A37649	A vindication, or, Further confirmation of some other Scriptures, produced to prove the divinity of Jesus Christ, distorted and miserably wrested and abused by Mr. John Knowles together with a probation or demonstration of the destructiveness and damnableness of the contrary doctrine maintained by the aforesaid Mr. Knowles : also the doctrine of Christs satisfaction and of reconciliation on Gods part to the creature, cleared up form Scripture, which of late hath been much impugned : and a discourse concerning the springing and spreading of error, and of the means of cure, and of the preservatives and against it / by Samuel Eaton, teacher of the church of Jesus Christ, commonly stiled the church at Duckenfield.

for_o he_o can_v be_v a_o mediator_n to_o himself_o and_o god_n be_v but_o one_o if_o this_o be_v a_o sound_a consequence_n christ_n will_v be_v mediator_n to_o none_o at_o all_o and_o the_o reason_n

if_o christ_n be_v man_n take_v their_o seed_n than_o he_o be_v of_o this_o party_n than_o he_o be_v mediator_n to_o himself_o and_o the_o word_n may_v be_v retort_v a_o mediator_n be_v not_o of_o
