void_a the_o covenant_n of_o god_n with_o his_o elect_n in_o christ_n jesus_n the_o second_o adam_n the_o lord_n from_o heaven_n for_o as_o be_v the_o heavenly_a so_o be_v they_o that_o be_v

say_v express_o in_o 1_o john_n 3.6_o 9_o and_o herein_o be_v that_o say_v true_a 1_o john_n last_o if_o we_o say_v we_o have_v not_o sin_v to_o wit_n in_o the_o first_o adam_n or_o flesh_n we_o make_v god_n a_o liar_n but_o now_o be_v translate_v out_o of_o that_o kingdom_n of_o darkness_n into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o dear_a son_n of_o god_n the_o light_n we_o put_v on_o christ_n nature_n which_o be_v holiness_n and_o righteousness_n without_o which_o none_o shall_v see_v god_n blessed_n be_v god_n for_o his_o unspeakable_a rich_a gift_n and_o so_o though_o in_o the_o first_o man_n be_v fall_v nature_n there_o be_v sin_n and_o death_n yet_o in_o christ_n jesus_n there_o be_v life_n righteousness_n and_o everlasting_a peace_n and_o if_o thou_o will_v not_o have_v death_n

where_o sin_n which_o be_v the_o devil_n work_n come_v not_o as_o be_v say_v before_o for_o the_o prince_n of_o this_o world_n have_v no_o part_n in_o i_o say_v christ_n and_o therefore_o who_o be_v

scripture_n prov._n 20.9_o who_o can_v say_v i_o have_v make_v my_o heart_n clean_o i_o be_o pure_a from_o my_o sin_n i_o say_v no_o man_n can_v say_v that_o he_o have_v make_v himself_o so_o though_o

therefore_o let_v all_o the_o enemy_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o perfect_a work_n be_v silent_a for_o ever_o so_o be_v it_o but_o above_o all_o it_o seem_v strange_a what_o he_o set_v down_o in_o

have_v so_o little_a knowledge_n and_o understanding_n of_o the_o mystery_n of_o god_n and_o christ_n as_o not_o to_o know_v the_o wash_n of_o regeneration_n and_o renew_v of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n no_o better_o but_o we_o leave_v this_o and_o so_o proceed_v to_o see_v what_o there_o be_v in_o those_o scripture_n which_o he_o say_v the_o quaker_n make_v so_o much_o use_v of_o to_o prove_v
