those_o that_o be_v natural_a be_v incident_a to_o all_o they_o be_v infirmity_n then_o that_o be_v sinful_a all_o such_o infirmity_n be_v lay_v upon_o christ_n pag._n 100_o wherefore_o vain_a man_n

wherein_o the_o wisdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v reproach_v be_v fall_v upon_o christ_n pag._n 102._o wherefore_o god_n have_v receive_v he_o christ_n have_v receive_v he_o wherefore_o do_v you_o receive_v he_o there_o be_v more_o solidity_n in_o this_o argument_n than_o if_o all_o the_o church_n of_o god_n have_v receive_v he_o will_v any_o say_v we_o can_v believe_v that_o god_n have_v receive_v any_o but_o such_o as_o be_v baptize_v i_o will_v not_o suppose_v a_o brother_n so_o stupefy_v and_o therefore_o to_o that_o i_o will_v not_o answer_v answ_n in_o the_o answer_n to_o this_o long_a reason_n wherein_o john_n bunyan_n have_v run_v himself_o out_o of_o breath_n consider_v first_o that_o those_o scripture_n allege_v by_o john_n bunyan_n nothing_o concern_v the_o matter_n in_o hand_n for_o

may_v now_o pass_v they_o by_o as_o be_v nothing_o concern_v in_o those_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n aforemention_v by_o john_n bunyan_n but_o since_o he_o so_o much_o boast_v of_o their_o
