i_o observe_v 1._o they_o can_v be_v true_a worshipper_n that_o worship_v they_o know_v not_o what_o 2._o they_o that_o worship_v the_o father_n as_o the_o proper_a object_n of_o divine_a worship_n be_v not_o such_o as_o worship_n they_o know_v not_o what_o but_o such_o as_o know_v what_o they_o worship_v 3._o they_o that_o worship_v the_o father_n conceive_v of_o he_o as_o contain_v the_o glorious_a inseparable_a essence_n or_o spirit_n be_v worthy_a above_o all_o thing_n to_o be_v worship_v these_o i_o say_v be_v not_o the_o false_a but_o the_o true_a worshipper_n of_o god_n and_o provide_v they_o perform_v their_o worship_n spiritual_o shall_v be_v accept_v by_o he_o because_o he_o seek_v such_o to_o worship_v he_o 4._o that_o it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o

of_o divine_a worship_n conceive_v not_o amiss_o because_o according_a to_o christ_n rule_n he_o be_v a_o true_a worshipper_n 6._o that_o we_o may_v lawful_o have_v communion_n with_o any_o such_o person_n if_o that_o be_v all_o their_o fault_n because_o they_o be_v true_a worshipper_n and_o with_o better_a we_o can_v well_o join_v 7._o i_o observe_v that_o when_o christ_n describe_v the_o object_n of_o our_o worship_n he_o be_v so_o far_o from_o distinguish_v or_o teach_v we_o to_o distinguish_v the_o person_n in_o that_o object_n that_o he_o contain_v all_o under_o the_o

will_n of_o god_n as_o declare_v by_o christ_n that_o the_o order_n we_o shall_v observe_v in_o our_o conception_n of_o god_n almighty_n and_o in_o pour_v out_o our_o desire_n to_o he_o be_v positive_o and_o direct_o to_o pray_v to_o god_n the_o father_n as_o the_o proper_a appellation_n and_o object_n of_o our_o prayer_n 2._o that_o he_o that_o pray_v to_o god_n the_o father_n pray_v in_o that_o respect_n aright_o and_o to_o the_o true_a god_n 3._o that_o it_o appear_v not_o that_o in_o our_o prayer_n we_o be_v enjoin_v to_o distinguish_v the_o person_n if_o we_o regard_v and_o eye_n by_o faith_n the_o be_v or_o essence_n we_o worship_v 1._o because_o if_o such_o a_o thing_n as_o distinguish_v the_o person_n in_o prayer_n be_v a_o duty_n or_o material_a our_o saviour_n will_v have_v insert_v it_o in_o his_o directory_n since_o he_o here_o give_v a_o account_n of_o all_o the_o material_a point_n of_o prayer_n 2._o because_o on_o the_o contrary_n he_o express_o injoin_v we_o to_o direct_v our_o desire_n not_o to_o three_o but_o to_o one_o person_n even_o the_o father_n withal_o teach_v we_o to_o use_v such_o expression_n as_o be_v most_o proper_a to_o a_o

protection_n sacredness_n bounty_n clemency_n glory_n to_o the_o father_n as_o be_v only_o proper_a to_o be_v give_v to_o the_o whole_a and_o only_a godhead_n which_o still_o show_v that_o the_o

to_o be_v worship_v and_o as_o i_o have_v hitherto_o treat_v of_o positive_a direction_n in_o this_o case_n i_o shall_v brief_o cite_v some_o example_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n as_o our_o

thing_n these_o glean_n be_v set_v down_o that_o you_o may_v believe_v that_o the_o proper_a object_n of_o divine_a worship_n be_v the_o one_o most_o high_a god_n as_o true_o subsist_v all_o and_o
