nixt_a answer_n to_o signify_v unto_o we_o why_o he_o call_v the_o kirk_n of_o scotland_n invisible_a see_v that_o the_o ground_n and_o the_o person_n inhabitant_n within_o the_o same_o be_v subject_a to_o the_o sense_n of_o all_o those_o that_o listen_v to_o look_v upone_o they_o yea_o the_o doctrine_n teach_v unto_o we_o be_v so_o patent_n that_o the_o verray_n enemy_n themselves_o be_v not_o forbid_v to_o hear_v and_o to_o judge_v of_o it_o and_o final_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o sacrament_n within_o our_o kirkis_n be_v so_o public_a that_o none_o just_o can_v compleane_n that_o they_o be_v either_o debar_v from_o hear_v or_o from_o sight_n and_o therefore_o howsoever_o it_o please_v the_o writer_n to_o delight_v himself_o in_o his_o owen_n vanity_n we_o fear_v not_o to_o affirm_v that_o the_o kirk_n of_o god_n within_o scotland_n this_o day_n be_v as_o visible_a as_o ever_o it_o be_v in_o jerusalem_fw-la âª_o after_o that_o christ_n jesus_n ascend_v to_o you_o â_o heavenes_n or_o as_o that_o it_o be_v visible_a in_o samarea_n after_o that_o it_o receive_v âhe_n euangell_n yea_o we_o will_v further_o affirm_v that_o you_o â_o true_a kirk_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v as_o visible_a yea_o &_o as_o beutifull_a in_o all_o her_o proper_a ornament_n this_o day_n within_o the_o realm_n of_o scotland_n as_o ever_o she_o be_v in_o corinthus_n galacia_n philippi_n yea_o or_o yet_o in_o rome_n itself_o what_o time_n that_o any_o of_o the_o apostle_n rewl_v they_o or_o that_o when_o they_o be_v salute_v be_v the_o apostle_n in_o his_o epistle_n for_o kirkis_n and_o this_o for_o the_o first_o head_n the_o answer_n to_o the_o secund_a can_v not_o be_v so_o short_a for_o his_o assertion_n aggreis_n so_o little_a with_o the_o place_n of_o the_o propheit_n that_o we_o stand_v great_o in_o doubt_n whether_o that_o ever_o y_fw-mi â_o writer_n have_v travel_v to_o understand_v the_o mind_n of_o the_o prophet_n his_o assertion_n be_v this_o of_o the_o kirk_n whereof_o the_o propheit_n speak_v it_o be_v say_v be_v he_o in_o the_o secund_a chap._n that_o it_o shall_v be_v manifest_a and_o visible_a through_o all_o the_o world_n the_o word_n of_o the_o propheit_n be_v these_o it_o shall_v be_v in_o the_o last_o day_n that_o the_o montane_n of_o the_o house_n of_o the_o lord_n â_o shall_v be_v prepare_v in_o the_o tope_o of_o the_o montane_n &_o shall_v be_v exalt_v above_o the_o hill_n and_o all_o nationes_fw-la shall_v flow_v unto_o it_o and_o many_o people_n shall_v go_v and_o say_v come_v let_v we_o go_v up_o unto_o the_o montane_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o the_o house_n of_o the_o god_n of_o jacob_n and_o he_o will_v teach_v we_o his_o way_n and_o we_o will_v walk_v in_o his_o path_n for_o the_o law_n shall_v go_v forth_o of_o zion_n and_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n from_o jerusalem_n and_o he_o shall_v judge_v among_o the_o nationes_fw-la and_o rebuke_v many_o people_n etc._n etc._n in_o these_o word_n of_o the_o prophet_n we_o find_v no_o such_o thing_n as_o the_o kirk_n shall_v be_v manifest_v and_o visible_a through_o all_o the_o world_n we_o acknawledge_v a_o promise_n of_o glad_a thing_n to_o come_v to_o be_v join_v to_o jerusalem_n &_o unto_o mont_fw-fr zion_n after_o the_o miserable_a destruction_n of_o the_o same_o we_o find_v the_o time_n appoint_v to_o wit_n the_o last_o day_n but_o that_o the_o promise_n may_v be_v the_o better_o try_v we_o must_v know_v of_o the_o writer_n when_o these_o last_o dayis_o begin_n and_o when_o they_o shall_v be_v compleit_v we_o must_v further_o know_v if_o there_o be_v any_o one_o certane_v place_n appoint_v âª_o in_o the_o which_o it_o be_v say_v y_fw-fr â_o the_o kirk_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v visible_a and_o manifest_a in_o all_o age_n these_o two_o head_n be_v considder_v it_o shall_v be_v moir_n easy_a to_o iudgâ_n of_o the_o assertioun_n of_o the_o writer_n and_o how_o it_o aggreis_n with_o the_o mind_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o first_o we_o think_v that_o the_o writer_n will_v not_o deny_v but_o the_o last_o day_n whereof_o the_o prophet_n speak_v begin_v long_a befoir_n y_o â_o ever_o the_o euangell_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v know_v or_o publictlie_o receive_v in_o rome_n nota._n to_o wit_n at_o the_o appear_v of_o jesus_n christ_n in_o the_o flesh_n when_o that_o he_o reveal_v unto_o the_o world_n the_o