15.9.6,7_o and_o it_o must_v be_v such_o a_o faith_n as_o purify_v the_o heart_n and_o be_v hold_v in_o a_o pure_a conscience_n and_o be_v manifest_a in_o the_o life_n by_o work_n of_o love_n and_o

his_o will_n he_o shall_v know_v of_o the_o doctrine_n whether_o it_o be_v of_o god_n or_o whether_o i_o speak_v of_o myself_o then_o immediate_o i_o consult_v not_o with_o flesh_n and_o blood_n but_o

how_o far_o any_o of_o we_o do_v witness_v a_o real_a change_n my_o soul_n be_v make_v to_o rejoice_v herein_o and_o for_o this_o i_o bow_v my_o knee_n to_o the_o god_n and_o father_n of_o our_o
