not_o learned_a in_o religion_n nor_o yet_o establish_v therein_o whereby_o their_o ministry_n be_v prove_v not_o to_o be_v christ_n ministry_n for_o the_o apostle_n do_v settle_v people_n and_o the_o church_n in_o religion_n which_o they_o have_v do_v no_o such_o thing_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o the_o power_n of_o the_o earth_n be_v call_v to_o that_o they_o may_v force_v by_o violence_n and_o by_o violent_a law_n that_o by_o that_o mean_n a_o worship_n and_o religion_n may_v be_v settle_v as_o they_o say_v and_o their_o ministry_n have_v not_o draw_v people_n by_o love_n and_o therefore_o will_v they_o have_v people_n force_v and_o compel_v to_o be_v of_o such_o or_o such_o religion_n but_o this_o be_v not_o christ_n way_n nor_o the_o way_n that_o his_o apostle_n and_o true_a church_n be_v in_o for_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o father_n lead_v each_o one_o of_o they_o to_o be_v religious_a and_o that_o same_o spirit_n settle_v and_o establish_v they_o in_o it_o and_o not_o external_a law_n nor_o power_n of_o the_o earth_n but_o that_o be_v antichrist_n way_n and_o the_o beast_n and_o the_o false_a prophet_n way_n for_o when_o they_o have_v kill_v the_o saint_n and_o slay_v true_a religion_n than_o the_o beast_n and_o false_a prophet_n they_o establish_v a_o religion_n or_o worship_n by_o outward_a law_n and_o it_o be_v write_v that_o he_o cause_v and_o compel_v all_o both_o small_a and_o great_a bond_n and_o free_a to_o worship_v the_o beast_n and_o his_o image_n and_o here_o be_v a_o settle_a people_n in_o a_o religion_n and_o worship_n by_o a_o outward_a compel_a power_n and_o thus_o it_o be_v then_o and_o be_v now_o the_o same_o false_a church_n and_o false_a religion_n be_v settle_v by_o a_o outward_a authority_n and_o it_o be_v nabuchadnezzar_n and_o his_o wicked_a prince_n that_o settle_v a_o religion_n or_o worship_n by_o a_o outward_a power_n and_o by_o a_o earthly_a authority_n but_o that_o be_v not_o the_o worship_n of_o true_a religion_n but_o be_v the_o worship_n of_o antichrist_n and_o so_o it_o have_v be_v for_o age_n that_o worship_n that_o be_v settle_v and_o that_o religion_n which_o be_v establish_v by_o a_o outward_a external_a power_n and_o the_o law_n of_o man_n be_v but_o the_o worship_n of_o antichrist_n and_o not_o the_o true_a religion_n nor_o the_o worship_n of_o the_o live_a god_n which_o be_v in_o spirit_n and_o in_o truth_n but_o it_o must_v all_o be_v overthrow_v and_o bring_v to_o nought_o both_o that_o religion_n and_o worship_n that_o be_v out_o of_o the_o spirit_n and_o that_o power_n that_o uphold_v it_o and_o now_o the_o lord_n god_n be_v rise_v to_o confound_v the_o thought_n of_o man_n heart_n and_o he_o alone_o will_v settle_v and_o establish_v religion_n by_o his_o own_o power_n and_o by_o his_o own_o law_n and_o through_o his_o own_o ministry_n and_o as_o people_n come_v to_o that_o of_o god_n in_o they_o to_o feel_v the_o spirit_n and_o power_n of_o the_o lord_n god_n to_o change_v they_o hereby_o will_v every_o one_o particular_o be_v settle_v in_o religion_n and_o by_o no_o other_o way_n nor_o mean_n and_o this_o i_o know_v from_o the_o lord_n but_o how_o shall_v people_n be_v settle_v in_o religion_n for_o people_n and_o nation_n have_v be_v and_o be_v as_o water_n which_o have_v be_v drive_v with_o the_o wind_n this_o way_n or_o the_o other_o way_n and_o the_o great_a whore_n sit_v upon_o the_o water_n and_o the_o beast_n have_v carry_v she_o and_o bear_v she_o up_o false_a worship_n and_o church_n and_o a_o outward_a power_n and_o she_o have_v rule_v and_o make_v all_o nation_n drink_v with_o her_o cup_n of_o fornication_n and_o the_o true_a religion_n have_v be_v lose_v for_o many_o age_n and_o the_o sect_n and_o false_a church_n have_v be_v set_v up_o and_o establish_v upon_o the_o water_n and_o as_o for_o true_a religion_n it_o can_v be_v establish_v while_o nation_n be_v water_n under_o the_o whore_n dominion_n and_o so_o the_o many_o sect_n which_o have_v be_v the_o many_o horn_n upon_o the_o beast_n and_o one_o have_v rise_v after_o another_o and_o one_o diverse_a from_o another_o and_o they_o have_v be_v strive_v one_o with_o another_o and_o persecute_v one_o another_o and_o one_o subdue_a one_o another_o and_o each_o one_o of_o they_o have_v cry_v for_o help_v from_o the_o beast_n and_o from_o the_o power_n of_o the_o earth_n to_o be_v defend_v