so_o i_o will_v first_o show_v it_o you_o by_o the_o infallible_a prophecy_n of_o the_o prophet_n of_o god_n 2._o isa_n 2._o v._n 2._o and_o first_o of_o isaiah_n and_o it_o shall_v come_v to_o pass_v in_o the_o last_o day_n that_o the_o mountain_n of_o the_o lord_n house_n shall_v be_v establish_v in_o the_o top_n of_o the_o mountain_n church_n christ_n church_n and_o shall_v be_v exalt_v above_o the_o hill_n and_o all_o nation_n shall_v flow_v unto_o it_o so_o here_o be_v one_o true_a testimony_n that_o the_o catholic_n church_n shall_v be_v spread_v in_o all_o part_n and_o all_o nation_n shall_v partake_v of_o her_o holy_a doctrine_n and_o not_o to_o lie_v hide_v in_o a_o corner_n as_o in_o one_o kingdom_n or_o city_n or_o congregation_n or_o this_o man_n church_n or_o that_o man_n church_n as_o all_o sectary_n do_v by_o which_o i_o shall_v plain_o prove_v they_o can_v be_v any_o thing_n like_o god_n church_n and_o again_o the_o same_o prophet_n say_v speak_v of_o the_o many_o

manner_n which_o quality_n agree_v to_o no_o other_o church_n but_o the_o roman_n catholic_n the_o same_o prophet_n declare_v further_a 23._o chap._n 49._o v._n 22_o 23._o that_o king_n shall_v be_v thy_o nurse_n father_n and_o queen_n thy_o nurse_v mother_n and_o to_o show_v the_o great_a reverence_n they_o shall_v bear_v to_o this_o church_n of_o god_n say_v he_o they_o shall_v bow_v down_o to_o thou_o with_o their_o face_n towards_o the_o earth_n and_o lick_v up_o the_o dust_n of_o thy_o foot_n now_o i_o will_v demand_v what_o church_n or_o sect_n in_o the_o christian_a world_n that_o have_v king_n and_o queen_n for_o their_o nurse_n father_n and_o mother_n but_o the_o roman_n catholic_n and_o so_o by_o consequence_n can_v be_v the_o church_n of_o god_n but_o be_v as_o wander_a

prophet_n speak_v how_o large_o god_n church_n shall_v be_v stretch_v forth_o under_o the_o gospel_n 3._o isa_n 54._o v._n 2_o 3._o say_v enlarge_v the_o place_n of_o thy_o tent_n let_v they_o

on_o the_o left_a and_o thy_o seed_n shall_v inherit_v the_o gentile_n and_o make_v the_o desolate_a city_n to_o be_v inhabit_v now_o let_v the_o understand_a reader_n judge_n where_o this_o prophecy_n be_v fulfil_v in_o protestant_n and_o sectaty_n or_o in_o the_o roman_a church_n which_o be_v thus_o stretch_v out_o and_o have_v her_o member_n in_o the_o west-indies_n and_o east-indies_n in_o china_n in_o tartary_n in_o egypt_n in_o assyria_n in_o africa_n and_o asia_n in_o turkey_n and_o all_o part_n of_o europe_n as_o the_o empire_n of_o germany_n the_o kingdom_n of_o spain_n

can_v say_v beside_o and_o so_o be_v very_o far_o off_o from_o fulfil_v this_o prophecy_n and_o in_o another_o place_n he_o say_v 18._o chap._n 66._o v._n 18._o and_o it_o shall_v come_v to_o pass_v that_o i_o will_v gather_v all_o nation_n and_o tongue_n and_o they_o shall_v come_v and_o see_v my_o glory_n thus_o have_v this_o holy_a prophet_n by_o god_n inspiration_n foretell_v clear_o the_o

the_o trouble_v they_o be_v to_o suffer_v for_o his_o name_n before_o king_n and_o judge_n 10._o ma_fw-fr k_o 13._o v._n 10._o but_o say_v he_o the_o gospel_n must_v first_o be_v publish_v among_o all_o nation_n which_o plain_o show_v that_o god_n church_n must_v be_v catholic_n or_o universal_a and_o i_o will_v fain_o learn_v from_o our_o adversary_n what_o church_n have_v take_v the_o pain_n to_o publish_v the_o gospel_n to_o all_o nation_n and_o so_o fulfil_v these_o prophecy_n but_o the_o pastor_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n for_o this_o may_v be_v urge_v to_o the_o shame_n of_o

send_v to_o convert_v the_o world_n and_o yet_o never_o intend_v to_o go_v about_o any_o such_o matter_n it_o be_v a_o wonderful_a thing_n to_o consider_v that_o man_n that_o read_v the_o bible_n and_o all_o these_o prophecy_n can_v be_v so_o ignorant_a to_o think_v that_o god_n church_n shall_v be_v pin_v up_o in_o so_o narrow_a limit_n as_o any_o one_o sect_n or_o congregation_n do_v

this_o do_v i_o say_v to_o have_v his_o church_n thrust_v up_o in_o a_o corner_n and_o to_o be_v no_o where_o else_o how_o then_o shall_v all_o nation_n come_v to_o know_v god_n how_o shall_v they_o
