool_n who_o be_v amaze_v at_o the_o very_a noise_n of_o a_o
