prevail_v against_o his_o church_n which_o prophecy_n be_v make_v good_a thus_o long_o till_o this_o day_n and_o be_v as_o a_o continual_a argument_n to_o justify_v the_o divinity_n of_o the_o

must_v continue_v because_o it_o come_v from_o god_n and_o therefore_o it_o come_v from_o god_n because_o it_o do_v and_o shall_v for_o ever_o continue_v according_a to_o the_o word_n of_o the_o

there_o shall_v arise_v a_o sect_n of_o vile_a man_n who_o shall_v be_v enemy_n to_o religion_n and_o government_n and_o cause_v a_o great_a apostasy_n which_o happen_v notorious_o in_o the_o sect_n of_o the_o gnostic_n which_o those_o three_o apostle_n and_o s._n john_n notorious_o and_o plain_o do_v describe_v and_o the_o other_o be_v that_o although_o the_o jewish_a nation_n do_v mighty_o

a_o mighty_a demonstration_n against_o the_o jew_n by_o their_o own_o prophet_n for_o when_o isaiah_n and_o jeremiah_n and_o malachi_n have_v prophesy_v the_o rejection_n of_o the_o jew_n and_o the_o

when_o the_o circumstance_n be_v impossible_a the_o law_n that_o be_v whole_o ceremonial_a and_o circumstantial_a must_v needs_o pass_v away_o and_o when_o they_o have_v lose_v their_o priesthood_n they_o can_v retain_v the_o law_n as_o no_o man_n take_v care_n to_o have_v his_o beard_n shave_v when_o his_o head_n be_v off_o and_o it_o be_v a_o wonder_n to_o consider_v how_o the_o anger_n of_o
