A
second
Sound
or
warning
of
the
Trumpet
vnto
iudgement
.
OFten
&
sundrie
times
did
God
foreshew
vnto
our
forefathers
in
the
olde
Testament
,
the
first
comming
of
his
Son
into
this
world
,
&
the
taking
of
our
nature
vpon
him
most
plainly
&
euidently
did
he
declare
vnto
them
,
that
Christ
by
his
death
should
restore
vs
vnto
life
,
and
that
by
his
resurrection
and
ascension
,
hee
should
make
perfect
the
worke
of
our
saluation
.
In
like
manner
did
hee
with
no
lesse
perspicuitie
set
foorth
vnto
them
,
the
returne
of
our
Sauiour
vnto
iudgement
,
and
that
all
men
should
rise
againe
vnto
immortalitie
,
and
render
an
account
of
all
their
workes
and
actions
.
All
this
did
hee
promise
them
by
his
Prophetes
,
iustifie
in
his
person
,
and
confirme
firme
by
manie
maruellous
signes
and
wonders
:
such
as
were
neuer
heard
of
before
since
the
beginning
of
the
world
.
Yet
did
the
obstinate
Iewes
harden
their
hearts
and
beleeued
not
.
Wherefore
God
made
them
no
more
nation
,
but
scattered
them
into
all
lands
,
in
such
wise
wee
see
them
at
this
day
to
be
a
scorne
and
derision
vnto
all
people
.
Neither
can
the
example
of
these
men
so
often
rebuked
by
vs
for
their
incredulitie
,
so
greatly
blamed
for
their
obstinacie
,
so
sharply
reprooued
by
vs
for
their
crueltie
,
so
iustlie
despised
for
their
ignominie
,
any
thing
amend
vs
in
the
same
things
wherin
wee
condemne
them
.
For
what
promise
haue
they
,
and
wee
haue
it
not
performed
?
What
Prophesie
had
they
,
and
we
haue
it
not
fulfilled
?
What
true
Religion
had
they
,
and
we
haue
it
not
restored
?
What
worde
,
what
testimonie
,
what
signes
,
what
miracles
,
what
mercies
,
what
graces
,
and
what
benefites
had
they
,
and
we
haue
them
not
a
thousand
times
more
increased
.
Yet
are
we
altogether
either
incredulous
of
the
promises
,
or
doubtful
of
the
performance
,
or
else
carelesse
and
desperate
of
our
own
deliueraunce
.
And
this
maketh
vs
to
leane
to
the
fables
and
deceaueable
doctrines
of
men
,
more
then
to
the
true
Prophesies
of
the
word
of
God
,
&
to
the
commandements
of
Christ
and
his
Apostles
,
who
haue
declared
the
second
comming
of
Christ
,
and
that
in
such
plaine
and
euident
sort
,
as
they
haue
shewed
the
verie
time
when
,
the
manner
how
,
and
the
things
themselues
that
shoulde
withholde
:
the
signes
and
tokens
that
should
goe
before
,
and
all
other
certainties
whatsoeuer
are
necessarie
for
man
to
knowe
,
as
concerning
the
same
.
And
by
this
meanes
,
if
the
iudgement
of
God
and
finall
destruction
of
the
world
do
come
sodainely
vpon
man
before
he
be
aware
,
there
is
no
ignoraunce
to
be
pleaded
,
there
is
no
excuse
to
bee
regarded
,
there
is
no
darkenesse
of
the
Scriptures
to
be
alledged
.
For
it
al
the
holie
Bible
,
there
is
not
anie
one
thing
that
the
mercie
and
goodnesse
of
our
God
hath
set
downe
more
amplie
,
taught
more
plainlie
,
and
set
foorth
more
expreslie
,
for
the
assurance
of
our
faith
,
than
the
tokens
of
Christs
comming
.
And
as
the
preaching
and
publishing
of
the
Gospel
by
the
Apostles
,
ministers
and
disciples
of
Christ
,
in
the
first
ages
after
his
ascension
,
was
the
first
warning
of
the
Trumpet
,
sounded
at
that
time
vnto
all
Nations
against
the
resurrection
of
the
flesh
,
and
of
Christs
returne
againe
vnto
iudgement
:
so
the
reuiuing
of
the
Gospel
,
and
reuealing
of
Antichrist
by
preaching
of
the
worde
;
together
with
the
other
signes
&
tokens
that
Christ
himselfe
told
vs
should
come
to
passe
before
his
second
comming
,
is
a
peremptorie
warning
that
shall
be
giuen
vnto
all
flesh
.
For
the
last
sound
of
the
Trumpet
,
shall
bee
no
more
properlie
a
warning
,
but
an
hastie
and
sodaine
comming
,
a
crying
vnto
iudgement
,
and
appearing
of
Christ
in
the
cloudes
,
a
perishing
of
the
heauens
,
&
a
consuming
of
the
earth
and
all
the
workes
thereof
with
fire
.
Wherefore
I
meane
heere
to
put
the
Christian
world
in
minde
of
all
those
tokens
,
as
neere
as
I
can
by
that
order
,
which
Christ
himselfe
and
his
Apostles
wel
neere
1600.
yeeres
past
haue
declared
in
the
word
of
God
.
And
therein
I
will
examine
how
manie
of
those
signes
and
tokens
be
past
,
and
howe
manie
of
them
doe
yet
remaine
to
be
fulfilled
.
Then
will
I
see
,
whither
this
bee
not
the
verie
time
that
Christ
hath
prescribed
to
returne
againe
:
or
if
the
time
be
not
yet
full
complete
,
whither
it
bee
not
so
verie
neere
therevnto
,
as
it
is
most
certaine
that
the
same
shall
not
be
long
deferred
.
Lastlie
,
I
will
do
my
best
to
stirre
vp
the
mindes
of
all
men
to
repentance
,
and
to
prepare
themselues
with
all
the
diligence
&
duetie
they
can
shewe
in
this
life
,
to
go
foorth
of
meete
with
that
great
Prince
of
glorie
Christ
Iesus
.
Albeit
our
forefathers
in
euerie
age
since
the
time
of
the
Apostles
,
had
manie
signes
and
tokens
,
whereby
euerie
one
might
looke
for
the
day
of
the
Lord
in
that
age
werein
he
liued
;
and
the
rather
because
Paule
said
in
his
time
,
that
the
examples
of
the
old
Testament
wer
written
for
a
warning
vnto
vs
vpon
whom
the
ends
of
the
world
were
come
;
Mathew
,
Marke
and
else
where
)
then
may
it
be
called
the
last
signe
or
token
of
all
.
Because
,
as
the
publishing
of
the
worde
ouer
all
the
world
,
groweth
by
little
and
little
,
so
the
perfect
reuealing
of
Antichrist
vnto
all
Nations
,
is
daily
more
and
more
plainely
and
euidently
discerned
thereby
.
And
in
this
respect
,
the
preaching
of
the
word
with
the
consuming
of
him
shall
end
both
together
,
at
the
verie
comming
of
Christ
,
and
not
before
:
because
the
Scripture
saith
,
that
the
spirit
of
the
Lords
mouth
shall
consume
him
,
but
the
brightnes
of
his
comming
shall
vtterly
destroy
him
.
When
the
kingdome
of
Christ
was
increased
,
and
growen
to
the
full
by
preaching
of
the
Gospel
,
and
that
the
Bishop
of
Rome
began
also
to
growe
great
in
Italy
,
by
decaying
of
the
Empire
,
&
by
the
giftes
and
donacions
of
Princes
,
then
did
also
the
same
Bishop
fall
from
true
religion
to
superstition
;
from
the
right
seruice
of
God
,
to
false
worshipping
;
from
sinceritie
,
to
hypocrisie
;
from
the
rules
of
Gods
word
,
to
the
reasons
&
decrees
of
men
.
And
as
his
greatnesse
increased
,
&
the
Emperours
power
diminished
,
so
the
Apostasie
of
that
Church
was
the
more
discerned
,
&
Antichrist
of
Rome
the
more
reuealed
:
and
so
when
Rome
,
the
seate
of
the
Empire
was
vtterly
remoued
from
the
temporal
Magistrate
,
and
wholly
inuested
in
the
Pope
,
and
that
the
Pope
claimed
to
be
the
vniuersall
Bishop
,
there
was
now
nothing
to
hinder
,
but
that
all
men
might
discerne
how
farre
the
Church
was
falne
from
God
,
&
who
was
very
Antichrist
the
Author
of
the
same
.
Howbeit
,
though
he
by
this
meanes
shewed
himself
to
be
that
Antichrist
,
which
both
the
Prophetes
and
also
Christ
and
his
Apostles
had
so
manifestly
described
before
hand
,
as
there
can
be
nothing
in
the
Scriture
more
plaine
,
yet
can
it
not
be
saide
,
that
Antichrist
was
fully
reuealed
,
till
this
latter
age
of
ours
;
both
because
the
infinite
measure
of
his
iniquitie
was
neuer
before
fulfilled
,
with
so
great
power
and
signes
and
lying
wonders
,
as
it
hath
bene
now
within
these
few
ages
past
:
and
also
because
hee
made
princes
his
ministers
and
vassals
,
to
see
that
his
commaundements
were
obserued
,
and
his
honour
,
dignitie
and
power
maintained
;
and
that
none
shoulde
be
so
hardie
as
to
bring
his
name
in
question
,
or
to
finde
fault
with
anie
part
of
his
superstition
.
But
when
it
pleased
God
of
his
infinite
mercie
to
put
into
the
hearts
of
Kings
and
Princes
,
prudently
to
snake
off
his
intollerable
yoke
from
their
shoulders
,
and
to
send
foorth
preachers
of
his
word
,
that
shoulde
openly
pronounce
him
to
bee
verie
Antichrist
,
and
to
proue
it
to
his
face
out
of
the
worde
of
God
,
that
he
is
that
man
of
sinne
foreshewed
in
the
Scripture
,
then
it
might
truly
be
said
,
that
there
was
no
impediment
betweene
him
and
home
,
but
that
he
is
perfectly
,
infallibly
,
and
expresly
discouered
,
taught
&
knowen
to
be
Antichrist
among
all
them
that
professe
the
Gospel
of
Christ
.
Wherefore
,
the
matter
being
so
true
,
as
both
the
word
of
God
it selfe
affirmeth
,
and
the
testimonies
and
proofes
of
innumerable
Writers
extant
inuincibly
confirmeth
,
I
need
not
wade
anie
further
herein
,
than
is
necessarie
to
induce
the
matter
I
haue
in
hand
For
this
beeing
true
,
that
the
Apostacie
of
that
Church
drawing
to
an
ende
by
preaching
of
of
the
word
;
that
all
the
impediments
,
which
kept
Antichrist
backe
,
that
he
could
not
be
so
manifest
to
the
world
being
remoued
;
that
Antichrist
himself
is
now
in
this
age
of
ours
most
euidently
discyphered
,
and
that
those
be
the
principall
and
most
apparant
signes
of
he
Lords
comming
,
whereof
the
rest
or
manie
of
them
depend
,
and
might
not
be
shewed
till
these
were
fulfilled
;
we
are
now
to
see
what
other
tokens
the
holy
Ghost
hath
set
downe
in
the
word
written
,
that
should
be
shewed
a
little
before
the
day
of
iudgement
.
Our
Sauiour
Christ
saith
,
that
before
the
end
of
the
world
Nation
shall
rise
against
nation
,
and
Realme
against
Realme
,
and
there
shall
be
famines
,
and
pestilence
,
and
earthquakes
in
certaine
places
.
When
Antichrist
hath
long
and
quietly
helde
the
possession
both
of
the
temporall
and
spirituall
swordes
,
when
hee
hath
manie
yeeres
taken
vpon
him
the
office
of
Christ
,
to
be
the
King
of
Kinges
and
Lord
of
Lords
,
and
to
haue
the
domimon
aswel
of
the
soules
as
of
the
bodies
of
men
,
it
is
great
&
horrible
griefe
vnto
him
to
loose
so
high
a
dominion
,
and
to
stoope
from
the
office
of
God
which
hee
taketh
vpon
him
,
among
men
,
to
become
as
an
other
man
:
&
therefore
he
deuiseth
by
all
meanes
to
punish
and
disquiet
the
Saints
of
God
.
Whom
he
may
bring
into
his
power
,
them
he
vexeth
,
them
he
tormenteth
,
them
he
burneth
,
them
hee
destroyeth
without
all
pitie
or
mercie
.
And
if
they
be
such
as
for
their
authoritie
and
greatnesse
he
cannot
,
or
by
reason
of
the
protection
of
others
he
dare
not
bring
vnder
his
tyrannie
,
he
stirreth
vp
Kings
and
Princes
of
his
confederacie
,
to
make
warres
vpon
them
.
Or
if
that
faile
,
he
moueth
their
owne
subiects
to
rebel
and
put
themselues
in
armes
against
them
.
Whereby
hee
hath
at
this
day
set
in
an
vprore
the
whole
Christian
world
;
kingdome
against
kingdome
,
and
nation
against
nation
,
&
one
people
against
another
,
that
he
may
the
easier
(
as
hee
thinketh
)
defende
his
proud
and
insolent
gouernment
,
his
false
and
superstitious
religion
,
and
the
seate
and
dignitie
of
his
Popedome
.
Neither
can
that
place
of
Scripture
of
Nation
rising
against
Nation
,
and
kingdome
against
kingdome
,
be
more
necessarilie
vnderstood
of
anie
other
warres
to
be
made
between
Prince
&
Prince
,
than
such
as
Antichrist
raiseth
vp
for
religion
sake
.
Neither
did
I
euer
heare
of
anie
warres
before
this
age
of
ours
between
the
nations
&
kingdoms
of
Christendome
for
Christ
his
cause
:
that
is
to
say
,
for
the
true
worshipping
of
him
,
for
the
preaching
of
his
Gospel
,
for
the
difference
in
opinions
,
for
the
libertie
of
the
conscience
,
and
for
the
triall
of
the
true
Church
:
and
that
so
earnestlie
and
continuallie
and
without
hope
of
reconciliation
;
till
now
that
Antichrist
for
the
sauing
of
his
dominion
,
hath
made
all
these
commotions
and
troubles
in
the
world
,
which
cannot
bee
decided
till
Christ
in
his
owne
person
come
to
trie
his
own
cause
in
iudgement
.
But
for
all
other
temporall
causes
the
Nations
and
Princes
of
Christendome
haue
one
risen
against
another
euer
since
the
time
that
Christ
ascended
vp
into
heauen
.
Wherefore
this
is
the
sense
&
meaning
of
these
words
of
Christ
:
Towards
the
ende
of
the
worlde
when
Antichrist
is
reuealed
,
and
that
he
feareth
to
forgo
his
Crowne
and
dominion
,
hee
shall
stirre
vp
the
Princes
that
be
his
Confederates
to
warre
vpon
the
Nations
and
Cities
that
professe
the
Gospel
,
that
what
he
is
not
able
to
doe
of
his
owne
power
,
nor
by
his
false
and
forged
miracles
,
nor
by
gathering
of
his
general
Councels
,
nor
by
pronouncing
of
his
excommunications
and
curses
,
nor
by
the
wrong
interpretations
of
the
Scriptures
,
nor
by
the
writings
and
disputations
of
his
schoole
Doctors
,
nor
by
sending
abroad
of
his
Seminarie
priests
and
hypocrites
,
that
wil
he
endeuor
to
do
by
the
help
of
other
princes
,
vnder
pretence
of
doing
God
good
seruice
.
And
this
notable
token
foretolde
of
Christ
as
touching
his
second
comming
,
we
see
is
alreadie
at
hand
,
and
is
like
euerie
day
more
and
more
to
bee
verified
to
the
great
effusion
of
Christian
bloud
.
In
like
manner
,
as
concerning
famine
pestilences
and
earthquakes
,
foreshewed
by
Christ
in
the
second
place
,
they
are
not
so
fitlie
to
bee
referred
to
anie
of
those
which
houe
ben
in
times
past
,
before
this
man
of
sinne
was
reuealed
.
For
those
haue
been
heeretofore
manie
,
great
and
horrible
,
yee
and
at
somtimes
in
some
places
almost
vniuerfall
.
