villainy_n in_o israel_n and_o have_v commit_v adultery_n with_o their_o neighbour_n wife_n and_o have_v speak_v lie_v word_n in_o my_o name_n which_o i_o have_v not_o command_v they_o even_o i_o know_v and_o be_o a_o witness_n say_v the_o lord_n jer._n 29.23_o by_o this_o we_o see_v that_o god_n the_o father_n see_v our_o sin_n and_o be_v a_o witness_n but_o because_o he_o will_v not_o be_v a_o witness_n in_o his_o own_o cause_n he_o will_v have_v two_o sufficient_a witness_n beside_o himself_o to_o wit_n christ_n and_o conscience_n both_o very_a true_a the_o devil_n will_v willing_o be_v a_o witness_n against_o man_n as_o a_o evil_a spirit_n that_o know_v much_o by_o man_n but_o do_v not_o know_v so_o much_o as_o the_o spirit_n of_o man_n which_o be_v in_o he_o and_o therefore_o not_o a_o sufficient_a witness_n but_o if_o that_o evil_a spirit_n do_v know_v as_o much_o by_o man_n as_o man_n own_o evil_a spirit_n which_o be_v in_o he_o yet_o be_v corrupt_a he_o will_v prove_v a_o false_a witness_n against_o man_n a_o knight_n of_o the_o post_n and_o swear_v any_o thing_n against_o man_n to_o bring_v as_o great_a misery_n upon_o he_o as_o be_v upon_o himself_o if_o he_o may_v be_v admit_v for_o a_o witness_n such_o be_v his_o devilish_a hatred_n and_o malice_n to_o all_o being_n better_o than_o his_o own_o but_o therefore_o god_n will_v not_o admit_v of_o he_o as_o a_o witness_n for_o or_o against_o a_o man_n two_o true_a witness_n will_v god_n have_v one_o without_o a_o man_n and_o another_o within_o he_o one_o in_o heaven_n and_o another_o in_o earth_n to_o wit_n christ_n and_o conscience_n behold_v i_o have_v give_v he_o for_o a_o witness_n to_o the_o people_n say_v god_n the_o father_n of_o christ_n isa_n 55.4_o and_o this_o witness_n be_v in_o heaven_n say_v job_n behold_v my_o witness_n be_v in_o heaven_n job_n 16.19_o not_o so_o in_o heaven_n that_o he_o be_v not_o also_o in_o earth_n or_o as_o if_o he_o be_v ignorant_a of_o any_o thing_n do_v in_o earth_n for_o than_o he_o can_v not_o be_v a_o sufficient_a witness_n job_n speak_v of_o christ_n according_a to_o his_o special_a place_n of_o residence_n and_o that_o be_v in_o heaven_n but_o christ_n have_v a_o country_n house_n here_o below_o in_o our_o heart_n where_o he_o have_v one_o abide_v continual_o that_o be_v equal_a to_o himself_o that_o tell_v he_o all_o to_o wit_n his_o spirit_n so_o that_o christ_n be_v as_o competent_a a_o witness_n as_o conscience_n that_o sit_v as_o register_n still_o in_o the_o heart_n and_o never_o stir_v out_o of_o his_o place_n these_o two_o witness_n do_v as_o that_o man_n be_v command_v to_o do_v which_o have_v a_o sheep_n commit_v to_o his_o trust_n and_o the_o sheep_n tear_v in_o piece_n by_o wild_a beast_n he_o be_v to_o bring_v

conscience_n bring_v before_o god_n &_o the_o soul_n those_o precept_n which_o be_v by_o god_n commit_v to_o man_n to_o be_v keep_v and_o which_o he_o have_v suffer_v his_o unruly_a heart_n to_o break_v to_o piece_n my_o meaning_n be_v so_o lively_o do_v these_o two_o witness_n set_v before_o the_o sinner_n the_o breach_n of_o every_o precept_n according_a to_o every_o circumstance_n as_o ever_o any_o party_n under_o the_o law_n can_v set_v before_o the_o owner_n the_o tear_v in_o piece_n of_o his_o cattle_n by_o the_o limb_n and_o piece_n thereof_o and_o this_o be_v do_v divine_a sentence_n be_v give_v and_o the_o soul_n must_v needs_o be_v silent_a be_v so_o legal_o handle_v and_o angel_n and_o saint_n be_v force_v to_o break_v forth_o and_o say_v rightéous_a be_v thou_o o_o god_n in_o all_o thy_o way_n and_o holy_a in_o all_o thy_o work_n last_o god_n have_v give_v this_o power_n to_o conscience_n to_o give_v testimony_n concern_v man_n simplicity_n or_o hypocrisy_n that_o so_o god_n at_o the_o great_a day_n may_v dispatch_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o weighty_a business_n speedy_o and_o i_o will_v come_v near_o to_o you_o to_o judgement_n and_o i_o will_v be_v a_o