hole_n will_v of_o his_o father_n for_o so_o be_v we_o teach_v be_v the_o apostle_n say_v god_n in_o old_a time_n speak_v unto_o our_o father_n in_o diverse_a manner_n be_v the_o prophet_n 1._o in_o y_o â_o last_o dayis_o he_o have_v speak_v to_o we_o be_v his_o soon_o etc._n etc._n aâd_v the_o apostle_n peter_n in_o that_o his_o most_o notable_a sermone_fw-la make_v to_o jerusalem_n the_o day_n of_o pentecost_n â_o affirm_v that_o the_o prophâsie_n of_o joell_n make_v as_o concern_v the_o pour_v forth_o of_o god_n grace_n upon_o all_o flesh_n in_o the_o last_o day_n be_v even_o then_o compleit_n when_o that_o the_o holy_a spreit_n descend_v down_o upon_o those_o that_o beleve_v so_o they_o we_o have_v get_v the_o last_o day_n to_o have_v begin_v with_o jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v the_o glory_n of_o the_o secund_a temple_n when_o think_v we_o that_o they_o end_v if_o the_o writer_n will_v say_v when_o rome_n receive_v the_o euangel_n then_o be_v the_o accomplishment_n of_o the_o last_o day_n as_o man_n just_o may_v doubt_v thereof_o so_o will_v y_fw-mi â_o apostle_n planelie_o deny_v say_v the_o spreit_n speak_v evidentlie_o that_o in_o the_o last_o time_n some_o shall_v depart_v from_o the_o faith_n ãâ¦ã_o etc._n etc._n whereof_o we_o may_v gather_v that_o the_o apostle_n appoint_v the_o lâst_o time_n âª_o to_o continue_v long_o then_z y_z â_o the_o euamgell_n be_v ãâã_d public_o preach_v to_o wit_n till_o that_o man_n shall_v begin_v to_o fall_v from_o the_o faith_n and_o give_v ear_n to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o ãâã_d yea_o if_o you_o will_v search_v tâe_v scripture_n we_o shâll_v ãâã_d thât_v the_o last_o dâves_v continue_v from_o the_o ãâã_d appear_v of_o jesâs_n christ_n in_o flesh_n nota._n unto_o âis_n lâst_o return_v unto_o judge_n ãâ¦ã_o so_o y_o â_o the_o ãâã_d day_n do_v not_o only_o include_v the_o first_o ãâã_d of_o the_o euangell_n but_o also_o the_o defectioun_n from_o it_o yea_o and_o the_o restitution_n of_o it_o again_o unto_o the_o world_n be_v the_o brightness_n whereof_o that_o man_n of_o sin_n shall_v be_v reveal_v &_o destroy_v whereof_o we_o conclude_v that_o if_o y_fw-mi â_o last_o day_n do_v yet_o continue_v whereof_o the_o prophet_n make_v mention_v the_o thing_n êmyse_v to_o be_v perform_v in_o they_o be_v not_o yet_o altogether_o compleit_a but_o be_v in_o their_o progress_n and_o shall_v so_o procead_a till_o that_o all_o be_v finish_v that_o be_v foirspoken_v be_v the_o holy_a prophet_n and_o apostle_n of_o jesus_n christ._n and_o so_o may_v jesus_n christ_n this_o day_n be_v work_v in_o scotland_n albeit_o that_o papist_n rage_n against_o his_o euangell_n as_o in_o those_o day_n he_o wrought_v in_o jerusalem_n when_o the_o preaste_n &_o the_o hole_n visible_a kirk_n for_o you_o â_o most_o part_n rage_v against_o the_o same_o but_o now_o to_o the_o secund_a head_n we_o will_v know_v if_o the_o writer_n can_v appoint_v unto_o we_o any_o one_o certane_v place_n where_o this_o holy_a montane_n of_o god_n be_v promise_v to_o remane_fw-la manifest_o and_o visible_a for_o this_o we_o make_v know_v to_o the_o hole_n world_n that_o for_o the_o lufe_fw-fr we_o bear_v to_o the_o building_n and_o repair_v of_o god_n holy_a house_n we_o have_v endanger_v life_n and_o all_o thing_n temporal_a and_o therefore_o if_o the_o writer_n can_v appoint_v unto_o we_o a_o certane_v place_n whereunto_o god_n his_fw-mi maid_n promise_n we_o shall_v every_o one_o exhort_v a_o other_o with_o all_o diligence_n to_o go_v up_o thereunto_o but_o if_o he_o can_v appoint_v none_o have_v great_a assurance_n be_v god_n mouth_n moir_n then_o a_o other_o then_o will_v we_o cheritabillie_o desire_v he_o to_o desist_v from_o taunt_a &_o mockage_n of_o so_o notable_a work_n of_o god_n as_o he_o of_o late_a year_n his_fw-mi shawen_fw-mi in_o mo_z realm_n than_o one_o our_o master_n christ_n jesus_n apointe_v we_o to_o no_o one_o certane_v place_n where_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v assure_v of_o his_o presence_n but_o rather_o forbid_v the_o obseruatioun_n of_o all_o place_n he_o send_v we_o to_o his_o owen_n spiritual_a presence_n say_v wheresoever_o two_o or_o three_o be_v gather_v in_o my_o name_n there_o be_o i_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o they_o and_o in_o a_o other_o place_n ââ_o behold_v i_o be_o with_o you_o to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n 28._o we_o be_v ground_v upon_o these_o promise_n have_v