But
those
which
haue
happened
,
and
shall
happen
in
our
time
,
when
Antichrist
shal
be
more
and
more
reuealed
,
superstition
abandoned
,
the
power
of
the
beast
decreased
,
the
kingdome
of
Christ
reuiued
,
the
Gospel
freelie
published
,
and
the
second
warning
of
the
trumpet
sounded
,
those
be
vndoubted
testimonies
and
tokens
that
the
day
of
the
Lord
is
at
hand
.
Such
haue
were
now
had
within
the
compasse
of
these
few
yeeres
,
euen
manie
,
and
great
,
and
horrible
:
somtimes
in
particular
Cities
and
Countries
,
and
sometime
in
whole
Prouinces
of
Christendome
.
What
wonderfull
famines
haue
we
had
in
places
distressed
&
besieged
by
the
champions
of
Antichrist
,
both
in
Fraunce
,
the
Low
Countries
,
and
other
Christian
Prouinces
;
not
sent
immediately
by
the
finger
of
God
,
but
constrained
for
the
most
part
by
the
crueltie
of
Antichrist
:
by
whose
meanes
it
is
to
be
prooued
,
that
beyond
the
horror
of
all
famines
that
euer
I
heard
of
,
or
read
,
men
haue
been
constrained
to
pull
out
the
dead
carkases
buried
in
graues
,
to
make
sustenance
for
their
bodies
.
Pestilences
also
there
haue
been
manie
and
great
,
besides
those
former
signes
and
tokens
:
In
England
;
in
Fraunce
,
in
Spaine
,
in
Italy
,
&
welneere
in
euerie
countrie
of
Christendome
.
We
our selues
also
haue
lately
heard
and
felt
great
and
fearefull
earthquakes
,
to
put
vs
in
minde
of
the
promise
of
Christ
,
and
therefore
to
assure
our selues
of
his
speedie
comming
vnto
iudgement
,
least
if
we
prouide
not
for
the
same
,
we
be
sodeinly
taken
tardie
,
and
for
our
wickednes
be
cast
into
the
lake
of
fire
and
brimstone
,
that
neuer
shal
be
quenched
.
In
the
third
place
is
shewed
,
what
anguish
&
trouble
the
Saints
of
God
shall
endure
for
Christes
sake
;
especially
when
they
haue
made
it
manifest
to
all
the
world
,
that
the
Pope
of
Rome
is
that
sonne
of
perdition
,
which
exalteth
himself
aboue
God
.
For
then
doth
he
seek
by
all
maner
of
meanes
to
kil
&
destroy
them
:
by
imprisonment
,
by
torment
,
by
fire
,
by
sworde
,
by
poyson
,
by
laying
in
waite
,
by
treason
,
by
charging
them
with
heresie
,
by
taking
away
their
good
name
,
and
by
causing
them
to
bee
hated
of
all
people
:
euermore
imagining
with
himselfe
,
that
by
these
persecutions
,
hee
shall
so
wast
and
destroy
them
,
that
at
the
length
the
remembrance
of
them
shall
be
cleerely
extinct
from
the
face
of
the
earth
.
Howbeit
the
more
blood
he
spilleth
,
the
more
the
Church
of
God
increaseth
;
and
the
longer
thinketh
to
put
off
the
day
of
iudgement
,
the
sooner
shall
it
be
hastened
for
the
chosen
sake
,
and
for
the
destruction
of
the
wicked
worlde
,
and
of
him
in
the
midst
thereof
.
Fourthly
,
when
the
worlde
shall
perceiue
so
great
troubles
to
arise
by
preaching
of
the
Gospel
,
and
that
no
temporall
benefite
commeth
thereby
;
that
it
causeth
kingdomes
to
bee
at
warres
one
against
another
,
that
there
be
as
great
or
greater
famines
,
plagues
,
and
earthquakes
as
euer
,
that
iniquitie
aboundeth
more
that
euer
,
that
the
loue
of
men
&
faith
towards
God
,
is
lesse
than
euer
,
that
Gods
displeasure
is
more
greeuous
than
euer
.
Finally
that
the
Pope
for
all
the
preaching
against
him
,
can
no
more
be
remoued
out
of
his
seate
than
euer
:
the
vngodly
seede
of
Antichrist
are
so
offended
therewith
,
as
they
betray
into
wicked
hands
their
owne
countrimen
,
their
kinred
and
acquaintance
,
yea
they
hate
their
own
brethren
,
&
seek
their
destruction
.
And
this
did
Christ
foreshewe
to
happen
in
the
ende
of
the
world
.
Fiftly
he
declared
,
that
at
the
same
time
manie
false
Prophetes
should
arise
and
deceiue
a
multitude
.
For
when
Antichrist
perceiued
,
that
he
might
not
preuaile
by
anie
of
those
vile
and
violent
meanes
that
hee
had
practized
,
but
that
his
power
neuerthelesse
decreased
,
and
his
al
hominable
superstition
and
idolatrie
was
daily
more
and
more
disclosed
,
he
erected
certein
Seminarie
places
for
learning
,
with
good
maintenaunce
to
the
same
,
for
all
those
that
would
resort
vnto
them
of
all
nations
,
to
the
ende
they
might
bee
sent
home
againe
,
after
they
haue
been
certeine
yeres
ripened
and
rottened
in
superstitious
doctrine
,
that
by
their
fained
hypocrisie
,
and
by
their
false
fables
and
prophesies
,
they
might
reconcile
all
those
that
were
fled
from
the
Antichristian
faith
,
promising
them
so
manie
and
so
great
matters
,
as
their
holy
Father
by
his
Commission
had
giuen
them
in
charge
:
And
these
ministers
of
his
be
they
which
Paule
the
Apostle
said
,
To
haue
the
forme
of
godlinesse
,
but
denie
the
power
thereof
:
&
haue
by
their
false
prophesies
,
Againe
Christ
hath
declared
,
that
before
the
iudgment
day
,
iniquitie
shall
abound
,
and
the
loue
of
manie
shall
wexe
colde
.
But
what
kinde
of
iniquitie
do
we
think
shal
abound
before
the
second
coming
of
Christ
?
Verelie
al
kinde
of
sine
and
wickednesse
,
that
euer
was
in
the
world
since
the
creation
of
the
same
,
not
onely
the
secrete
sinnes
that
proceede
from
mans
heart
,
whereby
the
whole
man
is
corrupted
,
but
the
publike
offences
and
enormities
done
by
man
against
man
,
against
God
,
against
the
Church
,
against
the
Common
weale
,
and
against
all
iustice
,
godlinesse
and
Religion
.
And
is
it
anie
maruell
,
why
all
wickednesse
shoulde
abounde
now
towards
the
ende
,
more
than
euer
before
?
why
the
charitie
of
man
towardes
man
,
why
the
loue
of
man
towardes
God
,
why
the
zeale
of
man
towardes
godlinesse
,
should
now
bee
lesse
than
before
?
though
now
the
word
of
God
be
more
plentifullie
preached
that
before
;
the
sacraments
more
sincerely
ministred
than
before
heresies
&
false
worshipping
more
sōudlie
conuinced
than
before
:
the
true
Church
from
the
false
more
euidently
discerned
than
before
,
Antichrist
himselfe
more
plainly
detected
than
before
;
and
our
saluation
now
more
neere
at
hand
than
before
?
No
verely
.
For
now
is
the
time
that
Christ
prescribed
,
&
neuer
before
.
Now
is
Sathan
our
olde
enimie
loosed
,
now
it
Antichrist
his
seruant
reuealed
.
For
euer
since
the
time
that
the
kingdome
of
Christ
hath
been
reuiued
by
preaching
of
the
Gospell
,
the
Dragon
hauing
the
time
of
his
thousand
yeeres
captiuitie
welneere
expired
,
and
perceiuing
his
dominion
to
be
but
short
,
is
come
foorth
to
aide
and
strengthen
,
and
heale
the
wound
of
the
beast
,
against
the
Saintes
of
God
,
and
against
the
Lambe
.
Who
ioyning
their
forces
together
,
seeke
by
their
craftie
and
lying
hypocrisie
,
not
onely
to
bereaue
men
of
their
saluation
,
by
deceiuing
and
bewitching
of
their
soules
,
and
by
driuing
them
forwarde
to
all
manner
of
sinne
and
wickednesse
,
but
also
to
destroy
their
bodies
and
all
,
by
bringing
in
vpon
them
all
manner
of
cruel
Inquisitions
,
warres
,
torments
,
miseries
and
deathes
that
man
can
deuise
.
Wherefore
the
nature
of
man
being
euer
more
and
more
corrupted
,
since
the
fall
of
Adam
,
&
therewithall
driuen
by
the
violent
inticement
of
sin
,
and
perswasion
of
the
diuell
,
it
is
not
possible
without
the
mightie
assistance
of
Gods
spirite
,
but
that
iniquitie
should
not
onely
abound
,
but
euen
nowe
be
growen
to
the
full
.
And
to
speake
more
particularlie
of
the
sinnes
,
against
God
,
against
man
,
and
against
our
owne
selues
;
I
say
,
that
they
doe
now
by
meanes
of
Antichrist
and
his
adherentes
more
infinitely
abounde
,
than
euer
.
Whereby
it
may
euidently
appeare
,
that
the
dissolulution
of
all
thinges
is
at
hande
.
Was
not
Lucifer
an
Angell
of
light
,
and
desired
in
his
heart
to
be
but
equal
with
God
?
And
is
Antichrist
any
more
than
man
,
somewhat
lower
than
the
Angels
,
and
yet
exalteth
himselfe
aboue
God
?
Did
Adam
breake
any
more
commaundements
of
God
then
one
,
when
he
was
ashamed
and
cast
out
of
Paradice
?
But
do
not
we
daylie
breake
all
the
commaundements
of
God
,
and
yet
are
not
once
ashamed
of
our
nakednesse
?
Was
not
Cayn
counted
a
reprobat
,
because
he
was
angrie
with
God
,
and
killed
his
owne
brother
about
the
accepting
of
their
sacrifices
?
But
are
not
wee
euery
day
vexed
and
disquieted
against
God
,
if
but
the
least
attempt
that
we
go
about
succeed
not
according
to
our
desire
?
But
bee
there
not
also
as
greeuous
and
horrible
paricides
and
murders
among
vs
,
euen
for
the
smallest
and
least
occasions
?
Was
it
not
counted
a
monstrous
and
horrible
Idolatrie
of
the
Children
of
Israel
,
when
they
forgot
God
that
had
brought
them
out
of
the
land
of
Egipt
,
and
worshipped
a
golden
Calfe
which
they
themselues
had
made
,
because
that
Moses
the
seruant
of
God
and
their
generall
Captaine
,
was
but
fourtie
dayes
absent
from
them
.
Agayne
,
is
not
the
Idolatrie
in
these
dayes
of
them
that
professe
the
name
of
Christ
,
beyond
al
comparison
greater
,
when
they
forsake
him
that
redeemed
them
from
the
power
of
Sathan
,
and
do
daylie
worship
stockes
and
stones
,
and
a
peece
of
vnleauened
bread
,
when
as
Christ
himselfe
their
head
and
Captaine
is
continually
present
with
them
by
his
holy
Saincts
and
Godhead
,
vntill
the
end
of
the
world
?
Was
not
the
infidelitie
of
the
Children
of
Israell
counted
exceeding
great
,
when
as
they
beleeued
not
the
promises
of
GOD
,
who
had
done
so
great
wonders
for
them
,
both
in
Egipt
and
at
the
red
Sea
?
For
which
cause
they
themselues
were
destroyed
,
and
their
children
were
made
to
wander
fourtie
yeares
in
the
wildernesse
for
the
sinnes
of
their
fathers
.
But
is
not
the
infidelitie
of
the
Christians
in
our
time
much
more
horrible
,
when
as
GOD
hath
done
for
them
farre
greater
thinges
,
then
euer
he
did
for
the
Children
of
Israell
,
euen
by
sending
his
owne
Sonne
for
their
sakes
into
the
world
,
to
deliuer
them
from
the
slauerie
of
Sathan
,
and
euerlasting
destruction
of
bodie
and
soule
;
where
he
keepeth
them
as
the
apple
of
his
eye
,
from
being
consumed
of
the
nations
round
about
them
;
when
hee
talketh
with
them
daylie
and
familiarlie
from
heauen
out
of
his
holie
worde
,
when
hee
feedeth
them
from
aboue
with
his
owne
precious
bodie
;
when
hee
indueth
them
with
grace
supernaturall
by
his
holie
spirite
;
when
hee
blesseth
them
with
all
his
benefites
both
bodily
and
ghostly
;
and
yet
are
not
we
more
vnfaithfull
,
vnthankfull
,
and
vnfruitfull
,
than
the
Children
of
Israell
?
They
beleeued
not
,
because
the
time
of
the
promises
vnto
them
made
,
was
not
yet
perfourmed
:
wee
beleeue
not
when
all
the
prophesies
deliuered
to
vs
in
the
Scriptures
,
bee
alreadie
fulfilled
.
They
grudged
and
wauered
,
when
they
were
wandering
in
the
desolate
wildernesse
,
wanting
many
pleasures
and
delights
of
this
deceiuing
life
:
wee
mistrust
,
though
we
now
be
in
a
delightfull
and
pleasant
land
,
and
abound
in
all
worldlie
comforts
that
can
be
deuised
for
man
.
They
misdoubted
the
first
comming
of
Messias
,
because
the
words
proceded
from
the
mouths
of
men
:
but
manie
of
vs
beleeue
not
his
second
comming
,
though
he
himselfe
haue
absolutely
promised
,
and
shewed
the
tokens
of
the
same
,
by
his
owne
holy
word
.
And
so
iniquitie
and
incredulitie
abound
this
day
,
beyond
all
the
ages
and
times
of
the
worlde
.
Wherefore
the
Lord
must
of
necessitie
come
to
deliuer
his
people
from
the
intollerable
burden
thereof
.
Againe
,
was
not
the
disobedience
and
murmuring
of
Israel
against
God
,
and
against
Moses
his
Lieutenant
,
so
incomparable
great
,
as
the
earth
opened
and
swallowed
vp
the
principall
leaders
of
that
conspiracie
,
and
all
their
habitations
and
families
?
Yea
,
so
angrie
was
the
Lord
with
this
sinne
,
that
had
it
not
been
for
Moses
sake
,
hee
woulde
then
haue
dispatched
the
whole
generation
of
them
from
the
face
of
the
earth
.
But
if
we
will
but
looke
into
the
Christianitie
,
&
see
what
disobedience
there
is
to
the
commandementes
of
God
,
what
continuall
murmuringes
against
him
,
what
daylie
discontentments
with
the
blessings
that
he
sendeth
:
what
rebellions
,
conspiracies
,
and
seditions
,
against
the
Princes
which
be
his
Lieutenaunts
,
yea
,
what
treasons
&
trecheries
against
the
royall
person
of
their
Souereignes
.
Nay
what
banding
there
is
against
Christ
&
his
Church
,
to
roote
out
both
him
and
his
holie
word
,
that
neither
of
them
should
haue
anie
more
being
in
the
world
,
wee
shall
finde
that
the
burden
of
iniquitie
is
at
this
day
so
exceeding
heauie
,
as
the
foundations
of
the
world
being
so
farre
out
of
course
,
must
needs
fall
to
ruine
and
desolation
.
Moreouer
,
within
what
age
and
memorie
of
man
is
is
knowen
;
in
what
writings
ethnicke
or
christian
hath
it
bene
founde
;
nay
,
by
what
place
of
Scripture
can
it
be
prooued
,
(
especiallie
since
the
former
destruction
of
the
world
by
waters
)
that
the
sinne
of
lust
&
fornication
did
so
generally
inuade
the
whole
world
,
as
it
doth
at
this
present
daye
?
What
sinne
doeth
so
speedely
procure
the
displeasure
of
God
,
the
destruction
of
the
vngodly
,
and
the
finall
ende
of
all
thinges
by
fier
,
as
doth
the
flame
of
lust
and
concupisence
?
But
what
needeth
mee
to
recite
the
greatnesse
of
this
sinne
,
when
the
vengeance
and
punishments
that
God
hath
brought
,
and
daily
doth
bring
vpon
fornicatours
and
adulterers
,
both
among
Infidels
and
Christians
,
in
euerie
age
,
and
in
all
families
and
kingdomes
,
doth
euidently
shew
the
same
.
