to_o understand_v that_o christ_n the_o only_a god_n be_v he_o which_o do_v send_v forth_o these_o seven_o spirit_n unto_o the_o seven_o church_n therefore_o call_v by_o the_o revelation_n of_o john_n the_o seven_o spirit_n which_o be_v before_o his_o throne_n the_o seven_o spitit_n i_o declare_v by_o revelation_n that_o they_o be_v but_o one_o spirit_n even_o the_o spirit_n of_o jesus_n christ_n the_o only_a wise_a god_n bless_v for_o ever_o and_o ever_o only_o this_o i_o will_v have_v the_o seed_n of_o faith_n to_o understand_v that_o this_o one_o spirit_n of_o christ_n it_o have_v seven_o several_a operation_n or_o working_n in_o the_o seven_o church_n therefore_o call_v by_o the_o revelation_n of_o john_n seven_o spirit_n before_o the_o throne_n therefore_o you_o may_v read_v that_o john_n in_o his_o writing_n to_o the_o seven_o church_n of_o asia_n give_v seven_o several_a blessing_n as_o aforesaid_a so_o likewise_o he_o come_v with_o his_o message_n to_o the_o seven_o church_n with_o seven_o several_a title_n and_o yet_o all_o from_o one_o god_n and_o one_o spirit_n as_o thus_o first_o he_o write_v to_o the_o church_n of_o ephesus_n with_o this_o title_n say_v he_o that_o

any_o spirit_n that_o can_v walk_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o seven_o church_n but_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v god_n sure_o no._n second_o john_n write_v to_o the_o church_n of_o smirna_n these_o thing_n say_v the_o first_o and_o the_o last_o which_o be_v dead_a and_o be_v alive_a be_v not_o jesus_n christ_n the_o first_o and_o the_o last_o be_v not_o he_o

write_v these_o thing_n unto_o the_o church_n in_o pergamos_n say_v he_o who_o have_v the_o sharp_a sword_n with_o two_o edge_n this_o sword_n with_o two_o edge_n it_o come_v out_o of_o christ_n mouth_n i_o suppose_v all_o man_n that_o profess_v the_o scripture_n will_v confess_v it_o four_o unto_o the_o church_n in_o thyatira_n he_o write_v these_o thing_n say_v the_o son_n of_o god_n who_o have_v his_o eye_n like_v unto_o a_o flame_n of_o fire_n and_o his_o foot_n be_v like_o fine_a brass_n here_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n give_v himself_o forth_o under_o the_o title_n of_o his_o

form_n of_o a_o white_a horse_n it_o be_v not_o much_o material_a for_o it_o the_o spirit_n will_v call_v the_o righteousness_n of_o saint_n a_o white_a horse_n who_o shall_v gainsay_v it_o but_o however_o the_o white_a robe_n of_o the_o saint_n who_o be_v wash_v in_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o lamb_n be_v as_o a_o white_a horse_n for_o god_n their_o king_n to_o ride_v upon_o so_o that_o if_o you_o understand_v the_o interpretation_n of_o this_o white_a horse_n you_o may_v the_o more_o easy_o know_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o other_o three_o horse_n also_o it_o be_v necessary_a to_o know_v who_o do_v ride_v or_o sit_v upon_o this_o white_a horse_n i_o declare_v by_o revelation_n from_o the_o holy_a spirit_n that_o he_o which_o john_n see_v sit_v on_o the_o white_a horse_n it_o be_v no_o

he_o sit_v or_o ride_v upon_o the_o white_a horse_n and_o he_o go_v forth_o conquer_a and_o to_o conquer_v that_o be_v he_o be_v the_o author_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n as_o he_o be_v the_o redeemer_n that_o he_o make_v the_o saint_n so_o pure_a and_o white_a that_o they_o become_v a_o white_a horse_n for_o he_o to_o sit_v upon_o so_o that_o they_o be_v able_a by_o their_o faith_n in_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o lamb_n to_o suffer_v tribulation_n and_o death_n itself_o so_o that_o they_o become_v more_o than_o conqueror_n for_o he_o that_o suffer_v persecution_n for_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n he_o do_v conquer_v more_o than_o he_o that_o do_v persecute_v and_o put_v to_o death_n so_o likewise_o christ_n that_o sit_v upon_o this_o white_a horse_n as_o he_o be_v the_o redeemer_n he_o go_v forth_o conquer_a and_o to_o conquer_v that_o be_v he_o go_v forth_o in_o the_o power_n of_o faith_n by_o which_o he_o create_v all_o thing_n he_o go_v forth_o to_o redeem_v the_o seed_n of_o adam_n that_o be_v fall_v under_o death_n and_o the_o fear_n of_o eternal_a damnation_n so_o that_o death_n and_o hell_n get_v power_n over_o adam_n and_o his_o seed_n so_o that_o christ_n ride_v upon_o the_o white_a horse_n of_o innocency_n or_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n he_o go_v forth_o conquer_a and_o to_o conquer_v that_o be_v he_o go_v forth_o to_o die_v to_o shed_v his_o most_o precious_a blood_n and_o by_o his_o give_a himself_o up_o unto_o death_n he_o conquer_v over_o sin_n death_n and_o hell_n therefore_o it_o be_v say_v in_o scripture_n oh_o death_n i_o will_v be_v thy_o death_n oh_o grave_n i_o will_v be_v thy_o victory_n that_o be_v he_o will_v get_v victory_n over_o the_o grave_n as_o he_o do_v over_o death_n for_o he_o destroy_v death_n in_o that_o death_n can_v not_o keep_v he_o under_o it_o for_o ever_o in_o that_o he_o pass_v through_o it_o he_o get_v victory_n over_o the_o grave_n in_o that_o the_o grave_n can_v not_o keep_v he_o enclose_v in_o the_o earth_n so_o that_o he_o go_v forth_o conquer_a and_o to_o conquer_v never_o leave_v off_o until_o he_o have_v conquer_v all_o his_o enemy_n that_o be_v to_o say_v sin_n death_n devil_n hell_n the_o grave_n these_o all_o be_v his_o enemy_n and_o he_o have_v conquer_v over_o they_o all_o by_o his_o become_a flesh_n and_o by_o his_o suffering_n of_o death_n upon_o the_o cross_n as_o

the_o seed_n of_o adam_n and_o this_o be_v the_o true_a meaning_n what_o be_v mean_v by_o the_o white_a horse_n and_o by_o he_o that_o sit_v thereon_o and_o by_o his_o conquer_a and_o to_o conquer_v and_o the_o bow_n which_o he_o have_v it_o signify_v the_o power_n he_o have_v to_o shout_n and_o kill_v those_o spiritual_a enemy_n which_o be_v sin_n death_n hell_n and_o devil_n which_o can_v no_o
