commission_n of_o the_o gospel_n defy_v the_o live_a jesus_n and_o the_o worship_n set_v up_o by_o his_o apostle_n and_o in_o this_o regard_n this_o babylon_n john_n speak_v of_o may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o spiritual_a babylon_n who_o make_v all_o the_o nation_n of_o the_o earth_n to_o drink_v of_o the_o wine_n of_o the_o wrath_n of_o her_o fornication_n and_o as_o certain_a as_o the_o other_o babylon_n be_v destroy_v with_o a_o perpetual_a destruction_n when_o the_o seventy_o year_n be_v accomplish_v so_o will_v this_o babylon_n aforesaid_a be_v destroy_v with_o a_o eternal_a destruction_n when_o the_o time_n appoint_v of_o god_n be_v accomplish_v and_o as_o the_o jew_n nation_n be_v under_o babylon_n yoke_n so_o be_v the_o saint_n in_o the_o primitive_a time_n or_o in_o the_o commission_n of_o the_o gospel_n under_o the_o yoke_n of_o persecution_n of_o this_o spiritual_a babylon_n and_o this_o spiritual_a babylon_n who_o make_v all_o nation_n drink_v with_o spiritual_a fornication_n in_o worship_v of_o idol_n and_o image_n as_o aforesaid_a be_v that_o great_a city_n babylon_n be_v call_v a_o great_a city_n because_o she_o make_v all_o nation_n to_o become_v idolatrous_a for_o when_o a_o man_n do_v bow_v down_o and_o submit_v to_o worship_v any_o idol_n image_n or_o form_n of_o worship_n that_o be_v false_a it_o not_o be_v set_v up_o by_o command_n from_o god_n he_o may_v be_v say_v to_o drink_v of_o the_o cup_n of_o spiritual_a fornication_n more_o may_v be_v say_v of_o this_o thing_n but_o i_o shall_v have_v occasion_n to_o speak_v of_o it_o hereafter_o only_o this_o be_v to_o be_v mind_v here_o that_o the_o saint_n in_o all_o this_o time_n of_o the_o commission_n of_o the_o apostle_n do_v not_o drink_v of_o the_o cup_n of_o fornication_n that_o be_v they_o be_v not_o pollute_v with_o worship_v of_o idol_n and_o image_n or_o any_o false_a worship_n but_o do_v cleave_v close_o to_o the_o faith_n and_o worship_n of_o jesus_n i_o mean_v those_o that_o do_v true_o believe_v the_o apostle_n doctrine_n and_o those_o that_o be_v convert_v by_o it_o in_o the_o time_n of_o their_o commission_n their_o worship_n differ_v in_o every_o thing_n from_o the_o worship_n of_o the_o whore_n of_o babylon_n even_o as_o the_o worship_n of_o the_o jew_n do_v differ_v from_o that_o great_a city_n the_o whore_n of_o that_o babylon_n as_o aforesaid_a this_o be_v the_o true_a interpretation_n of_o the_o great_a city_n the_o spiritual_a babylon_n who_o make_v all_o nation_n drink_v of_o the_o wine_n of_o the_o wrath_n of_o her_o fornication_n as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o the_o nine_o verse_n and_o the_o three_o angel_n follow_v they_o say_v with_o a_o loud_a voice_n if_o any_o man_n worship_v his_o image_n and_o receive_v the_o mark_n in_o his_o forehead_n or_o in_o his_o hand_n in_o the_o ten_o verse_n the_o same_o shall_v drink_v of_o the_o wine_n of_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n etc._n etc._n so_o that_o none_o of_o the_o saint_n after_o they_o true_o believe_v do_v worship_v the_o beast_n nor_o his_o image_n nor_o practise_v that_o manner_n of_o worship_n that_o be_v set_v up_o by_o the_o power_n of_o the_o beast_n neither_o do_v they_o receive_v his_o mark_n neither_o in_o their_o forehead_n nor_o right_a hand_n that_o be_v they_o do_v not_o submit_v to_o his_o worship_n neither_o willing_o nor_o unwilling_o so_o that_o the_o saint_n do_v not_o drink_v of_o the_o wine_n of_o her_o fornication_n at_o all_o in_o that_o they_o do_v not_o worship_v any_o idol_n image_n or_o form_n of_o false_a worship_n which_o be_v set_v up_o by_o this_o great_a city_n the_o spiritual_a whore_n of_o babylon_n who_o torment_n be_v express_v in_o the_o verse_n follow_v both_o she_o and_o all_o those_o that_o drink_v of_o her_o cup_n of_o fornication_n and_o receive_v the_o mark_n but_o i_o shall_v pass_v by_o those_o verse_n which_o speak_v of_o that_o there_o be_v more_o saying_n hereafter_o that_o speak_v much_o of_o the_o torment_n of_o the_o whore_n of_o babylon_n