judgement_n depend_v that_o no_o one_o part_n off_o the_o world_n no_o one_o city_n no_o one_o the_o jest_n town_n receive_v the_o gospel_n whole_o in_o the_o apostle_n time_n if_o i_o shall_v suffer_v you_o to_o go_v away_o with_o this_o great_a and_o ungrounded_a say_v yet_o thereby_o can_v not_o be_v conclude_v that_o there_o be_v more_o christian_n now_o in_o a_o part_n off_o europe_n then_o be_v throwghoute_n the_o world_n in_o the_o apostle_n time_n but_o i_o require_v proof_n of_o that_o you_o set_v down_o so_o precise_o not_o only_o because_o i_o think_v you_o can_v not_o warrant_v it_o by_o any_o but_o also_o because_o i_o have_v somewhat_o to_o except_o against_o 8._o it_o for_o it_o may_v appear_v that_o samaria_n do_v whole_o receive_v the_o gospel_n for_o beside_o that_o it_o be_v recite_v that_o with_o one_o accord_n the_o multitude_n give_v heed_n unto_o that_o philipp_n say_v s._n luke_n declare_v in_o the_o 10._o and_o 11._o verse_n that_o all_o that_o be_v in_o samaria_n from_o the_o little_a to_o the_o great_a be_v bewitch_v with_o the_o inchaunmente_n off_o simon_n add_v in_o the_o 12._o verse_n that_o when_o they_o believe_v they_o be_v baptize_v this_o have_a relation_n unto_o that_o which_o go_v before_o which_o be_v that_o all_o be_v abuse_v by_o the_o magycian_n it_o follow_v that_o the_o whole_a city_n receive_v the_o gospel_n whereunto_o may_v be_v refer_v 9_o the_o emulation_n between_o jerusalem_n and_o samaria_n whereby_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o the_o gospel_n thrust_v out_o off_o jerusalem_n be_v both_o easy_o and_o more_o general_o receive_v in_o samaria_n likewise_o that_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o 13._o verse_n that_o even_o simon_n himself_o off_o all_o 8_o other_o most_o untoward_a believe_v and_o that_o in_o the_o 14._o ver_fw-la that_o samaria_n have_v receive_v the_o word_n off_o god_n and_o not_o many_o in_o samaria_n 4._o as_z he_o speak_v off_o other_o place_n where_o the_o gospel_n be_v but_o in_o part_n receive_v if_o one_o except_o that_o it_o be_v not_o like_o every_o singular_a person_n turn_v at_o the_o preach_v off_o philip_n i_o answer_v that_o in_o such_o straight_a signification_n of_o all_o there_o shall_v be_v at_o this_o day_n find_v no_o kingdom_n and_o almost_o no_o city_n which_o have_v receive_v the_o gospel_n but_o if_o the_o whole_a profession_n off_o the_o gospel_n be_v esteem_v off_o that_o which_o be_v do_v by_o the_o body_n and_o state_n of_o the_o city_n it_o seem_v that_o the_o word_n off_o saint_n luke_n will_v bear_v out_o a_o whole_a and_o general_a profession_n at_o the_o jest_n off_o the_o most_o part_n which_o you_o deny_v and_o if_o it_o be_v true_a that_o euseb_n write_v we_o have_v a_o manifest_a testimony_n off_o the_o whole_a receive_n off_o the_o gospel_n in_o the_o ca._n city_n off_o the_o edissen_v which_o be_v win_v unto_o the_o gospel_n by_o the_o preach_a off_o thaddeus_n send_v to_o king_n agbarus_n by_o thomas_n the_o apostell_n off_o who_o it_o be_v write_v that_o he_o bring_v all_o to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o that_o the_o whole_a city_n of_o the_o edissen_v have_v at_o that_o time_n give_v her_o name_n unto_o the_o profession_n off_o christ_n so_o continue_v unto_o the_o time_n wherein_o eusebius_n write_v where_o you_o will_v seem_v to_o say_v some_o great_a matter_n when_o you_o add_v not_o at_o jerusalem_n it_o be_v asmuch_o as_o if_o you_o shall_v say_v that_z no_o town_n receive_v the_o gospel_n because_o jerusalem_n the_o most_o murder_v town_n in_o the_o whole_a world_n do_v not_o who_o rebellion_n and_o for_o it_o destruction_n be_v foretell_v off_o our_o sau._n christe_o must_v needs_o follow_v for_o touch_v the_o apostle_n abide_v there_o it_o be_v not_o for_o the_o hope_n off_o any_o plentiful_a harvest_n to_o be_v reap_v in_o that_o city_n but_o partly_o for_o that_o the_o jew_n unto_o who_o they_o be_v send_v to_o preach_v first_o have_v their_o concourse_n thither_o from_o all_o corner_n of_o the_o world_n partly_o to_o fulfil_v the_o prophesy_v off_o the_o sound_n of_o the_o gospel_n from_o zion_n into_o all_o part_n of_o the_o world_n and_o three_o to_o prepare_v a_o ready_a passage_n for_o his_o heavy_a judgement_n to_o 23._o come_v upon_o that_o city_n that_o also_o also_o which_o you_o add_v that_o the_o ten_o part_n off_o the_o inhabitans_fw-la off_o ephesus_n antioch_n and_o rome_n be_v not_o christian_n in_o the_o apostle_n time_n be_v only_o say_a and_o it_o be_v much_o for_o you_o to_o speak_v so_o large_o off_o the_o

all_o likelihood_n show_v that_o it_o be_v untrue_a especial_o off_o the_o two_o first_o of_o antioch_n we_o read_v that_o when_o they_o which_o be_v scatter_v by_o persecution_n move_v in_o 21._o jerusalem_n preach_v there_o the_o hand_n off_o the_o lord_n be_v with_o they_o and_o a_o great_a number_n believe_v turn_v unto_o the_o lord_n and_o in_o the_o 24._o verse_n it_o be_v say_v that_o

also_o it_o be_v write_v that_o the_o fruit_n off_o s._n paul_n preach_v there_o by_o the_o space_n of_o two_o year_n be_v so_o great_a that_o the_o book_n off_o those_o which_o have_v exercise_v
