england_n from_o thence_o be_v not_o there_o a_o reverend_a presbyter_n nay_o further_o what_o do_v you_o think_v of_o the_o gather_v together_o of_o those_o kind_n of_o creature_n in_o the_o north_n

the_o scribe_n i_o shall_v for_o a_o conclusion_n desire_v your_o consideration_n on_o the_o 33._o and_o 34._o chapter_n of_o the_o pprophecy_n of_o ezekiel_n the_o postscript_n christian_n reader_n i_o shall_v desire_v thy_o impartial_a censure_n on_o these_o few_o thing_n judge_n but_o judge_v not_o false_a judgement_n though_o i_o have_v endeavour_v to_o discover_v to_o thou_o that_o antichrist_n be_v creep_v in_o among_o we_o in_o the_o shape_n of_o a_o presbyter_n yet_o do_v i_o not_o in_o the_o least_o here_o strive_v to_o persuade_v thou_o that_o presbytery_n be_v antichristian_a for_o we_o have_v be_v too_o forward_o to_o judge_v of_o man_n and_o thing_n as_o they_o have_v be_v represent_v to_o we_o under_o good_a or_o bad_a name_n and_o from_o thence_o rise_v that_o true_a proverb_n among_o we_o a_o jew_n will_v not_o have_v do_v such_o a_o thing_n but_o the_o apostle_n tell_v they_o he_o be_v not_o a_o jew_n that_o be_v one_o outward_o but_o he_o that_o be_v one_o inward_o rom._n 2.28_o and_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n the_o saint_n in_o the_o apostle_n time_n differ_v so_o much_o by_o judge_v one_o another_o according_a to_o outward_a appearance_n as_o they_o be_v distinguish_v by_o their_o name_n some_o of_o paul_n and_o some_o of_o apoll._n s_o etc._n etc._n 1._o cor._n 1.12_o and_o therefore_o when_o christ_n be_v prophesy_v on_o to_o come_v a_o judge_n it_o be_v say_v he_o shall_v not_o judge_n after_o the_o sight_n of_o his_o eye_n nor_o reprove_v after_o the_o hear_n of_o his_o ear_n but_o he_o shall_v judge_v with_o righteousness_n and_o reprove_v with_o equity_n and_o though_o our_o judge_n be_v forward_a to_o judge_v for_o the_o rich_a and_o speak_v in_o the_o proud_a man_n cause_n christ_n shall_v judge_v for_o the_o poor_a and_o reprove_v for_o the_o meek_a esa_n 11.31_o therefore_o take_v heed_n thou_o do_v not_o by_o thy_o thus_o judge_v condemn_v that_o which_o christ_n shall_v justify_v and_o justify_v that_o which_o christ_n shall_v condemn_v especial_o in_o thing_n that_o concern_v christ_n kingdom_n and_o godly_a people_n because_o christ_n himself_o be_v thereby_o either_o justify_v or_o condemn_v by_o they_o luk●_n 10.16_o act_n 9_o 4._o therefore_o that_o i_o will_v desire_v thou_o to_o observe_v in_o these_o few_o thing_n be_v this_o that_o jesus_n be_v christ_n though_o crown_v with_o thorn_n and_o in_o a_o robe_n of_o mockery_n mat._n 27.29_o that_o jacob_n be_v not_o esau_n though_o in_o his_o garment_n gen._n 27.15_o and_o that_o josephs_n coat_n be_v know_v to_o his_o father_n though_o dip_v in_o blood_n gen._n 37.33_o and_o again_o that_o antichrist_n be_v a_o wolf_n though_o in_o sheep_n clothing_n mat._n 7.15_o as_o much_o that_o beast_n when_o he_o appear_v like_o a_o lamb_n with_o two_o horn_n rev._n 13.11_o as_o when_o he_o have_v the_o seven_o head_n and_o ten_o horn_n v._o 1._o as_o false_a a_o apostle_n when_o he_o be_v transform_v into_o a_o angel_n of_o light_n or_o be_v like_o the_o apostle_n of_o christ_n 2_o cor._n 11.13.14_o as_o when_o he_o be_v that_o great_a red_a dragon_n stand_v before_o the_o woman_n ready_a to_o devour_v her_o seed_n rev._n 12.4_o if_o thou_o do_v ask_v i_o how_o thou_o shall_v then_o know_v he_o i_o answer_v by_o his_o work_n for_o whatsoever_o his_o shape_n be_v his_o business_n be_v all_o one_o for_o there_o be_v some_o deceiver_n which_o be_v not_o antichrist_n such_o be_v peter_n gal._n 2.12_o and_o the_o leader_n of_o the_o saint_n in_o the_o 1_o cor._n 1._o and_o several_a other_o through_o infirmity_n or_o

of_o deeeit_n but_o with_o their_o hand_n full_a of_o blood_n who_o make_v it_o their_o business_n to_o root_v up_o pull_v down_o and_o destroy_v for_o the_o business_n of_o christ_n minister_n be_v to_o plant_v to_o build_v and_o set_v up_o therefore_o say_v christ_n i_o come_v not_o to_o destroy_v man_n life_n but_o to_o save_v they_o it_o be_v the_o work_n of_o the_o thief_n john_n 10.10_o