and_o those_o she_o commit_v whoredom_n with_o therefore_o i_o shall_v pass_v by_o that_o and_o two_o verse_n more_o there_o be_v little_a matter_n in_o they_o but_o what_o be_v common_o know_v by_o all_o so_o i_o shall_v proceed_v to_o the_o fourteen_o verse_n chap._n xliv_o and_o i_o look_v and_o behold_v a_o white_a cloud_n and_o upon_o the_o cloud_n one_o sit_v like_a unto_o the_o son_n of_o man_n have_v on_o his_o head_n a_o golden_a crown_n and_o in_o his_o hand_n a_o sharp_a sickle_n this_o son_n of_o man_n john_n see_v sit_v upon_o the_o white_a cloud_n i_o declare_v it_o be_v no_o other_o but_o christ_n the_o only_a god_n though_o say_v by_o john_n to_o like_v unto_o the_o son_n of_o man._n he_o may_v well_o be_v say_v to_o be_v like_a unto_o the_o son_n of_o man_n because_o he_o be_v be_v the_o son_n of_o man_n for_o he_o call_v himself_o so_o for_o say_v he_o when_o he_o be_v on_o earth_n the_o son_n of_o man_n must_v be_v betray_v into_o the_o hand_n of_o sinner_n mean_v himself_o and_o other_o place_n in_o scripture_n where_o he_o call_v himself_o the_o son_n of_o man._n now_o to_o know_v why_o christ_n call_v himself_o the_o son_n of_o man_n he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n nay_o god_n himself_o it_o will_v be_v worth_a the_o unfolding_n of_o this_o mystery_n to_o this_o i_o say_v he_o call_v himself_o the_o son_n of_o man_n because_o he_o take_v upon_o he_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n in_o the_o womb_n of_o mary_n the_o virgin_n that_o be_v he_o gain_v the_o godhead_n nature_n and_o manhood_n together_o in_o the_o womb_n of_o mary_n the_o virgin_n and_o there_o clothe_v the_o godhead_n nature_n with_o pure_a humane_a flesh_n so_o that_o he_o when_o he_o be_v bear_v into_o this_o world_n be_v perfect_a god_n and_o man_n according_a to_o that_o saying_n isaiah_n the_o nine_o to_o we_o a_o child_n be_v bear_v to_o we_o a_o son_n be_v give_v he_o shall_v be_v call_v the_o mighty_a god_n the_o everlasting_a father_n with_o other_o title_n of_o the_o divine_a godhead_n yet_o a_o child_n a_o perfect_a man_n child_n bear_v of_o a_o virgin_n and_o she_o conceive_v in_o her_o womb_n by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n that_o be_v by_o the_o holy_a god_n so_o the_o virgin_n she_o be_v the_o mother_n that_o bare_a jesus_n and_o bring_v he_o forth_o into_o this_o world_n as_o other_o child_n be_v bring_v forth_o into_o this_o world_n in_o this_o regard_n he_o do_v call_v himself_o and_o be_v call_v by_o the_o spirit_n the_o son_n of_o man._n for_o he_o take_v the_o nature_n of_o man_n upon_o he_o and_o be_v bear_v of_o a_o virgin_n he_o may_v call_v himself_o the_o son_n of_o man._n that_o be_v he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o man_n but_o by_o the_o mother_n side_n but_o not_o by_o the_o father_n side_n for_o by_o the_o father_n side_n he_o call_v himself_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o so_o he_o be_v yea_o he_o be_v god_n himself_o the_o parallel_v be_v much_o like_a unto_o cain_n and_o abel_n they_o be_v both_o brother_n by_o the_o mother_n side_n but_o not_o by_o the_o father_n for_o they_o have_v two_o several_a father_n adam_n be_v the_o father_n of_o righteous_a abel_n and_o the_o serpent-angel_n be_v the_o father_n of_o curse_a cain_n as_o the_o scripture_n do_v plain_o prove_v if_o understand_v by_o the_o reader_n for_o it_o be_v not_o write_v no_o where_o in_o scripture_n that_o adam_n beget_v cain_n yet_o notwithstanding_o eve_n be_v the_o mother_n of_o they_o both_o and_o so_o cain_n and_o abel_n be_v brother_n by_o the_o mother_n side_n but_o not_o by_o the_o father_n side_n so_o likewise_o christ_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n nay_o god_n himself_o by_o the_o father_n side_n but_o by_o the_o mother_n side_n he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o man._n and_o in_o this_o sense_n he_o call_v himself_o the_o son_n of_o man._n and_o this_o son_n of_o man_n be_v that_o son_n of_o man_n john_n look_v and_o see_v sit_v upon_o a_o white_a cloud_n have_v on_o his_o head_n a_o golden_a crown_n and_o in_o his_o hand_n a_o sharp_a sickle_n this_o cloud_n he_o sit_v upon_o it_o be_v that_o cloud_n the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o hebr._n 12._o wherefore_o see_v we_o also_o be_v encompass_v about_o with_o so_o great_a a_o cloud_n of_o witness_n now_o what_o this_o cloud_n be_v it_o be_v express_v in_o the_o eleven_o chapter_n concern_v the_o

