lord_n but_o he_o that_o be_v unsanctified_a be_v without_o holiness_n and_o therefore_o can_v see_v the_o lord_n and_o so_o though_o grace_n have_v abound_v towards_o you_o yet_o it_o seem_v your_o sin_n have_v much_o more_o abound_v in_o so_o much_o that_o sin_n have_v overcome_v you_o and_o eat_v out_o all_o the_o divine_a sweetness_n of_o regenerate_a and_o sanctify_a grace_n but_o with_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v otherwise_o for_o though_o there_o be_v a_o time_n in_o which_o sin_n have_v abound_v yet_o grace_n have_v much_o more_o abound_v in_o they_o so_o that_o by_o grace_n they_o be_v save_v from_o sin_n and_o be_v become_v dead_a to_o sin_n and_o alive_a unto_o righteousness_n and_o have_v their_o fruit_n unto_o holiness_n and_o the_o end_n everlasting_a life_n and_o so_o by_o all_o these_o particular_n of_o which_o you_o have_v confess_v yourselves_o to_o be_v guilty_a it_o be_v evident_a that_o you_o be_v neither_o minister_n nor_o church_n of_o christ_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a it_o plain_o appear_v that_o you_o very_o much_o differ_v from_o they_o and_o also_o there_o be_v many_o other_o particular_n express_v in_o the_o say_a tiverton_n

you_o have_v delight_v to_o confess_v and_o to_o word_n it_o out_o with_o the_o lord_n and_o be_v go_v away_o present_o forget_v what_o manner_n of_o man_n and_o woman_n you_o be_v and_o think_v no_o

and_o this_o have_v bewitch_v you_o and_o alienate_v your_o mind_n from_o the_o lord_n that_o you_o be_v remiss_a in_o meeting_n and_o that_o you_o neglect_v the_o poor_a saint_n and_o minister_n of_o

the_o mouth_n of_o this_o iniquity_n have_v almost_o devour_v your_o poor_a church_n that_o these_o evil_n be_v so_o deep_o root_v in_o your_o heart_n that_o it_o be_v hard_a to_o get_v they_o out_o that_o they_o have_v wrest_v all_o weapon_n out_o of_o your_o hand_n that_o have_v be_v form_v against_o they_o so_o that_o you_o have_v labour_v in_o vain_a and_o that_o which_o you_o have_v bring_v
