the_o seed_n of_o the_o serpent_n with_o a_o second_o death_n and_o as_o for_o god_n destroy_v the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n he_o do_v destroy_v they_o two_o way_n that_o be_v he_o that_o be_v god_n

of_o god_n which_o faith_n purify_v the_o heart_n and_o be_v justify_v in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n and_o in_o their_o own_o conscience_n and_o so_o the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n be_v destroy_v

you_o be_v tell_v so_o by_o the_o last_o true_a prophet_n but_o if_o earthly_a king_n do_v pardon_v any_o traitor_n it_o be_v because_o some_o other_o person_n in_o great_a power_n do_v petition_n

thy_o mouth_n be_v stop_v three_o thou_o say_v if_o we_o shall_v own_o christ_n to_o be_v a_o person_n than_o that_o light_n of_o christ_n which_o we_o so_o much_o talk_v of_o will_v vanish_v like_o smoke_n and_o come_v to_o nothing_o answer_n to_o this_o we_o answer_v that_o thou_o have_v manifest_v thy_o darkness_n and_o ignorance_n not_o know_v christ_n not_o know_v the_o holy_a ghost_n not_o know_v the_o father_n not_o know_v christ_n flesh_n his_o blood_n and_o bone_n nor_o christ_n and_o the_o apostle_n doctrine_n nor_o the_o law_n for_o first_o the_o law_n be_v light_a say_v solomon_n and_o the_o law_n be_v in_o the_o heart_n and_o with_o the_o light_n they_o see_v christ_n yea_o his_o flesh_n second_o john_n he_o bare_a witness_n to_o the_o light_n that_o enlighten_v every_o man_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n which_o be_v christ_n and_o christ_n say_v i_o be_o the_o light_n and_o believe_v in_o the_o light_n while_o you_o have_v the_o light_n that_o you_o may_v be_v child_n so_o there_o be_v no_o become_a child_n but_o by_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o apostle_n say_v god_n who_o command_v the_o light_n to_o shine_v out_o of_o darkness_n have_v shine_v in_o our_o heart_n to_o give_v we_o the_o ●ight_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n in_o the_o face_n of_o christ_n jesus_n and_o that_o be_v the_o treasure_n in_o earthen_a vessel_n so_o first_o thou_o be_v ignorant_a of_o this_o treasure_n and_o both_o thou_o and_o thy_o doctrine_n and_o thy_o principle_n fly_v away_o like_o that_o smoke_n thou_o speak_v of_o and_o the_o light_n remain_v which_o be_v thy_o condemnation_n the_o witness_n in_o thy_o conscience_n shall_v answer_v it_o which_o thou_o in_o thy_o uncleanness_n have_v long_o rebel_v against_o second_o thou_o that_o so_o rebel_n against_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n we_o speak_v of_o know_v not_o christ_n his_o flesh_n nor_o bone_n nor_o the_o father_n nor_o the_o holy_a ghost_n as_o first_o thus_o the_o light_n that_o shine_v in_o the_o heart_n give_v the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n in_o the_o face_n of_o christ_n and_o so_o without_o this_o light_n they_o have_v no_o knowledge_n of_o he_o and_o this_o we_o say_v to_o thou_o and_o all_o upon_o the_o earth_n that_o none_o know_v the_o father_n none_o know_v the_o son_n none_o know_v the_o holy_a ghost_n none_o know_v the_o flesh_n and_o blood_n and_o bone_n of_o christ_n but_o by_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n for_o that_o reveal_v he_o and_o not_o flesh_n and_o blood_n for_o thou_o be_v like_a to_o the_o jew_n who_o stop_v their_o ear_n and_o close_v their_o eye_n to_o that_o of_o god_n within_o they_o and_o therefore_o hear_v not_o see_v not_o so_o be_v not_o convert_v and_o such_o profess_a a_o christ_n be_v to_o come_v but_o persecute_v he_o when_o he_o be_v come_v as_o thou_o do_v now_o where_o he_o be_v make_v manifest_a in_o his_o light_n five_o thou_o say_v