revelation_n of_o john_n be_v more_o clear_a that_o god_n do_v die_v than_o any_o other_o scripture_n as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o the_o 11._o verse_n of_o this_o chapter_n in_o the_o 10._o verse_n he_o be_v in_o the_o spirit_n on_o the_o lord_n day_n what_o day_n that_o be_v i_o have_v show_v before_o and_o john_n hear_v behind_o he_o a_o great_a voice_n as_o of_o a_o trumpet_n in_o the_o 11._o verse_n say_v i_o be_o alpha_n and_o omega_n the_o first_o and_o the_o last_o and_o what_o thou_o see_v write_v in_o a_o book_n and_o send_v it_o unto_o the_o seven_o church_n etc._n etc._n and_o in_o the_o 12._o verse_n john_n turn_v to_o see_v the_o voice_n that_o speak_v to_o he_o and_o be_v turn_v he_o see_v seven_o golden_a candlestick_n these_o seven_o golden_a candlestick_n be_v the_o seven_o church_n of_o asia_n as_o aforesaid_a and_o in_o the_o 13._o verse_n and_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o seven_o golden_a candlestick_n one_o like_a unto_o the_o son_n of_o man_n clothe_v with_o a_o garment_n down_o to_o the_o foot_n and_o gird_v about_o the_o waste_n with_o a_o golden_a girdle_n this_o great_a voice_n which_o john_n hear_v it_o be_v as_o the_o sound_n of_o a_o trumpet_n come_v from_o no_o other_o but_o from_o jesus_n christ_n the_o only_a god_n he_o be_v that_o alpha_n and_o omega_n the_o first_o and_o the_o last_o which_o bid_v john_n write_v in_o a_o book_n what_o he_o have_v see_v and_o in_o the_o 12_o verse_n john_n turn_v to_o see_v the_o voice_n and_o in_o stead_n of_o see_v the_o voice_n he_o see_v he_o that_o speak_v the_o voice_n and_o he_o be_v like_a unto_o the_o son_n of_o man_n clothe_v with_o a_o garment_n down_o to_o the_o foot_n now_o what_o this_o garment_n be_v i_o shall_v unfold_v hereafter_o there_o be_v many_o other_o glorious_a expression_n in_o this_o chapter_n to_o set_v forth_o this_o son_n of_o man_n in_o his_o glory_n but_o i_o shall_v pass_v by_o they_o only_o this_o i_o will_v have_v the_o seed_n of_o faith_n to_o mind_n that_o this_o son_n of_o man_n which_o john_n see_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o seven_o golden_a candlestick_n who_o be_v clothe_v with_o a_o garment_n down_o to_o the_o foot_n i_o declare_v it_o be_v the_o same_o alpha_n and_o omega_n which_o speak_v that_o great_a voice_n and_o john_n turn_v to_o see_v this_o alpha_n and_o omega_n he_o see_v he_o like_a unto_o the_o son_n of_o man._n therefore_o i_o will_v have_v the_o seed_n of_o faith_n to_o observe_v that_o there_o be_v no_o see_v of_o god_n the_o alpha_n and_o omega_n neither_o by_o vision_n nor_o by_o faith_n but_o in_o the_o form_n of_o a_o man_n therefore_o call_v the_o son_n of_o man_n so_o that_o though_o christ_n be_v call_v the_o son_n of_o man_n yet_o he_o be_v nevertheless_o god_n for_o he_o be_v the_o alpha_n and_o omega_n the_o first_o and_o the_o last_o as_o you_o may_v plain_o see_v in_o the_o 17._o verse_n of_o this_o chapter_n where_o he_o say_v and_o when_o i_o see_v he_o i_o fall_v at_o his_o foot_n as_o dead_a and_o he_o lay_v his_o right_a hand_n upon_o i_o say_v unto_o i_o fear_v not_o i_o be_o the_o first_o and_o the_o last_o i_o be_o he_o that_o live_v and_o be_v dead_a and_o behold_v i_o be_o alive_a for_o evermore_o amen_o and_o have_v the_o key_n of_o hell_n and_o of_o death_n here_o you_o that_o have_v faith_n in_o the_o true_a god_n may_v clear_o understand_v that_o this_o jesus_n christ_n which_o be_v call_v the_o son_n of_o man_n i●_n the_o alpha_n and_o omega_n the_o first_o and_o the_o last_o also_o it_o may_v be_v as_o clear_o understand_v by_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n