v_o 25._o to_o 29._o not_o to_o mention_v his_o reason_v v_o 27._o from_o their_o child_n practice_n the_o principal_a argument_n be_v thus_o draw_v ab_fw-la impossibili_fw-la satan_n must_v be_v a_o designing_o wilful_a destroyer_n of_o his_o own_o kingdom_n if_o christ_n do_v cast_v out_o devil_n under_o his_o conduct_n and_o by_o his_o virtue_n which_o be_v a_o thing_n of_o which_o satan_n who_o be_v such_o a_o self-lover_n and_o have_v so_o great_a a_o reach_n can_v not_o possible_o be_v guilty_a no_o the_o devil_n be_v too_o wise_a not_o to_o understand_v his_o interest_n better_o than_o thus_o especial_o in_o a_o case_n so_o obvious_a and_o so_o near_o concern_v himself_o our_o saviour_n to_o clear_v the_o force_n of_o this_o argument_n declare_v 1._o that_o god_n and_o the_o devil_n have_v two_o very_a distinct_a kingdom_n which_o be_v constitute_v rule_v support_v and_o propagate_v by_o way_n and_o in_o a_o manner_n extreme_o different_a v._o 26._o if_o satan_n cast_v out_o satan_n he_o be_v divide_v against_o himself_o how_o then_o can_v his_o kingdom_n stand_v here_o be_v one_o kingdom_n viz._n the_o devil_n v_o 28._o but_o if_o i_o cast_v out_o devil_n by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n than_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n be_v come_v among_o you_o this_o be_v the_o other_o kingdom_n viz._n god_n kingdom_n 2._o there_o be_v in_o this_o world_n so_o fix_v a_o war_n between_o these_o two_o kingdom_n that_o the_o one_o grow_v upon_o the_o other_o ruin_n 3._o the_o way_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o fendency_n of_o his_o doctrine_n and_o scope_n of_o all_o his_o attempt_n be_v utter_o to_o overthrow_v satan_n kingdom_n and_o advance_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n 4._o satan_n kingdom_n be_v effectual_o weaken_v and_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n advance_v and_o enlarge_v by_o all_o that_o power_n which_o christ_n have_v put_v forth_o in_o this_o and_o all_o other_o miracle_n 5._o whatever_o christ_n do_v contribute_v by_o his_o exerted_a power_n to_o the_o destruction_n of_o satan_n kingdom_n be_v in_o a_o way_n of_o force_n and_o violence_n upon_o satan_n and_o not_o with_o his_o consent_n all_o these_o thing_n be_v imply_v in_o v_o 26._o 28._o and_o most_o express_o v_o 29._o or_o else_o how_o can_v one_o enter_v into_o a_o strong_a man_n house_n and_o spoil_v his_o good_n except_o he_o first_o bind_v the_o strong_a man_n and_o then_o he_o will_v spoil_v his_o house_n the_o sum_n of_o christ_n plea_n be_v this_o it_o be_v impossible_a the_o devil_n who_o be_v a_o be_v so_o sagacious_a and_o experience_a shall_v witting_o help_v i_o to_o offer_v violence_n to_o himself_o and_o thereby_o enable_v i_o to_o force_v he_o out_o of_o his_o throne_n rescue_v the_o prey_n out_o of_o his_o jaw_n pluck_v down_o what_o he_o have_v so_o studious_o erect_v defeat_v his_o chief_a design_n and_o advance_v god_n throne_n and_o interest_n upon_o the_o obstruct_v whereof_o satan_n be_v constant_o and_o malicious_o intent_n these_o be_v thing_n so_o inconsistent_a that_o without_o inveterate_a malice_n they_o can_v be_v surmise_a nay_o i_o be_o so_o far_o from_o work_v miracle_n by_o the_o power_n of_o beelzebub_n that_o it_o must_v be_v evident_a to_o every_o unprejudiced_a person_n they_o be_v wrought_v by_o the_o power_n of_o god_n in_o who_o interest_n i_o be_o so_o entire_o engage_v and_o which_o i_o hereby_o subserve_v have_v give_v you_o this_o account_n of_o the_o matter_n our_o bless_a saviour_n be_v treat_v of_o i_o shall_v consider_v the_o text_n he_o that_o be_v not_o with_o i_o be_v against_o i_o and_o he_o that_o gather_v not_o with_o i_o scatter_v abroad_o herein_o several_a thing_n seem_v design_v 1._o a_o enforcement_n of_o the_o forecited_a argument_n q._n d._n satan_n be_v so_o far_o from_o concur_v with_o i_o in_o my_o design_n or_o yield_v i_o assistance_n by_o his_o power_n that_o he_o will_v employ_v his_o skill_n to_o support_v what_o i_o be_o cast_v down_o he_o will_v neglect_v no_o method_n to_o pull_v down_o what_o i_o be_o build_v up_o and_o instead_o of_o favour_v my_o attempt_n his_o power_n will_v be_v engage_v against_o it_o the_o utmost_a strength_n possess_v by_o he_o he_o will_v be_v sure_a to_o exert_v to_o obstruct_v man_n faith_n in_o i_o and_o not_o to_o induce_v they_o to_o believe_v he_o will_v prove_v i_o a_o impostor_n instead_o of_o attest_v my_o commission_n who_o then_o can_v surmise_v that_o my_o miracle_n be_v wrought_v by_o any_o virtue_n derive_v from_o he_o see_v he_o must_v be_v against_o i_o if_o he_o be_v not_o for_o i_o 2._o another_o thing_n design_v be_v to_o assert_v that_o the_o lord_n jesus_n be_v the_o head_n of_o god_n kingdom_n in_o its_o present_a oeconomy_n this_o be_v evidence_v by_o the_o alteration_n of_o
