almost_o only_o of_o this_o inward_a light_n in_o which_o i_o perceive_v 1._o that_o you_o false_o intimate_v that_o we_o deny_v the_o necessity_n of_o a_o inward_a light_n when_o as_o we_o maintain_v that_o the_o external_a light_n of_o the_o word_n alone_o be_v not_o sufficient_a without_o the_o inward_a light_n of_o the_o spirit_n 2._o you_o there_o intimate_v to_o we_o a_o suppose_a

you_o mean_v it_o be_v sufficient_a to_o leave_v man_n without_o excuse_n that_o we_o maintain_v as_o well_o as_o you_o or_o be_v every_o man_n light_n sufficient_a to_o his_o salvation_n if_o so_o

demand_v of_o you_o whether_o he_o that_o have_v see_v god_n do_v not_o abhor_v himself_o as_o job_n do_v in_o dust_n and_o ash_n and_o whether_o the_o true_a knowledge_n of_o god_n do_v not_o ever_o

it_o their_o business_n to_o exalt_v themselves_o as_o have_v the_o spirit_n and_o beign_v perfect_a without_o sin_n and_o to_o revile_v and_o bedung_n other_o man_n with_o their_o reproach_n as_o

query_n be_v whether_o we_o have_v the_o same_o infallible_a spirit_n as_o the_o holy_a man_n of_o god_n have_v that_o speak_v forth_o the_o scripture_n ans._n why_o must_v you_o know_v this_o be_v

and_o a_o late_a ●otable_a gaudy_a orator_n s._n w._n against_o dr_n hammond_n and_o other_o of_o they_o will_v fain_o persuade_v we_o that_o we_o subvert_v christianity_n and_o be_v little_o better_o than_o infidel_n because_o we_o be_v not_o infallible_a but_o i_o will_v answer_v you_o and_o your_o master_n together_o in_o a_o word_n 1._o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n have_v infallible_a inspiration_n of_o new_a matter_n of_o divine_a verity_n not_o before_o reveal_v because_o they_o be_v to_o be_v god_n penman_n and_o messenger_n of_o such_o new_a revelation_n i_o have_v none_o such_o that_o i_o know_v of_o 2._o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n be_v guide_v infallible_o in_o the_o manner_n as_o well_o as_o the_o matter_n so_o that_o every_o word_n that_o they_o write_v to_o the_o church_n be_v infallible_o true_a i_o have_v no_o such_o infallibility_n nor_o your_o grandfather_n the_o pope_n neither_o he_o may_v err_v while_o he_o pretend_v to_o the_o great_a infallibility_n in_o decide_v controversy_n 3._o what_o man_n soever_o he_o be_v in_o the_o world_n that_o believe_v any_o truth_n he_o do_v infallible_o believe_v it_o for_o he_o that_o be_v in_o
