will_v not_o you_o and_o all_o man_n laugh_v at_o i_o for_o my_o folly_n and_o falsity_n no_o less_o ridiculous_a and_o false_a be_v that_o you_o affirm_v of_o abijah_n true_a it_o be_v that_o abijah_n have_v war_n with_o jeroboam_fw-la king_n of_o israel_n but_o religion_n be_v not_o the_o cause_n thereof_o but_o this_o abijah_n be_v valiant_a will_v have_v bring_v back_o again_o the_o kingdom_n of_o israel_n which_o jeroboam_fw-la have_v take_v as_o abijah_n say_v to_o the_o whole_a army_n of_o israel_n by_o rebellion_n from_o his_o father_n rehoboam_n a_o child_n and_o tender_a heart_a and_o one_o that_o can_v not_o resist_v he_o as_o abijah_n say_v of_o he_o abijah_n his_o love_n then_o and_o desire_v after_o the_o kingdom_n of_o israel_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o this_o

these_o word_n of_o you_o will_v likewise_o imagine_v that_o abijah_n be_v religious_a and_o worship_v god_n true_o whereas_o in_o truth_n he_o be_v a_o notorious_a hypocrite_n and_o gross_a idolater_n in_o the_o shut_n up_o of_o your_o answer_n touch_v asa_n you_o say_v that_o asa_n find_v not_o his_o kingdom_n a_o false_a church_n as_o king_n edward_n and_o queen_n elizabeth_n find_v england_n this_o also_o be_v very_o untrue_a nay_o asa_n find_v judah_n worse_a than_o they_o do_v england_n for_o judah_n in_o abijah_n his_o reign_n worship_v false_a god_n whereas_o england_n in_o the_o day_n of_o king_n henry_n and_o queen_n mary_n worship_v the_o true_a god_n though_o after_o a_o false_a manner_n but_o suppose_v that_o judah_n in_o abijah_n his_o time_n be_v not_o a_o false_a church_n and_o that_o asa_n find_v it_o a_o true_a that_o let_v not_o but_o that_o in_o judah_n there_o may_v be_v idolater_n at_o the_o same_o time_n worship_v either_o a_o false_a god_n or_o the_o true_a god_n after_o a_o false_a manner_n as_o the_o papist_n at_o this_o day_n in_o england_n do_v nay_o we_o can_v but_o acknowledge_v that_o such_o there_o be_v indeed_o consider_v this_o be_v say_v of_o asa_n in_o the_o very_a entrance_n into_o his_o kingdom_n 14.3_o 2._o chro._n 14.3_o that_o he_o take_v away_o the_o altar_n of_o the_o strange_a god_n and_o the_o high_a place_n and_o break_v down_o the_o image_n and_o cut_v down_o the_o grove_n verse_n 4._o and_o command_v judah_n to_o seek_v the_o lord_n god_n of_o their_o father_n and_o to_o do_v according_a to_o the_o law_n and_o the_o commandment_n now_o these_o idolater_n that_o in_o their_o high_a place_n offer_v to_o strange_a god_n do_v asa_n command_v to_o forsake_v their_o idolatry_n and_o to_o worship_v the_o lord_n god_n of_o their_o father_n after_o the_o manner_n he_o have_v command_v as_o be_v plain_a first_o by_o the_o coherence_n and_o dependence_n of_o the_o two_o verse_n aforesaid_a second_o asa_n need_v not_o to_o give_v this_o commandment_n to_o they_o who_o do_v already_o worship_n god_n true_o but_o to_o the_o idolater_n that_o be_v in_o judah_n that_o either_o worship_v strange_a god_n or_o the_o lord_n after_o their_o own_o invention_n and_o not_o as_o he_o have_v command_v be_v it_o not_o then_o plain_a in_o the_o example_n of_o asa_n that_o christian_a prince_n may_v and_o aught_o to_o command_v their_o subject_n be_v idolater_n to_o forsake_v their_o idolatry_n and_o to_o worship_v the_o lord_n and_o consequent_o to_o join_v themselves_o to_o the_o true_a church_n say_v it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o church_n of_o judah_n be_v then_o not_o a_o false_a but_o a_o true_a church_n yes_o very_o even_o all_o one_o as_o if_o the_o church_n in_o abijah_n his_o time_n have_v be_v a_o false_a church_n as_o indeed_o it_o be_v special_o if_o hereunto_o we_o add_v that_o which_o be_v set_v down_o in_o the_o second_o verse_n that_o herein_o asa_n do_v that_o which_o be_v good_a and_o right_n in_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o lord_n but_o grant_v we_o that_o the_o dissimilitude_n you_o speak_v of_o will_v help_v you_o against_o the_o example_n and_o practice_n of_o asa_n yet_o be_v it_o no_o answer_n to_o the_o other_o two_o example_n of_o hezekiah_n and_o josiah_n see_v they_o find_v the_o church_n of_o judah_n every_o whit_n as_o false_a a_o church_n as_o king_n edward_n and_o queen_n elizabeth_n do_v the_o church_n of_o england_n yea_o false_a in_o a_o high_a degree_n worship_v false_a god_n whereas_o england_n in_o king_n henry_n the_o eight_o 9_o nay_o england_n enjoy_v the_o true_a worship_n of_o god_n part_n of_o king_n henry_n his_o reign_n especial_o during_o the_o time_n of_o queen_n anne_n and_o before_o the_o six_o bloody_a article_n

after_o a_o false_a manner_n by_o the_o scripture_n it_o be_v manifest_a that_o in_o the_o day_n of_o ahaz_n and_o amon_n predecessor_n to_o the_o aforesaid_a godly_a king_n judah_n walk_v in_o the_o

and_o serve_v they_o nay_o it_o be_v say_v judah_n and_o the_o inhabitant_n of_o jerusalem_n do_v worse_o than_o the_o heathen_a who_o the_o lord_n have_v destroy_v before_o the_o child_n of_o

before_o josiah_n his_o reign_n in_o amon_n his_o day_n they_o have_v the_o false_a service_n and_o worship_n of_o god_n establish_v among_o they_o mark_v also_o how_o master_n ainsworth_n use_v

proclamation_n in_o the_o begin_n of_o her_o reign_n which_o you_o spurn_v against_o so_o much_o but_o in_o stead_n thereof_o you_o say_v that_o he_o open_v the_o door_n of_o the_o lord_n house_n bring_v in_o the_o priest_n and_o levite_n and_o send_v over_o all_o the_o land_n to_o convert_v the_o people_n from_o idolatry_n who_o laugh_v at_o the_o messenger_n &_o mock_v they_o it_o may_v
