of_o the_o revelation_n there_o we_o read_v of_o the_o womâ—n_n by_o which_o the_o church_n be_v set_v out_o that_o flee_v into_o the_o wilderness_n where_o she_o have_v her_o place_n prepare_v of_o

of_o two_o hundred_o or_o more_o year_n before_o the_o begin_n of_o these_o time_n but_o i_o think_v god_n have_v not_o leave_v it_o full_o clear_a to_o determine_v about_o the_o time_n only_o this_o god_n by_o his_o strange_a kind_n of_o work_n among_o we_o do_v seem_v as_o if_o he_o be_v hasten_v of_o the_o time_n as_o if_o it_o be_v near_o at_o hand_n wherefore_o then_o we_o leave_v all_o

so_o much_o in_o the_o church_n and_o though_o i_o dare_v not_o tell_v you_o the_o time_n yet_o there_o be_v nothing_o to_o the_o contrary_a but_o that_o it_o be_v possible_a it_o may_v be_v in_o

as_o nothing_o appear_v to_o the_o contrary_a but_o many_o probability_n there_o be_v for_o it_o it_o will_v go_v very_o hard_o with_o you_o if_o so_o be_v these_o time_n shall_v come_v upon_o you_o

be_v know_v and_o yet_o have_v be_v naught_o and_o ungodly_a and_o these_o time_n find_v they_o so_o after_o these_o time_n be_v describe_v to_o john_n in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o revelation_n then_o say_v he_o in_o the_o 21_o chap._n 8._o vers_fw-la but_o the_o fearful_a and_o vnbelieve_v and_o the_o abominable_a and_o murderer_n and_o whoremonger_n and_o sorcerer_n and_o idolater_n and_o all_o

take_v it_o the_o reason_n why_o the_o fearful_a and_o vnbelieve_a be_v here_o place_v among_o these_o notorious_a sinner_n it_o be_v because_o that_o in_o the_o time_n that_o antichrist_n shall_v prevail_v many_o out_o of_o fear_n of_o trouble_n and_o danger_n shall_v deny_v the_o truth_n and_o cleave_v to_o the_o antichristian_a party_n and_o because_o they_o see_v thing_n go_v very_o hardly_o with_o the_o godly_a party_n they_o will_v forsake_v they_o through_o their_o unbelief_n and_o therefore_o they_o be_v reckon_v in_o among_o the_o notorious_a vile_a sinner_n and_o the_o

put_v man_n to_o the_o trial_n a_o little_a before_o these_o time_n come_v therefore_o he_o say_v the_o fearful_a and_o unbelieving_a he_o reckon_v up_o they_o among_o the_o notorious_a sinner_n as_o if_o the_o lord_n shall_v say_v when_o i_o be_o about_o to_o set_v up_o this_o new_a jerusalem_n there_o will_v come_v a_o time_n of_o trial_n and_o abundance_n of_o you_o that_o make_v fair_a

when_o god_n shall_v be_v set_v up_o in_o the_o world_n when_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v rule_v in_o the_o world_n it_o will_v be_v worth_a the_o live_n and_o not_o till_o then_o and_o then_o further_o
