what_o be_v evil_a in_o their_o faith_n and_o manner_n or_o at_o least_o what_o we_o think_v to_o be_v so_o for_o herein_o we_o follow_v the_o dictate_v of_o our_o education_n but_o now_o in_o our_o

we_o and_o all_o mussulman_n be_v apt_a to_o believe_v that_o which_o give_v i_o the_o great_a scandal_n be_v that_o their_o doctor_n entertain_v some_o unwarrantable_a speculation_n about_o three_o

they_o say_v all_o thing_n be_v create_v and_o be_v conserve_v in_o their_o being_n they_o teach_v a_o doctrine_n repugnant_a to_o the_o alcoran_n when_o they_o say_v that_o god_n have_v a_o companion_n equal_a to_o himself_o as_o to_o the_o incarnation_n of_o jesus_n the_o son_n of_o mary_n the_o nazarenes_n assert_v nothing_o but_o what_o be_v suitable_a to_o the_o alcoran_n which_o teach_v we_o that_o he_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n in_o the_o history_n of_o his_o life_n they_o indeed_o come_v short_a of_o the_o mussulman_n there_o be_v not_o the_o least_o mention_n make_v in_o the_o whole_a book_n of_o the_o gospel_n of_o many_o passage_n in_o his_o infancy_n and_o tender_a year_n wherewith_o the_o alcoran_n with_o other_o holy_a book_n and_o tradition_n of_o the_o

of_o the_o divine_a essence_n other_o write_n also_o inform_v we_o that_o while_o he_o be_v young_a he_o form_v the_o figure_n of_o divers_a bird_n and_o beast_n of_o clay_n and_o his_o own_o spital_n

that_o in_o the_o whole_a it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o mussulman_n have_v a_o more_o particular_a relation_n of_o the_o life_n of_o jesus_n than_o the_o christian_n themselves_o have_v since_o

account_n which_o the_o christian_n give_v of_o the_o death_n of_o jesus_n though_o they_o bring_v authority_n also_o and_o testimony_n of_o their_o very_a enemy_n and_o inveterate_a persecutor_n the_o gentile_n who_o therefore_o one_o will_v think_v can_v be_v suspect_v of_o partiality_n in_o a_o word_n i_o know_v not_o what_o to_o think_v of_o these_o thing_n for_o if_o it_o be_v true_a that_o jesus_n die_v on_o the_o cross_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n as_o the_o christian_n believe_v and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o other_o way_n to_o be_v save_v but_o by_o believe_v this_o then_o in_o what_o a_o sad_a condition_n be_v all_o the_o jew_n and_o mussulman_n the_o one_o glory_v in_o have_v murder_v the_o saviour_n of_o the_o world_n and_o the_o other_o not_o believe_v that_o he_o be_v murder_v the_o first_o seem_v to_o merit_v most_o of_o man_n since_o though_o the_o act_n be_v cruel_a in_o itself_o yet_o according_a to_o this_o doctrine_n it_o bring_v salvation_n to_o all_o our_o race_n and_o therefore_o there_o be_v a_o sort_n of_o christian_n in_o former_a time_n who_o worship_v the_o serpent_n that_o tempt_v eve_n because_o according_a to_o their_o faith_n that_o temptation_n be_v the_o first_o step_v to_o mankind_n happiness_n after_o adam_n fall_n and_o they_o place_v judas_n who_o betray_v jesus_n to_o the_o jew_n among_o the_o saint_n for_o have_v be_v so_o particular_a a_o instrument_n in_o the_o world_n redemption_n if_o jesus_n be_v the_o saviour_n of_o man_n it_o be_v absolute_o necessary_a to_o believe_v in_o he_o but_o whether_o he_o be_v or_o be_v not_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o christian_n in_o that_o point_n can_v hurt_v they_o since_o our_o holy_a prophet_n himself_o have_v teach_v we_o that_o christian_n shall_v be_v save_v as_o well_o as_o the_o mussulman_n whereas_o the_o christian_n say_v it_o be_v impossible_a for_o any_o to_o be_v save_v who_o follow_v the_o law_n of_o mahomet_n so_o that_o they_o have_v our_o own_o

ingenuous_o be_v i_o convince_v that_o jesus_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o that_o he_o suffer_v death_n for_o the_o sake_n of_o man_n i_o can_v ready_o embrace_v most_o of_o the_o other_o
