the_o visible_a church_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v under_o the_o doctrine_n and_o ordinance_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o covenant_n many_o be_v call_v but_o few_o be_v choose_v and_o these_o impostor_n and_o perverter_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n that_o teach_v that_o all_o have_v the_o law_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n write_v in_o their_o heart_n may_v as_o true_o say_v that_o all_o have_v the_o promise_n thereof_o write_v in_o their_o heart_n than_o which_o nothing_o be_v more_o absurd_a therefore_o i_o conclude_v that_o as_o the_o promise_n of_o the_o covenant_n be_v upon_o divine_a record_n that_o we_o may_v have_v hope_n for_o ourselves_o and_o child_n so_o likewise_o be_v the_o rule_n that_o we_o be_v to_o conform_v unto_o in_o order_n to_o the_o receive_n of_o the_o

have_v urge_v and_o i_o have_v answer_v already_o in_o the_o first_o question_n there_o they_o say_v the_o spirit_n be_v the_o rule_n here_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n in_o they_o the_o sole_a
