the_o devil_n be_v the_o devil_n before_o and_o do_v dwell_v and_o work_v in_o evil_a man_n but_o from_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o christian_a church_n he_o be_v call_v antichrist_n and_o that_o not_o

the_o remedy_n the_o apostle_n prescribe_v to_o the_o faithful_a against_o these_o false_a prophet_n be_v not_o that_o they_o shall_v stir_v up_o the_o secular_a power_n to_o imprison_v banish_v or_o

and_o doctrine_n of_o their_o teacher_n spirit_n and_o this_o be_v evident_a by_o many_o plain_a scripture_n as_o matth._n 7._o 15._o beware_v of_o false_a prophet_n say_v christ_n to_o the_o

among_o other_o first_o because_o we_o must_v each_o one_o give_v a_o account_n for_o our_o first_o self_n before_o the_o judgement_n seat_n of_o christ_n wherefore_o it_o concern_v every_o one_o of_o

so_o they_o can_v endure_v the_o cross_n that_o be_v reproach_n poverty_n shame_n suffering_n and_o death_n for_o the_o true_a word_n wherefore_o they_o preach_v the_o gospel_n in_o such_o a_o sense_n as_o shall_v please_v the_o world_n but_o never_o offend_v they_o as_o shall_v make_v the_o world_n their_o friend_n but_o never_o their_o enemy_n for_o they_o can_v endure_v to_o think_v of_o much_o less_o to_o suffer_v the_o utmost_a hatred_n and_o persecution_n of_o the_o world_n for_o christ_n name_n sake_n wherefore_o i_o say_v again_o though_o in_o christ_n they_o will_v praise_v his_o reproach_n his_o shame_n his_o poverty_n his_o tribulation_n his_o death_n and_o crucify_a yet_o they_o can_v endure_v these_o thing_n in_o themselves_o for_o his_o truth_n sake_n but_o be_v most_o careful_a and_o studious_a to_o preach_v the_o word_n of_o god_n in_o such_o a_o worldly_a sense_n as_o shall_v never_o provoke_v the_o world_n against_o they_o to_o do_v they_o the_o least_o harm_n but_o shall_v rather_o incline_v they_o to_o confer_v upon_o they_o according_a to_o their_o own_o phrase_n all_o countenance_n and_o maintenance_n and_o thus_o the_o worldly_a teacher_n speak_v of_o the_o world_n in_o this_o sense_n also_o but_o christ_n and_o his_o seed_n who_o be_v of_o god_n they_o speak_v not_o of_o the_o world_n but_o of_o god_n that_o be_v they_o speak_v the_o word_n of_o god_n according_a to_o god_n never_o regard_v whether_o the_o world_n be_v please_v or_o displease_v therewith_o yea_o they_o speak_v god_n word_n according_a to_o god_n mind_n though_o they_o certain_o know_v that_o it_o will_v procure_v they_o all_o sort_n of_o reproach_n and_o tribulation_n and_o all_o manner_n of_o evil_a to_o be_v speak_v and_o do_v against_o they_o in_o as_o much_o as_o they_o love_v god_n and_o his_o word_n more_o than_o themselves_o and_o this_o world_n and_o so_o they_o be_v so_o far_o from_o decline_v the_o cross_n of_o christ_n which_o the_o right_a confession_n of_o the_o word_n will_v bring_v upon_o they_o that_o they_o account_v it_o their_o great_a glorify_v to_o have_v fellowship_n with_o christ_n in_o his_o suffering_n and_o to_o be_v make_v conformable_a to_o he_o in_o his_o death_n all_o which_o thing_n he_o endure_v because_o he_o speak_v god_n word_n according_a to_o god_n mind_n and_o contrary_a to_o the_o mind_n of_o the_o

and_o now_o for_o the_o use._n the_o world_n hear_v these_o teacher_n who_o be_v and_o speak_v of_o the_o world_n and_o hence_o first_o we_o learn_v that_o antichrist_n and_o his_o prophet_n use._n the_o worldly_a teacher_n come_v with_o such_o deceivableness_n be_v of_o unrighteousness_n that_o no_o natural_a or_o worldly_a man_n whatever_o of_o whatever_o part_n learning_n knowledge_n
