so_o that_o in_o case_n any_o will_v contend_v still_o that_o it_o be_v a_o inward_a covenant_n that_o scripture_n usual_o mention_n and_o honour_n with_o that_o title_n yet_o be_v here_o in_o as_o

such_o distinction_n of_o a_o outward_a and_o a_o inward_a call_n to_o the_o ministry_n all_o calling_n be_v external_a unless_o the_o man_n call_v be_v a_o prophet_n that_o which_o man_n term_v a_o

of_o the_o soul_n unto_o that_o which_o the_o covenant_n require_v and_o whereas_o mr._n baxter_n say_v it_o be_v apparent_a that_o mr._n blake_n distinguish_v ex_fw-la parte_fw-la dei_fw-la between_o
