soul_n on_o christ_n for_o righteousness_n i_o doubt_v not_o as_o it_o intend_v affiance_n but_o it_o be_v as_o perkins_n dr._n downam_n rob._n baronius_n etc._n etc._n say_v a_o fruit_n of_o faith_n strict_o take_v rather_o than_o faith_n itself_o but_o if_o you_o take_v faith_n in_o a_o large_a sense_n as_o the_o gospel_n not_o seldom_o do_v and_o against_o which_o i_o be_o no_o adversary_n so_o affiance_n be_v part_n of_o faith_n itself_o but_o that_o it_o be_v the_o whole_a of_o that_o faith_n i_o shall_v never_o believe_v without_o strong_a argument_n where_o you_o say_v be_v the_o receive_v christ_n as_o the_o hand_n embrace_v any_o object_n i_o answer_v 1._o i_o be_o glad_a you_o here_o grant_v christ_n himself_o to_o be_v the_o object_n 2._o if_o you_o mean_v as_o very_o as_o

and_o reception_n as_o the_o hand_n do_v etc._n etc._n then_o i_o be_o far_o from_o believe_v that_o ever_o christ_n or_o our_o assembly_n so_o mean_v or_o ever_o have_v so_o gross_a a_o thought_n where_o you_o say_v i_o take_v it_o not_o the_o in_o sense_n as_o the_o scripture_n word_n imply_v i_o answer_v when_o i_o see_v that_o manifest_v i_o shall_v believe_v it_o when_o it_o be_v say_v john_n 1_o he_o come_v to_o his_o own_o and_o his_o own_o receive_v he_o not_o 1._o be_v it_o mean_v they_o take_v he_o not_o in_o their_o hand_n or_o receive_v not_o his_o person_n into_o their_o