And
albeit
we
knowe
,
that
for
this
sinne
specially
,
God
burned
vp
the
cities
of
Sodome
and
Gomorrhe
into
ashes
;
that
he
slewe
in
one
day
three
or
foure
and
twentie
thousand
Isaclites
,
for
committing
that
abhomination
with
the
daughters
of
Moab
:
albeit
I
say
,
we
know
that
this
sinne
so
sore
displeaseth
our
God
,
impaireth
our
credite
,
wasteth
our
goods
,
weakneth
our
bodies
,
dulleth
our
memories
,
tormenteth
our
mindes
,
and
worketh
al
manner
of
woe
both
to
soule
and
bodie
in
this
life
,
and
keepeth
vs
from
inheriting
of
euerlasting
life
in
the
world
to
come
:
yet
doe
we
in
this
age
take
such
vile
and
filthie
pleasure
therein
,
as
we
exceede
all
the
abhomination
of
Sodom
:
and
therein
the
world
may
seeme
to
match
all
the
Generations
that
haue
gone
before
vs
.
And
the
greatest
cause
why
God
hath
not
yet
powred
vpon
vs
the
same
or
greater
vengeance
than
he
did
vpon
our
forefathers
,
is
because
hee
hath
nowe
but
a
short
time
of
patience
,
and
then
commeth
the
day
of
vengeance
.
For
he
hath
alreadie
sounded
his
Trumpet
vnto
iudgement
,
he
hath
signified
by
his
prophets
,
he
hath
pronounced
by
his
Preachers
,
hee
hath
published
by
his
signes
and
tokens
,
and
hee
hath
opened
plainelie
by
the
word
of
his
promise
,
that
hee
commeth
speedelie
like
a
Lion
vpon
his
enemies
,
and
to
reward
with
destruction
and
vengeance
,
all
them
that
worke
wickednesse
.
But
I
am
ashamed
to
speake
of
the
loathsome
and
horrible
sinne
of
drunkennesse
and
surfetting
:
For
although
there
be
diuers
other
sinnes
,
wherein
for
the
vilenesse
of
them
,
men
may
be
compared
with
brute
beasts
:
yet
in
this
sinne
,
men
without
all
comparison
excell
all
beasts
and
liuing
creatures
in
the
world
.
For
beasts
being
voide
of
all
reason
,
yet
doe
they
knowe
what
is
necessarie
and
sufficient
for
them
:
and
therefore
doe
they
rarelie
or
neuer
take
anie
more
sustenaunce
than
is
meete
for
their
health
,
although
they
haue
neuer
so
great
plentie
ministred
vnto
them
.
But
man
,
that
is
indued
with
reason
and
speech
,
the
two
principall
things
whereby
he
is
discerned
from
other
beasts
,
and
whereby
he
hath
the
dominion
of
them
;
during
the
time
that
he
is
occupied
in
the
sinne
of
drunkennesse
,
he
is
not
onelie
depriued
of
that
excellent
knowledge
and
gouernment
,
that
God
hath
giuen
him
aboue
other
creatures
,
but
while
his
head
is
ouercharged
with
wine
,
he
hath
neither
the
power
of
vnderstanding
,
nor
the
sense
of
feeling
,
that
other
beasts
haue
.
O
most
horrible
and
cruell
sinne
,
O
monstrous
disease
of
the
flesh
,
howe
easelie
mightest
thou
be
lefte
,
what
little
neede
hath
man
of
thee
,
and
yet
what
dangerous
and
deadlie
enormities
dost
thou
bring
vpon
him
,
both
against
himselfe
,
against
his
neighbour
,
against
the
Commonweale
,
and
against
the
commaundements
of
our
gracious
God
?
He
that
is
ouerloden
with
wine
and
strong
drinke
,
foultreth
in
his
speech
,
reeleth
too
&
fro
,
falleth
on
the
ground
,
or
tumbleth
into
the
ditch
;
the
world
goeth
round
about
him
,
shame
doth
not
lay
holde
on
him
,
but
others
are
ashamed
for
him
.
The
presence
of
persons
doth
not
feare
him
,
euerie
man
scorneth
him
,
euerie
man
shunneth
him
,
euerie
man
derideth
him
,
but
nothing
doth
greeue
him
.
Againe
,
he
whose
head
is
not
so
deepelie
drowned
in
drinke
,
but
is
ouer
merie
therewith
,
&
hath
fraighted
his
bodie
,
and
pampered
his
bellie
,
as
well
with
meate
as
drinke
,
how
slow
is
he
to
all
vertue
,
&
how
prone
is
he
to
al
kind
of
mischiefe
?
Pouertie
,
woe
,
strife
,
sorowe
,
bralling
and
wounds
without
a
cause
,
followe
them
that
delight
in
wine
and
delicate
fare
.
And
,
Through
gluttonie
commeth
sickenesse
,
and
by
surfetting
,
death
.
O
that
men
woulde
also
weight
the
greatnesse
of
this
sinne
,
by
considering
the
mischiefs
that
it
bringeth
.
For
besides
that
it
destroyeth
the
health
of
the
bodie
,
and
shorteneth
mans
life
,
it
also
alienateth
the
minde
,
prouoketh
anger
,
stirreth
vp
lusts
,
consumeth
riches
,
discouereth
secrets
,
peruerteth
iudgement
:
it
causeth
sloth
in
the
bodie
,
dulnesse
in
wit
,
weaknesse
in
the
memorie
,
and
vnwillingnesse
to
euerie
good
action
.
The
abundaunce
that
is
consumed
by
this
one
onelie
vice
,
woulde
supply
all
the
wantes
in
the
Common
weale
.
The
forbearing
of
one
meale
within
this
kingdome
of
all
the
people
but
once
in
a
yere
,
would
feed
a
mightie
Armie
a
whole
moneth
.
The
sparing
of
one
dish
but
once
in
a
day
,
of
them
that
haue
manie
dainties
at
their
table
,
woulde
satisfie
the
poore
that
lie
in
miserie
at
their
gate
.
The
superfluitie
of
fare
,
that
is
spent
in
one
dayes
interteinment
,
would
giue
reliefe
to
all
that
be
lame
and
impotent
.
The
monie
that
is
spent
in
strong
and
needlesse
drinke
,
would
pay
all
the
duties
that
belong
to
a
Prince
.
Neuerthelesse
,
so
vile
and
corrupt
is
the
nature
of
man
,
so
desperately
doeth
hee
runne
into
his
owne
fleshly
desires
,
that
though
hee
knewe
his
poore
and
needie
brother
shoulde
perish
for
want
,
that
his
Countrie
and
Common
weale
should
be
in
distresse
,
nay
that
his
own
life
should
lye
vpon
the
abstinence
of
one
meale
,
or
forbearing
of
one
match
at
drinking
,
he
would
not
leaue
his
greedie
appetite
.
Although
men
at
this
day
are
ashamed
to
see
such
beastlinesse
in
others
:
Albeit
they
are
greeued
when
they
heare
of
the
drunkennesse
of
Noah
,
when
his
two
sonnes
couered
him
:
of
Lot
,
when
he
lay
with
his
own
daughters
.
Although
they
know
that
death
was
pronounced
against
Aaron
,
let
vs
eate
and
drinke
,
and
bee
merie
:
for
to
morrow
we
shall
die
.
Nothing
at
this
day
but
eating
,
nothing
but
drinking
,
nothing
but
powring
in
of
cups
from
morning
to
night
,
and
from
night
to
morning
,
and
so
al
their
life
long
,
without
respect
of
time
,
or
place
,
or
holie
dya
,
or
Sabboth
day
;
without
feare
of
lawes
,
without
feare
of
life
,
without
feare
of
God
,
and
without
feare
of
damnation
,
or
any
hope
of
saluation
.
Wherefore
this
vice
beeing
greater
than
euer
,
requireth
a
greater
vengeance
,
and
speedier
comming
vnto
iudgement
,
than
euer
.
But
I
tremble
at
this
day
with
horrour
and
greefe
,
when
I
heare
the
name
of
the
Lorde
to
bee
so
commonly
and
continually
taken
in
vayne
,
and
to
bee
dishonored
in
euery
corner
.
For
,
wheras
we
are
straightly
charged
,
that
we
should
not
sweare
,
neither
by
heauen
,
nor
by
the
earth
,
nor
by
any
other
othe
;
so
wicked
and
peruerse
is
the
nature
of
man
,
so
crosse
and
contrarie
to
the
will
and
commaundement
of
God
,
so
vntoward
to
that
he
should
,
and
so
readie
to
that
hee
should
not
,
that
whatsoeuer
he
is
most
forbidden
,
that
doth
he
most
insue
.
If
there
bee
any
corner
,
whereinto
he
may
start
from
the
impunitie
of
mans
lawe
,
thether
doth
he
runne
headlong
without
regarde
of
any
diuine
prohibition
,
and
without
feare
of
Gods
terrible
iudgement
and
condemnation
.
And
for
this
cause
,
where
a
publike
weale
hath
made
no
expresse
lawe
for
the
punishment
of
swearing
,
there
men
make
no
conscience
of
any
othe
in
the
world
;
there
heauen
and
earth
is
no
othe
with
them
;
there
the
creatures
of
God
are
nothing
with
them
;
there
the
Lord
of
hoasts
is
nothing
with
them
;
the
name
of
his
blessed
Sonne
is
nothing
with
them
;
nay
,
all
the
precious
members
of
our
Sauiour
that
suffered
for
vs
,
are
too
little
for
them
to
bee
a
testimonie
of
all
their
vntruthes
,
of
all
their
vilanies
,
of
all
their
abhominations
that
they
worke
in
the
worlde
.
But
if
they
promise
or
vowe
any
thing
which
they
haue
any
minde
to
perfourme
,
or
if
they
would
iustifie
themselues
in
any
thing
wherein
their
conscience
cleereth
them
,
that
will
they
affirme
by
that
little
trueth
and
faith
which
they
haue
:
But
if
they
be
stirred
vp
vnto
furie
;
if
their
bloud
be
warmed
with
surfeting
and
drunkennesse
;
if
they
be
greedie
of
reuenge
agaynst
such
as
haue
offended
them
;
if
they
promise
to
meete
vpon
any
wicked
enterprise
,
if
it
be
for
the
sauing
of
a
small
penie
in
their
purse
,
or
for
defence
of
their
credite
in
a
playne
vntruth
,
in
euery
trifling
matter
,
in
euery
vayne
enterprise
,
in
euery
idle
game
,
and
communication
,
and
action
,
that
will
they
confirme
with
the
most
vehement
and
mightie
othes
that
they
can
deuise
.
The
blessed
and
diuine
soule
of
Christ
,
the
precious
and
deere
bloud
of
the
Lambe
immaculat
,
and
all
the
glorious
and
excellent
members
of
Christ
:
nay
,
be
Maiestie
of
Christ
,
and
of
the
Father
himselfe
,
are
nothing
in
their
vile
and
vnpurre
lippes
.
This
I
say
is
the
naughtie
nature
of
man
,
to
bee
euer
contrarie
to
the
commaundements
of
God
.
If
GOD
had
commaunded
vs
that
whatsoeuer
wee
promise
,
or
affirme
,
or
answere
,
or
iustifie
in
this
life
,
wee
should
call
heauen
and
earth
to
record
,
or
his
creatures
,
or
himselfe
,
or
some
of
his
bodily
members
,
we
should
neuer
haue
heard
an
othe
in
this
worlde
.
But
because
hee
forbad
vs
all
these
thinges
,
and
that
our
affirmation
should
bee
nothing
but
yea
and
nay
,
therefore
wee
most
impudentlie
abuse
all
his
creatures
,
and
most
shamefully
blaspheme
the
name
of
GOD
,
in
all
our
wordes
,
in
all
our
affirmations
,
iustifications
,
and
actions
:
and
therfore
shall
all
these
bee
a
testimonie
agaynst
vs
in
the
day
of
iudgement
.
Looke
well
vnto
it
therfore
,
ye
that
be
these
luftie
and
wilfull
swearers
in
the
world
,
ye
that
call
the
Lorde
of
hostes
so
often
to
witnesse
with
your
vntruths
and
vanities
,
bee
yee
sure
that
the
Lorde
is
not
deafe
,
but
doth
heare
you
:
hee
hath
registred
&
written
vp
all
the
idle
words
that
ye
haue
spoken
,
in
your
banqueting
,
in
your
surfetings
,
in
your
gamings
,
and
in
al
the
loose
and
lewd
behauiour
of
your
liues
:
hee
hath
written
in
the
face
of
euerie
creature
,
all
the
testimonies
that
ye
called
them
to
witnesse
with
you
;
much
more
shall
yee
finde
printed
in
his
presence
,
nay
,
yee
shall
haue
it
engrauen
both
in
your
owne
conscience
,
and
in
the
Maiestie
of
his
person
,
all
the
wilfull
and
rash
othes
,
wherby
ye
haue
called
him
to
record
:
and
vnlesse
you
speedely
repent
you
in
this
life
,
and
cease
for
euer
to
blaspheme
the
name
of
God
as
yee
haue
done
:
yee
shall
shortly
come
before
the
supreme
Iudge
,
where
it
shall
be
so
hardly
layd
to
your
charge
,
as
ye
shal
wish
that
the
mountaines
might
couer
you
,
and
the
earth
shadow
you
from
the
presence
of
God
,
whom
you
haue
so
highly
displeased
.
For
the
horrible
sinne
of
swearing
is
so
continually
accustomed
in
your
mouths
,
and
the
name
of
God
and
of
his
holy
members
,
is
so
abused
in
your
actions
,
as
he
can
no
longer
indure
the
wickednesse
thereof
,
but
wil
hasten
himselfe
vnto
iudgement
.
Now
,
if
these
sinnes
,
besides
manie
others
that
I
might
recite
,
doe
so
abound
at
this
day
in
the
hearts
of
men
,
and
doe
breake
out
so
mightily
in
their
actions
,
as
the
things
themselues
declare
,
that
the
day
of
iudgment
is
at
hand
;
what
shall
we
say
of
the
sinne
of
couetousnesse
,
the
roote
and
welspring
of
all
other
mischiefes
.
Wherein
men
at
this
day
doe
so
farre
exceed
the
measure
of
our
forefathers
,
as
the
later
wee
are
borne
,
the
more
corruption
we
haue
receiued
:
&
the
neerer
to
the
day
of
the
Lord
,
the
lesse
affection
haue
we
to
heauenly
things
,
and
the
more
desire
of
worldlie
vanities
.
And
albeit
this
sinne
of
coueting
,
bee
set
downe
as
a
capital
crime
in
the
holy
Scriptures
,
yet
do
we
make
small
account
of
the
same
.
Howbeit
,
if
the
children
of
Israel
fled
before
their
enimies
,
Now
come
wee
to
the
last
token
and
restimonie
of
the
comming
of
Christ
,
namelie
;
That
the
Gospell
shal
be
preached
in
all
the
world
,
for
a
witnes
vnto
all
nations
:
and
then
shall
the
ende
come
.
As
I
wrote
before
,
that
the
reuealing
of
Antichrist
and
man
of
sinne
,
which
sitteth
in
the
Temple
of
God
,
should
be
the
first
token
of
that
second
comming
of
Christ
:
so
the
preaching
of
the
Gospell
ouer
all
the
world
,
both
by
the
circumstance
of
the
Euangelicall
historie
,
and
by
the
consequence
of
the
thinges
themselues
,
must
of
necessitie
bee
the
last
token
before
his
comming
.
And
this
is
also
confirmed
by
Iohn
in
the
Reuelation
,
when
he
saith
;
Giue
glorie
to
God
,
for
the
hower
of
his
iudgment
is
come
.
And
immediatelie
after
this
preaching
of
the
word
,
an
other
Angell
crieth
,
Babylon
is
falne
,
that
great
Citie
is
falne
,
that
made
all
Nations
drinke
of
the
Cup
of
her
fornication
.
For
if
there
bee
no
other
way
to
make
Babylon
to
fall
,
to
reueale
Antichrist
the
enimie
of
Christ
,
and
to
banish
the
Apostasie
of
the
Church
procured
by
the
same
Antichrist
,
but
the
preaching
of
the
word
and
free
course
of
the
Gospek
then
is
there
also
no
other
way
to
inlarge
the
kingdom
of
Christ
,
&
to
gather
the
Saints
of
God
into
one
,
but
onely
the
free
course
and
publication
of
the
Gospell
:
which
by
litle
and
litle
shall
consume
as
it
hath
gebun
the
spirite
of
error
and
apostasie
of
the
Church
,
till
the
brightnes
of
Christes
presence
haue
vtterly
destroyed
the
same
,
&
al
the
authors
&
abettors
thereof
.
