kingdom_n of_o chryst_n and_o the_o kingdom_n of_o satan_n be_v two_o sundry_a kingdom_n and_o that_o there_o be_v between_o these_o two_o sundry_a kingdom_n the_o great_a difference_n that_o may_v be_v in_o so_o much_o as_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a for_o they_o too_o agree_v together_o thou_o see_v that_o chryst_n and_o the_o devil_n be_v two_o most_o puissant_a king_n of_o two_o most_o diverse_a kingdom_n we_o will_v speak_v of_o both_o that_o man_n may_v understand_v how_o much_o evil_a be_v in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o satan_n and_o how_o much_o goodness_n and_o felicity_n be_v in_o the_o helthful_a kingdom_n of_o christ_n as_o concern_v the_o devil_n these_o four_o point_n be_v too_o be_v consider_v first_o who_o he_o be_v 2._o what_o he_o do_v 3._o why_o he_o do_v 4._o why_o god_n suffer_v he_o too_o do_v it_o who_o be_v he_o then_o as_o in_o respect_n of_o his_o nature_n he_o be_v the_o creature_n of_o god_n as_o be_v the_o angel_n of_o god_n as_o in_o respect_n of_o his_o inclination_n and_o of_o his_o frowardness_n which_o he_o have_v of_o himself_o he_o be_v a_o liar_n a_o murderer_n and_o a_o thief_n delight_v evermore_o in_o manslaughter_n and_o lie_v and_o covet_v nothing_o so_o much_o as_o the_o everlasting_a destruction_n of_o mankind_n that_o the_o devil_n be_v such_o a_o one_o we_o be_v teach_v by_o his_o craftiness_n with_o which_o he_o deceyve_v adam_n and_o eue._n what_o do_v the_o devil_n we_o see_v in_o this_o gospel_n that_o he_o make_v this_o wretched_a man_n blind_a and_o dumb_a consider_v here_o i_o pray_v you_o the_o cruel_a tyranny_n of_o the_o devil_n against_o this_o miserable_a soul_n first_o he_o stop_v up_o his_o ear_n why_o least_o he_o shall_v hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o why_o desire_v he_o that_o because_o he_o know_v that_o the_o first_o step_n too_o heaven_n be_v too_o hear_v god_n word_n for_o never_o man_n yet_o be_v of_o year_n of_o discretion_n attain_v too_o salvation_n without_o héer_v the_o word_n of_o god_n for_o the_o gospel_n say_v paul_n be_v the_o power_n of_o god_n too_o salvation_n too_o every_o one_o that_o beléeve_v second_o he_o besiege_v his_o hart_n that_o the_o word_n may_v have_v no_o place_n in_o it_o and_o why_o do_v he_o so_o because_o he_o know_v that_o without_o faith_n which_o come_v by_o héer_v the_o word_n no_o man_n be_v justify_v for_o as_o christ_n faith_n he_o that_o beléeve_v not_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n abide_v upon_o he_o three_o he_o make_v he_o dumb_a wherefore_o that_o he_o shall_v not_o confess_v chryst_n his_o saviour_n for_o he_o know_v that_o no_o man_n be_v save_v without_o confession_n of_o the_o mouth_n for_o thus_o say_v paul_n in_o the_o ten_o untoo_o the_o roman_n with_o the_o hart_n we_o believe_v untoo_o righteousness_n and_o with_o the_o mouth_n we_o make_v confession_n too_o salvation_n four_o he_o make_v this_o miserable_a creature_n blind_a that_o he_o shall_v not_o see_v and_o why_o so_o because_o he_o shall_v not_o see_v god_n work_n which_o show_v forth_o god_n glory_n as_o david_n witness_v when_o he_o say_v the_o heaven_n declare_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o the_o firmament_n show_v his_o handy_a work_n behold_v satan_n close_v up_o all_o the_o way_n of_o salvation_n from_o this_o wretched_a man_n wherefore_o do_v this_o spiteful_a creature_n so_o first_o because_o he_o himself_o be_v damn_v and_o have_v no_o hope_n of_o salvation_n second_o he_o bear_v such_o a_o hatred_n too_o christ_n that_o he_o can_v away_o with_o his_o kingdom_n three_o he_o be_v inflame_v with_o unappeasable_a hatred_n towards_o mankind_n in_o so_o much_o as_o he_o covet_v too_o have_v they_o all_o damn_v everlasting_o as_o well_o as_o himself_o and_o therefore_o be_v it_o that_o peter_n say_v pet._n 5._o the_o devil_n go_v about_o like_o a_o roar_a lion_n seek_v who_o he_o may_v devour_v but_o why_o do_v god_n give_v satan_n this_o leave_n too_o trouble_v man_n in_o such_o wife_n first_o we_o have_v merit_v this_o punishment_n for_o our_o own_o sin_n for_o what_o evil_a so_o ever_o happen_v untoo_o we_o we_o must_v ascribe_v it_o untoo_o ourselves_o and_o seek_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o in_o ourselves_o second_o god_n suffer_v it_o too_o the_o intent_n we_o may_v learn_v how_o great_a chryste_n benefit_n be_v towards_o his_o church_n for_o no_o man_n better_o understand_v the_o commodity_n of_o

howsoever_o these_o prothëuse_n transform_v themselves_o intoo_o a_o thousand_o shape_n by_o these_o practice_n of_o satan_n we_o see_v it_o bring_v too_o pass_v that_o the_o wilful_a sort_n be_v

my_o brethren_n i_o beseech_v you_o we_o must_v beware_v of_o satan_n wile_n we_o must_v have_v a_o eye_n back_o too_o the_o example_n of_o our_o aunceter_n abel_n abraham_n the_o prophet_n chryst_n
