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

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

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

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 iâ—_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

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

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

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

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

do_v at_o this_o day_n or_o shall_v hereafter_o to_o the_o world_n end_n therefore_o if_o the_o reader_n do_v but_o understand_v the_o spiritual_a substance_n and_o meaning_n of_o john_n vision_n though_o not_o every_o particular_a circumstance_n i_o say_v it_o will_v give_v full_a satisfaction_n to_o the_o mind_n of_o man_n as_o to_o the_o scripture_n and_o to_o their_o eternal_a salvation_n the_o first_o thing_n that_o john_n see_v in_o his_o vision_n it_o be_v a_o door_n open_v in_o heaven_n now_o i_o will_v have_v the_o seed_n of_o faith_n to_o understand_v that_o there_o be_v a_o door_n belong_v to_o heaven_n and_o a_o door_n belong_v to_o hell_n therefore_o call_v in_o scripture_n the_o gate_n of_o heaven_n and_o of_o hell_n as_o christ_n say_v unto_o peter_n i_o have_v give_v thou_o the_o key_n of_o heaven_n and_o of_o hell_n so_o likewise_o when_o the_o five_o foolish_a virgin_n come_v to_o the_o door_n where_o the_o bridegroom_n be_v but_o the_o door_n be_v shut_v upon_o they_o so_o that_o they_o can_v not_o come_v in_o to_o that_o eternal_a marriage_n so_o that_o there_o be_v a_o door_n belong_v to_o heaven_n also_o there_o must_v be_v some_o body_n to_o open_v this_o door_n it_o be_v much_o like_a unto_o a_o king_n palace_n where_o no_o inferior_a person_n can_v see_v into_o it_o except_o the_o doorkeeper_n do_v open_a the_o door_n there_o be_v no_o

substance_n which_o may_v be_v see_v and_o feel_v belong_v to_o every_o earthly_a king_n palace_n the_o palace_n be_v earthly_a also_o though_o deck_v and_o set_v forth_o very_o glorious_o to_o the_o eye_n of_o sense_n and_o reason_n because_o it_o belong_v to_o reason_n kingdom_n so_o likewise_o there_o be_v as_o real_a a_o heavenly_a palace_n above_o and_o beyond_o the_o star_n where_o christ_n the_o king_n of_o heaven_n do_v sit_v upon_o his_o throne_n also_o there_o be_v a_o door_n belong_v to_o it_o of_o a_o spiritual_a and_o heavenly_a substance_n which_o may_v be_v see_v feel_v and_o understand_v by_o the_o eye_n of_o faith_n as_o the_o other_o be_v by_o the_o eye_n of_o reason_n therefore_o it_o be_v say_v in_o scripture_n by_o the_o apostle_n we_o speak_v the_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v see_v which_o we_o have_v hear_v which_o we_o have_v taste_v which_o we_o have_v handle_v of_o the_o word_n of_o life_n so_o that_o there_o be_v as_o real_a a_o spiritual_a substance_n to_o be_v see_v taste_v and_o handle_v by_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n in_o the_o mind_n as_o there_o be_v temporal_a thing_n by_o the_o seed_n of_o reason_n likewise_o christ_n be_v call_v a_o door_n

that_o be_v as_o soon_o as_o ever_o the_o door_n of_o his_o understanding_n be_v open_v the_o door_n of_o heaven_n be_v open_v also_o and_o the_o door_n of_o heaven_n be_v open_v there_o be_v present_v in_o a_o vision_n to_o his_o sight_n few_o thing_n that_o must_v be_v hereafter_o now_o what_o those_o thing_n which_o must_v be_v hereafter_o be_v they_o be_v signify_v in_o the_o vision_n in_o the_o chapter_n follow_v for_o the_o voice_n which_o talk_v with_o john_n in_o the_o vision_n bid_v he_o come_v up_o hither_o and_o i_o will_v show_v the_o thing_n which_o must_v be_v hereafter_o and_o immediate_o john_n be_v in_o the_o spirit_n that_o be_v he_o be_v so_o ravish_v and_o wrap_v up_o in_o his_o spirit_n with_o the_o the_o sight_n of_o heaven_n and_o the_o glory_n thereof_o in_o

can_v explain_v it_o not_o as_o it_o be_v in_o itself_o but_o man_n that_o have_v write_v the_o scripture_n and_o have_v have_v vision_n and_o revelation_n of_o these_o heavenly_a thing_n they_o have_v express_v they_o to_o the_o capacity_n of_o man_n as_o they_o can_v by_o word_n so_o that_o man_n may_v believe_v the_o thing_n of_o god_n which_o be_v spiritual_a and_o eternal_a by_o word_n of_o mortal_a man_n like_o themselves_o as_o man_n do_v understand_v one_o another_o in_o the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n and_o the_o gift_n of_o interpretation_n of_o scripture_n which_o be_v

in_o like_a manner_n he_o and_o the_o elder_n give_v thanks_o and_o praise_n unto_o he_o as_o he_o be_v the_o creator_n and_o sometime_o they_o give_v thanks_o unto_o he_o all_o together_o as_o he_o