Wherfore
whatsoeuer
other
tokens
shal
be
at
the
verie
comming
of
Christ
(
as
no
doubt
but
ther
shal
be
many
both
in
the
Sunne
and
Moone
,
and
starres
,
and
in
al
the
creatures
of
God
,
as
behoueth
in
so
great
an
alteration
&
consummation
of
the
worlde
,
And
then
shal
the
ende
come
:
And
when
the
Angels
after
preaching
of
the
word
said
,
The
houre
of
iudgement
is
come
:
thrust
in
thy
sythe
and
reape
,
for
the
haruest
is
ripe
.
As
if
he
should
say
,
When
Antichrist
of
Rome
,
which
exalteth
himselfe
aboue
me
,
shal
be
reuealed
to
be
the
principal
head
that
hath
caused
so
great
a
falling
away
from
the
truth
in
my
Church
,
hee
shall
trouble
and
persecute
you
to
the
death
:
he
shall
make
nation
to
rise
against
nation
,
for
vpholding
of
his
damnable
heresie
,
and
hee
shall
cause
you
to
bee
hated
for
my
sake
:
but
feare
not
my
little
ones
;
for
when
yee
shall
see
all
these
troubles
to
happen
,
bee
ye
sure
that
my
comming
,
and
your
redemption
draweth
nigh
.
For
my
word
shall
runne
out
very
swiftly
,
and
in
a
short
space
consume
that
which
he
by
his
hypocrisie
and
tyrannie
had
in
many
yeares
contriued
.
He
that
hath
caused
al
Princes
to
drinke
of
the
poysoned
cuppe
of
his
fornication
,
him
will
I
sodainly
destroy
with
the
breath
of
my
mouth
.
Yea
,
and
least
ye
should
any
longer
bee
deceiued
by
his
false
signes
and
deceiuable
errors
,
my
word
shall
be
published
in
all
the
world
,
and
then
is
the
time
of
my
comming
,
then
is
the
haruest
of
the
earth
ripe
,
and
then
will
I
thrust
in
my
sickle
and
reape
.
And
this
publication
of
the
Gospell
ouer
all
the
world
is
the
second
sound
vnto
iudgment
.
For
as
our
Sauiour
Christ
gaue
the
first
sound
,
when
he
sent
foorth
his
Apostles
,
and
commaunded
them
to
teach
all
nations
,
Now
that
wee
haue
breefly
declared
all
the
signes
and
tokens
,
which
the
holy
Ghost
hath
promised
in
the
Scriptures
to
come
to
passe
before
the
ende
of
the
world
,
wee
must
also
with
the
like
perspicuitie
,
examine
whether
this
be
not
the
time
,
or
very
neere
thervnto
that
Christ
shall
come
agayne
in
glorie
to
iudge
both
the
quick
and
the
dead
,
which
is
the
second
part
of
this
discourse
.
For
albeit
that
he
hath
set
downe
all
these
tokens
of
his
comming
so
exactly
and
in
such
order
,
as
it
is
vnpossible
,
but
that
anie
man
capable
of
reason
may
vnderstande
when
the
last
token
is
fulfilled
:
yet
hath
he
also
confirmed
the
same
by
other
inuincible
reasons
,
drawen
partlie
from
such
thinges
as
we
sensiblie
and
daylie
perceiue
,
and
partlie
from
his
owne
power
and
omnipotencie
.
Learne
(
saith
he
)
of
the
figge
tree
when
the
branches
bee
tender
,
and
hath
put
forth
leaues
,
for
then
ye
be
sure
that
the
summer
is
〈◊〉
hand
.
Againe
,
Heauen
and
earth
shall
perish
,
but
my
word
shall
not
perish
.
As
if
he
might
say
:
When
all
these
tokens
that
I
haue
spoken
of
be
fulfilled
,
ye
shall
be
sure
that
I
will
then
come
:
and
the
last
token
before
my
comming
is
,
That
the
Gospel
of
my
kingdom
shal
be
preached
in
all
the
world
,
for
a
witnesse
vnto
all
Nations
:
And
there
shall
not
be
a
kingdome
in
the
worlde
,
but
either
at
the
first
sounding
of
my
word
,
or
at
the
second
,
shall
heare
that
I
am
the
Sauiour
and
redeemer
of
mankinde
.
Beholde
I
haue
spoken
it
:
Heauen
and
earth
shall
passe
away
,
before
one
iot
of
my
worde
passe
.
These
I
say
be
the
verie
tokens
&
times
before
his
comming
.
Albeit
to
speake
of
the
hower
,
or
day
,
or
month
,
nay
of
the
yere
it selfe
wherm
he
wil
com
,
were
high
pride
and
presumption
:
seeing
there
is
neither
man
nor
angel
that
knoweth
it
.
But
this
we
know
for
certeintie
:
that
manie
Ages
past
,
the
Gospell
was
published
welneere
in
all
Asia
,
Aphrica
and
Europe
:
a
number
of
which
Nations
for
their
vnthankfulnesse
were
depriued
of
the
benefit
thereof
,
and
manie
other
are
falne
into
great
Apostasie
.
Also
we
see
it
plaine
,
that
in
this
age
of
ours
,
the
glad
tidings
of
Christ
,
hath
after
some
sort
bin
caried
vnto
al
the
barbarous
nations
in
the
nether
part
of
the
world
:
&
we
liue
in
continual
hope
that
in
short
space
it
shal
be
more
sincerly
&
more
vniuersallie
published
than
hetherto
it
hath
bin
;
which
being
proclaimed
,
we
may
then
bee
bolde
to
say
,
that
Christ
is
at
the
verie
point
of
his
comming
.
And
yet
neuertheles
al
that
is
no
hindrance
,
but
that
it
behoueth
vs
both
thus
day
,
&
to
morrow
,
&
euerie
day
&
night
&
hower
,
to
watch
&
be
readie
with
our
lampes
burning
,
left
the
Bridegrome
take
vs
vpon
the
sodaine
&
vnprouided
of
oyle
;
&
so
while
we
expect
yet
some
longer
time
of
his
comming
,
we
bee
quite
excluded
out
of
the
kingdome
of
heauen
.
Al
these
things
haue
I
affirmed
and
prooued
out
of
the
infallible
worde
of
God
,
&
by
that
which
we
haue
seen
with
our
eyes
,
&
do
vnderstand
of
our
owne
knowledge
to
be
alreadie
come
to
passe
,
most
agreeablie
to
the
worde
of
God
.
Wherby
we
may
be
assured
,
that
if
anie
thing
be
yet
to
come
that
the
Scriptures
haue
promised
touching
the
end
of
the
world
,
the
same
shal
shortly
&
in
his
due
time
be
performed
.
And
this
was
my
special
purpose
in
this
Treatise
to
proue
:
that
because
the
foolish
,
vngodlie
,
&
vnbeleeuing
nature
of
men
,
is
in
these
daies
beyond
all
other
ages
and
times
before
,
so
curious
to
search
&
inquire
for
the
time
of
Christes
comming
,
which
time
God
hath
reserued
to
himselfe
;
I
might
draw
them
,
(
as
much
as
is
possible
)
from
seeking
the
same
at
the
hands
of
men
,
(
from
whom
without
the
help
of
Gods
spirite
,
there
proceedeth
nothing
that
is
certain
,
or
true
,
or
godlie
)
&
send
them
to
the
most
true
,
and
certain
,
and
vndoubted
prophesie
of
the
word
of
God
.
Neuertheles
I
am
not
ignorant
,
that
there
be
also
manie
humane
reasons
,
manie
probable
coniectures
,
manie
temporal
signes
&
tokens
,
&
many
sufficient
arguments
concerning
the
end
of
the
world
,
that
do
concurre
with
the
prophesie
of
the
scriptures
:
al
which
as
long
as
they
serue
to
iustify
&
confirme
whatsoeuer
Christ
,
the
Prophetes
&
Apostles
haue
promised
concerning
the
same
,
we
must
rather
giue
credite
vnto
them
,
than
reiect
&
condemne
them
.
Among
which
are
al
those
reasons
which
are
commonly
made
to
ratifie
the
saying
of
Elias
,
that
the
world
shall
not
continue
the
full
of
6000.
yeres
:
which
prophesie
though
it
be
not
in
the
scriptures
,
but
cited
by
the
Rabbins
,
yet
because
all
the
other
parts
of
the
same
Prophesie
haue
succeeded
euery
thing
in
his
due
time
&
that
it
doth
so
well
concurre
with
the
tokens
,
that
Christ
shewed
for
the
end
of
the
world
,
and
with
that
saying
of
Christ
,
Those
dayes
shal
be
shortened
for
the
elect
sake
:
we
must
imbrace
the
same
as
a
true
prognosticate
,
religiously
descended
from
that
holie
Author
.
But
in
verie
deede
in
this
prophesie
of
Elias
is
contained
a
large
field
to
prooue
the
neerenesse
of
the
day
of
iudgement
:
howbeit
I
wil
not
walke
much
therein
,
because
I
knowe
it
hath
been
exactlie
handled
of
manie
.
Onelie
this
I
say
;
that
the
Scripture
it selfe
confirmeth
,
and
infallible
reason
prooueth
,
and
so
manie
tokens
both
of
heauen
aboue
,
and
of
the
earth
beneath
testifie
that
the
world
shall
not
last
to
the
end
of
sixe
thousand
yeeres
.
And
so
much
the
rather
,
when
we
plainelie
see
all
the
tokens
of
the
latter
day
to
be
now
welneere
fulfilled
.
And
I
haue
proued
,
that
there
are
not
aboue
70.
yeres
past
or
thereabout
since
the
last
and
most
reuealing
of
Antichrist
:
That
is
to
say
,
since
he
was
openlie
,
freelie
and
without
feare
published
to
be
that
sonne
of
perdition
.
Within
which
time
,
the
tokens
that
Christ
spoke
of
concerning
the
ende
of
the
worlde
,
are
alreadie
shewed
,
and
lacke
but
little
of
a
perfect
fulfilling
.
And
doe
we
thinke
,
that
when
so
great
and
so
manie
things
haue
been
accomplished
in
so
short
a
space
as
70.
yeres
,
that
the
verie
litle
or
nothing
which
remaineth
,
should
be
in
performing
400.
yeeres
and
moe
,
which
are
to
finish
vp
the
number
of
6000.
yeres
?
Or
may
we
not
not
referre
that
saying
of
Christ
(
This
generation
shall
not
be
past
,
till
all
these
things
be
fulfilled
.
And
againe
:
For
the
chosens
sake
these
dayes
shal
be
shortened
)
as
well
to
this
third
age
of
the
world
,
as
to
the
destruction
of
Ierusalem
,
which
was
but
50.
yeres
after
?
As
if
he
should
say
:
In
this
latter
age
of
the
world
,
and
especiallie
towards
the
ende
thereof
,
when
Antichrist
is
reuealed
,
and
Sathan
which
is
the
diuell
is
loosed
,
there
shal
be
so
great
famines
,
plagues
,
&
earthquakes
,
so
great
and
hortible
persecutions
,
such
leagues
and
conspiracies
of
Princes
against
my
Church
,
so
manie
false
Prophetes
to
deceaue
the
worlde
,
such
hating
and
betraying
one
of
another
,
yea
and
such
trouble
and
vexation
on
euerie
side
,
besides
the
iniquitie
that
shall
then
so
mightelie
abound
;
that
if
it
be
possible
the
verie
chosen
may
be
deceaued
.
Wherfore
,
for
their
sakes
I
wil
shorten
those
troublesome
dayes
,
and
will
cut
off
a
part
of
this
latter
age
,
so
that
it
shal
not
be
equall
to
the
other
ages
that
went
before
.
Besides
,
what
wonderfull
alterations
haue
wee
heard
of
and
seene
in
the
world
,
since
the
memorie
of
man
?
What
chaunge
in
the
nature
of
the
creatures
?
what
mutation
both
in
the
actions
and
affections
of
men
,
and
in
the
accidents
of
this
life
and
occurrents
of
estates
;
such
as
our
forefathers
in
many
hundreth
yeares
before
neuer
heard
of
?
All
which
things
,
since
they
most
and
chiefly
happened
or
began
about
the
time
that
the
Gospell
in
our
age
was
reuiued
by
preaching
,
and
when
the
kingdome
of
Christ
began
to
be
restored
,
they
bee
manifest
tokens
of
the
ende
of
the
world
.
Hath
not
these
many
and
mightie
Kingdomes
of
England
,
Scotland
,
Denmarke
,
Swethland
,
Poland
,
Germanie
,
Belgica
,
and
a
great
part
of
the
large
kingdome
of
Fraunce
(
all
which
be
as
much
as
the
rest
of
Christendome
)
retired
themselues
,
and
been
reclaymed
within
this
space
from
the
Romish
bondage
,
and
from
Antichristianitie
to
the
true
worshipping
of
Christ
,
by
beleeuing
of
the
Gospell
preached
vnto
them
?
Was
not
the
Arte
and
skill
of
Printing
deuised
by
Christians
,
and
specially
practised
in
our
time
;
by
the
meanes
wherof
,
though
not
only
,
yet
chiefly
all
other
Religions
in
the
world
are
found
to
bee
most
shamefull
and
Idolatrous
:
and
only
the
true
and
sincere
worshipping
of
Christ
magnified
and
extolled
in
all
the
world
?
Were
not
all
the
learned
tongues
and
languages
renued
by
Christians
in
our
time
,
from
a
rude
barbarisme
(
wherein
they
had
many
ages
been
a
sleepe
)
to
an
excellent
and
perfect
fourme
both
of
speaking
and
writing
?
Is
not
the
desire
of
Christians
in
our
time
,
more
earnestly
bent
to
seeke
a
perfection
of
all
Arts
and
Sciences
,
and
a
more
exquisite
forme
of
Religion
then
euer
was
in
any
age
before
vs
since
the
sincere
times
of
the
Primitiue
Church
?
Were
not
all
the
order
and
maner
of
Instruments
and
habiliments
of
warre
and
warfare
in
our
age
,
wel
neere
contrarie
to
that
it
was
before
;
especially
by
the
deuise
of
gunnes
,
which
the
deuill
together
with
his
deliuerance
out
of
bondage
,
deuised
for
the
speedie
destruction
of
mankind
,
and
great
effusion
of
bloud
;
all
making
way
to
the
second
comming
of
Christ
our
King
?
Was
not
the
finding
out
of
the
newe
,
or
(
as
I
may
say
)
of
the
nether
world
,
by
the
indeuour
and
trauell
of
Christians
in
our
time
,
one
of
the
most
wonderfull
accidents
that
hath
happened
since
the
time
of
Christ
:
and
euen
as
a
signe
and
token
before
the
latter
day
;
that
GOD
which
hath
shut
vp
those
nations
so
manie
ages
before
in
vnbeleefe
,
would
now
yet
in
the
latter
time
call
them
to
the
knowledge
of
his
Sonne
:
if
any
perhappes
would
hearken
to
his
word
,
that
they
also
might
bee
saued
,
and
healed
by
the
death
of
Christ
?
Is
it
not
likewise
a
speciall
token
of
the
end
of
the
world
,
that
such
extraordinarie
Starres
and
Comets
,
such
straunge
and
rare
Coniunctions
of
the
Planets
,
such
meruellous
remouings
of
earth
,
whereof
no
mortall
man
can
giue
any
naturall
reason
;
together
with
mightie
ouerflowinges
of
the
Sea
,
whereby
whole
Countries
and
people
are
destroyed
?
But
is
it
not
as
great
a
signe
and
token
hereof
,
that
within
so
fewe
as
fifteene
yeares
now
to
come
,
there
shall
happen
fiue
Eclipses
of
the
Sunne
,
besides
many
others
of
the
Moone
;
such
and
so
terrible
as
the
like
neuer
happened
within
so
short
a
space
since
the
beginning
of
the
world
?
Doth
not
also
the
sodaine
decay
of
mans
strength
,
and
stature
,
&
age
,
together
with
the
vnwilling
mind
he
hath
to
all
godlines
,
vertue
,
and
charitable
actions
,
prognosticate
vnto
vs
any
lesse
than
the
things
before
?
