2.14_o 15._o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o gentile_n who_o have_v not_o the_o law_n yet_o have_v their_o conscience_n bear_v witness_n and_o accuse_v or_o excuse_v one_o another_o though_o they_o

much_o improve_v and_o yet_o the_o heart_n not_o renew_v what_o spiritual_a conviction_n what_o but_o then_o there_o be_v a_o spiritual_a conviction_n and_o this_o be_v that_o work_n of_o the_o

that_o be_v a_o sound_n and_o through_o work_n many_o have_v their_o conviction_n but_o not_o this_o spiritual_a conviction_n quere_z quere_z now_o you_o will_v say_v suppose_v i_o be_o at_o any_o

by_o these_o sin_n bear_v a_o more_o immediate_a relation_n to_o the_o holiness_n of_o god_n who_o only_o be_v offend_v by_o they_o they_o be_v such_o as_o none_o else_o can_v see_v or_o know_v 2._o natural_a conviction_n deal_v only_o with_o a_o man_n conversation_n not_o with_o his_o state_n and_o condition_n with_o sin_n actual_a not_o original_a but_o spiritual_a conviction_n reach_v to_o all_o sin_n to_o sin_n of_o heart_n as_o well_o as_o sin_n of_o life_n to_o the_o sin_n of_o our_o nature_n as_o well_o as_o the_o sin_n of_o practice_n to_o the_o sin_n that_o be_v bear_v in_o we_o
