say_v again_o say_v this_o popish_a book_n ask_v this_o question_n be_v the_o church_n visible_a he_o answer_v she_o be_v and_o must_v be_v visible_a at_o all_o time_n as_o consist_v of_o a_o

true_a church_n the_o spouse_n of_o christ_n and_o not_o the_o adulterer_n the_o popedom_n be_v visible_a and_o know_v to_o god_n and_o its_o own_o member_n but_o invisible_a to_o the_o world_n as_o such_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v 1_o john_n 3.1_o behold_v what_o manner_n of_o love_n the_o father_n have_v bestow_v on_o we_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v call_v the_o son_n of_o god_n therefore_o the_o world_n know_v we_o not_o because_o it_o know_v not_o he_o to_o wit_n christ_n jesus_n their_o head_n though_o he_o do_v appear_v in_o flesh_n and_o so_o the_o flesh_n be_v the_o veil_n by_o which_o he_o be_v hide_v from_o the_o world_n then_o as_o the_o flesh_n be_v the_o veil_n by_o which_o the_o true_a saint_n be_v hide_v from_o the_o world_n now_o and_o this_o make_v manifest_a that_o that_o scripture_n ephes_n 4.11_o 12._o make_v nothing_o for_o his_o purpose_n at_o all_o and_o as_o for_o that_o other_o scripture_n mat._n 5.14_o 15._o where_o it_o be_v say_v you_o be_v the_o light_n of_o the_o world_n a_o city_n set_v on_o a_o hill_n which_o speak_v of_o they_o that_o be_v true_o so_o and_o keep_v their_o savour_n and_o not_o at_o all_o for_o the_o pope_n or_o his_o great_a army_n of_o apostate_n nor_o of_o any_o other_o who_o have_v the_o name_n only_o of_o christian_n but_o have_v lose_v the_o good_a savour_n and_o so_o want_v the_o true_a christian_a life_n and_o so_o have_v put_v the_o candle_n under_o a_o bushel_n though_o they_o may_v have_v a_o show_n in_o outward_a observance_n of_o their_o own_o devise_v of_o a_o church_n yet_o still_o want_v the_o true_a heavenly_a savoury_a life_n i_o say_v they_o be_v to_o be_v tread_v under_o foot_n of_o man_n as_o unsavoury_a salt_n and_o so_o this_o scripture_n make_v nothing_o for_o they_o neither_o but_o some_o may_v say_v though_o this_o make_v not_o for_o the_o pope_n or_o any_o false_a church_n yet_o do_v it_o not_o make_v something_o for_o the_o visibility_n of_o the_o true_a church_n i_o answer_v no_o not_o in_o the_o popish_a or_o worldly_a sense_n at_o all_o for_o though_o the_o good_a life_n of_o the_o true_a church_n be_v very_o savoury_a to_o that_o of_o god_n in_o every_o man_n and_o the_o same_o holy_a life_n shine_v before_o man_n be_v of_o great_a service_n to_o man_n and_o glory_n to_o god_n and_o so_o because_o they_o separate_v from_o the_o world_n not_o only_o in_o the_o inward_a but_o outward_o also_o therefore_o they_o can_v be_v hide_v if_o they_o do_v any_o thing_n contrary_a to_o their_o holy_a profession_n and_o separation_n yet_o still_o the_o apostle_n 1_o john_n 3.1_o stand_v firm_a in_o his_o testimony_n to_o which_o my_o spirit_n agree_v therefore_o the_o world_n know_v we_o not_o because_o they_o know_v not_o christ_n for_o how_o can_v the_o world_n who_o be_v in_o the_o false_a life_n and_o religion_n and_o yet_o think_v it_o be_v true_a know_v or_o believe_v they_o to_o be_v the_o true_a church_n of_o christ_n who_o separate_v from_o they_o and_o bear_v witness_n against_o they_o and_o this_o far_a appear_v if_o we_o consider_v how_o the_o true_a church_n as_o christ_n himself_o be_v ever_o hate_v and_o persecute_v of_o the_o world_n rev._n 12.6_o etc._n etc._n and_o many_o other_o scripture_n and_o wherefore_o be_v all_o this_o enmity_n but_o even_o because_o the_o world_n know_v they_o not_o as_o they_o be_v but_o even_o account_v they_o through_o their_o great_a ignorance_n as_o the_o off-scouring_n of_o all_o thing_n as_o it_o be_v report_v also_o concern_v the_o christian_n in_o the_o heathenish_a persecution_n after_o christ_n sejanus_n vir_fw-la bone_fw-la sed_fw-la est_fw-la christianus_n such_o a_o one_o be_v a_o good_a man_n but_o he_o be_v a_o christian_n so_o among_o and_o by_o you_o call_v papist_n such_o a_o one_o be_v a_o good_a man_n but_o he_o be_v a_o protestant_n and_o among_o the_o common_a protestant_n such_o a_o one_o be_v a_o good_a man_n but_o he_o be_v a_o quaker_n thus_o have_v

which_o be_v here_o say_v of_o the_o invisibility_n of_o the_o true_a church_n be_v not_o as_o this_o popish_a book_n will_v wicked_o insinuate_v because_o there_o be_v none_o call_v protestant_n before_o luther_n time_n or_o because_o other_o since_o luther_n time_n have_v have_v other_o name_n but_o because_o the_o truth_n according_a to_o the_o scripture_n of_o truth_n so_o judge_n as_o
