spirit_n and_o no_o body_n to_o this_o i_o can_v but_o answer_v who_o they_o be_v that_o deny_v christ_n body_n or_o ascension_n as_o in_o scripture_n it_o be_v declare_v i_o know_v not_o for_o all_o

this_o thou_o say_v to_o prove_v christ_n be_v not_o the_o light_n in_o the_o conscience_n and_o then_o bring_v a_o scripture_n where_o christ_n say_v i_o be_o come_v a_o light_n and_o that_o if_o

from_o the_o entrance_n of_o transgression_n to_o this_o day_n be_v the_o not_o come_v to_o or_o believe_v in_o the_o light_n for_o here_o christ_n condemn_v of_o sin_n and_o convince_v of_o sin_n because_o of_o unbelief_n in_o that_o which_o condemn_v they_o which_o be_v the_o spirit_n or_o light_n so_o thou_o have_v bring_v scripture_n that_o christ_n say_v he_o be_v come_v a_o light_n to_o prove_v thy_o humane_a against_o the_o light_n and_o it_o prove_v against_o thou_o and_o for_o we_o that_o testify_v of_o the_o light_n but_o thou_o say_v in_o another_o place_n christ_n be_v not_o