that_o we_o will_v have_v no_o person_n at_o all_o answer_n this_o be_v false_a though_o thou_o have_v lay_v it_o down_o general_a for_o christ_n be_v the_o express_a image_n of_o the_o father_n person_n we_o say_v as_o in_o hebrew_n but_o thou_o be_v the_o man_n who_o will_v have_v no_o person_n at_o all_o that_o deny_v the_o light_n for_o they_o that_o be_v in_o darkness_n can_v not_o see_v god_n nor_o christ_n nor_o the_o holy_a ghost_n that_o hate_v the_o light_n and_o the_o apostle_n say_v he_o in_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n which_o many_o do_v witness_n now_o glory_n to_o the_o lord_n for_o ever_o for_o if_o thou_o do_v profess_v they_o in_o thy_o word_n yet_o again_o in_o thy_o word_n thou_o that_o deny_v the_o light_n deny_v they_o and_o so_o babylon_n and_o blasphemous_o term_v it_o to_o smoke_n and_o for_o thy_o work_n the_o lord_n will_v reward_v thou_o six_o thou_o say_v a_o great_a part_n of_o we_o be_v of_o those_o wicked_a ranter_n that_o have_v be_v give_v over_o to_o bloodshed_n with_o a_o sword_n of_o steel_n or_o else_o to_o all_o manner_n of_o lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o now_o thou_o say_v we_o think_v by_o a_o more_o precise_a and_o exactness_n of_o life_n to_o recover_v our_o peace_n with_o god_n and_o yet_o deny_v the_o very_a person_n of_o god_n without_o we_o answer_n here_o again_o thou_o add_v lie_v unto_o lie_n but_o who_o be_v the_o father_n be_v know_v by_o we_o the_o child_n of_o the_o most_o high_a and_o what_o do_v the_o devil_n rage_n in_o thou_o because_o some_o that_o have_v be_v ranter_n and_o use_v outward_a weapon_n former_o now_o they_o be_v turn_v from_o these_o thing_n to_o god_n and_o christ_n the_o express_a image_n of_o the_o father_n person_n and_o come_v to_o live_v in_o christ_n and_o serve_v he_o in_o a_o new_a life_n therefore_o do_v thou_o rage_v they_o do_v not_o own_o their_o former_a principle_n that_o come_v among_o we_o but_o do_v judge_v they_o and_o deny_v they_o and_o all_o the_o lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o do_v their_o exactness_n of_o life_n and_o good_a conversation_n judge_v thou_o that_o make_v thou_o so_o fret_v and_o chase_v thyself_o and_o scoff_n and_o call_v it_o precise_a and_o to_o this_o thou_o add_v a_o lie_n and_o say_v we_o deny_v the_o very_a person_n of_o god_n without_o we_o but_o to_o this_o we_o say_v god_n fill_v heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o christ_n the_o express_a image_n of_o the_o father_n person_n be_v manifest_a within_o we_o and_o thou_o who_o rail_v at_o this_o do_v manifest_v thyself_o a_o reprobate_n one_o in_o who_o god_n and_o christ_n be_v not_o and_o a_o antichrist_n and_o a_o false_a witness_n and_o a_o lie_a spirit_n for_o christ_n say_v he_o will_v dwell_v in_o the_o saint_n and_o god_n will_v dwell_v in_o they_o and_o walk_v in_o they_o and_o have_v the_o devil_n make_v thou_o so_o blind_a and_o ignorant_a of_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o scripture_n who_o be_v give_v up_o to_o believe_v lie_n and_o who_o make_v lie_v thy_o refuge_n and_o have_v thou_o no_o other_o refuge_n but_o lie_n who_o by_o this_o manifest_v thyself_o to_o all_o sober_a people_n what_o thou_o be_v and_o from_o whence_o thou_o come_v and_o be_v not_o repentance_n hide_v from_o thy_o eye_n it_o be_v manifest_a by_o thy_o spirit_n yet_o we_o must_v say_v this_o to_o thou_o thou_o be_v in_o the_o unclean_a flesh_n and_o have_v a_o unclean_a body_n thy_o flesh_n burn_v with_o thy_o heat_n of_o thy_o lust_n and_o therefore_o thou_o have_v utter_v forth_o thy_o ruin_n nevertheless_o here_o be_v some_o query_n for_o thou_o to_o answer_v in_o
