be_v the_o true_a and_o right_a rule_n whereby_o god_n people_n ought_v to_o walk_v and_o by_o so_o do_v they_o become_v indeed_o the_o true_a church_n of_o christ_n to_o who_o he_o have_v promise_v

blaspheme_v the_o tabernacle_n of_o god_n as_o be_v show_v before_o upon_o the_o six_o verse_n further_o whereas_o the_o apostle_n do_v ordain_v divers_a elder_n in_o every_o church_n to_o who_o they_o give_v charge_n to_o feed_v the_o flock_n of_o christ_n whereof_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v make_v they_o overseer_n on_o the_o contrary_a these_o prelate_n in_o stead_n of_o elder_n to_o

their_o mouth_n and_o reproach_v the_o almighty_a but_o he_o who_o sit_v in_o the_o heaven_n laugh_v they_o to_o scorn_v and_o will_v vex_v they_o in_o his_o sore_a displeasure_n if_o they_o repent_v not_o by_o these_o few_o example_n of_o their_o wicked_a practice_n i_o have_v brief_o show_v that_o this_o church_n of_o england_n still_o remain_v under_o the_o bondage_n of_o antichrist_n and_o be_v rule_v and_o govern_v by_o the_o image_n of_o the_o beast_n mention_v in_o this_o 13_o chapter_n which_o usurp_v that_o power_n which_o be_v only_o proper_a to_o christ_n jesus_n and_o whereas_o it_o be_v object_v in_o the_o behalf_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n that_o it_o be_v fall_v and_o separate_v from_o babylon_n the_o universal_a church_n of_o rome_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v the_o true_a church_n of_o christ_n and_o needs_o no_o other_o separation_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o true_a it_o be_v that_o that_o great_a city_n be_v now_o divide_v into_o three_o part_n as_o be_v foreshow_v in_o the_o 16_o chapter_n of_o this_o pprophecy_n and_o the_o city_n of_o the_o nation_n that_o be_v the_o nationall_n church_n whereof_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v one_o be_v fall_v from_o it_o but_o this_o be_v no_o argument_n that_o therefore_o they_o be_v the_o true_a church_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v divide_v from_o rome_n unless_o they_o be_v unite_v and_o join_v to_o christ_n and_o frame_v and_o build_v together_o according_a to_o the_o pattern_n prescribe_v in_o his_o testament_n it_o be_v indeed_o a_o argument_n that_o this_o kingdom_n shall_v not_o long_o stand_v as_o our_o saviour_n christ_n teach_v mat._n 12._o every_o kingdom_n divide_v against_o itself_o be_v bring_v to_o desolation_n and_o every_o city_n or_o house_n divide_v against_o itself_o shall_v not_o stand_v and_o if_o satan_n cast_v out_o satan_n he_o be_v divide_v against_o himself_o how_o shall_v then_o his_o kingdom_n stand_v thus_o by_o the_o division_n of_o this_o great_a city_n god_n people_n may_v receive_v comfort_n and_o rejoice_v in_o assure_a hope_n that_o the_o fall_n and_o destruction_n of_o babylon_n be_v near_o and_o that_o the_o lord_n will_v short_o be_v avenge_v of_o their_o iniquity_n which_o shall_v teach_v we_o to_o come_v out_o from_o among_o they_o that_o we_o partake_v not_o of_o their_o sin_n and_o so_o receive_v of_o their_o plague_n and_o to_o have_v no_o fellowship_n with_o their_o unfruitful_a work_n of_o darkness_n but_o rather_o reprove_v they_o and_o steadfast_o resist_v and_o fight_v against_o they_o so_o shall_v we_o receive_v the_o crown_n of_o righteousness_n which_o god_n the_o righteous_a judge_n shall_v give_v at_o his_o appear_v to_o who_o be_v glory_n and_o dominion_n for_o ever_o and_o ever_o amen_n revel_v 20.4_o

image_n neither_o have_v receive_v his_o mark_n upon_o their_o forehead_n or_o in_o their_o hand_n and_o they_o live_v and_o reign_v with_o christ_n a_o thousand_o year_n finis_fw-la
