hardly_o to_o be_v suppose_v that_o we_o can_v intend_v so_o gross_a a_o thing_n or_o that_o it_o be_v inferrible_a from_o the_o manner_n of_o express_v of_o ourselves_o in_o reference_n to_o christ_n

make_v flesh_n by_o god_n and_o therefore_o make_v holy_a flesh_n for_o god_n never_o make_v any_o corrupt_a or_o sinful_a flesh_n if_o the_o place_n be_v read_v as_o some_o do_v viz._n the_o word_n take_v flesh_n the_o flesh_n must_v be_v holy_a for_o he_o will_v not_o take_v or_o dwell_v in_o sinful_a flesh_n and_o have_v the_o bishop_n well_o remember_v what_o he_o acknowledge_v upon_o our_o

sinful_a flesh_n or_o a_o corrupt_a person_n can_v never_o be_v any_o part_n of_o a_o sacrifice_n for_o sin_n so_o that_o in_o commend_v that_o part_n of_o our_o belief_n he_o have_v sufficient_o secure_v we_o against_o this_o part_n of_o his_o insinuation_n but_o the_o bishop_n proceed_v to_o aggravate_v our_o shortness_n in_o expression_n to_o a_o severe_a imputation_n viz._n that_o we_o

in_o the_o first_o and_o five_o line_n of_o the_o eight_o and_o in_o the_o first_o line_n of_o our_o ten_o gospel-truth_n how_o the_o bishop_n come_v to_o miss_v in_o so_o palpable_a a_o point_n of_o

trifle_a as_o well_o as_o disingenuous_a as_o to_o excuse_v himself_o herein_o because_o we_o do_v not_o call_v the_o word_n that_o take_v flesh_n by_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n in_o that_o place_n since_o the_o bishop_n repeat_v it_o from_o we_o out_o of_o our_o aforesaid_a four_o head_n about_o justification_n by_o christ_n where_o we_o call_v he_o by_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n as_o may_v be_v see_v in_o the_o second_o and_o forego_v paragraph_n of_o his_o reflection_n beside_o we_o have_v not_o confess_v his_o name_n less_o than_o nine_o time_n in_o that_o paper_n but_o if_o the_o

full_a of_o grace_n and_o truth_n i_o wonder_v how_o the_o bishop_n come_v to_o suppose_v a_o thing_n in_o our_o name_n so_o very_o gross_a but_o he_o proceed_v in_o the_o same_o paragraph_n you_o