Moreouer
,
do
not
the
trees
,
the
plants
,
the
hearbes
and
fruits
,
and
all
other
sencelesse
things
of
the
earth
,
which
should
bee
for
the
comfort
of
man
,
most
sensiblie
shewe
vnto
vs
by
the
decay
of
their
strength
,
of
their
taste
and
vertue
(
which
not
long
since
they
had
in
greater
measure
)
that
within
a
short
time
,
there
shall
be
no
more
vse
of
them
?
Nay
,
doth
not
the
earth
it self
complayne
,
that
she
hath
powred
out
of
her
bowells
in
a
manner
all
the
store
of
her
treasures
and
commodities
,
wherewith
she
was
fraighted
for
the
vse
of
man
?
Yea
,
do
not
all
the
creatures
of
God
earnestly
expect
when
the
Sonne
of
God
shall
appeare
,
that
they
also
may
be
deliuered
from
the
bondage
of
corruption
?
But
shall
wee
not
account
this
also
to
bee
a
great
signe
of
the
ende
of
the
world
,
that
it
pleased
God
in
this
age
and
neuer
before
,
both
to
indue
man
with
knowledge
,
and
to
leade
him
,
as
it
were
by
the
hand
,
about
the
whole
compasse
of
the
earth
:
That
when
he
had
seene
all
,
and
compast
all
,
and
yet
found
all
to
be
nothing
but
trouble
,
and
vanitie
,
and
vexation
of
minde
,
by
sea
and
land
,
&
in
all
places
where
he
came
,
he
might
glorifie
his
Creator
and
Sauiour
,
which
had
giuen
so
excellent
guiftes
,
and
vertues
,
and
knowledge
,
and
ciuilitie
,
and
so
iust
a
Religion
vnto
his
Christian
people
,
before
so
many
and
so
great
nations
,
which
in
comparison
of
them
,
liued
without
God
,
without
faith
,
and
without
all
humanitie
;
and
might
the
rather
bee
drawne
from
the
loue
of
this
earthly
mansion
,
to
long
for
the
day
of
Christ
,
and
to
bee
translated
to
a
more
ioyfull
and
euerlasting
habitation
?
To
be
short
:
The
number
of
Prophets
that
GOD
doth
daylie
send
to
admonish
all
people
of
the
latter
day
,
and
to
giue
them
warning
to
be
in
a
readines
;
because
they
teach
no
lyes
,
but
such
things
as
they
finde
in
the
word
of
God
,
are
no
lesse
to
bee
beleeued
then
those
that
prophesied
of
the
first
comming
of
Christ
.
To
make
an
ende
hereof
,
the
opinions
,
or
rather
firme
beleefe
of
sondrie
seuerall
learned
&
wise
men
,
so
farre
distant
asunder
by
places
,
but
so
neerely
conspiring
together
by
the
vnitie
of
their
iudgements
,
and
consent
of
their
spirits
as
touching
the
comming
of
Christ
,
do
declare
,
that
the
Bridegrome
is
euen
now
comming
,
and
craue
vs
to
wayt
for
him
all
houres
of
the
day
and
night
,
that
we
may
enter
with
him
into
the
mariage
feast
.
Where
bee
now
these
Atheists
?
where
bee
these
mockers
?
where
be
those
that
walke
after
their
own
lusts
,
and
say
;
where
is
the
promise
of
his
comming
?
Behold
the
winter
blasts
are
now
gone
,
and
the
comfort
of
the
spring
is
come
:
The
Lord
shall
come
speedelie
foorth
like
a
Lion
out
of
his
denne
,
and
will
be
auenged
of
them
that
speake
blasphemie
,
and
will
destroy
all
the
workers
or
wickednesse
:
Beholde
the
Arke
is
now
welneere
finished
,
the
number
is
accomplished
,
the
Church
established
,
the
chosen
confirmed
:
The
trumpet
hath
sounded
:
The
kings
sonne
must
be
maried
:
The
feast
is
prepared
,
the
bidden
guests
haue
refused
:
All
sorts
of
people
in
all
the
high
waies
of
the
world
are
gathered
,
the
wedding
is
furnished
:
The
king
and
the
bridegroome
are
comming
:
The
earth
and
the
sea
shall
yeeld
vp
their
dead
:
the
sonne
of
man
shall
appeare
in
the
cloudes
:
he
shal
come
with
exceeding
glorie
:
Angels
without
number
shall
attend
vpon
him
:
All
nations
of
the
worlde
shall
drawe
vnto
him
:
The
godlie
shall
triumph
and
reioyce
in
him
:
The
generation
of
the
wicked
shal
tremble
to
see
him
:
The
godlie
shal
stand
at
his
right
hand
,
the
wicked
on
his
left
:
Heauen
shal
be
opened
,
the
earth
shal
bee
consumed
,
the
sea
shal
be
dried
:
The
Sunne
&
the
Moone
shal
be
darkened
,
and
all
the
powers
of
heauen
shal
bee
moued
:
The
sonne
of
God
shall
sit
on
his
throne
,
the
wicked
shall
receaue
the
iudgement
of
death
,
and
the
faithfull
bee
carried
into
the
euerlasting
Kingdome
.
Wherefore
the
Lord
shall
come
&
not
tarie
.
He
promised
signes
of
his
comming
,
&
those
signes
he
hath
sent
:
He
promised
that
he
would
come
immediatelie
after
those
signes
;
wherefore
those
signes
beeing
accomplished
,
hee
will
come
,
and
that
sodainlie
like
a
mightie
tempest
.
For
heauen
and
earth
shall
faile
,
but
one
iot
of
his
promise
shall
not
faile
.
Wherefore
,
insomuch
as
wee
see
so
manie
of
the
promises
alreadie
fulfilled
,
let
vs
be
patient
in
the
rest
,
and
not
murmure
against
him
as
the
Children
of
Israel
did
in
the
wildernesse
,
least
a
sodaine
destruction
come
vpon
vs
,
as
it
did
vpon
them
,
and
we
be
cast
aliue
both
bodie
and
soule
into
the
bottomlesse
pit
.
They
which
beleeue
not
in
the
comming
of
Christ
,
doe
imitate
the
foolish
example
of
Iulius
Cesar
,
who
being
often
warned
before
to
take
heed
to
himself
,
least
some
great
treason
were
wrought
against
him
in
the
Ides
of
March
,
made
but
a
mock
thereof
the
same
day
that
hee
was
slaine
:
saying
to
some
of
his
familiars
,
which
counselled
him
not
to
go
that
day
into
the
Senate
house
;
Why
(
saith
he
)
they
haue
tolde
mee
this
good
while
,
that
I
should
be
in
danger
when
the
Ides
of
March
were
come
:
they
are
come
,
and
yet
I
am
safe
;
I
saith
one
,
they
are
come
,
but
they
are
not
yet
past
:
And
so
by
his
owne
follie
&
negligence
he
was
the
same
day
slaine
.
In
like
manner
,
these
that
doe
but
mocke
at
the
Lords
comming
,
do
see
(
indeed
)
that
al
the
signs
which
were
promised
should
come
to
passe
,
are
founde
to
bee
true
:
but
yet
because
Christ
is
not
come
,
together
with
the
signes
,
they
thinke
perhaps
that
he
will
not
come
.
But
ô
ye
fooles
;
ye
see
them
to
be
come
indeed
:
but
ye
see
them
not
yet
finished
,
neither
shall
ye
see
them
so
soone
ended
,
as
ye
shal
see
the
promise
of
his
comming
iustified
.
Some
motions
yee
had
perhaps
this
last
yeere
,
to
think
vpon
that
day
,
more
than
ye
be
accustomed
,
because
of
the
great
expectation
of
the
Prophesie
of
the
yere
1588
;
and
for
that
ye
heard
by
manie
probable
reasons
and
coniectures
of
men
(
drawen
from
the
consent
and
agreement
of
times
,
from
the
coniunctions
of
planets
,
which
threaten
either
finall
destruction
or
wonderfull
alteration
,
and
from
the
equalitie
of
numbers
in
the
yeeres
of
the
worlde
5550
and
5555
,
which
iumpe
with
the
yeres
of
Christ
1588
and
1593
)
that
either
the
world
should
then
ende
,
or
else
verie
strange
things
should
then
happen
.
Howbeit
this
yere
being
past
,
yee
seeme
now
to
liue
more
securelie
,
yee
feare
God
lesse
,
yee
care
lesse
for
religion
,
yee
delight
more
in
vanities
,
yee
sinne
more
greedelie
,
yee
prouoke
Gods
wrath
more
greeuouslie
,
yee
runne
more
headlong
into
damnation
:
and
yee
sing
your
olde
tune
;
Where
is
the
promise
of
his
comming
more
reprochfullie
,
than
euer
yee
did
before
.
Neuertheles
,
if
so
manie
and
so
strange
things
happened
that
yere
,
as
the
like
did
not
in
so
short
space
in
many
ages
before
?
&
men
hauing
no
more
knowledge
therof
,
than
that
which
could
be
gathred
by
coniecture
of
the
stars
,
&
by
comparing
time
with
times
,
what
effects
do
we
think
shal
folow
vpon
the
sure
&
infallible
prophesie
,
warranted
by
the
spirit
of
God
himselfe
in
the
canonicall
scriptures
?
If
the
starres
that
are
but
creatures
,
can
point
to
the
time
when
God
will
worke
such
mighty
operations
in
other
of
his
creatures
,
as
against
that
yere
they
did
:
whereby
the
proud
&
lustie
mindes
of
mightie
Monarchs
are
abated
,
wherby
puissant
and
strong
armies
are
dissolued
,
whereby
the
most
inuincible
nauies
and
strong
castles
of
the
sea
be
destroyed
,
whereby
the
leagues
&
conspiracies
of
princes
shal
be
made
frustrate
,
wherby
they
that
haue
plaid
so
manie
horrible
tragedies
in
the
Church
,
and
haue
caused
the
bloud
of
so
manie
hundred
thousands
to
be
spilled
,
shal
the
same
yeere
finish
their
daies
,
some
by
bloud
,
some
by
death
:
Nay
if
the
pore
herrings
of
the
sea
,
haue
this
yere
brought
vs
letters
of
warning
from
God
,
written
vpon
the
skins
of
their
little
bodies
,
that
Christ
commeth
&
that
quickly
,
what
think
we
shal
the
performance
of
gods
eternal
promise
,
or
the
least
word
that
proceedeth
out
of
his
mouth
bring
to
passe
against
al
the
tyrants
and
blood
suckers
of
this
worlde
,
against
all
the
enemies
of
his
Church
and
religion
,
against
all
them
that
make
but
a
mocke
at
the
glorious
comming
of
Christ
,
against
all
the
strong
and
mightie
Cities
of
the
earth
:
yea
,
and
against
the
consummation
of
the
whole
globe
of
the
world
?
But
ye
my
masters
that
giue
so
great
credit
to
the
reuolutions
of
the
heauens
,
and
to
the
threatning
of
the
starres
&
planets
,
look
wel
to
your selues
from
henceforth
,
for
besides
that
the
Lord
hath
promised
very
shortly
to
com
himselfe
and
call
you
to
a
reckoning
,
hee
hath
put
also
into
his
creatures
new
accidents
,
the
effects
whereof
shall
continue
not
one
but
one
and
twentie
yeeres
at
the
least
(
if
the
Lorde
come
not
before
)
and
those
greater
than
haue
euer
bin
since
the
world
was
made
,
the
straungenes
whereof
shall
amase
you
,
and
the
effects
thereof
shall
trouble
you
,
when
ye
shall
see
the
Sunne
and
Moone
so
often
and
in
so
short
time
eclipsed
;
when
you
shall
see
the
brightnes
of
heauen
at
noone
time
darkened
;
when
God
shall
powre
out
his
wrath
aboundantly
by
plagues
and
famines
,
by
winds
and
tempestes
,
by
fearefull
ouerflowings
of
waters
,
and
by
the
ruine
and
destruction
of
some
Prouinces
;
when
ye
shall
perceiue
the
strength
of
all
creatures
diminished
,
when
the
earth
will
not
bring
foorth
her
benefites
,
when
by
this
time
all
truth
and
righteousnes
will
be
vanished
,
all
loue
and
societie
among
men
will
bee
dissolued
,
when
all
men
will
altogether
loue
themselues
,
and
no
man
will
any
whit
loue
another
,
when
naturall
affection
of
men
towards
their
owne
will
bee
prostrate
,
when
all
obedience
to
God
and
to
Magistrates
,
to
parents
and
maisters
,
to
Kingdomes
and
Common
weales
will
be
abolished
,
when
nothing
will
bee
done
for
duetie
and
conscience
,
but
all
for
feare
and
necessitie
,
when
all
truth
,
all
charitie
,
and
all
goodnes
will
be
abandoned
;
and
when
there
shall
be
nothing
but
pride
,
enuie
,
dissimulation
,
oppression
,
lust
and
couetousnes
in
all
the
whole
earth
;
when
the
earth
it selfe
will
craue
at
the
hands
of
GOD
,
Come
Lord
Iesus
,
come
quicklie
,
and
deliuer
me
from
this
intolerable
burden
,
which
the
foundation
that
I
am
builded
vpon
,
namely
,
thy
heauenly
word
,
is
not
able
anie
longer
to
beare
.
Wherefore
,
If
Christ
haue
discouered
vnto
vs
,
vpon
whom
the
latter
endes
of
the
world
are
come
,
all
the
signes
and
tokens
which
he
promised
of
his
comming
,
If
he
haue
sent
Preachers
into
the
world
to
proclaime
the
Gospell
of
his
kingdome
;
If
he
haue
reuiued
as
it
were
his
owne
name
againe
,
that
laie
hidden
in
Images
and
dumme
Idolls
;
If
he
haue
resumed
vnto
himselfe
his
owne
authoritie
,
that
was
attributed
vnto
men
and
Saincts
departed
out
of
this
life
;
If
he
haue
reuealed
that
man
of
sinne
that
taketh
the
whole
office
of
Christ
vpon
him
;
If
he
haue
sent
all
the
plagues
,
and
famines
,
and
earthquakes
,
that
his
wisedome
and
counsell
deuised
best
for
the
fatherly
correction
of
his
people
before
the
iudgement
:
If
nations
and
kingdomes
which
are
either
enemies
to
his
Gospell
,
or
straungers
from
his
Church
,
haue
banded
themselues
against
the
Lord
and
against
the
generation
of
the
godlie
:
If
the
father
haue
been
against
the
sonne
,
and
the
mother
against
the
daughter
,
and
brother
against
brother
,
for
the
name
of
Christ
:
If
many
false
Prophets
haue
come
in
the
name
of
Christ
,
&
taught
the
people
shameful
forgeries
when
the
Lord
neuer
sent
them
:
If
men
betray
one
another
,
and
hate
and
persecute
one
another
for
their
conscience
sake
:
If
iniquitie
be
so
filled
vp
with
the
measure
of
it selfe
,
as
it
can
hardly
bee
any
more
augmented
:
Finally
,
if
the
preaching
of
the
Gospell
,
be
at
this
day
carried
from
one
kingdome
to
another
welneere
vnto
the
ende
of
the
world
;
and
all
these
things
to
be
the
tokens
of
Christes
comming
:
And
if
so
manie
straunge
thinges
haue
happened
besides
in
these
our
daies
,
that
haue
not
done
the
like
in
manie
ages
before
,
and
all
these
in
the
Church
,
and
concerning
the
Church
,
and
most
agreeable
to
the
time
of
Christes
owne
prophesie
.
Then
is
the
second
warning
of
the
Trompet
sounded
vnto
iudgement
.
It
is
high
time
therefore
to
awake
out
of
sleepe
,
and
to
slumber
no
more
in
the
cogitations
of
vngodlinesse
:
It
is
time
that
wee
should
cast
off
the
cares
of
this
life
,
and
make
our selues
readie
for
the
daie
of
the
Lord
:
It
is
time
,
yea
more
then
time
that
wee
should
cast
away
the
workes
of
darknesse
,
and
put
on
the
armour
of
light
:
It
is
time
that
wee
should
laie
awaie
all
filthinesse
and
sinne
;
for
now
is
our
saluation
neerer
then
when
wee
first
beleeued
.
