to_o be_v govern_v and_o preserve_v church_n not_o by_o ordinary_a succession_n s._n paul_n do_v witness_v the_o same_o ephes_n 4._o he_o have_v give_v gift_n unto_o man_n 〈…〉_o that_o the_o apostle_n

the_o church_n and_o the_o authority_n thereof_o be_v object_v unto_o we_o object_v let_v we_o first_o consider_v whether_o mention_n be_v make_v of_o the_o true_a church_n either_o else_o of_o the_o

true_a church_n which_o be_v but_o small_a and_o a_o company_n of_o holy_a one_o do_v retain_v the_o true_a doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n or_o the_o article_n of_o the_o faith_n like_a as_o s._n paul_n call_v the_o same_o the_o seat_n of_o truth_n but_o this_o self_n same_o true_a church_n have_v her_o doctrine_n sometime_o more_o and_o sometime_o less_o pure_a &_o manifest_a she_o have_v also_o in_o her_o many_o weak_a and_o feeble_a member_n as_o the_o apostle_n be_v the_o church_n be_v but_o yet_o they_o understand_v not_o before_o the_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n what_o shall_v be_v the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n for_o peter_n after_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v give_v do_v yet_o suppose_v that_o the_o rite_n and_o ceremony_n of_o the_o law_n be_v needful_a to_o be_v use_v but_o when_o he_o be_v admonish_v from_o heaven_n he_o then_o know_v that_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o a_o judaical_a policy_n but_o spiritual_a and_o continual_a woorship_v of_o god_n afterward_o when_o the_o apostle_n begin_v to_o preach_v there_o do_v shine_v in_o they_o time_n a_o pure_a &_o clear_a doctrine_n &_o yet_o notwithstanding_o in_o mean_a season_n there_o be_v many_o

be_v no_o small_a error_n &_o bring_v in_o with_o it_o some_o obscurity_n to_o the_o article_n of_o the_o faith_n so_o do_v christ_n foreshow_v as_o touch_v the_o church_n in_o the_o latter_a age_n that_o there_o shall_v happen_v great_a darkness_n which_o shall_v hinder_v the_o very_a elect_v one_o of_o god_n 24._o whereby_o they_o shall_v the_o less_o enjoy_v among_o they_o the_o true_a

and_o peace_n in_o this_o life_n the_o godly_a be_v still_o exercise_v with_o horrible_a affliction_n because_o god_n by_o a_o wonder_a determination_n will_v have_v his_o church_n subject_a untoo_o
