deliver_v those_o in_o who_o it_o be_v from_o all_o their_o enemy_n from_o all_o their_o bondage_n and_o captivity_n first_o it_o set_v they_o at_o liberty_n from_o sin_n and_o satan_n i_o join_v

the_o soul_n free_a in_o its_o affection_n through_o its_o light_n discover_v the_o evil_a nature_n of_o sin_n and_o so_o its_o power_n in_o deliver_v the_o soul_n from_o the_o love_n of_o it_o believe_v it_o friend_n this_o be_v the_o light_n and_o liberty_n of_o the_o spirit_n it_o enlighten_v soul_n to_o see_v the_o evil_n of_o sin_n and_o where_o it_o be_v a_o light_n enlighten_v there_o

have_v love_n and_o grace_n in_o it_o be_v set_v at_o liberty_n from_o the_o inordinate_a affection_n to_o it_o by_o this_o spirit_n of_o liberty_n and_o this_o be_v the_o second_o part_n of_o the_o

slave_n and_o subject_n unto_o man_n in_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n the_o truth_n be_v that_o man_n through_o the_o power_n and_o spirit_n of_o antichrist_n that_o son_n of_o perdition_n have_v a_o long_a time_n out_o of_o that_o pride_n of_o heart_n natural_o reside_v in_o they_o get_v into_o the_o seat_n of_o god_n exalt_v themselves_o above_o all_o that_o be_v call_v god_n have_v become_v a_o

unto_o it_o yet_o it_o be_v that_o i_o have_v say_v often_o and_o must_v now_o speak_v it_o again_o that_o its_o such_o a_o law_n such_o a_o discovery_n as_o in_o it_o all_o carnal_a one_o and_o

a_o low_a darken_a and_o enslave_v spirit_n and_o be_v indeed_o barbarism_n to_o a_o soul_n in_o lightness_n we_o know_v that_o all_o thing_n be_v good_a and_o that_o which_o you_o call_v sin_n be_v
