davison_n and_o some_o other_o about_o he_o think_v very_o he_o will_v have_v die_v they_o will_v he_o to_o call_v upon_o god_n he_o do_v so_o desire_v he_o for_o christ_n sake_n to_o pardon_v all_o his_o sin_n after_o diverse_a time_n he_o have_v so_o pray_v he_o come_v to_o be_v reasonable_o well_o whereupon_o the_o keeper_n put_v upon_o he_o this_o speech_n i_o pray_v you_o sir_n how_o come_v it_o about_o that_o your_o brother_n have_v still_o suggest_v unto_o i_o that_o i_o shall_v go_v to_o god_n by_o saint_n and_o not_o direct_o by_o christ_n whereas_o i_o perceive_v that_o you_o in_o this_o agony_n never_o pray_v to_o saint_n but_o go_v to_o god_n direct_o by_o christ_n to_o who_o the_o priest_n return_v such_o answer_n i_o pray_v you_o be_v content_a i_o have_v no_o leisure_n to_o pray_v unto_o saint_n for_o i_o look_v but_o present_o to_o die_v so_o far_o the_o story_n now_o i_o pray_v you_o have_v it_o not_o be_v better_o for_o he_o to_o have_v die_v in_o the_o former_a

they_o in_o their_o agony_n be_v glad_a to_o turn_v protestant_a and_o for_o quiet_a of_o soul_n to_o betake_v themselves_o to_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o gospel_n the_o gospel_n so_o essential_o consider_v and_o the_o antichristian_a opposition_n so_o remember_v let_v i_o put_v down_o the_o ensue_a conclusion_n 1._o no_o evil_a sever_v from_o such_o a_o opposite_a foundation_n as_o be_v justification_n with_o god_n by_o work_n can_v proper_o be_v term_v antichristianit●e_n no_o more_o than_o every_o evil_n against_o god_n good_a spirit_n can_v proper_o be_v term_v the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o therefore_o our_o schismatic_n call_v every_o thing_n they_o like_v not_o antichristianitie_n show_v themselves_o untollerable_o ignorant_a for_o if_o every_o evil_a be_v antichristianity_n than_o which_o be_v most_o absurd_a every_o soul_n live_v be_v antichristian_a and_o if_o they_o will_v not_o say_v the_o last_o then_o let_v they_o be_v ashamed_a of_o the_o first_o 2._o then_o also_o follow_v ungaine_o sayable_o that_o no_o outward_a form_n of_o discipline_n be_v proper_o antichristian_a howsoever_o it_o may_v be_v taint_v with_o evil_a see_v no_o such_o discipline_n can_v be_v call_v a_o opposite_a or_o false_a gospel_n 3._o a_o church_n settle_v upon_o a_o false_a gospel_n be_v notwithstanding_o all_o the_o best_a discipline_n can_v he_o have_v a_o false_a church_n and_o antichristian_a the_o reason_n be_v discipline_n be_v not_o a_o essential_a mark_n of_o a_o true_a church_n for_o one_o and_o the_o same_o discipline_n or_o outward_a form_n of_o government_n can_v be_v apply_v to_o christ_n or_o antichrist_n and_o so_o on_o the_o other_o side_n a_o people_n settle_v in_o the_o true_a faith_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v always_o in_o such_o estate_n a_o true_a church_n of_o god_n notwithstanding_o a_o thousand_o imperfection_n in_o discipline_n for_o as_o job_n be_v a_o true_a man_n and_o so_o lazarus_n notwithstanding_o much_o unsoundnesse_n in_o their_o member_n so_o a_o people_n may_v be_v a_o true_a church_n though_o much_o unsound_a the_o reason_n be_v because_o the_o spirit_n of_o life_n still_o move_v in_o their_o member_n and_o as_o we_o know_v that_o the_o spirit_n of_o life_n be_v 〈◊〉_d sick_a body_n by_o his_o breathe_n so_o we_o know_v that_o the_o 〈◊〉_d of_o christ_n be_v in_o a_o church_n by_o her_o