The
axe
is
now
put
to
the
roote
of
the
tree
:
that
euen
now
,
wee
must
either
bring
foorth
fruite
,
or
els
bee
cut
downe
and
cast
into
the
fire
.
Behold
,
now
is
the
acceptable
time
,
now
is
the
daie
of
saluation
,
now
will
the
Lorde
shewe
himselfe
a
mightie
GOD
,
and
his
name
shall
be
magnified
in
all
the
world
.
He
came
at
the
first
,
and
wee
knewe
him
not
:
beholde
,
he
commeth
againe
,
and
all
men
shall
knowe
him
:
he
came
before
simplie
to
take
our
nature
vpon
him
,
and
to
dye
for
our
sinnes
;
but
he
commeth
againe
,
as
a
conquerour
to
be
reuenged
of
his
enemies
,
and
as
a
bountifull
Prince
to
reward
his
Subiects
:
He
came
into
the
world
,
which
he
himselfe
had
made
,
but
the
world
would
not
receiue
him
,
because
it
was
not
worthv
of
him
.
Wherfore
hauing
wrought
the
work
of
our
redemption
,
he
ascended
vp
vnto
his
Father
,
where
by
his
holie
spirit
he
hath
gouerned
,
kept
,
and
preserued
his
Church
one
thousand
and
well
neere
sixe
hundred
yeares
,
and
now
he
commeth
in
his
own
person
to
call
all
men
to
an
accompt
,
and
to
cite
all
men
to
his
Iudgement
;
and
those
that
haue
vsed
their
talents
well
in
this
life
,
shall
be
sure
of
an
eternall
reward
in
his
kingdome
:
Remember
therefore
O
ye
Christian
Princes
and
Magistrates
,
and
ye
that
haue
charge
and
rule
of
Gods
people
;
whom
God
hath
made
his
Liutenants
generall
within
your
owne
dominions
,
remember
that
the
Lord
is
comming
,
and
will
call
you
to
an
accompt
before
the
throne
of
his
Iudgement
:
The
greater
your
Kingdomes
and
Territories
be
,
the
greater
is
the
reckoning
that
he
requireth
of
you
:
and
the
more
absolute
you
bee
in
commaunding
all
,
the
more
are
you
bound
to
giue
an
accompt
for
.
Ye
are
the
Caesars
,
to
whom
Paule
appealed
,
from
you
lieth
no
appeale
to
anie
superior
in
this
life
.
As
the
Lord
hath
deliuered
vnto
your
custodie
the
greatest
number
of
Talents
,
so
he
looketh
to
reape
at
your
hands
the
greatest
gaines
.
It
pitieth
me
to
temember
the
woful
and
greeuous
state
of
all
mortall
men
in
this
miserable
life
,
the
desperate
and
dangerous
case
wherein
they
liue
,
the
often
and
imminent
perills
that
they
fall
into
,
the
manifold
temptations
,
vexations
,
and
disquietnes
of
mind
that
they
are
brought
into
,
the
continuall
inticements
of
the
flesh
and
the
diuell
that
they
enter
into
,
besides
the
rash
,
and
furious
,
and
vngodlie
actions
,
that
they
desperatelie
runne
into
;
That
when
they
shall
shortlie
stand
before
the
Tribunall
seate
,
and
their
owne
conscience
iustlie
accusing
them
thereof
,
there
shal
be
no
wisedome
,
no
policie
,
no
counsell
,
no
eloquence
of
the
tongue
,
that
can
excuse
or
satisfie
the
least
offence
of
this
life
:
This
is
the
generall
state
of
all
mankinde
.
But
alas
for
griefe
,
that
Princes
should
both
nowe
,
and
then
also
before
the
Iudgement
seate
,
be
in
more
wofull
case
,
than
all
other
persons
and
subiects
of
this
mortall
life
;
That
they
should
bee
in
greater
daunger
than
all
men
liuing
;
that
they
shoulde
bee
subiect
to
more
miscarying
and
mishaps
;
than
all
men
liuing
;
that
they
shoulde
haue
more
vexations
,
disquietnesse
,
and
cares
of
minde
,
than
all
men
liuing
;
that
temptations
of
the
flesh
,
that
prouocations
vnto
lust
,
and
desire
of
pleasures
,
shoulde
take
more
holde
of
them
,
than
of
all
men
liuing
;
and
that
the
way
vnto
all
vngodlie
actions
should
be
more
open
vnto
them
,
than
to
all
men
liuing
:
And
of
all
these
thinges
must
they
shortlie
yeelde
an
account
,
together
with
all
men
liuing
.
And
yet
beholde
when
the
Awdit
is
ended
for
this
,
&
a
Quietus
est
for
all
matters
concerning
themselues
,
there
is
a
new
inditement
framed
against
them
,
wherein
they
must
bee
called
to
an
other
reckoning
.
Then
shall
the
Register
of
all
their
gouernement
bee
read
before
them
:
then
will
it
be
seene
whether
they
haue
ministred
Iustice
vnto
their
people
:
That
is
to
say
;
Whether
they
haue
hearde
the
fatherlesse
and
oppressed
,
when
they
haue
cried
vnto
them
;
Whether
they
haue
taken
notice
of
such
appeales
,
as
haue
ben
made
vnto
them
;
Whether
they
haue
punished
vngodlie
and
corrupt
Iudges
,
which
solde
their
subiectes
for
siluer
,
and
the
righteous
for
a
poore
rewarde
;
Whether
they
haue
spared
the
innocent
bloud
,
and
not
pardoned
them
that
runne
on
still
in
wickednesse
;
Whether
in
all
their
publique
enterprises
,
they
haue
respected
the
glorie
of
GOD
,
more
than
their
owne
commodities
;
Whether
they
haue
nursed
,
protected
,
and
defended
the
Churche
of
GOD
to
the
vttermost
of
their
power
;
Whether
they
haue
preserued
it
from
all
heresies
,
errours
,
schismes
,
and
corruptions
;
Whether
they
haue
punished
those
Rulers
of
the
Churche
,
that
cause
the
trueth
of
GOD
to
bee
euill
spoken
of
,
for
their
vngodlinesse
:
Finallie
,
whether
in
all
their
actions
,
both
at
home
and
abroade
,
priuate
and
publique
in
the
Churche
and
Common-weale
,
they
haue
done
all
thinges
with
a
faithfull
and
sinceere
heart
,
and
with
the
testimonie
of
a
pure
and
good
conscience
.
Which
if
they
haue
,
they
shal
be
coheires
with
Christ
,
and
shall
reigne
with
him
in
glorie
and
felicitie
for
euermore
:
otherwise
they
shall
stande
among
the
guiltie
sinners
,
&
receaue
iudgement
of
condemnation
according
to
their
merites
.
Next
vnto
Kinges
and
absolute
Princes
,
must
come
to
a
reckoning
before
the
chiefe
Iudge
Christ
Iesus
,
the
Gouernours
of
the
Churche
,
and
Rulers
of
Prouinces
and
particular
places
,
to
whome
the
Prince
for
his
owne
discharge
hath
committed
his
authoritie
,
to
see
that
GOD
bee
truelie
serued
,
and
Iustice
among
his
subiectes
duelie
executed
.
And
therefore
yee
my
reuerent
Fathers
of
the
Churche
,
yee
,
whose
office
it
is
both
to
teach
,
and
feede
,
and
gouerne
the
Churche
vnder
your
charge
:
Christ
will
shortlie
call
you
to
a
straight
accompt
;
First
,
whether
yee
came
into
your
office
by
a
plaine
and
direct
waye
,
or
els
stole
into
it
by
some
corrupt
and
sinister
meanes
;
Whether
yee
desired
the
office
of
a
Bishop
for
the
goodnesse
of
the
worke
,
or
for
the
gayne
and
profite
of
the
liuing
;
Whether
yee
set
before
your
eyes
,
the
benefite
of
the
Church
,
and
aduancement
of
the
Gospell
,
more
than
the
honour
and
dignitie
that
is
attributed
vnto
your
calling
.
The
seconde
Article
wherein
yee
must
trie
your selues
before
the
Supreame
Bishoppe
,
is
,
Whether
you
haue
indeuoured
as
farre
as
in
you
lyeth
,
to
cleanse
the
whole
Church
vnder
you
,
of
all
vngodlie
worship
&
worshippers
in
the
same
:
And
whether
ye
haue
been
carefull
to
appease
al
schismes
and
controuersies
to
the
vttermost
of
your
power
;
whether
yee
haue
sincerelie
and
diligentlie
preached
Christ
,
as
hee
hath
prescribed
in
his
holie
word
;
whether
yee
haue
weeded
out
of
your
whole
gouernments
,
all
infamous
,
vngodlie
,
schismaticall
,
yea
(
and
as
much
as
in
you
lieth
)
all
vnlearned
Pastors
,
which
either
by
their
wicked
examples
offend
,
corrupt
and
marre
their
flocke
,
or
els
be
altogether
carelesse
and
negligent
of
them
;
whether
ye
haue
executed
all
the
censures
of
the
Church
,
with
a
faithfull
and
single
heart
&
hand
,
without
all
fauour
and
corruption
,
for
the
aduauncement
of
the
glorie
of
God
,
and
edifieng
of
die
whole
congregation
.
Item
,
whether
you
haue
remooued
or
reformed
all
such
your
Commissaries
and
other
meane
officers
,
(
if
anie
such
you
haue
)
that
by
their
corrupt
and
auaritious
proceedings
,
haue
caused
the
most
iust
,
most
holie
,
and
most
pure
religion
of
Christ
,
to
bee
blasphemed
and
hated
among
the
enemies
of
the
Gospell
:
and
haue
giuen
so
great
an
offence
to
the
rest
of
the
Church
,
as
manie
haue
runne
into
greeuous
schismes
and
verie
damnable
opinions
,
by
reason
of
the
same
.
Likewise
in
all
iust
appeales
made
vnto
you
,
whether
you
haue
in
charitie
and
conscience
indeuoured
with
all
care
and
diligence
to
reforme
all
things
that
haue
been
wronged
by
your
inferiour
officers
.
Finally
,
whether
ye
haue
fed
the
hungrie
,
clothed
the
naked
,
and
lodged
the
harborlesse
;
and
whether
to
the
proportion
of
your
liuing
,
ye
haue
been
as
liberall
to
the
poore
and
impotent
members
of
Christ
,
as
carefull
to
aduaunce
your selues
and
yours
with
worldly
riches
and
honors
.
And
thus
,
whether
yee
haue
in
all
thinges
indeuoured
to
the
vttermost
of
your
power
,
both
by
your
sound
doctrine
,
by
example
of
your
owne
life
,
and
by
your
faithfull
and
vpright
gouernment
,
to
walke
worthie
of
your
vocation
,
and
haue
kept
the
vnitie
of
the
Spirit
in
the
bond
of
peace
.
In
al
these
things
shall
ye
shortlie
be
examined
and
tried
before
the
triumphant
Iudge
Christ
Iesus
.
Againe
,
ye
that
bee
the
gouernours
of
Prouinces
,
and
all
other
Iudges
and
great
officers
,
vpon
whom
dependeth
either
the
liues
,
or
the
goods
,
or
the
causes
of
other
Subiects
;
albeit
the
most
of
you
haue
long
time
escaped
the
temporall
sword
,
yet
shall
you
not
now
escape
the
last
iudgement
of
God
.
For
the
bloud
of
the
fatherles
and
widdowes
haue
cryed
vp
to
the
Lord
of
hoasts
,
and
he
commeth
to
take
an
account
of
your
vngodlie
and
vncharitable
iudgements
.
Shall
not
your
owne
consciences
in
that
day
accuse
you
,
as
much
as
a
thousand
witnesses
;
that
you
fled
from
iudgement
and
peruerted
equitie
;
That
ye
build
vp
Syon
with
bloud
,
Generally
,
all
ye
that
be
rich
&
abound
with
goods
and
possessions
in
this
life
,
leaue
off
the
greedie
desire
of
monie
,
and
dispose
well
of
the
riches
that
ye
haue
:
Make
ye
friends
while
ye
maie
,
of
your
vnrighteous
Mammon
,
that
ye
be
not
taken
short
when
the
Lord
commeth
.
For
he
is
speedilie
comming
,
and
will
take
a
straight
account
of
all
you
,
that
haue
abused
your
stewardshippes
,
and
haue
not
bin
faithfull
in
that
was
committed
vnto
you
.
He
hath
sounded
his
Trompet
now
this
second
time
,
and
hath
giuen
you
a
lawfull
warning
,
he
hath
tolde
you
often
before
,
and
he
telleth
you
now
againe
at
the
last
,
that
you
heape
not
vnto
your selues
treasure
vpon
the
earth
,
where
the
Canker
and
rust
do
corrupt
,
&
theeues
breake
in
&
steale
,
That
if
riches
increase
,
you
should
not
set
your
heart
vpon
them
,
Neither
shall
those
rich
,
whether
they
bee
men
or
women
,
escape
the
iudgement
of
God
;
which
gathering
to
themselues
abundance
of
treasure
,
deferre
all
their
good
deeds
til
the
time
of
their
death
,
&
determine
then
to
dispose
all
things
after
a
good
and
charitable
manner
:
seeing
for
the
most
part
,
either
their
life
is
sodainlie
taken
from
them
before
they
haue
set
all
in
order
;
Or
while
they
liue
,
they
are
spoyled
of
that
they
haue
;
Or
else
some
other
mischaunce
commeth
after
their
death
,
that
things
cannot
be
disposed
according
to
their
will
:
But
especiallie
,
since
in
the
meane
time
,
they
haue
suffred
manie
Christian
soules
to
perish
for
lacke
of
their
helpe
.
Againe
,
what
thanke
is
it
to
them
to
be
liberal
then
,
when
they
must
of
necessitie
leaue
their
riches
vnto
others
,
and
cannot
vse
the
same
anie
more
themselues
.
Neither
wil
the
Iudge
in
that
day
,
so
straightlie
inquire
how
they
bestowed
the
riches
which
they
had
at
their
death
,
as
he
will
examine
whether
they
did
the
workes
of
charitie
in
their
life
:
Namelie
;
Whether
they
had
pitie
on
the
fatherles
children
,
&
widowes
,
when
they
cried
vnto
them
;
Whether
they
helped
the
lame
,
and
blinde
,
and
impotent
,
that
were
not
able
to
shifte
for
themselues
;
Whether
they
gaue
fuel
and
clothes
to
them
that
were
cold
and
naked
;
Whether
they
releeued
poore
prisoners
,
when
the
yron
entered
into
their
soules
;
Whether
they
gaue
Phisicke
to
the
sicke
,
and
surgerie
the
wounded
;
Whether
they
lent
their
monie
freelie
without
hope
of
gaine
;
Whether
they
eased
the
common
burden
of
the
poore
in
time
of
famine
:
Whether
they
helped
their
Countrie
and
Common
weale
in
time
of
necessitie
;
Whether
they
ministred
vnto
the
Saintes
in
their
aduersitie
;
Whether
they
put
their
helping
hand
to
the
vpholding
of
Religion
:
And
finallie
,
Whether
they
did
all
these
things
with
a
single
eye
,
and
faithfull
heart
,
not
to
be
seene
of
men
,
but
for
pure
loue
to
Christ
&
his
members
:
And
then
if
they
haue
anie
thing
lefte
at
their
death
to
be
spared
from
their
owne
familie
,
let
them
bestow
the
same
in
such
wise
as
may
most
tend
to
the
glorie
of
God
,
to
the
edifieng
of
the
Church
,
and
benefite
of
the
Common
weale
:
And
God
shall
restore
them
a
thousand
folde
in
the
life
to
come
.
