thing_n represent_v or_o the_o figure_n of_o the_o thing_n call_v by_o the_o name_n of_o the_o thing_n figure_v and_o hence_o we_o may_v see_v although_o i_o can_v say_v much_o more_o of_o thing_n of_o this_o nature_n that_o both_o christ_n word_n and_o also_o john_n be_v true_a christ_n call_v john_n elias_n it_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v john_n be_v a_o figure_n of_o elias_n or_o represent_v elias_n not_o only_o come_v in_o the_o power_n and_o spirit_n of_o elias_n but_o he_o be_v a_o forerunner_n of_o christ_n in_o his_o first_o day_n to_o persuade_v the_o jew_n to_o obedience_n to_o christ_n as_o elias_n be_v to_o be_v a_o forerunner_n of_o christ_n in_o his_o second_o day_n namely_o the_o great_a &_o dreadful_a day_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o to_o persuade_v and_o establish_v the_o jew_n in_o their_o wait_n for_o their_o king_n jesus_n and_o their_o obedience_n unto_o he_o and_o second_o john_n word_n be_v true_a also_o where_o he_o say_v i_o be_o not_o elias_n that_o be_v he_o be_v not_o that_o elias_n real_o or_o simple_o understand_v that_o they_o look_v for_o although_o he_o be_v a_o type_n of_o he_o and_o may_v by_o christ_n be_v call_v by_o his_o

