the_o natural_a man_n receive_v not_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n for_o they_o be_v foolishness_n unto_o he_o neither_o can_v he_o know_v they_o because_o they_o be_v spiritua_o

which_o we_o owe_v to_o the_o divine_a majesty_n for_o all_o his_o bounty_n and_o favour_n towards_o we_o it_o great_o behoove_v all_o people_n to_o be_v very_o serious_a and_o weighty_a in_o that_o

the_o want_n of_o a_o right_a understanding_n upon_o these_o account_n have_v occasion_v great_a miscarriage_n and_o defect_n among_o people_n in_o religion_n matter_n and_o be_v one_o great_a

together_o with_o the_o drawing_n of_o divine_a love_n have_v induce_v i_o to_o the_o publication_n of_o this_o follow_a treatise_n wherein_o divers_a thing_n relate_v to_o the_o worship_n and_o

favour_n of_o this_o discourse_n yet_o for_o several_a reason_n i_o rather_o choose_v to_o keep_v close_o to_o the_o holy_a scripture_n inasmuch_o as_o i_o conceive_v those_o who_o be_v incline_v to_o be_v religious_a will_v not_o dare_v to_o make_v exception_n against_o that_o which_o be_v conclude_v to_o proceed_v from_o the_o divine_a spirit_n let_v none_o be_v offend_v that_o i_o do_v not_o

they_o for_o by_o what_o be_v here_o write_a i_o do_v no_o way_n intend_v to_o undervalue_v human_a learning_n or_o lessen_v its_o esteem_n in_o the_o mind_n of_o such_o as_o be_v incline_v to_o make_v a_o right_a use_n thereof_o for_o i_o do_v grant_v that_o it_o be_v good_a and_o serviceable_a in_o its_o place_n yea_o it_o be_v and_o may_v be_v serviceable_a upon_o many_o account_n to_o a_o gospel_n minister_n where_o it_o be_v reduce_v to_o a_o bless_a subordination_n and_o conformity_n to_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n but_o then_o if_o people_n will_v attempt_v to_o exalt_v it_o above_o the_o teach_n of_o the_o divine_a spirit_n and_o lay_v that_o stress_n upon_o it_o for_o open_v the_o mystery_n of_o truth_n which_o the_o holy_a ghost_n will_v not_o admit_v of_o in_o that_o case_n i_o find_v myself_o concern_v to_o bear_v a_o testimony_n for_o the_o truth_n and_o against_o the_o vanity_n of_o such_o as_o will_v extol_v human_a learning_n and_o natural_a art_n and_o