But
if
they
sawe
all
those
necessities
of
their
brethren
,
and
did
shut
vp
their
compassion
from
them
,
and
thought
all
too
little
for
themselues
while
they
liued
;
all
the
good
deedes
at
their
death
shall
not
be
imputed
one
iot
vnto
them
,
but
they
shal
haue
their
po●tion
with
hipocrites
,
where
shal
be
weeping
and
gnashing
of
teeth
:
For
they
that
haue
shewed
no
mercie
vnto
others
,
shall
haue
iudgement
without
mercie
to
them selues
:
Generallie
,
there
is
no
estate
nor
degree
of
person
whatsoeuer
in
this
life
,
that
shal
escape
from
this
iudgement
,
but
all
shall
appeare
before
the
seate
of
GOD
,
and
they
that
haue
not
walked
with
an
vpright
and
sincere
heart
before
him
,
nor
haue
beleeued
effectuallie
,
nor
liued
fruitefullie
in
Iesus
Christ
,
wherby
their
sinnes
might
not
be
imputed
to
them
,
shall
aunswere
before
him
,
not
onelie
for
all
the
actuall
sinnes
that
they
haue
committed
against
God
,
against
their
neighbor
,
and
against
their
owne
soules
,
but
they
shall
also
yeelde
an
account
for
euerie
idle
and
vaine
worde
,
that
they
haue
spent
all
the
time
of
their
life
,
and
so
to
receaue
iudgement
for
the
same
.
Thus
are
all
mortall
men
and
women
cyted
to
appeare
before
the
Iudgement
seate
of
God
to
aunswere
for
themselues
.
There
shall
then
be
no
excepting
of
persons
before
him
:
but
Emperors
,
Kings
,
and
Princes
,
their
subiects
,
seruaunts
,
and
vassals
,
all
,
both
Magistrates
and
people
,
the
highest
Prelates
and
poorest
Ministers
,
Lords
and
tenants
,
masters
and
seruants
,
parents
and
children
,
olde
and
young
,
one
with
another
shall
all
stand
before
the
face
of
the
Lorde
to
receiue
their
iudgement
;
and
either
for
their
vngodlinesse
to
be
accused
and
condemned
,
or
else
hauing
walked
with
a
perfect
heart
before
him
,
they
shal
bee
iustified
and
saued
by
the
death
and
redemption
of
Christ
.
Wherefore
seing
al
these
things
shall
thus
happen
,
&
that
shortly
,
&
how
sodainly
we
know
not
:
and
seing
the
day
of
the
Lord
wil
steale
vpon
vs
like
a
theefe
in
the
night
,
Wherefore
my
deare
brethren
in
Christ
,
when
we
haue
diligentlie
weighed
and
considered
these
things
;
how
iustlie
,
how
innocentlie
,
and
how
purelie
ought
wee
to
shewe
our selues
in
all
the
whole
course
of
our
liues
,
looking
daylie
and
hourelie
for
the
appearing
of
our
Sauiour
,
that
we
maie
be
blamelesse
in
the
daie
of
his
comming
.
It
is
for
our
learning
&
edifying
that
al
the
holie
Scriptures
are
written
,
that
all
the
teaching
,
instructions
,
&
warnings
therin
are
giuen
,
that
all
the
miracles
of
God
from
the
beginning
haue
been
shewed
,
that
all
the
examples
of
our
forefathers
haue
been
published
,
that
God
from
the
beginning
was
so
mindfull
of
our
redemption
,
&
that
he
sent
his
owne
Sonne
for
our
saluation
.
It
is
we
that
he
hath
been
so
carefull
to
preserue
so
many
ages
together
,
in
the
middest
of
so
many
crooked
and
peruerse
nations
,
&
from
the
hands
of
so
many
cruell
&
bloudie
tyrants
.
Who
were
preserued
in
the
Arke
from
the
first
destruction
of
the
world
by
waters
,
but
we
?
Who
were
saued
from
death
in
the
great
famine
of
Egipt
and
countries
adioyning
,
but
we
?
Who
were
deliuered
from
Pharao
,
from
the
inhabitants
of
Chanaan
,
and
from
manie
other
nations
with
a
mightie
and
stretched
out
arme
,
but
we
?
Who
were
preserued
in
the
great
and
horrible
persecutions
of
the
Primitiue
Church
,
from
being
vtterly
consumed
of
tyrants
,
but
we
?
Who
were
safelie
kept
by
God
as
the
apple
of
his
owne
eye
,
in
so
great
and
generall
Apostacie
of
the
Church
,
but
we
?
Who
were
againe
deliuered
by
God
from
the
power
of
Antichrist
,
and
were
indued
with
the
knowledge
of
his
truth
,
but
we
?
Nay
,
who
haue
receiued
so
many
tokens
of
the
end
of
the
world
,
&
warnings
of
Christes
comming
,
as
we
?
For
the
heathen
haue
no
knowledge
of
his
lawes
,
And
they
that
bee
straungers
from
Christ
,
feare
not
his
iudgements
,
And
all
they
which
sinned
without
law
,
shall
perish
without
law
.
Againe
,
if
iudgement
begin
first
with
the
house
of
God
,
what
shall
become
of
them
that
beleeue
not
the
Gospell
?
Why
do
not
wee
then
with
all
faithfulnesse
and
willng
heart
receiue
all
these
Oracles
sent
vs
by
God
?
Why
doe
wee
not
thankfully
accept
his
benefites
?
Why
do
we
not
beleeue
his
promises
?
Why
do
wee
not
prepare
our selues
for
his
iudgements
?
Why
doe
we
not
weepe
and
bewaile
and
lament
for
our
sinnes
?
Why
are
we
so
stonie
and
hard
hearted
,
that
there
is
No
example
of
temporall
punishments
in
other
,
no
feele
of
Gods
wrath
in
our selues
,
no
threatning
of
Gods
vengance
to
come
,
no
remembrance
of
punishments
past
,
no
remorse
of
conscience
for
our
sinnes
,
no
promise
of
temporall
blessings
,
no
assurance
of
eternall
rewards
:
neither
signes
in
heauen
aboue
,
nor
tokens
in
the
earth
beneath
,
nor
the
hope
of
euerlasting
saluation
,
nor
feare
of
perpetuall
damnation
,
that
can
once
effectually
moue
vs
to
amend
our
liues
,
and
make
vs
to
forsake
the
sinne
that
reigneth
in
our
mortall
bodies
;
although
we
know
die
kingdome
of
heauen
to
be
neuer
so
neere
,
nay
,
euen
at
the
very
doore
.
Wherefore
I
feare
me
it
will
be
pronounced
against
vs
,
that
was
sometime
against
the
vnbeleeuing
cities
of
Iuda
.
Woe
be
vnto
you
Christians
,
and
especiallie
you
that
haue
taken
vpon
you
to
reforme
my
Church
,
and
to
haue
my
Gospell
preached
among
you
,
woe
I
say
bee
vnto
you
:
For
if
the
signes
and
myracles
that
haue
bin
in
your
time
,
and
among
you
,
had
bin
done
among
the
Turkes
and
Infidels
,
yea
among
the
most
sauadge
Indians
of
the
world
,
they
would
long
since
haue
repented
insackecloth
and
ashes
!
O
that
wee
would
open
the
fountaines
of
our
heart
,
and
powre
in
contrition
into
our
soule
!
O
that
wee
had
a
floud
of
teares
to
bewaile
the
multitude
of
our
sinnes
!
O
that
we
would
haue
but
some
parte
of
that
affection
towards
our selues
,
that
the
creatures
of
God
haue
towards
vs
!
For
they
mourne
and
lament
for
our
sins
,
they
long
for
our
deliuerance
because
of
our
sinnes
;
The
earth
trembleth
&
quaketh
because
of
our
sinns
;
The
Sonne
and
the
Moone
want
of
their
light
and
beautie
,
for
our
sinnes
,
The
Heauens
powre
downe
floudes
of
destruction
for
our
sinnes
;
The
plants
and
hearbes
lacke
their
vertue
and
operation
,
for
our
sinnes
:
The
windes
goe
foorth
of
their
places
,
&
the
seasons
of
the
yere
keepe
not
their
wonted
course
,
for
our
sinnes
:
yea
,
the
natures
of
all
creatures
are
in
a
manner
changed
for
our
sinnes
.
But
what
shall
I
saye
more
?
The
Angels
of
God
doe
mourne
for
our
sins
:
The
verie
soules
of
the
righteous
doe
lament
for
our
sinnes
:
And
it
greeueth
the
spirite
of
God
himselfe
,
that
we
persist
in
our
sinnes
:
But
all
this
mooueth
not
our
senses
,
nor
yet
melteth
our
owne
heartes
for
our
sinnes
:
All
that
we
speake
,
all
that
we
write
,
all
the
labor
we
take
,
is
in
vaine
:
For
our
heart
is
as
hard
as
the
Adamant
,
and
our
soule
refuseth
counsell
.
Euerie
man
speaketh
of
the
mercies
of
GOD
;
Euerie
man
acknowledgeth
his
benefits
?
Euerie
man
hath
the
word
of
God
in
his
lippes
;
Euerie
man
crieth
Lorde
,
Lord
;
but
no
man
dooth
the
will
of
his
heauenlie
Father
;
Euerie
man
confesseth
the
tokens
of
Christ
to
bee
come
,
but
no
man
prepareth
him selfe
his
comming
:
No
man
maketh
attonement
with
his
brother
,
no
man
sheweth
the
fruites
of
faith
,
no
man
forsaketh
his
wicked
life
,
no
man
keepeth
his
vessell
pure
and
holie
to
the
Lorde
.
Euerie
man
blameth
,
euerie
man
reprooueth
,
euerie
man
condemneth
shamefull
actes
in
others
,
but
no
man
amendeth
anie
one
sinne
in
himselfe
.
O
gracious
GOD
,
why
shoulde
thy
people
thus
forget
thee
?
why
shoulde
they
bee
thus
stiff-necked
against
thee
?
why
shoulde
they
so
deepelie
dissembled
with
thee
?
why
shoulde
they
make
as
though
they
beleeued
thy
worde
,
when
they
bee
so
farre
from
reforming
of
their
liues
?
why
should
they
be
so
rauished
with
earthlie
delightes
,
that
perish
in
a
moment
,
and
contemne
the
hauenlie
ioyes
,
which
continue
for
euer
?
why
shoulde
they
bee
thus
distraught
from
the
sense
and
feele
of
hapinesse
,
to
followe
the
delightes
and
pleasures
of
their
owne
fancies
?
Shal
the
care
of
transitorie
riches
of
this
world
,
drowne
the
desire
of
glorie
in
the
worlde
to
come
?
Shall
the
vglie
and
deceaueable
lustes
of
sinne
,
that
breede
long
and
bitter
repentaunce
,
preuaile
aboue
the
beautifull
contemplation
of
thine
eternall
Godhead
?
Shall
this
vale
of
miserie
,
(
wherein
wee
see
nothing
but
sinne
and
wickednesse
,
nothing
but
care
and
vexation
of
minde
,
nothing
but
perilles
by
lande
and
sea
,
at
home
and
abroade
,
in
bedde
and
at
boord
,
in
freedome
and
in
bondage
,
in
pouertie
&
in
welth
,
in
honour
and
disgrace
,
at
all
times
,
and
in
all
places
,
both
in
life
and
in
death
)
bee
more
deepelie
printed
in
our
heart
,
than
the
Kingdome
of
Christ
;
wherein
the
bodie
shall
bee
chaunged
from
corruption
to
immortalitie
,
from
dishonour
to
glorie
,
from
weakenesse
to
strength
,
from
a
naturall
bodie
to
a
spirituall
bodie
;
wherein
all
paines
and
sorrowes
shall
bee
vtlie
vanished
,
and
all
quietnesse
and
tranquilitie
of
conscience
shall
dwell
for
euermore
?
Nay
,
shall
the
affection
which
wee
beare
to
father
,
or
mother
,
or
brother
,
or
sister
,
or
wife
,
or
children
,
or
landes
,
or
goods
,
or
to
haue
die
whole
earth
at
our
becke
and
commaundement
,
once
seperate
vs
from
the
loue
that
is
in
Christ
Iesus
;
from
the
companie
that
wee
shall
haue
with
his
holie
Angells
,
from
the
fellowship
of
all
the
godlie
and
elect
people
,
and
from
the
continuall
fruition
of
Gods
diuine
presence
and
Maiestie
?
GOD
forbid
.
What
is
the
cause
then
that
wee
so
greedelie
imbrace
and
laye
holde
vpon
these
transitorie
thinges
?
Nothing
verelie
,
but
the
corruption
of
our
owne
nature
,
the
following
of
our
owne
sensuall
pleasures
,
and
the
instigation
of
the
diuell
;
who
laboureth
now
towardes
the
ende
of
the
worlde
more
stronglie
than
euer
,
to
drawe
all
the
soules
that
he
can
into
damnation
with
himselfe
;
of
whom
we
,
to
our
great
shame
,
stande
in
seare
,
as
though
Christ
our
Conqueror
had
neuer
redeemed
vs
,
as
though
he
that
had
once
saued
vs
,
could
no
more
defende
vs
.
But
alas
,
why
shoulde
wee
not
continuallie
and
vnfainedlie
praye
vnto
God
to
assist
vs
,
and
with
the
strength
of
his
holie
spirite
to
defende
vs
from
all
our
wicked
enemies
,
that
in
him
,
&
by
him
we
may
haue
grace
to
vanquish
and
ouercome
,
whensoeuer
we
are
pressed
or
disquieted
either
in
bodie
or
minde
.
But
as
concerning
sinne
,
albeit
wee
for
our
owne
parts
haue
made
such
a
couenant
with
death
,
as
whatsoeuer
be
said
vnto
vs
we
will
not
amend
:
&
haue
entered
into
such
a
league
with
hell
,
that
we
will
not
be
saued
:
albeit
we
haue
refused
the
mercie
of
God
,
that
calleth
all
men
to
repentance
,
and
would
all
men
to
be
saued
;
yet
after
we
haue
once
receaued
the
knowledge
of
the
truth
,
and
haue
been
baptized
in
the
name
of
Christ
,
and
haue
promised
to
liue
in
his
true
faith
and
feare
,
let
vs
neuer
so
treade
vnder
foote
the
Sonne
of
God
;
nor
worke
such
despite
vnto
the
spirit
of
grace
,
that
through
our
vngodlie
and
sinfull
life
,
we
shoulde
make
the
Gentiles
to
hate
the
name
of
Christ
for
our
sakes
,
and
by
this
meanes
to
keepe
both
out
selues
and
others
too
out
of
the
kingdome
of
Christ
.
Which
otherwise
,
if
they
saw
our
iust
and
sincere
conueration
answerable
to
the
forme
of
our
profession
,
they
would
ioyne
them selues
vnto
the
bodie
of
Christ
,
&
so
magnifie
his
name
ouer
all
the
world
.
Shall
not
the
zeale
of
our
forefathers
,
who
in
comparison
of
vs
that
haue
the
light
of
the
Gospell
,
liued
but
in
darkenesse
and
in
the
shadowe
of
death
,
be
a
notable
testimony
against
vs
in
the
day
of
iudgement
;
since
they
feared
god
more
reuerently
,
serued
him
more
willingly
,
obeyed
him
more
dutifully
,
and
loued
him
more
feruently
than
we
?
Since
they
had
more
compasston
vpon
their
pore
brethren
,
more
deuotion
vnto
al
good
workes
,
and
more
regard
to
their
owne
saluation
then
we
?
Since
they
had
lesse
dissimulation
,
lesse
craft
,
lesse
hypocrisie
,
lesse
malice
,
lesse
couetousnesse
,
less
wickedness
in
their
life
then
we
?
Compare
the
great
zeale
of
our
predecessors
,
with
the
colde
deuotion
that
wee
haue
in
these
daies
;
and
we
shall
be
ashamed
of
our selues
.
The
good
deedes
which
were
done
by
them
,
were
done
simplie
,
either
for
the
loue
they
bare
to
God
,
or
(
as
they
tooke
it
)
for
the
honor
of
his
seruice
and
religion
,
or
of
a
compassion
to
their
poore
brethren
,
or
for
the
safetie
of
their
owne
soules
,
or
of
a
zeale
they
bare
to
their
parents
departed
,
or
for
a
benefite
to
the
Common
wealth
,
or
to
ease
the
burthen
of
their
successors
,
or
for
the
furtherance
of
Schooles
and
learning
,
or
for
some
such
other
,
either
good
or
wel-meaning
intent
.
But
on
the
other
side
,
what
little
good
soeuer
we
doe
,
we
doe
it
,
neither
of
alone
towards
GOD
,
nor
of
a
charitable
minde
towards
our
neighbour
,
nor
of
any
remorse
of
conscience
in
our selues
,
nor
yet
of
any
affection
towards
our
natiue
countrie
;
but
all
that
the
most
of
vs
do
,
we
do
it
either
for
vaine
glorie
,
or
for
pleasing
of
other
mens
humours
,
or
to
bee
seene
and
praised
of
men
,
or
to
auoyd
the
clamor
of
the
world
,
or
by
compulsion
and
commandement
,
or
for
feare
of
shame
and
punishment
,
or
by
importunate
sute
that
is
made
,
or
because
wee
knowe
not
els
what
to
do
with
that
we
haue
.
