5.12_o as_o by_o one_o man_n sin_n enter_v into_o the_o world_n and_o death_n by_o sin_n and_o so_o death_n pass_v upon_o all_o man_n for_o that_o all_o have_v sin_v sure_o then_o our_o perfection_n

concerning_o that_o law_n that_o you_o say_v be_v write_v in_o man_n heart_n by_o which_o only_o they_o be_v to_o be_v guide_v second_o concerning_o that_o light_n you_o say_v be_v within_o a_o man_n

with_o you_o and_o all_o of_o your_o opinion_n till_o you_o return_v again_o to_o the_o own_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n lay_v down_o in_o the_o scripture_n and_o submit_v to_o order_n and_o

must_v first_o lay_v down_o your_o own_o word_n and_o then_o answer_v they_o for_o i_o desire_v to_o be_v faithful_a and_o not_o to_o wrong_v you_o in_o a_o syllable_n your_o word_n be_v these_o and_o thou_o priest_n fog_n of_o liverpool_n who_o say_v they_o that_o hold_v forth_o the_o way_n of_o perfection_n hold_v not_o the_o way_n of_o god_n but_o from_o under_o this_o thou_o can_v not_o get_v but_o under_o the_o condemnation_n must_v come_v and_o your_o reason_n be_v annex_v viz._n for_o the_o way_n of_o god_n be_v perfect_a which_o way_n be_v jesus_n christ_n for_o say_v he_o i_o be_o the_o way_n the_o truth_n and_o the_o life_n no_o man_n come_v to_o the_o father_n but_o by_o i_o but_o before_o i_o come_v to_o the_o answer_n of_o this_o from_o under_o the_o just_a censure_n of_o false_a accusation_n you_o can_v get_v i_o use_v your_o own_o language_n for_o mr._n fog_n be_v far_o from_o deny_v the_o way_n of_o god_n to_o be_v perfect_a or_o from_o deny_v christ_n to_o be_v the_o way_n the_o truth_n and_o the_o life_n but_o his_o argument_n be_v that_o neither_o you_o nor_o any_o man_n nor_o woman_n upon_o earth_n have_v attain_v to_o perfection_n so_o as_o to_o be_v absolute_o perfect_a in_o this_o life_n and_o for_o all_o he_o bring_v in_o many_o pertinent_a scripture_n to_o make_v good_a what_o he_o say_v yet_o you_o stick_v not_o so_o far_o to_o abuse_v he_o that_o you_o bury_v they_o all_o in_o silence_n not_o mention_v one_o of_o they_o i_o can_v conceive_v why_o you_o shall_v do_v so_o unless_o it_o be_v your_o aim_n to_o hold_v he_o forth_o to_o the_o

a_o thing_n his_o ability_n be_v better_o know_v than_o your_o own_o i_o shall_v pass_v by_o that_o disorder_n that_o you_o true_o acknowledge_v be_v that_o day_n which_o be_v the_o occasion_n that_o

decency_n 1_o cor._n 14.40_o i_o shall_v now_o proceed_v to_o the_o direct_a answer_n of_o your_o question_n viz._n whether_o perfection_n be_v attainable_a in_o this_o life_n yea_o or_o no_o you_o say_v it_o be_v i_o say_v it_o be_v not_o except_o we_o take_v along_o with_o we_o these_o follow_a limitation_n or_o as_o i_o may_v call_v they_o these_o step_n to_o or_o degree_n of_o perfection_n
