With a cleare discovery, who are the false prophets, and when they came in. And who they are that deny Christ, and that preach another gospel. And who deny the scriptures, churches, ministers, and magistrates, whereby the magistrates and people of this nation may see they justifie that which the scripture condemns, and condemne that which the holy men of God justified. / By a servant of the Lord, whose name in the flesh is, Edward Burrough.

christ_n and_o here_o again_o i_o charge_v all_o the_o teacher_n and_o people_n in_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o lord_n god_n who_o do_v deny_v christ_n to_o be_v the_o light_n in_o every_o one_o
