present_a time_n i_o be_o force_v to_o in_o my_o defence_n not_o against_o the_o church_n but_o against_o the_o accusation_n and_o argument_n o●_n my_o adversary_n for_o the_o church_n though_o it_o excommunicate_v for_o scandalous_a life_n and_o for_o teach_v false_a doctrine_n yet_o it_o profess_v to_o impose_v nothing_o to_o be_v hold_v as_o faith_n but_o what_o may_v be_v warrant_v by_o

the_o defence_n of_o my_o belief_n j._n d._n but_o they_o that_o in_o one_o case_n be_v grieve_v in_o another_o must_v be_v relieve_v if_o perchance_o t._n h._n have_v give_v his_o disciple_n any_o discontent_n in_o his_o doctrine_n of_o heaven_n and_o the_o holy_a angel_n and_o the_o glorify_a soul_n of_o the_o saint_n he_o will_v make_v they_o amends_o in_o his_o doctrine_n of_o hell_n and_o the_o devil_n and_o the_o damn_a spirit_n first_o of_o the_o devil_n he_o fanci_v that_o all_o those_o devil_n which_o our_o saviour_n do_v cast_v out_o be_v frenzy_n and_o all_o demoniac_n or_o

himself_o most_o clear_o upon_o this_o subject_a in_o his_o animadversion_n upon_o my_o reply_n to_o his_o defence_n of_o fatal_a destiny_n there_o be_v in_o the_o scripture_n two_o sort_n of_o

if_o metaphorical_a description_n do_v not_o bear_v sad_a truth_n in_o they_o as_o well_o as_o literal_a as_o if_o final_a desperation_n be_v no_o more_o than_o a_o little_a fit_a of_o grief_n or_o

it_o not_o therefore_o much_o more_o a_o sad_a thing_n to_o lose_v a_o eternal_a happy_a life_n and_o i_o believe_v that_o he_o which_o will_v venture_v upon_o sin_n with_o such_o danger_n will_v not_o stick_v to_o do_v the_o same_o notwithstanding_o the_o doctrine_n of_o eternal_a torture_n be_v it_o not_o also_o a_o sad_a truth_n that_o the_o kingdom_n of_o darkness_n shall_v be_v a_o

unquenchable_a and_o the_o torment_v everlasting_a but_o it_o can_v be_v thence_o infer_v that_o he_o who_o shall_v be_v cast_v into_o that_o fire_n or_o be_v torment_v with_o those_o torment_n shall_v endure_v and_o resist_v they_o so_o as_o to_o be_v eternal_o burn_v and_o torture_v and_o yet_o never_o be_v destroy_v nor_o die_v and_o though_o there_o be_v many_o place_n that_o affirm_v everlasting_a fire_n into_o which_o man_n may_v be_v cast_v successivy_o one_o after_o another_o for_o ever_o yet_o i_o find_v none_o that_o affirm_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o everlasting_a life_n therein_o of_o any_o individual_a person_n if_o he_o have_v say_v and_o say_v only_o that_o the_o pain_n of_o the_o damn_a may_v be_v lessen_v as_o to_o the_o degree_n of_o they_o or_o that_o they_o endure_v not_o for_o ever_o but_o that_o after_o they_o be_v purge_v by_o long_a torment_n from_o their_o dross_n and_o corruption_n as_o gold_n in_o the_o fire_n both_o the_o damn_a spirit_n

to_o prove_v that_o all_o the_o reprobate_n which_o be_v dead_a live_v eternal_o in_o torment_n we_o read_v indeed_o that_o everlasting_a torment_n be_v prepare_v for_o the_o devil_n and_o his_o

they_o shall_v indeed_o be_v cast_v into_o the_o same_o fire_n but_o the_o scripture_n say_v plain_o enough_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v both_o body_n and_o soul_n destroy_v there_o if_o i_o have_v say_v that_o the_o devil_n themselves_o shall_v be_v restore_v to_o a_o better_a condition_n his_o lordship_n will_v have_v be_v so_o kind_a as_o to_o have_v put_v i_o into_o the_o number_n of_o the_o