that_o god_n do_v die_v for_o if_o god_n be_v alpha_n and_o omega_n the_o first_o and_o the_o last_o as_o i_o think_v all_o man_n will_v confess_v than_o i_o say_v the_o same_o alpha_n and_o omega_n and_o the_o same_o first_o and_o last_o be_v he_o which_o be_v dead_a and_o be_v alive_a for_o evermore_o and_o be_v there_o any_o god_n that_o suffer_v death_n and_o rose_n again_o but_o christ_n have_v any_o god_n the_o key_n of_o hell_n and_o of_o death_n in_o his_o hand_n but_o christ_n only_o and_o that_o you_o may_v see_v the_o truth_n of_o this_o that_o christ_n be_v alpha_n and_o omega_n the_o first_o and_o the_o last_o though_o become_v a_o son_n have_v flesh_n blood_n and_o bone_n that_o he_o may_v be_v capable_a to_o suffer_v the_o pain_n of_o death_n as_o aforesaid_a yet_o he_o be_v look_v upon_o by_o the_o eye_n of_o faith_n to_o be_v the_o first_o and_o the_o last_o the_o lord_n almighty_n he_o be_v the_o same_o as_o the_o prophet_n prophesy_v of_o as_o you_o may_v see_v isaiah_n the_o 41._o and_o 4._o verse_n who_o have_v wrought_v and_o do_v it_o call_v the_o generation_n from_o the_o beginning_n i_o the_o lord_n the_o first_o and_o with_o the_o last_o i_o be_o he_o so_o likewise_o in_o the_o 44._o of_o isaiah_n and_o the_o 6_o verse_n thus_o say_v the_o lord_n the_o king_n of_o israel_n and_o his_o redeemer_n the_o lord_n of_o host_n i_o be_o the_o first_o and_o i_o be_o the_o last_o and_o beside_o i_o there_o be_v no_o god_n i_o will_v have_v the_o seed_n of_o faith_n to_o understand_v that_o this_o lord_n and_o this_o god_n which_o be_v the_o first_o and_o the_o last_o that_o isaiah_n speak_v of_o be_v the_o same_o that_o john_n speak_v of_o in_o the_o revelation_n only_o the_o prophet_n speak_v of_o he_o as_o he_o be_v in_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o father_n and_o be_v to_o redeem_v his_o people_n from_o their_o sin_n but_o john_n speak_v of_o he_o as_o he_o be_v a_o son_n and_o that_o he_o have_v suffer_v death_n and_o redeem_v his_o people_n and_o so_o john_n call_v he_o the_o first_o and_o the_o last_o as_o he_o be_v a_o son_n and_o suffer_v death_n but_o be_v now_o alive_a for_o evermore_o amen_n yet_o all_o but_o one_o god_n even_o the_o the_o man_n christ_n jesus_n who_o be_v that_o alpha_n and_o omega_n the_o beginning_n and_o the_o end_n the_o first_o and_o the_o last_o he_o who_o be_v dead_a and_o be_v alive_a and_o behold_v he_o be_v alive_a for_o evermore_o and_o no_o other_o god_n have_v the_o key_n of_o hell_n and_o of_o death_n but_o christ_n only_o which_o he_o have_v purchase_v by_o his_o own_o blood_n his_o blood_n be_v no_o less_o than_o the_o blood_n of_o god_n the_o alpha_n and_o omega_n the_o first_o and_o the_o last_o as_o aforesaid_a chap._n vii_o in_o the_o 19_o verse_n of_o this_o chapter_n john_n be_v command_v to_o write_v the_o thing_n which_o he_o have_v see_v and_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v and_o the_o thing_n which_o shall_v be_v hereafter_o to_o who_o he_o be_v to_o write_v it_o be_v to_o the_o seven_o church_n of_o asia_n and_o in_o the_o 20_o verse_n which_o be_v the_o last_o verse_n of_o this_o chapter_n he_o interpret_v what_o the_o seven_o star_n which_o he_o see_v in_o christ_n right_a right_a hand_n be_v and_o what_o the_o seven_o golden_a candlestcik_n be_v therefore_o i_o shall_v say_v no_o more_o of_o it_o here_o and_o as_o for_o what_o john_n do_v write_v to_o the_o seven_o church_n of_o asia_n it_o be_v set_v down_o in_o the_o two_o chapter_n follow_v those_o two_o chapter_n treat_v only_o upon_o the_o seven_o church_n of_o asia_n and_o the_o chief_a thing_n in_o those_o two_o chapter_n i_o have_v interpret_v already_o and_o the_o chief_a thing_n which_o be_v of_o most_o concernment_n in_o the_o first_o chapter_n i_o have_v also_o interpret_v therefore_o i_o shall_v go_v to_o the_o four_o chapter_n but_o i_o suppose_v it_o will_v be_v necessary_a to_o the_o reader_n for_o i_o to_o show_v what_o a_o resemblance_n and_o likeness_n there_o be_v between_o the_o seven_o church_n now_o in_o