from_o the_o power_n and_o malice_n one_o of_o another_o lest_o one_o shall_v prevail_v against_o another_o and_o get_v the_o better_a one_o of_o another_o and_o so_o that_o sect_n that_o can_v get_v authority_n from_o the_o power_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o have_v they_o of_o its_o side_n that_o sect_n have_v thrive_v and_o have_v be_v settle_v more_o than_o another_o which_o have_v not_o get_v the_o power_n of_o the_o earth_n to_o defend_v it_o and_o so_o as_o the_o power_n of_o the_o earth_n have_v be_v changeable_a so_o have_v religion_n be_v changeable_a and_o what_o sect_n the_o ruler_n have_v be_v on_o that_o have_v they_o high_o tolerate_v and_o most_o defend_v against_o all_o other_o but_o all_o this_o have_v not_o be_v the_o true_a establishment_n of_o true_a religion_n but_o now_o some_o may_v suppose_v and_o query_n whither_o i_o speak_v this_o as_o if_o i_o will_v have_v religion_n not_o at_o all_o settle_a and_o as_o if_o i_o be_v against_o the_o establish_n of_o religion_n and_o so_o thereby_o may_v be_v accuse_v as_o if_o i_o be_v a_o enemy_n to_o all_o religion_n and_o will_v not_o have_v religion_n establish_v etc._n etc._n to_o all_o this_o i_o answer_v i_o be_o a_o friend_n to_o true_a religion_n and_o seek_v the_o establish_n of_o it_o in_o the_o right_a way_n and_o by_o the_o ministry_n of_o righteousness_n by_o turn_v people_n mind_n to_o the_o spirit_n and_o to_o receive_v the_o anoint_v that_o they_o may_v be_v all_o teach_v of_o god_n and_o true_a worshipper_n of_o he_o in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n and_o may_v be_v settle_v in_o the_o true_a religion_n and_o this_o true_a religion_n will_v i_o have_v establish_v in_o the_o world_n and_o in_o the_o nation_n and_o will_v have_v all_o people_n therein_o establish_v by_o the_o ministry_n of_o righteousness_n thereunto_o ordain_v but_o i_o be_o against_o the_o establish_n of_o sect_n and_o the_o settle_n of_o one_o sect_n above_o another_o by_o the_o power_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o i_o will_v not_o have_v one_o set_v up_o and_o another_o throw_v down_o by_o the_o law_n of_o man_n for_o that_o bring_v forth_o nothing_o but_o tyranny_n and_o oppression_n and_o strife_n and_o wickedness_n in_o a_o nation_n and_o among_o people_n though_o thus_o it_o have_v be_v for_o many_o age_n false_a sect_n and_o false_a church_n have_v be_v establish_v by_o the_o power_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o external_a law_n and_o that_o sect_n which_o the_o king_n or_o queen_n or_o ruler_n have_v be_v of_o that_o have_v be_v set_v up_o and_o tolerate_v above_o the_o rest_n and_o the_o rest_n despise_v and_o persecute_v and_o set_v at_o nought_o for_o when_o and_o where_o a_o prince_n or_o a_o ruler_n be_v of_o the_o papist_n religion_n than_o that_o religion_n be_v the_o most_o establish_a and_o settle_v in_o that_o government_n and_o if_o at_o any_o time_n a_o ruler_n change_n to_o be_v of_o the_o protestant_a sect_n or_o one_o come_v to_o govern_v that_o be_v of_o that_o religion_n than_o that_o sect_n be_v the_o most_o establish_a and_o uphold_v thus_o it_o be_v through_o nation_n and_o in_o england_n particular_o within_o these_o late_a year_n when_o king_n henry_n the_o eight_o turn_v from_o the_o papist_n to_o be_v a_o protestant_a than_o that_o sect_n be_v establish_v and_o all_o other_o throw_v down_o and_o persecute_v and_o when_o queen_n mary_n rise_v to_o govern_v which_o be_v a_o papist_n than_o she_o establish_v that_o sect_n and_o false_a church_n by_o law_n and_o the_o rest_n be_v limit_v and_o throw_v down_o then_o when_o the_o next_o queen_n arise_v be_v a_o protestant_a she_o establish_v that_o sect_n again_o by_o outward_a law_n and_o cast_v all_o other_o down_o and_o thus_o it_o have_v be_v for_o many_o age_n throughout_o all_o nation_n of_o what_o sect_n and_o religion_n the_o governor_n and_o ruler_n have_v be_v that_o sect_n be_v only_o establish_v and_o all_o the_o rest_n persecute_v as_o i_o have_v say_v and_o so_o the_o say_n be_v fulfil_v nation_n have_v be_v water_n and_o people_n and_o multitude_n water_n and_o as_o a_o king_n and_o governor_n have_v change_v his_o religion_n and_o of_o what_o sect_n as_o he_o have_v be_v so_o have_v the_o religion_n of_o the_o whole_a nation_n or_o country_n change_v and_o such_o a_o sect_n only_o establish_v against_o all_o other_o but_o
