be_v follower_n of_o christ_n and_o not_o separate_v from_o sinner_n christ_n be_v so_o he_o go_v one_o way_n and_o sinner_n go_v another_o they_o follow_v their_o sin_n and_o lust_n but_o he_o follow_v the_o work_n his_o heavenly_a father_n send_v he_o about_o if_o thou_o be_v a_o follower_n of_o christ_n thou_o be_v worthy_a of_o the_o name_n of_o a_o christian_n do_v drunkard_n and_o

christian_n this_o be_v a_o reproach_n and_o shame_n to_o the_o holy_a name_n of_o jesus_n and_o to_o true_a christianity_n that_o any_o of_o these_o folk_n shall_v be_v call_v christian_n but_o such_o as_o be_v follower_n of_o christ_n who_o be_v holy_a harmless_a and_o undefiled_a and_o separate_a from_o sinner_n this_o be_v such_o a_o strange_a kind_n of_o doctrine_n yet_o if_o it_o have_v be_v preach_v in_o the_o primitive_a time_n there_o be_v people_n that_o will_v have_v receive_v it_o as_o apostolical_a doctrine_n that_o a_o man_n shall_v crucify_v the_o flesh_n with_o the_o

doctrine_n then_o now_o come_v and_o tell_v a_o man_n he_o shall_v certain_o perish_v and_o come_v to_o damnation_n for_o all_o his_o profession_n if_o he_o do_v not_o mortify_v the_o deed_n of_o the_o flesh_n if_o he_o live_v in_o sin_n and_o die_v in_o it_o he_o be_v like_a to_o perish_v how_o many_o have_v be_v hale_v to_o gaol_n and_o dungeon_n only_o for_o preach_v this_o doctrine_n and_o when_o we_o be_v first_o send_v to_o preach_v we_o dare_v not_o do_v otherwise_o and_o god_n do_v not_o send_v we_o to_o preach_v till_o he_o have_v wash_v we_o and_o sanctify_v we_o and_o fit_v we_o for_o the_o work_n of_o the_o ministry_n now_o when_o we_o see_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n that_o god_n do_v work_v upon_o other_o by_o his_o spirit_n before_o he_o send_v they_o to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n be_v not_o here_o sufficient_a authority_n give_v to_o preach_v the_o downfall_n of_o sin_n and_o destruction_n of_o it_o one_o will_v think_v that_o such_o a_o one_o thus_o call_v

to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n if_o we_o shall_v say_v we_o be_v make_v preacher_n if_o you_o ask_v by_o who_o never_o a_o man_n in_o the_o world_n can_v tell_v you_o but_o we_o be_v make_v preacher_n