europe_n in_o these_o our_o day_n and_o the_o seven_o church_n of_o asia_n and_o how_o the_o angel_n of_o the_o seven_o church_n which_o be_v the_o minister_n or_o speaker_n do_v agree_v with_o the_o seven_o angel_n of_o the_o seven_o church_n of_o asia_n i_o have_v speak_v something_o of_o they_o in_o the_o interpretation_n of_o the_o 11_o of_o the_o revelation_n but_o i_o shall_v speak_v a_o little_a more_o of_o they_o here_o because_o it_o be_v something_o necessary_a to_o inform_v the_o reader_n therefore_o mind_n the_o distinction_n between_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o we_o read_v that_o the_o seven_o church_n of_o asia_n have_v seven_o several_a name_n as_o may_v be_v read_v and_o according_a to_o their_o good_a practice_n and_o their_o bad_a they_o be_v either_o reprove_v or_o commend_v as_o i_o have_v show_v before_o so_o likewise_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o seven_o church_n of_o europe_n may_v be_v call_v seven_o angel_n
if_o the_o minister_n and_o speaker_n of_o the_o seven_o church_n of_o europe_n be_v all_o false_a for_o want_v of_o a_o commission_n from_o god_n what_o will_v become_v of_o all_o the_o people_n which_o be_v congregat_v and_o join_v to_o their_o several_a ministery_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o there_o be_v a_o remnant_n of_o the_o elect_a seed_n in_o every_o one_o of_o these_o seven_o church_n of_o europe_n that_o will_v be_v save_v because_o the_o election_n of_o god_n stand_v sure_a but_o this_o i_o must_v tell_v you_o that_o there_o be_v no_o man_n or_o woman_n that_o be_v congregrate_v or_o join_v to_o any_o of_o these_o seven_o church_n that_o can_v have_v the_o assurance_n of_o eternal_a life_n abide_v in_o they_o while_o they_o live_v in_o this_o world_n for_o how_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o the_o sheep_n shall_v know_v their_o eternal_a happiness_n when_o as_o the_o shepherd_n do_v not_o know_v their_o own_o salvation_n no_o not_o one_o of_o they_o therefore_o according_a to_o my_o revelation_n and_o faith_n i_o can_v see_v by_o the_o rule_n of_o scripture_n that_o any_o of_o the_o minister_n or_o speaker_n of_o the_o seven_o church_n of_o europe_n now_o adays_o that_o can_v be_v save_v though_o some_o of_o their_o member_n may_v this_o may_v and_o will_v be_v think_v a_o hard_a say_n of_o i_o but_o i_o can_v help_v it_o neither_o do_v i_o speak_v it_o out_o of_o any_o ill_a will_n to_o minister_n or_o speaker_n but_o can_v rather_o be_v find_v a_o liar_n in_o this_o point_n but_o i_o be_v commissionated_a of_o god_n and_o find_v the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n of_o old_a to_o speak_v so_o much_o against_o those_o which_o take_v upon_o they_o to_o be_v messenger_n minister_n ambassador_n and_o preacher_n of_o the_o everlasting_a gospel_n without_o a_o commission_n from_o christ_n they_o be_v more_o guilty_a of_o spiritual_a high_a treason_n than_o any_o other_o man_n so_o according_a to_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n and_o my_o faith_n i_o can_v see_v how_o any_o counterfeit_a minister_n of_o what_o church_n soever_o shall_v be_v save_v in_o the_o day_n of_o account_n for_o if_o it_o be_v such_o a_o dangerous_a thing_n to_o be_v a_o false_a prophet_n or_o a_o false_a christ_n why_o shall_v it_o not_o be_v as_o dangerous_a a_o thing_n to_o be_v a_o false_a minister_n to_o go_v before_o he_o be_v send_v and_o let_v minister_n take_v this_o by_o the_o way_n and_o though_o the_o civil_a power_n do_v uphold_v and_o maintain_v they_o yet_o when_o they_o die_v god_n will_v not_o uphold_v they_o in_o it_o neither_o will_v their_o conscience_n justify_v they_o in_o it_o but_o you_o must_v lay_v down_o your_o life_n under_o the_o fear_n of_o eternal_a death_n because_o you_o go_v to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n and_o be_v not_o send_v of_o christ_n likewise_o you_o see_v that_o false_a christ_n and_o false_a prophet_n have_v be_v punish_v in_o all_o age_n by_o the_o civil_a magistrate_n and_o the_o priest_n