we_o do_v suppose_v he_o to_o be_v elias_n though_o christ_n himself_o have_v tell_v we_o he_o be_v come_v already_o and_o some_o other_o think_v he_o to_o be_v that_o belove_a disciple_n mention_v in_o the_o 21_o chapter_n of_o st._n john_n gospel_n where_o our_o saviour_n presage_v in_o what_o mode_n peter_n shall_v suffer_v and_o he_o then_o ask_v what_o that_o disciple_n shall_v do_v be_v thus_o answer_v if_o i_o will_v that_o he_o tarry_v till_o i_o come_v what_o be_v that_o to_o thou_o follow_v thou_o i_o whereupon_o some_o infer_v that_o disciple_n he_o shall_v not_o die_v though_o as_o be_v then_o aver_v in_o the_o word_n follow_v christ_n say_v not_o so_o nor_o as_o i_o believe_v intend_v it_o shall_v be_v so_o understand_v yet_o that_o interpretation_n be_v retain_v by_o some_o to_o this_o day_n and_o now_o as_o i_o hear_v make_v use_v of_o to_o countenance_v the_o forementioned_a rumour_n whereof_o i_o confess_v myself_o incredulous_a for_o the_o reason_n afore_o express_v doubtless_o when_o such_o a_o occasion_n be_v give_v to_o have_v it_o explain_v christ_n will_v not_o have_v leave_v that_o ambiguous_a which_o be_v misunderstand_v and_o so_o l_o believe_v of_o every_o mysterious_a expression_n which_o be_v necessary_a to_o be_v know_v by_o all_o man_n as_o pertinent_a to_o their_o salvation_n unless_o it_o be_v to_o make_v we_o wary_a by_o what_o spirit_n we_o interpret_v holy_a scripture_n lest_o that_o which_o lead_v into_o all_o truth_n may_v by_o our_o negligence_n or_o vain_a curiosity_n lead_v we_o into_o error_n if_o misapprehend_v if_o there_o be_v any_o point_n mention_v in_o holy_a scripture_n relate_v to_o the_o kingdom_n to_o come_v which_o be_v topical_a or_o national_a let_v they_o look_v to_o it_o who_o it_o concern_v for_o i_o conceive_v not_o that_o it_o any_o otherwise_o concern_v we_o then_o as_o it_o shall_v have_v a_o universal_a locality_n upon_o earth_n without_o respect_n to_o any_o nation_n or_o place_n in_o particular_a as_o appear_v to_o i_o by_o the_o word_n of_o our_o saviour_n to_o the_o woman_n of_o samaria_n john_n 4._o 21_o 22_o 33._o woman_n say_v he_o believe_v i_o the_o hour_n come_v when_o

the_o true_a worshipper_n shall_v worship_v in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n etc._n etc._n whence_o i_o collect_v that_o if_o place_n be_v not_o essential_a to_o the_o true_a worship_n of_o god_n when_o christ_n first_o come_v into_o the_o world_n it_o will_v be_v less_o essential_a thereunto_o at_o his_o second_o come_v or_o to_o have_v it_o limit_v to_o a_o narrow_a extent_n then_o to_o the_o whole_a earth_n and_o all_o nation_n 15._o i_o be_o not_o doubtful_a but_o that_o in_o the_o last_o time_n there_o will_v be_v some_o extraordinary_a and_o eminent_a transaction_n and_o some_o in_o the_o next_o year_n after_o this_o 1665._o and_o during_o four_o or_o five_o and_o thirty_o year_n after_o 1666._o in_o relation_n to_o the_o approach_a kingdom_n of_o christ_n and_o to_o those_o who_o have_v be_v so_o many_o age_n repute_v the_o offspring_n of_o the_o patriarch_n scatter_v throughout_o the_o world_n and_o i_o believe_v god_n will_v in_o his_o own_o time_n fulfil_v all_o his_o judgement_n threaten_v for_o their_o apostasy_n and_o obstinacy_n as_o also_o his_o gracious_a promise_n make_v unto_o their_o forefather_n but_o when_o that_o will_v be_v accomplise_v that_o or_o in_o what_o manner_n will_v be_v do_v which_o be_v expect_v concern_v the_o jew_n i_o leave_v it_o to_o god_n good_a pleasure_n and_o unto_o they_o to_o search_v in_o what_o mode_n it_o will_v be_v who_o think_v it_o concern_v they_o more_o than_o i_o do_v who_o be_o content_v with_o those_o manifestation_n which_o i_o find_v in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n not_o repugnant_a to_o each_o other_o or_o above_o my_o understanding_n there_o will_v be_v such_o sign_n wonder_n and_o miracle_n as_o have_v be_v foretold_v as_o also_o extraordinary_a preparation_n by_o divine_a providence_n before_o

faithful_a to_o the_o end_n yet_o unsafe_a it_o may_v be_v and_o a_o occasion_n of_o multiply_v needless_a fear_n and_o trouble_n upon_o ourselves_o to_o make_v such_o idea_n of_o christ_n kingdom_n and_o reign_n upon_o earth_n or_o such_o sign_n of_o its_o approach_n as_o be_v not_o plain_o warrant_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n who_o hide_a way_n be_v pass_v our_o find_v out_o and_o so_o much_o
