i_o repeat_v be_v the_o 1_o cor._n 6.11_o where_o the_o apostle_n say_v but_o you_o be_v wash_v but_o you_o be_v justify_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o far_o he_o assert_v that_o i_o query_v

the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o i_o and_o to_o prove_v it_o he_o lay_v down_o three_o argument_n the_o which_o i_o here_o sleight_n as_o not_o worth_a the_o mention_v only_o this_o i_o look_v upon_o

people_n that_o hear_v to_o the_o question_v propound_v the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o some_o that_o be_v bad_a sinner_n as_o we_o may_v read_v in_o the_o 1_o cor._n 10.11_o but_o they_o be_v wash_v

and_o justify_v now_o as_o well_o as_o other_o heretofore_o this_o question_n ought_v to_o have_v be_v answer_v direct_o to_o because_o it_o be_v common_o speak_v of_o by_o many_o in_o the_o world_n that_o there_o be_v no_o revelation_n now_o adays_o and_o no_o freedom_n from_o in_o on_o this_o side_n the_o grave_a and_o if_o so_o then_o indeed_o there_o be_v no_o spiritual_a wash_v nor_o

cease_v now_o adays_o for_o god_n have_v show_v by_o his_o spirit_n or_o light_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n in_o these_o day_n the_o thing_n that_o belong_v unto_o his_o peace_n he_o show_v unto_o man_n now_o as_o in_o day_n past_a that_o he_o shall_v do_v just_o love_v mercy_n and_o walâ—_n humble_o with_o the_o lord_n and_o this_o revelation_n or_o manifestation_n of_o god_n by_o his_o

of_o god_n which_o be_v all_o one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n though_o call_v by_o several_a name_n and_o by_o love_v and_o obey_v it_o i_o believe_v many_o be_v come_v to_o depart_v from_o sin_n