and_o the_o prophet_n yet_o he_o have_v a_o body_n when_o he_o speak_v to_o moses_n in_o the_o form_n and_o likeness_n of_o a_o man_n ã€ˆâ—Šã€‰_d man_n can_v not_o have_v be_v the_o image_n and_o likeness_n of_o god_n ã€ˆâ—Šã€‰_d god_n body_n though_o it_o be_v like_o a_o man_n yet_o it_o be_v a_o spiritual_a substance_n clear_a as_o crystal_n and_o as_o i_o may_v say_v swift_a than_o thought_n bright_a than_o the_o sun_n therefore_o moses_n can_v not_o see_v his_o face_n and_o live_v for_o a_o mortal_a eyesight_n can_v see_v a_o heavenly_a and_o spiritual_a glory_n therefore_o there_o be_v no_o see_v nor_o know_v of_o god_n before_o he_o become_v flesh_n nor_o how_o he_o be_v ascend_v up_o into_o the_o same_o glory_n where_o he_o be_v before_o but_o by_o faith_n only_o for_o no_o man_n can_v see_v the_o face_n of_o jesus_n now_o he_o be_v in_o glory_n and_o live_v no_o more_o than_o moses_n can_v see_v his_o face_n and_o live_v before_o he_o become_v flesh_n and_o this_o jesus_n be_v that_o i_o be_o that_o speak_v to_o moses_n and_o that_o jehovah_n and_o that_o god_n which_o be_v that_o be_v he_o be_v from_o eternity_n and_o reveal_v to_o mankind_n from_o the_o beginning_n three_o this_o jesus_n be_v he_o which_o be_v to_o come_v that_o be_v he_o be_v to_o come_v to_o put_v a_o end_n to_o all_o time_n that_o there_o may_v nothing_o but_o eternity_n remain_v for_o as_o there_o be_v a_o beginning_n of_o time_n so_o likewise_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o end_n of_o time_n and_o as_o eternity_n have_v no_o beginning_n so_o shall_v it_o have_v no_o end_n but_o here_o lie_v the_o great_a mystery_n that_o eternity_n become_v time_n and_o time_n become_v eternity_n again_o the_o meaning_n be_v this_o god_n become_v flesh_n and_o flesh_n be_v in_o time_n and_o christ_n he_o be_v that_o flesh_n of_o god_n therefore_o call_v by_o the_o revelation_n of_o john_n he_o which_o be_v before_o he_o become_v flesh_n he_o be_v god_n then_o under_o the_o title_n of_o god_n the_o father_n and_o after_o he_o do_v become_v flesh_n the_o revelation_n of_o john_n do_v say_v he_o be_v that_o he_o be_v god_n now_o under_o the_o title_n of_o god_n the_o son_n and_o as_o he_o be_v to_o come_v he_o be_v god_n under_o the_o title_n of_o god_n the_o holy_a spirit_n yet_o these_o three_o be_v but_o one_o personal_a glory_n they_o be_v all_o call_v by_o the_o revelation_n of_o john_n but_o he_o that_o be_v which_o be_v and_o which_o be_v to_o come_v and_o as_o moses_n and_o the_o prophet_n do_v see_v by_o the_o eye_n of_o faith_n that_o god_n be_v a_o spiritual_a body_n in_o the_o form_n of_o a_o man_n and_o that_o this_o god_n will_v become_v flesh_n this_o i_o say_v they_o do_v see_v by_o the_o eye_n of_o faith_n and_o so_o be_v very_o well_o satisfy_v the_o truth_n of_o this_o may_v be_v understand_v by_o the_o eye_n of_o faith_n from_o that_o say_n of_o moses_n unto_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n where_o he_o say_v god_n will_v raise_v you_o up_o a_o prophet_n like_o unto_o i_o he_o shall_v you_o hear_v that_o be_v god_n will_v become_v flesh_n himself_o so_o that_o he_o may_v be_v capable_a to_o be_v a_o prophet_n that_o you_o may_v be_v the_o more_o capable_a to_o hear_v he_o so_o likewise_o that_o place_n the_o 9_o of_o isaiah_n he_o prophesi_v of_o god_n become_v flesh_n in_o that_o he_o say_v to_o we_o a_o child_n be_v bear_v unto_o we_o a_o son_n be_v give_v and_o the_o govenrment_n shall_v be_v upon_o his_o shoulder_n and_o he_o shall_v be_v call_v the_o mighty_a god_n the_o everlasting_a father_n the_o prince_n of_o peace_n this_o isaiah_n do_v see_v by_o the_o eye_n of_o faith_n that_o god_n shall_v become_v a_o little_a child_n great_a be_v this_o mystery_n of_o god_n but_o few_o that_o understand_v it_o for_o this_o jesus_n be_v the_o only_a wise_a god_n which_o be_v which_o be_v and_o which_o be_v to_o come_v which_o have_v wash_v every_o true_a believer_n soul_n in_o his_o own_o blood_n neither_o

speak_v more_o of_o that_o hereafter_o what_o shall_v be_v the_o meaning_n of_o those_o seven_o spirit_n which_o be_v before_o his_o throne_n i_o declare_v by_o revelation_n that_o those_o seven_o