Wherefore
,
the
former
with
their
blind
zeale
and
supposed
good
intent
,
shall
rise
vp
in
the
daie
of
iudgement
and
condemne
vs
for
the
fruitlesse
ostentation
and
boasting
of
our
faith
.
If
the
men
of
Niniuie
which
repented
at
the
preaching
of
Ionas
,
and
the
Queene
of
the
South
,
that
came
so
farre
to
heare
the
wisedome
of
Salomon
,
shall
rise
in
iudgement
against
the
Iewes
,
that
would
not
beleeue
and
amend
,
for
all
that
could
bee
said
vnto
them
by
Christ
and
the
Prophets
.
What
shall
so
manie
Prophets
and
Preachers
of
God
do
against
vs
in
that
day
,
who
daily
&
hourelie
and
continuallie
rebuke
vs
for
our
sinnes
,
and
stirre
vs
vp
by
all
meanes
to
amendment
of
our
liues
,
shewing
vs
that
the
daie
of
the
Lord
is
at
hand
.
O
Iesus
,
why
should
we
now
be
further
from
the
obeying
of
thee
,
than
when
wee
were
further
from
thee
?
Shall
the
brightnes
of
thy
presence
,
and
the
light
of
thy
blessed
word
which
lighteneth
euerie
man
that
commeth
into
the
world
,
and
whose
propertie
is
to
giue
light
and
saluation
to
all
them
that
will
receiue
the
same
,
shall
it
shine
(
I
saie
)
vppon
such
stonie
and
grauelie
hearts
,
as
haue
no
power
to
bring
forth
true
repentance
,
nor
any
fruites
of
a
godlie
life
?
And
shall
the
Deuill
so
preuaile
against
them
,
for
whom
thou
hast
shed
thy
most
precious
bloud
,
that
sodainlie
(
vppon
the
reuealing
of
Antichrist
,
and
sending
of
new
Ambassadours
from
thee
,
to
put
thinges
in
order
against
thy
comming
)
he
shall
turne
the
hearts
of
all
men
from
all
goodnesse
and
vertue
,
to
vice
and
crueltie
;
alter
the
natures
of
things
from
better
to
worse
;
bring
in
Schisme
,
Atheisme
,
Treason
,
and
all
vngodlines
into
the
worlde
,
and
make
iniquitie
flowe
beyond
measure
ouer
all
the
bankes
of
the
earth
?
Howbeit
,
Lorde
if
this
bee
thy
will
,
and
that
by
no
other
meanes
thy
holie
word
should
bee
verified
,
namelie
,
that
wickednesse
should
so
mightilie
abound
before
thy
comming
:
If
thy
promise
should
on
this
wise
bee
fulfilled
:
If
thy
chosen
must
on
this
manner
bee
tried
;
and
that
this
should
bee
one
of
the
last
tokens
of
thy
comming
;
wee
accept
all
these
things
as
Oracles
sent
before
,
and
wee
assuredlie
looke
for
thine
owne
selfe
in
person
to
followe
.
Wherefore
ye
my
brethren
of
the
Church
of
England
,
for
whose
cause
specially
I
haue
written
this
second
warning
,
or
sound
of
the
last
Trompet
,
beare
in
minde
all
these
thinges
that
I
haue
declared
vnto
you
:
Examine
your
owne
consciences
,
whether
ye
haue
not
tasted
of
the
blessings
of
GOD
,
in
measure
more
aboundantlie
,
in
fauour
more
apparantlie
,
in
mercie
more
infinitlie
,
and
in
signes
and
tokens
more
wonderfullie
,
than
anie
nation
in
the
world
.
Againe
,
consider
with
your selues
,
how
all
these
graces
and
mercies
haue
been
requited
of
you
.
Whether
there
bee
anie
nation
of
the
worlde
more
vnthankfull
for
Gods
benefites
,
more
forgetfull
of
his
promises
,
more
disobedient
to
his
commaundements
,
more
negligent
in
their
callings
,
more
factious
in
practises
,
more
contentious
in
Religion
,
more
inclined
to
Treason
,
more
vncharitable
in
action
,
more
colde
in
deuotion
,
more
rash
in
enterprises
,
more
restlesse
in
vanities
,
more
greedie
in
getting
,
more
carelesse
in
spending
,
more
slowe
to
vertue
and
more
forward
to
vice
:
And
finally
,
more
desperate
to
all
kinde
of
mischiefe
,
then
commonly
the
people
of
this
kingdome
are
.
Wherefore
,
if
the
mercies
of
God
did
not
daylie
salue
the
deadly
wounds
and
diseases
of
our
soule
,
wee
should
long
before
this
time
haue
come
to
a
feareful
and
horrible
end
.
But
that
the
Lord
doth
yet
spare
you
,
impute
it
not
to
your
owne
desert
,
but
to
his
great
mercy
.
That
ye
perish
&
consume
not
in
his
wrath
,
it
is
of
his
mercie
:
That
ye
liue
vnplagued
of
your
enemies
,
is
of
his
mercie
:
That
ye
loose
not
his
Gospell
and
true
Religion
,
is
of
his
mercie
:
That
we
see
our
Elizabeth
reigne
in
holinesse
,
health
,
and
prosperitie
,
is
long
of
his
mercie
:
And
yet
for
all
this
do
we
reiect
his
goodnesse
,
discredite
his
promises
,
dishonor
his
seruices
,
disallowe
his
tokens
,
continue
in
sinnes
,
deuide
the
Church
with
Schismes
,
and
slaunder
the
trueth
of
the
Gospell
by
our
vngodlines
:
yet
for
all
this
do
ye
crye
,
Peace
,
Peace
,
and
think
that
all
shall
go
aswell
with
you
at
the
last
,
as
it
did
at
the
first
:
And
consider
not
the
mercifull
patience
and
long
suffring
of
the
Lord
,
&
how
he
calleth
you
to
repentance
.
For
ye
shall
al
dye
with
euerlasting
destruction
,
vnlesse
ye
speedily
shewe
foorth
the
fruites
of
repentance
.
And
the
patient
forbearing
of
temporall
punishment
of
your
bodies
in
this
life
,
doth
breede
the
greater
weight
of
perpetuall
shame
and
damnation
both
of
bodie
and
soule
in
the
life
to
come
.
Farre
more
easie
should
it
bee
for
vs
,
if
our
sinnes
had
not
deserued
greater
punishement
,
that
it
would
please
the
Lord
fatherlie
to
correct
vs
while
wee
are
heere
,
either
with
publicke
warres
,
plagues
and
famines
;
or
else
with
priuate
sicknesse
,
penurie
,
imprisonment
,
and
with
losse
of
goods
and
possessions
:
if
he
would
feede
vs
with
the
bread
of
teares
,
and
with
the
water
of
affliction
;
if
he
would
exercise
vs
with
all
kinde
of
miserie
,
and
so
purge
and
trie
vs
as
it
were
by
fire
;
yea
,
if
he
would
humble
vs
as
he
did
Nabucadonosor
,
and
make
vs
to
eate
grasse
with
the
beastes
of
the
field
,
and
to
water
vs
with
the
deaw
of
heauen
,
till
our
hearts
were
whollie
turned
vnto
him
againe
:
rather
than
do
fill
vs
so
abundantlie
with
all
manner
of
temporal
blessings
:
With
health
in
our
bodies
,
plentie
in
our
coffers
,
ioy
in
our
families
,
fauour
with
our
Princes
;
to
haue
praise
with
priuate
persons
,
and
to
haue
authoritie
in
kingdomes
:
but
therewith
to
bee
depriued
of
the
grace
and
mercie
of
God
,
of
Christes
promised
saluation
,
and
in
steede
of
the
pleasures
of
this
life
,
to
receaue
paines
intollerable
both
of
bodie
and
soule
in
the
life
to
come
.
Wherefore
ô
my
bretheren
remember
what
yee
are
,
where
yee
are
,
and
whether
yee
goe
.
Yee
are
of
those
,
for
whom
the
world
was
made
;
For
whome
the
remnant
was
saued
in
Noahs
floud
;
For
whome
God
hath
shewed
a
thousand
miracles
in
Aegipt
,
in
the
redde
Sea
,
and
in
the
wildernesse
;
For
whome
Christ
liued
so
manie
yeeres
in
this
wretched
world
;
and
for
whome
hee
suffered
so
shamefull
death
vpon
the
Crosse
:
Yee
are
the
seede
of
Abraham
,
and
generation
of
the
blessed
:
Yee
are
of
the
Church
,
and
members
of
Christes
bodie
:
Yee
are
the
vessells
of
the
holie
Ghost
,
if
yee
liue
holilie
and
vnblameablie
:
And
ye
are
of
them
,
to
whom
the
promise
of
euerlasting
life
was
made
.
Remember
also
,
that
yee
are
in
this
transitorie
world
,
a
place
so
latelie
made
,
&
which
shall
so
shortlie
perish
;
wherein
there
is
nothing
but
lustes
of
the
fresh
,
lustes
of
the
eyes
,
and
pride
of
life
.
Remember
that
a
thousande
yeeres
with
the
Lorde
are
but
as
one
day
,
and
that
all
your
whole
life
is
not
one
hower
of
such
a
day
.
Remember
that
yee
are
in
a
place
full
of
miseries
,
cares
,
and
troubles
,
among
a
crooked
and
peruerse
generation
,
among
a
people
that
haue
solde
them selues
to
commit
wickednesse
,
and
that
with
all
greedie
desire
:
That
a
mans
dayes
passe
awaie
like
a
shaddowe
,
and
his
yeeres
like
vanitie
,
That
though
he
be
the
mightiest
Prince
&
Monarch
of
the
world
,
yet
when
age
&
infirmities
creepe
vpon
him
,
he
desireth
to
be
losed
from
the
burthen
of
this
flesh
.
Againe
remember
the
place
whereunto
yee
shall
tende
:
For
yee
are
heere
but
pilgrimes
and
straungers
for
a
little
season
;
And
as
manie
of
you
as
are
Christes
,
must
home
to
your
owne
Countrey
of
Heauen
;
A
place
of
libertie
,
a
place
of
felicitie
,
a
place
of
euerlasting
pleasure
;
Where
time
shall
be
no
more
time
;
where
night
and
darkenesse
shall
be
banished
;
where
yee
shall
neither
hunger
nor
thirst
;
where
yee
shall
neither
lust
nor
desire
;
where
it
is
vnpossible
yee
shoulde
die
anie
more
;
where
the
Lorde
him selfe
shall
bee
your
foode
and
portion
,
and
the
light
of
your
countenaunce
;
where
the
measure
of
your
ioyes
shall
be
full
,
and
where
ye
shall
liue
in
pleasure
and
felicitie
for
euermore
.
But
on
the
other
side
,
as
manie
of
you
as
are
called
Christians
,
and
are
not
of
the
flocke
of
Christ
,
as
manie
as
refuse
this
saluation
offered
you
,
in
not
beleeuing
as
you
ought
,
and
liuing
as
you
should
,
As
manie
of
you
as
trust
not
whollie
to
be
saued
by
the
merite
of
Christ
Iesus
,
but
iustifie
your selues
by
your
owne
workes
:
Naie
,
all
you
that
boast
of
your
faith
in
Christ
,
and
yet
mortifie
not
your
carnall
members
,
nor
walke
in
the
steppes
of
his
commaundements
:
As
many
as
make
Christ
Iesus
but
a
straunger
to
you
,
and
seeke
for
other
Mediatours
than
his
owne
selfe
:
As
manie
as
frame
vnto
the
Church
a
monsterous
head
vpon
the
earth
,
besides
our
owne
mercifull
head
Christ
Iesus
in
heauen
:
As
manie
as
will
make
the
decrees
of
mans
corrupt
iudgement
,
equall
with
the
most
holie
and
sacred
word
of
GOD
:
As
manie
as
refuse
to
laie
holde
on
Christ
by
faith
,
and
runne
for
helpe
vnto
Images
and
dumme
Idolls
:
As
manie
as
frustrate
the
benefites
of
Christes
death
,
by
redeeming
their
sinnes
with
monie
and
pardons
:
As
manie
as
thinke
to
obtaine
their
requestes
by
a
set
number
of
verball
prayers
,
without
any
earnest
meditation
of
the
merite
and
promise
of
Christ
:
As
manie
as
prophane
that
glorious
bodie
of
Christ
Iesus
,
by
worshipping
of
any
creature
for
and
in
the
name
of
him
,
and
so
cut
off
the
hand
of
faith
,
whereby
we
hold
fast
by
him
as
he
sitteth
on
the
right
hand
of
his
Father
:
Briefly
,
as
many
as
know
that
God
must
be
worshipped
in
spirit
and
trueth
,
and
yet
will
cleaue
to
the
apish
toyes
and
foolish
superstitions
of
Antichrist
.
Finally
,
as
many
as
walke
after
their
owne
waies
,
and
not
as
the
Lord
himselfe
hath
commaunded
in
his
holie
worde
:
All
these
must
likewise
home
to
their
countrie
;
a
place
of
torment
,
a
place
of
eternal
trouble
,
a
cruell
and
terrible
habitation
,
continuallie
to
bee
vexed
with
burning
fire
and
most
intollerable
heate
,
mingled
neuerthelesse
with
palpable
darknes
;
not
for
a
time
and
season
,
but
perpetuallie
and
for
euer
there
to
remaine
,
vnder
the
dominion
of
Lucifer
and
his
Angels
,
whose
workes
they
followed
,
and
whose
commaundements
they
obeyed
.
Wherfore
,
if
there
yet
remaine
in
you
any
sparke
of
godlinesse
,
anie
loue
of
Religion
,
anie
dutie
towards
God
,
anie
hope
of
the
resurrection
to
come
,
anie
desire
of
saluation
,
anie
feare
of
damnation
:
if
all
faith
,
all
conscience
,
all
goodnesse
,
and
all
religion
be
not
quite
extinguished
;
reuiue
your
mindes
,
lifte
vp
your
hearts
,
ascend
vnto
Christ
by
faith
;
Set
your
affection
vpon
things
aboue
,
and
not
vpon
thinges
beneath
;
Cast
away
all
vaine
and
idle
cogitations
,
reforme
your
liues
,
forsake
your
sins
,
returne
no
more
to
your
filthie
pleasures
,
giue
ouer
your
superfluous
vanities
,
cleanse
your selues
from
all
vngodlinesse
:
&
as
you
haue
hetherto
giuen
ouer
your
members
to
serue
vncleannesse
,
so
make
them
now
to
be
seruants
vnto
righteousnesse
.
Crucifie
the
olde
man
in
you
,
that
the
bodie
of
sinne
may
be
vtterly
destroyed
.
Come
out
from
Babylon
,
and
be
no
more
partaker
of
her
wickednesse
,
touch
no
more
vncleannesse
,
and
the
Lord
will
receiue
you
.
Euery
one
of
you
abound
in
charitie
one
towards
another
,
euen
as
Christ
hath
loued
you
and
hath
giuen
himselfe
for
you
.
Be
renewed
in
the
spirite
of
your
minde
,
and
put
on
the
newe
man
,
which
is
shapen
in
holinesse
and
righteousnesse
.
Examine
your selues
whether
you
be
in
the
faith
:
and
knowe
for
certaintie
that
Christ
is
in
you
,
except
ye
bee
reprobates
.
Clense
your
hearts
from
all
filthines
and
sinne
,
and
go
forth
to
meet
with
the
Bridegrome
.
So
shall
all
your
former
sinnes
be
wiped
out
of
his
remembrance
.
Ye
shal
be
his
people
,
and
he
wil
be
your
God
.
He
will
seperate
you
from
the
wicked
,
and
set
you
on
his
right
hand
.
He
will
protect
you
in
this
life
from
al
your
enemies
,
and
in
the
life
to
come
,
will
giue
you
a
kingdome
of
euerlasting
happinesse
:
Come
therfore
Lord
Iesus
,
Come
quicklie
,
for
the
saluation
of
thy
chosen
,
and
gladnes
of
thy
people
.
