lawful_a office_n and_o calling_n ordain_v by_o christ_n or_o in_o the_o unlawful_a office_n and_o calling_n devise_v by_o satan_n and_o use_v by_o this_o man_n of_o sin_n in_o his_o apostasy_n second_o how_o he_o shall_v usurp_v that_o authority_n to_o give_v law_n unto_o man_n conscience_n and_o to_o rule_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n as_o god_n which_o mr._n h._n note_v as_o the●_n

in_o their_o sin_n they_o receyv_v also_o of_o their_o plague_n second_o that_o 10._o our_o conscience_n be_v the_o temple_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n wherrupon_o it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o
