to_o exalt_v the_o spirit_n and_o in_o this_o we_o wrestle_v against_o principality_n and_o wickedness_n in_o heavenly_a place_n then_o satan_n interest_n be_v to_o uphold_v vow_n merit_n in_o touch_v not_o taste_v not_o etc._n etc._n to_o persuade_v that_o the_o spirit_n be_v a_o mere_a chimaera_n or_o sound_v only_o hear_v in_o delude_a ear_n and_o now_o he_o cry_v up_o the_o spirit_n as_o all_o pure_a and_o perfect_a that_o it_o do_v not_o nay_o can_v lust_n after_o envy_n upright_o in_o all_o its_o way_n and_o no_o word_n or_o work_v or_o way_n holy_a or_o acceptable_a without_o it_o be_v its_o simple_a act_n and_o so_o the_o reason_n sense_n and_o body_n be_v esteem_v vile_a thing_n and_o the_o service_n odious_a to_o god_n and_o thus_o satan_n wrest_v to_o every_o extreme_a our_o mind_n and_o christ_n in_o his_o bounty_n so_o defeat_v this_o old_a serpent_n the_o deceiver_n as_o in_o the_o first_o warfare_n presumptuous_a flesh_n be_v beat_v down_o and_o under_o the_o gospel_n the_o spirit_n apt_a to_o be_v puff_v up_o be_v humble_v that_o all_o thing_n both_o in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n in_o soul_n and_o body_n may_v bow_v to_o the_o exalt_a name_n of_o christ_n yea_o that_o every_o thing_n which_o be_v proud_a or_o exalt_v itself_o may_v be_v bring_v down_o and_o that_o he_o that_o glory_n may_v find_v nothing_o to_o glory_n in_o save_v christ_n alone_o and_o last_o that_o the_o spirit_n uphold_v in_o its_o humiliation_n by_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o high-exalted_n name_n may_v uphold_v the_o body_n and_o the_o body_n minister_v to_o the_o soul_n until_o it_o become_v a_o fit_a temple_n for_o the_o holy_a spirit_n to_o dwell_v in_o and_o that_o christ_n at_o his_o come_n may_v find_v we_o perfect_a in_o soul_n in_o body_n and_o in_o spirit_n 9_o and_o lest_o some_o may_v take_v it_o amiss_o that_o now_o in_o our_o gospel-day_n the_o worship_n whereof_o consist_v in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n we_o shall_v speak_v of_o a_o warfare_n against_o the_o spirit_n and_o of_o a_o acceptable_a service_n from_o the_o body_n i_o shall_v explain_v myself_o a_o little_a further_o first_o i_o say_v our_o lord_n do_v not_o teach_v that_o this_o worship_n be_v of_o spirit_n only_o but_o spirit_n and_o truth_n and_o against_o they_o unite_v there_o be_v no_o law_n for_o this_o in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n imply_v a_o worship_n where_o the_o very_a spirit_n of_o truth_n be_v present_a and_o assist_v the_o spirit_n of_o man_n and_o help_v its_o infirmity_n which_o spirit_n also_o dwell_v in_o we_o and_o be_v that_o which_o raise_v up_o christ_n and_o also_o that_o quicken_v our_o mortal_a body_n and_o therefore_o to_o subdue_v this_o spirit_n be_v to_o reject_v god_n and_o good_a in_o as_o deep_a rebellion_n and_o blasphemy_n as_o the_o angel_n reserve_v to_o blackness_n and_o darkness_n ever_o do_v but_o there_o be_v two_o other_o spirit_n one_o of_o god_n and_o yet_o be_v not_o his_o very_a immediate_a spirit_n aforesaid_a of_o which_o the_o belove_a apostle_n thus_o believe_v not_o every_o spirit_n but_o try_v the_o spirit_n if_o they_o be_v of_o god_n for_o many_o false_a prophet_n and_o consequent_o spirit_n be_v go_v forth_o hereby_o we_o know_v that_o spirit_n which_o be_v of_o god_n the_o spirit_n that_o confess_v christ_n be_v come_v in_o the_o flesh_n be_v of_o god_n that_o spirit_n which_o confess_v not_o so_o be_v not_o of_o god_n but_o of_o antichrist_n whence_o observe_v two_o spirit_n one_o of_o god_n another_o not_o of_o he_o second_o consider_v that_o confession_n which_o distinguish_v these_o spirit_n namely_o christ_n in_o the_o flesh_n which_o can_v be_v mean_v of_o a_o historical_a confession_n because_o also_o confess_v must_v have_v have_v that_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o very_o it_o be_v incompatible_a with_o the_o outward_a profession_n to_o deny_v the_o history_n as_o far_o as_o concern_v flesh_n and_o blood_n nor_o among_o those_o various_a delusion_n touch_v his_o nature_n which_o go_v abroad_o few_o or_o none_o hold_v that_o opinion_n again_o the_o spirit_n which_o deny_v this_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o antichrist_n now_o antichrist_n do_v not_o deny_v christ_n in_o the_o flesh_n but_o rather_o suppose_v that_o he_o be_v extant_a as_o flesh_n in_o the_o bread_n to_o this_o day_n and_o last_o to_o make_v this_o the_o character_n be_v to_o make_v antichrist_n a_o pagan_a which_o he_o be_v not_o but_o rather_o the_o spirit_n which_o historical_o confess_v both_o god_n and_o christ_n and_o set_v up_o itself_o against_o they_o and_o this_o be_v that_o spirit_n which_o in_o this_o warfare_n ought_v to_o be_v make_v to_o bow_v the_o knee_n and_o forasmuch_o as_o the_o apostle_n affirm_v that_o this_o spirit_n be_v of_o antichrist_n the_o man_n of_o sin_n and_o son_n of_o perdition_n the_o best_a way_n to_o discern_v it_o be_v to_o apply_v to_o a_o full_a description_n of_o they_o 2_o thess_n 2.4_o who_o oppose_v god_n and_o exalt_v himself_o above_o all_o call_v