together_o and_o so_o they_o serve_v the_o true_a christ_n and_o the_o true_a prophet_n all_o of_o they_o be_v persecute_v as_o false_a but_o it_o be_v seldom_o know_v that_o a_o minister_n be_v persecute_v as_o he_o be_v a_o minister_n not_o by_o the_o magistrate_n but_o for_o some_o other_o misdemeanour_n or_o for_o speak_v evil_a of_o the_o civil_a power_n but_o not_o for_o his_o preach_n without_o a_o commission_n from_o cod._n therefore_o his_o punishment_n will_v be_v no_o less_o than_o eternal_a damnation_n i_o speak_v this_o not_o only_o to_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o nation_n but_o to_o the_o ministry_n of_o all_o the_o seven_o church_n now_o in_o europe_n for_o they_o do_v all_o of_o they_o preach_v without_o a_o commission_n from_o god_n and_o run_v into_o the_o ministry_n before_o they_o be_v send_v which_o will_v be_v count_v by_o the_o lord_n jesus_n but_o a_o work_n of_o iniquity_n and_o what_o will_v be_v the_o wage_n of_o such_o a_o work_n but_o eternal_a damnation_n i_o know_v i_o shall_v offend_v the_o minister_n and_o speaker_n of_o all_o the_o seven_o church_n aforesaid_a but_o see_v they_o be_v all_o false_a they_o may_v bear_v the_o better_a with_o i_o and_o with_o one_o another_o for_o they_o will_v have_v wage_n all_o alike_o for_o as_o i_o say_v before_o according_a to_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n record_v in_o the_o scripture_n and_o according_a to_o the_o faith_n which_o i_o have_v in_o the_o scripture_n there_o will_v be_v no_o salvation_n find_v for_o none_o of_o the_o minister_n and_o speaker_n of_o the_o seven_o church_n aforesaid_a except_o any_o of_o they_o be_v persuade_v in_o their_o own_o mind_n to_o lay_v it_o down_o before_o they_o die_v and_o so_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o true_a god_n for_o this_o i_o do_v affirm_v that_o no_o man_n so_o long_o as_o he_o do_v exercise_v the_o office_n of_o a_o minister_n without_o a_o commission_n from_o god_n he_o can_v be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o salvation_n then_o of_o necessity_n he_o must_v be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o condemnation_n and_o this_o will_v be_v the_o condition_n of_o all_o the_o minister_n and_o speaker_n of_o the_o seven_o church_n aforesaid_a and_o the_o quaker_n ministry_n be_v the_o seven_o and_o last_o anti-angel_n that_o will_v sound_v until_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n and_o when_o the_o voice_n of_o this_o angel_n do_v begin_v to_o sound_v the_o mystery_n of_o god_n be_v finish_v as_o he_o have_v declare_v by_o his_o servant_n the_o prophet_n that_o be_v the_o declaration_n of_o the_o mystery_n of_o god_n be_v and_o will_v be_v finish_v in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o voice_n of_o the_o seven_o angel_n which_o voice_n be_v the_o minister_n of_o the_o quaker_n as_o i_o have_v open_v in_o the_o interpretation_n of_o the_o eleven_o of_o the_o revelation_n therefore_o i_o shall_v say_v no_o more_o of_o those_o seven_o church_n now_o that_o be_v the_o pure_a angel_n of_o all_o the_o seven_o in_o respect_n of_o righteousness_n of_o life_n though_o the_o worst_a of_o all_o in_o point_n of_o doctrine_n and_o the_o quaker_n ministry_n do_v deceive_v more_o than_o any_o of_o the_o other_o six_o for_o they_o be_v so_o angel-and_a godlike_a that_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a will_v deceive_v the_o very_a elect_a for_o every_o one_o that_o have_v but_o one_o eye_n that_o be_v the_o eye_n of_o reason_n may_v see_v that_o all_o the_o other_o church_n have_v such_o a_o deal_n of_o corruption_n superstition_n unjustness_n idolatry_n and_o many_o other_o wickedness_n which_o reason_n itself_o do_v judge_v can_v be_v the_o way_n of_o god_n and_o that_o be_v the_o very_a cause_n that_o when_o people_n have_v be_v unsatisfied_a in_o the_o way_n of_o worship_n in_o the_o other_o church_n they_o have_v decline_v from_o they_o and_o have_v turn_v quaker_n they_o be_v more_o pure_a in_o life_n for_o pureness_n of_o life_n give_v