2._o by_o the_o ministry_n of_o his_o word_n and_o ordinance_n but_o in_o heaven_n he_o rule_v immediate_o than_o no_o more_o word_n &_o mean_n but_o christ_n fill_v the_o soul_n full_o and_o then_o he_o rule_v glorious_o when_o the_o understand_a will_n and_o affection_n be_v full_a of_o christ_n and_o be_v full_o and_o whole_o subject_a to_o he_o here_o in_o the_o valley_n of_o tear_n we_o meet_v with_o many_o rub_n and_o opposition_n but_o then_o christ_n shall_v shine_v immediate_o forth_o in_o all_o his_o ordinance_n we_o seek_v a_o christ_n now_o but_o then_o we_o shall_v full_o

to-come_a when_o a_o king_n rule_v in_o a_o place_n where_o he_o do_v not_o before_o so_o it_o be_v here_o let_v all_o the_o people_n praise_v thou_o say_v david_n he_o desire_v not_o that_o some_o

and_o spread_v itself_o where_o ever_o it_o come_v we_o desire_v the_o king_n governmet_a shall_v enlarge_v the_o territory_n more_o and_o more_o so_o we_o desire_v that_o not_o only_a christ_n shall_v be_v reveal_v but_o that_o more_o and_o more_o may_v be_v gather_v that_o god_n may_v take_v in_o every_o where_o and_o that_o every_o knee_n may_v bow_v to_o christ_n and_o lick_v the_o

the_o house_n of_o david_n grow_v strong_a &_o strong_a but_o the_o house_n of_o saul_n grow_v weak_a and_o weak_a so_o when_o christ_n set_v up_o his_o candlestick_n that_o the_o seed_n that_o be_v

that_o his_o gospel_n may_v spread_v and_o be_v strong_a and_o these_o day_n of_o sin_n may_v be_v waste_v and_o that_o he_o may_v come_v in_o the_o cloud_n rev._n 22._o and_o then_o come_v lord_n
