they_o but_o how_o can_v the_o devil_n carry_v our_o saviour_n christ_n to_o this_o high_a mountain_n objection_n i_o answer_v answer_n he_o may_v do_v it_o two_o way_n first_o by_o vision_n second_o by_o real_a transport_v of_o his_o body_n from_o jerusalem_n to_o this_o mountain_n some_o think_v that_o this_o be_v only_o in_o vision_n but_o i_o rather_o think_v our_o saviour_n christ_n be_v

be_v real_o and_o local_o transport_v from_o the_o city_n to_o the_o mountain_n the_o reason_n why_o the_o devil_n carry_v our_o saviour_n christ_n to_o the_o mountain_n be_v these_o first_o because_o the_o devil_n in_o all_o thing_n desireâ—_n to_o imitate_v god_n and_o to_o become_v as_o it_o be_v god_n ape_n now_o we_o read_v that_o the_o lord_n carry_v moses_n to_o the_o mount_n nebo_n 1._o to_o show_v he_o all_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n so_o the_o devil_n to_o imitate_v god_n and_o by_o imitate_v god_n to_o match_v he_o and_o so_o to_o disgrace_v the_o lord_n carry_v our_o saviour_n christ_n to_o the_o mountain_n as_o it_o be_v likely_a to_o imitate_v god_n deal_v with_o moses_n second_o the_o devil_n carry_v our_o saviour_n christ_n to_o this_o high_a mountain_n as_o a_o most_o fit_a and_o convenient_a place_n to_o broach_v this_o his_o three_o and_o last_o temptation_n now_o in_o hand_n in_o that_o the_o devil_n do_v carry_v our_o saviour_n christ_n from_o jerusalem_n to_o this_o hill_n local_o hence_o we_o learn_v that_o he_o may_v by_o god_n permission_n have_v like_o power_n over_o the_o dear_a child_n of_o god_n not_o once_o but_o twice_o nay_o thrice_o &_o oftentimes_o we_o see_v this_o true_a in_o our_o saviour_n christ_n the_o head_n therefore_o if_o the_o lord_n permit_v satan_n and_o by_o his_o permission_n give_v the_o devil_n liberty_n to_o transport_v our_o body_n from_o place_n to_o place_n we_o must_v not_o be_v discourage_v see_v the_o same_o thing_n befall_v the_o head_n it_o may_v also_o befall_v his_o member_n which_o we_o be_v the_o second_o part_n of_o the_o devil_n preparation_n be_v this_o that_o he_o show_v he_o all_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o world_n etc._n etc._n now_o concern_v this_o we_o may_v not_o think_v the_o devil_n can_v do_v this_o in_o deed_n and_o truth_n to_o show_v christ_n all_o the_o several_a kingdom_n of_o the_o world_n as_o they_o be_v here_o place_v upon_o earth_n for_o that_o be_v a_o thing_n

he_o can_v but_o see_v the_o one_o half_a of_o the_o earth_n and_o therefore_o we_o must_v know_v he_o show_v they_o in_o a_o counterfeit_a vision_n now_o these_o vision_n of_o the_o devil_n they_o be_v either_o of_o the_o outward_a sense_n or_o else_o of_o the_o understanding_n of_o the_o outward_a sense_n as_o the_o delusion_n of_o the_o devil_n make_v man_n think_v they_o see_v that_o they_o

not_o that_o true_a samuel_n who_o rest_v in_o the_o grave_n concern_v his_o body_n and_o remain_v in_o heaven_n concern_v his_o soul_n second_o there_o be_v false_a vision_n and_o deluding_n of_o
