the_o first_o term_n of_o christianity_n and_o to_o reckon_v no_o man_n a_o christian_n let_v he_o profess_v what_o he_o will_v save_v such_o a_o one_o as_o do_v know_v and_o witness_n that_o the_o

to_o return_v again_o to_o the_o term_n of_o christianity_n that_o be_v set_v up_o by_o a_o high_a authority_n than_o ever_o antichrist_n have_v and_o before_o antichrist_n be_v reveal_v for_o though_o it_o be_v true_a that_o antichrist_n have_v obtain_v power_n on_o earth_n to_o establish_v his_o sort_n of_o christianity_n that_o be_v without_o the_o cross_n and_o a_o sort_n of_o

that_o the_o world_n be_v divide_v antichrist_n government_n in_o the_o world_n be_v divide_v and_o when_o the_o house_n be_v divide_v against_o itself_o there_o be_v hope_n that_o it_o will_v fall_v at_o last_o but_o there_o be_v one_o to_o who_o all_o power_n in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n be_v give_v and_o commit_v and_o his_o christian_n be_v not_o divide_v among_o themselves_o but_o they_o be_v

if_o we_o have_v set_v up_o a_o way_n of_o religion_n as_o other_o folk_n have_v do_v which_o be_v contain_v in_o some_o canon_n article_n doctrine_n and_o such_o and_o such_o observation_n and_o