more_o peace_n to_o the_o mind_n of_o man_n then_o wickedness_n do_v for_o every_o action_n have_v a_o reward_n in_o itself_o whether_o it_o be_v good_a or_o bad_a for_o he_o that_o do_v suffer_v persecution_n for_o his_o conscience_n be_v more_o to_o be_v justify_v than_o he_o which_o persecute_v for_o conscience_n sake_n yet_o nevertheless_o the_o reward_n of_o eternal_a life_n it_o belong_v only_o unto_o the_o act_n of_o faith_n in_o the_o true_a god_n which_o the_o quaker_n ministry_n do_v not_o teach_v notwithstanding_o their_o purity_n of_o life_n etc._n etc._n chap._n viii_o now_o i_o have_v open_v

their_o conscience_n by_o worship_v a_o false_a god_n as_o the_o generality_n of_o the_o people_n do_v through_o the_o darkness_n of_o their_o mind_n they_o be_v the_o black_a horse_n for_o the_o

the_o reader_n to_o mind_v the_o interpretation_n of_o this_o pale_a horse_n because_o everyone_o of_o we_o must_v be_v a_o pale_a horse_n for_o death_n to_o sit_v upon_o except_o we_o be_v swallow_v

to_o give_v you_o the_o meaning_n what_o this_o pale_a horse_n be_v it_o be_v no_o other_o but_o the_o sinful_a soul_n of_o man_n and_o woman_n therefore_o as_o the_o scripture_n say_v when_o sin_n enter_v into_o the_o world_n than_o death_n enter_v in_o upon_o it_o so_o that_o as_o soon_o as_o ever_o the_o soul_n of_o adam_n and_o eve_n have_v let_v sin_n enter_v into_o their_o soul_n then_o death_n enter_v for_o death_n do_v ride_v upon_o sin_n and_o sin_n do_v ride_v upon_o the_o soul_n of_o we_o first_o parent_n according_a to_o that_o say_n of_o god_n in_o the_o day_n that_o thou_o

also_o which_o make_v the_o soul_n of_o adam_n to_o fear_v therefore_o he_o go_v to_o hide_v himself_o for_o the_o fear_n of_o death_n will_v make_v the_o soul_n to_o look_v pale_a so_o that_o it_o will_v become_v a_o pale_a horse_n for_o death_n to_o ride_v upon_o for_o by_o sin_n enter_v into_o the_o world_n death_n get_v power_n over_o all_o life_n so_o that_o death_n sit_v upon_o all_o life_n both_o upon_o man_n and_o beast_n for_o the_o beast_n be_v make_v subject_a to_o death_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o fall_n of_o man_n only_o i_o will_v have_v the_o reader_n to_o understand_v this_o secret_a that_o the_o creature_n the_o beast_n be_v create_v of_o god_n on_o purpose_n to_o be_v kill_v for_o the_o nourishment_n of_o man_n but_o if_o sin_n have_v never_o be_v commit_v by_o man_n death_n will_v never_o have_v enter_v upon_o the_o life_n of_o man_n nor_o beast_n that_o be_v no_o beast_n will_v have_v die_v natural_o as_o they_o do_v now_o but_o what_o be_v kill_v on_o

indeed_o so_o that_o the_o generality_n of_o man_n and_o woman_n have_v the_o fear_n of_o eternal_a death_n that_o sit_v upon_o their_o soul_n so_o that_o they_o be_v that_o pale_a horse_n that_o

ride_v upon_o the_o pale_a horse_n as_o i_o show_v before_o and_o these_o four_o horse_n as_o john_n speak_v of_o in_o his_o vision_n be_v the_o same_o horse_n as_o zechariah_n speak_v of_o in_o his_o

black_a horse_n and_o the_o three_o have_v white_a horse_n and_o the_o four_o have_v grizzle_v and_o bay_a horse_n now_o the_o prophet_n express_v in_o his_o vision_n the_o horse_n in_o the_o plural_a number_n to_o be_v more_o horse_n than_o one_o of_o a_o sort_n but_o john_n declare_v they_o in_o his_o vision_n in_o the_o singular_a number_n therefore_o though_o there_o be_v more_o express_v by_o the_o prophet_n yet_o the_o matter_n and_o substance_n be_v all_o one_o for_o all_o horse_n be_v comprise_v under_o those_o four_o so_o that_o there_o need_v no_o further_o open_v of_o the_o horse_n

