be_v true_o make_v ought_v to_o be_v choose_v by_o a_o joint_a consent_n of_o the_o church_n and_o to_o be_v a_o man_n of_o their_o own_o coast_n that_o be_v of_o the_o same_o church_n and_o his_o

whence_o we_o may_v see_v that_o the_o true_a ministry_n have_v not_o so_o large_a a_o licence_n as_o you_o travel_a minister_n have_v unless_o be_v be_v the_o apostle_n they_o go_v from_o place_n to_o place_n to_o plant_v church_n but_o not_o to_o look_v for_o the_o big_a live_n but_o where_o the_o lord_n have_v any_o work_n to_o do_v they_o do_v it_o and_o yet_o do_v not_o bargain_n before_o

the_o sum_n of_o that_o be_v no_o more_o but_o a_o state_n of_o resurrection_n make_v know_v to_o the_o son_n of_o man_n and_o in_o this_o you_o fight_v with_o your_o own_o shadow_n again_o second_o

that_o you_o shall_v have_v prove_v if_o you_o have_v intend_v to_o touch_v i_o that_o adam_n have_v a_o promise_n of_o heaven_n before_o his_o fall_n and_o that_o by_o his_o fall_n he_o lose_v it_o

to_o i_o what_o their_o opinion_n be_v it_o be_v proof_n of_o scripture_n for_o what_o you_o affirm_v that_o i_o look_v for_o and_o without_o it_o your_o word_n or_o they_o be_v nothing_o and_o further_o let_v i_o tell_v you_o that_o eternal_a life_n and_o immortality_n dwell_v in_o the_o second_o adam_n and_o not_o in_o the_o first_o and_o whereas_o you_o say_v that_o adam_n have_v a_o
