in_o the_o church_n the_o christian_a faith_n be_v already_o not_o only_o sufficient_o but_o abundant_o confirm_v by_o the_o miracle_n the_o infallible_a miracle_n of_o our_o saviour_n and_o the_o

cease_v so_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o ordinance_n thereof_o be_v at_o first_o confirm_v by_o the_o uncontrolled_a miracle_n of_o our_o saviour_n and_o the_o primitive_a christian_n as_o indeed_o it_o be_v meet_v that_o those_o who_o pretend_v a_o new_a revelation_n from_o god_n shall_v confirm_v it_o with_o a_o divine_a attestation_n but_o since_o the_o christian_a religion_n be_v now_o

to_o disprove_v this_o if_o it_o be_v false_a and_o feign_a and_o whether_o it_o be_v possible_a that_o whole_a city_n and_o country_n shall_v believe_v it_o and_o seal_v their_o belief_n thereof_o

of_o those_o time_n who_o heart_n be_v ready_a to_o burst_v with_o envy_n and_o malice_n at_o the_o success_n of_o the_o gospel_n never_o public_o object_v the_o forge_n or_o feign_v of_o those_o

they_o receive_v he_o they_o must_v renounce_v their_o other_o god_n yet_o the_o emperor_n persist_v in_o his_o opinion_n of_o jesus_n and_o give_v the_o christian_n great_a liberty_n all_o his_o

to_o convince_v the_o world_n by_o miracle_n that_o he_o be_v bear_v of_o a_o virgin_n conceive_v without_o a_o earthly_a father_n by_o divine_a inspiration_n that_o he_o cure_v all_o manner_n of_o

of_o the_o devil_n and_o to_o say_v this_o pardon_v the_o expression_n be_v no_o less_o than_o blasphemy_n it_o be_v in_o effect_n to_o say_v that_o the_o devil_n be_v god_n and_o to_o ascribe_v the_o