have_v be_v the_o usual_a custom_n of_o those_o that_o write_v those_o vision_n in_o the_o scripture_n they_o be_v present_v to_o the_o choose_a prophet_n and_o messenger_n of_o the_o most_o high_a god_n those_o vision_n so_o present_v be_v to_o signify_v either_o some_o extraordinary_a happiness_n and_o deliverance_n to_o a_o particular_a person_n or_o people_n or_o nation_n or_o else_o some_o great_a judgement_n and_o destruction_n to_o a_o person_n people_n or_o nation_n in_o the_o temporal_a as_o aforesaid_a or_o else_o vision_n be_v present_v to_o the_o understanding_n of_o man_n to_o signify_v spiritual_a and_o eternal_a blessing_n to_o a_o number_n of_o people_n or_o else_o to_o signify_v spiritual_a and_o eternal_a misery_n unto_o a_o number_n of_o people_n so_o that_o what_o vision_n be_v declare_v by_o choose_a man_n of_o god_n though_o the_o thing_n be_v not_o immediate_o at_o hand_n whether_o the_o vision_n do_v signify_v temporal_a or_o spiritual_a thing_n yet_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n do_v look_v upon_o it_o as_o if_o it_o be_v in_o present_a be_v because_o they_o believe_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o thing_n as_o those_o prophet_n of_o old_a do_v prophesy_v of_o christ_n come_v in_o the_o flesh_n as_o isaiah_n say_v in_o the_o 9_o chapter_n to_o we_o a_o child_n be_v bear_v and_o to_o we_o a_o son_n be_v give_v meaning_n christ_n etc._n etc._n now_o the_o prophet_n say_v he_o be_v bear_v when_o as_o he_o be_v not_o bor●_n many_o hundred_o year_n after_o that_o and_o so_o other_o of_o the_o prophet_n look_v upon_o the_o birth_n of_o christ_n the_o redeemer_n as_o in_o present_a be_v for_o as_o i_o have_v say_v in_o my_o other_o write_n that_o faith_n do_v look_v at_o thing_n afar_o off_o and_o at_o a_o distance_n as_o near_o at_o hand_n and_o in_o present_a be_v but_o because_o the_o seed_n of_o reason_n can_v do_v so_o therefore_o they_o do_v not_o prevent_v neither_o the_o temporal_a nor_o the_o eternal_a judgement_n that_o will_v come_v upon_o they_o but_o you_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n may_v know_v that_o john_n do_v see_v in_o the_o vision_n by_o the_o eye_n of_o faith_n the_o soul_n of_o they_o that_o be_v slay_v under_o the_o

that_o be_v upon_o the_o persecutor_n that_o dwell_v on_o the_o earth_n now_o i_o will_v have_v you_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n to_o understand_v how_o these_o that_o be_v slay_v under_o the_o altar_n can_v cry_v for_o vengeance_n see_v they_o be_v dead_a under_o the_o altar_n and_o yet_o be_v say_v to_o cry_v aloud_o for_o vengeance_n on_o they_o that_o persecute_v and_o put_v they_o to_o death_n the_o meaning_n be_v this_o that_o the_o blood_n of_o those_o that_o be_v slay_v for_o the_o testimony_n of_o jesus_n it_o do_v cry_v virtual_o and_o efficacious_o unto_o god_n that_o he_o will_v

cry_n as_o he_o do_v the_o cry_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o abel_n it_o come_v up_o unto_o god_n as_o in_o gen._n 3._o and_o 10._o and_o god_n say_v unto_o cain_n what_o have_v thou_o do_v the_o voice_n of_o thy_o brother_n blood_n cry_v unto_o i_o from_o the_o ground_n so_o that_o the_o blood_n of_o abel_n do_v cry_v from_o the_o ground_n unto_o the_o lord_n for_o vengeance_n and_o who_o must_v the_o righteous_a judge_n be_v avenge_v of_o but_o he_o that_o shed_v his_o brother_n blood_n and_o in_o this_o manner_n do_v the_o soul_n of_o they_o that_o be_v slay_v under_o the_o altar_n for_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o the_o testimony_n they_o hold_v cry_v for_o vengeance_n upon_o those_o that_o persecute_a and_o put_v they_o to_o death_n so_o that_o you_o the_o seed_n of_o reason_n may_v see_v that_o there_o be_v power_n in_o blood_n that_o be_v shed_v for_o conscience_n sake_n in_o point_n of_o worship_n to_o cry_v unto_o the_o lord_n for_o vengeance_n upon_o those_o that_o

case_n as_o aforesaid_a will_v speak_v no_o better_a thing_n than_o the_o blood_n of_o abel_n but_o the_o very_a same_o thing_n will_v cry_v aloud_o for_o vengeance_n as_o the_o blood_n of_o abel_n and_o as_o their_o blood_n do_v that_o be_v slay_v under_o the_o altar_n as_o john_n see_v in_o his_o vision_n therefore_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v say_v to_o speak_v better_a thing_n than_o

that_o slay_v abel_n the_o grandfather_n of_o all_o persecute_v devil_n for_o worship_v of_o god_n contrary_a to_o the_o tradition_n of_o their_o father_n so_o that_o the_o blood_n of_o righteous_a