like_a thing_n that_o borrow_v their_o name_n from_o the_o thing_n which_o they_o represent_v and_o thus_o much_o brief_o by_o way_n of_o answer_n to_o the_o objection_n and_o the_o reconciliation_n of_o the_o word_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o word_n of_o john_n which_o seem_o contradict_v each_o other_o but_o be_v understand_v according_o as_o they_o be_v speak_v they_o agree_v together_o so_o then_o still_o it_o remain_v that_o elias_n be_v to_o come_v before_o the_o great_a and_o dreadful_a day_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o that_o it_o be_v to_o be_v elias_n real_o so_o understand_v i_o give_v these_o reason_n which_o before_o have_v be_v mention_v in_o general_n in_o a_o short_a and_o brief_a method_n first_o john_n the_o baptist_n be_v not_o the_o real_a elias_n as_o i_o think_v all_o will_v confess_v for_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o zacharias_n and_o zacharias_n have_v a_o commandment_n from_o the_o lord_n to_o call_v the_o name_n of_o his_o son_n not_o elias_n but_o john_n luke_n 1.13_o but_o elias_n be_v to_o come_v as_o have_v be_v prove_v before_o the_o great_a and_o dreadful_a day_n of_o the_o lord_n second_o john_n the_o baptist_n be_v not_o the_o forerunner_n simple_o so_o consider_v of_o the_o great_a and_o dreadful_a day_n of_o the_o lord_n for_o that_o day_n that_o john_n be_v a_o forerunner_n of_o be_v the_o day_n of_o christ_n suffering_n and_o not_o the_o day_n of_o dread_n unto_o his_o enemy_n so_o as_o it_o will_v be_v in_o that_o day_n that_o the_o chief_a captain_n and_o great_a and_o mighty_a man_n of_o the_o earth_n shall_v call_v to_o the_o mountain_n to_o fall_v upon_o they_o and_o hide_v they_o from_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o lamb_n for_o the_o great_a day_n of_o his_o wrath_n be_v come_v say_v they_o and_o who_o can_v stand_v but_o elias_n be_v to_o be_v the_o forerunner_n of_o the_o great_a and_o dreadful_a day_n of_o the_o lord_n three_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o father_n shall_v be_v turn_v unto_o the_o child_n and_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o child_n to_o their_o father_n in_o that_o day_n which_o yet_o be_v at_o a_o distance_n for_o christ_n sake_n so_o that_o the_o parent_n hate_v their_o child_n and_o child_n shall_v betray_v their_o parent_n to_o death_n for_o christ_n sake_n although_o it_o be_v not_o deny_v that_o john_n in_o a_o measure_n be_v a_o type_n of_o elias_n in_o that_o thing_n according_a to_o the_o say_n of_o the_o angel_n to_o zacharias_n luke_n 1.13_o 18._o for_o all_o man_n do_v account_n john_n a_o prophet_n and_o he_o prepare_v the_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n all_o judah_n and_o jerusalem_n come_v out_o to_o he_o to_o be_v baptise_a of_o he_o in_o jordan_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o afterward_o be_v at_o great_a variance_n about_o christ_n some_o say_n that_o he_o be_v a_o good_a man_n and_o other_o saying_n nay_o he_o have_v a_o devil_n and_o be_v mad_a and_o after_o that_o lay_v violent_a hand_n on_o he_o and_o crucify_v he_o and_o the_o distance_n be_v so_o great_a that_o many_o family_n even_o parent_n and_o their_o child_n have_v be_v and_o be_v at_o a_o distance_n about_o he_o and_o so_o will_v be_v until_o that_o day_n of_o the_o come_n of_o elias_n and_o then_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o father_n shall_v thorough_o be_v turn_v unto_o their_o child_n and_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o child_n unto_o their_o father_n and_o envy_n shall_v depart_v from_o ephraim_n as_o before_o say_v which_o bring_v i_o to_o the_o four_o &_o last_o reason_n to_o prove_v elias_n one_o of_o the_o two_o witness_n which_o be_v four_o because_o the_o same_o judgement_n which_o be_v bring_v upon_o the_o earth_n by_o elias_n when_o he_o be_v upon_o earth_n shall_v be_v again_o bring_v upon_o the_o earth_n by_o the_o two_o prophet_n or_o witness_n revel_v 11.6_o compare_v with_o james_n 5.17_o 1_o king_n 17.1_o which_o bespeak_v such_o a_o thing_n as_o though_o elijah_n shall_v be_v one_o of_o those_o two_o witness_n if_o we_o also_o consider_v that_o these_o witness_n must_v be_v slay_v and_o therefore_o must_v be_v such_o as_o never_o yet_o have_v taste_v of_o death_n because_o it_o can_v be_v rational_o imagine_v that_o those_o prophet_n which_o be_v so_o to_o die_v be_v any_o of_o the_o prophet_n which_o be_v dead_a and_o shall_v be_v raise_v from_o the_o dead_a and_o then_o be_v slay_v again_o i_o speak_v this_o because_o some_o have_v suppose_v moses_n to_o be_v one_o of_o these_o two_o prophet_n which_o in_o reason_n can_v be_v so_o neither_o do_v i_o find_v any_o scripture_n warrant_v any_o such_o thing_n neither_o do_v i_o find_v any_o where_n in_o my_o most_o serious_a search_n of_o the_o scripture_n of_o any_o extraordinary_a prophet_n namely_o such_o prophet_n as_o be_v mention_v in_o revel_v 11._o to_o be_v bear_v in_o the_o last_o day_n when_o this_o pprophecy_n be_v to_o be_v accomplish_v but_o elijah_n never_o yet_o be_v slay_v but_o be_v catch_v up_o to_o heaven_n in_o a_o whirlwind_n and_o so_o at_o present_a i_o shall_v leave_v this_o and_o pass_v to_o the_o next_o thing_n which_o be_v to_o show_v my_o opinion_n who_o it_o be_v that_o be_v the_o other_o prophet_n because_o the_o text_n say_v that_o there_o be_v to_o be_v two_o prophet_n or_o two_o witness_n which_o be_v to_o prophesy_v in_o sackcloth_n and_o as_o to_o the_o other_o prophet_n i_o shall_v be_v very_o brief_a because_o i_o do_v not_o find_v any_o such_o objection_n as_o i_o meet_v with_o against_o the_o fore_n mention_v prophet_n namely_o against_o elias_n and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v brief_o show_v my_o opinion_n and_o leave_v it_o second_o as_o for_o the_o other_o prophet_n which_o be_v to_o be_v a_o fellow_n companion_n with_o elias_n i_o understand_v to_o be_v john_n that_o holy_a apostle_n the_o belove_a disciple_n of_o jesus_n which_o lean_v upon_o his_o breast_n at_o supper_n for_o as_o elias_n be_v a_o man_n high_o in_o the_o love_n and_o favour_n of_o god_n although_o hate_v by_o man_n and_o persecute_v and_o banish_v even_o so_o be_v john_n dear_o belove_v of_o god_n although_o hate_v and_o banish_v from_o man_n yet_o the_o lord_n jesus_n deal_v with_o he_o by_o manifest_v of_o himself_o to_o he_o as_o god_n do_v to_o elijah_n when_o he_o flee_v from_o the_o face_n of_o ahab_n and_o jessibel_n 1_o king_n 17._o and_o chap._n 18._o but_o be_v in_o have_v i_o pass_v many_o thing_n which_o otherwise_o be_v necessary_a to_o be_v speak_v by_o way_n of_o parallel_n and_o come_v to_o show_v the_o reason_n why_o i_o understand_v john_n to_o be_v one_o of_o the_o two_o witness_n speak_v of_o in_o revelation_n the_o 11._o which_o be_v these_o first_o because_o when_o john_n write_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v suppose_v to_o be_v thirty_o year_n after_o the_o ascension_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v then_o report_v among_o the_o disciple_n that_o john_n be_v not_o to_o die_v john_n 21.23_o and_o yet_o at_o that_o time_n they_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o teach_v they_o but_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v object_v and_o say_v that_o john_n say_v not_o that_o christ_n say_v he_o shall_v not_o die_v but_o what_o if_o i_o will_v that_o he_o tarry_v till_o i_o come_v what_o be_v that_o to_o thou_o fellow_n thou_o i_o signify_v peter_n death_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v and_o say_v that_o it_o be_v true_a

if_o any_o
man_n preach_v any_o other_o gospel_n unto_o you_o than_o that_o you_o have_v receive_v let_v he_o be_v accurse_v from_o which_o word_n we_o plain_o see_v it_o be_v of_o a_o very_a dangerous_a

that_o all_o christ_n law_n statute_n and_o ordinance_n be_v perpetuate_v and_o to_o remain_v because_o when_o christ_n leave_v the_o world_n he_o put_v his_o house_n in_o order_n and_o appoint_v to_o
