his_o conspiracy_n continue_v not_o i_o grant_v and_o yet_o a_o great_a that_o be_v the_o conspiracy_n of_o antichrist_n against_o christ_n jesus_n have_v continue_v now_o for_o many_o year_n and_o the_o lord_n have_v set_v corahs_n overthrow_n for_o a_o sign_n unto_o the_o rebellious_a child_n especial_o unto_o the_o conspirator_n that_o be_v rise_v up_o against_o christ_n jesus_n that_o

a_o moment_n yet_o far_o be_v it_o that_o we_o shall_v think_v the_o conspiracy_n of_o the_o member_n of_o antichrist_n against_o the_o right_a heir_n of_o the_o house_n of_o david_n to_o be_v less_o

as_o have_v determine_v utterlie_o to_o consume_v and_o abolish_v that_o apostatical_a body_n by_o no_o other_o special_a mean_n then_o by_o the_o brightness_n of_o his_o appear_v and_o come_v in_o

and_o will_v it_o not_o be_v adjudge_v much_o more_o heinous_a thus_o to_o rebel_v against_o the_o son_n of_o god_n the_o spirit_n of_o god_n say_v yea_o because_o this_o man_n to_o wit_n 3.3_o heb._n 3.3_o jesus_n christ_n be_v worthy_a of_o more_o honour_n than_o moses_n and_o he_o that_o break_v his_o law_n especial_o enter_v into_o conspiracy_n against_o he_o be_v a_o far_o great_a traitor_n than_o he_o that_o rise_v against_o the_o ordinance_n of_o moses_n the_o conclusion_n than_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o conspiracy_n of_o the_o archbishop_n and_o bishop_n of_o this_o land_n against_o christ_n jesus_n whereby_o they_o be_v foreign_a officer_n and_o stranger_n from_o the_o house_n of_o god_n by_o virtue_n of_o their_o office_n do_v yet_o presume_v to_o arrogate_v the_o

in_o go_v about_o to_o plant_v what_o office_n he_o think_v meet_v in_o his_o own_o house_n they_o mend_v not_o themselves_o for_o he_o that_o hear_v you_o hear_v i_o say_v christ_n jesus_n and_o he_o that_o despise_v his_o word_n reject_v he_o &_o again_o corah_n do_v not_o profess_v himself_o to_o rise_v against_o the_o god_n of_o israel_n yet_o say_v moses_n unto_o he_o thou_o and_o all_o thy_o

they_o do_v in_o these_o thing_n we_o answer_v that_o the_o question_n be_v not_o what_o they_o know_v but_o what_o they_o do_v they_o have_v have_v sufficient_a time_n to_o learn_v now_o these_o 34_o

and_o persecute_v that_o which_o they_o know_v not_o and_o so_o be_v in_o a_o fearful_a case_n but_o corah_n and_o his_o company_n live_v in_o a_o time_n of_o small_a light_n have_v also_o some_o

wherefore_o either_o it_o must_v be_v say_v that_o man_n may_v conspire_v against_o jesus_n christ_n without_o controlment_n whereas_o this_o can_v not_o be_v do_v under_o and_o against_o moses_n
