hereafter_o he_o exclude_v judas_n because_o the_o lord_n know_v who_o be_v elect_v and_o who_o be_v reprobate_a then_o again_o when_o he_o pray_v for_o the_o elect_n he_o pray_v not_o confusedlie_o

lord_n take_v his_o own_o out_o of_o this_o miserable_a world_n to_o dwell_v with_o himself_o in_o joy_n and_o felicity_n the_o other_o remedy_n against_o persecution_n be_v when_o the_o lord_n let_v his_o own_o still_o fight_v on_o in_o a_o battle_n and_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n keep_v they_o wonderful_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o persecution_n so_o that_o the_o world_n will_v be_v compel_v to_o wonder_v that_o a_o man_n or_o a_o woman_n who_o feel_v the_o lord_n presence_n will_v so_o triumph_v in_o affliction_n all_o this_o world_n have_v no_o power_n to_o take_v their_o life_n so_o long_o as_o the_o lord_n have_v his_o work_n in_o their_o hand_n all_o the_o tyrant_n under_o the_o heaven_n have_v no_o power_n to_o harm_v they_o and_o namely_o a_o preacher_n till_o he_o end_v his_o work_n for_o the_o which_o the_o lord_n set_v he_o in_o the_o world_n all_o the_o tyrant_n in_o the_o earth_n can_v take_v his_o life_n from_o he_o no_o they_o can_v touch_v the_o least_o hair_n of_o his_o head_n for_o they_o be_v number_v yea_o rather_o ere_o he_o get_v any_o harm_n the_o lord_n will_v send_v his_o angel_n out_o of_o heaven_n as_o he_o send_v he_o to_o peter_n and_o pull_v he_o out_o of_o the_o throat_n of_o death_n now_o brethren_n look_v to_o the_o order_n which_o the_o lord_n use_v in_o these_o remedy_n he_o will_v not_o incontinent_a take_v his_o own_o out_o of_o the_o
