the_o old_a apostate_n minister_n to_o the_o devil_n and_o some_o of_o they_o count_v we_o their_o enemy_n for_o the_o truth_n sake_n and_o send_v we_o word_n they_o will_v protest_v against_o we_o and_o so_o we_o justify_v our_o lord_n in_o break_v they_o at_o airds_n moss_n we_o justify_v the_o lord_n likewise_o in_o take_v away_o that_o they_o call_v field-preaching_n or_o mock_n because_o they_o be_v nothing_o but_o rebellion_n against_o the_o high_a lord_n as_o we_o find_v now_o when_o our_o lord_n be_v come_v to_o the_o cross_n there_o be_v neither_o minister_n nor_o people_n to_o bide_v by_o he_o of_o the_o many_o thousand_o have_v flock_v to_o the_o thing_n they_o call_v preach_n or_o mock_n and_o therefore_o now_o all_o be_v find_v void_a of_o save_a grace_n and_o so_o we_o
