light_n which_o christ_n exhort_v man_n to_o but_o to_o forsake_v that_o which_o upon_o examination_n appear_v to_o be_v evil._n wherefore_o i_o conclude_v that_o such_o as_o have_v not_o be_v acquaint_v with_o this_o holy_a repentance_n do_v not_o sincere_o believe_v neither_o can_v right_o confess_v jesus_n to_o be_v the_o christ_n the_o son_n of_o god_n the_o saviour_n of_o the_o world_n therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n let_v he_o that_o name_v the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n depart_v from_o iniquity_n plain_o imply_v that_o those_o do_v rather_o profane_v than_o confess_v the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n who_o do_v not_o depart_v from_o their_o iniquity_n and_o say_v the_o apostle_n in_o another_o place_n no_o man_n can_v call_v jesus_n lord_n but_o by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o open_v to_o we_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o true_a confession_n to_o wit_n that_o the_o true_a confession_n of_o jesus_n to_o be_v both_o lord_n and_o christ_n be_v from_o such_o a_o belief_n in_o the_o heart_n as_o be_v the_o work_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o those_o that_o do_v not_o confess_v he_o or_o call_v upon_o he_o by_o virtue_n of_o the_o overshadowing_n of_o this_o divine_a spirit_n and_o power_n be_v not_o true_o christian_n true_a worshipper_n believer_n and_o disciple_n furthermore_o they_o that_o receive_v christ_n receive_v his_o kingdom_n his_o power_n and_o

that_o man_n know_v he_o despise_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n who_o be_v precedent_n there_o and_o shall_v be_v sure_a not_o to_o escape_v unpunished_a before_o a_o man_n propound_v any_o thing_n to_o
