you_o know_v your_o writer_n be_v divide_v about_o it_o but_o to_o the_o scripture_n you_o allege_v we_o need_v not_o as_o you_o say_v we_o must_v but_o through_o the_o help_n of_o his_o grace_n we_o

scripture_n 1._o that_o you_o do_v not_o show_v particular_o where_o their_o pertinency_n lie_v or_o how_o you_o will_v apply_v they_o to_o the_o point_n you_o aim_v at_o they_o be_v in_o their_o plain_a and_o genuine_a sense_n most_o remote_a from_o it_o 2._o that_o they_o do_v not_o prove_v inerrability_n in_o those_o to_o who_o they_o be_v speak_v and_o intend_v for_o they_o be_v as_o applicable_a to_o every_o other_o church_n yea_o to_o every_o true_a believer_n as_o to_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n for_o every_o true_a believer_n have_v the_o spirit_n of_o grace_n and_o truth_n dwell_v in_o he_o and_o be_v enlighten_v thereby_o to_o know_v the_o mystery_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n but_o yet_o it_o do_v not_o follow_v nor_o will_v you_o affirm_v that_o every_o true_a believer_n that_o every_o godly_a man_n and_o every_o godly_a woman_n be_v infallible_a 3._o we_o answer_v further_o that_o these_o promise_n and_o scripture_n be_v not_o give_v to_o the_o pope_n and_o church_n of_o rome_n there_o be_v no_o pretence_n nor_o colour_n for_o it_o how_o ill_o do_v it_o become_v you_o who_o do_v deny_v the_o perseverance_n of_o true_a believer_n to_o claim_v to_o yourselves_o a_o interest_n in_o such_o promise_n that_o the_o spirit_n shall_v remain_v with_o you_o for_o ever_o it_o be_v never_o say_v to_o the_o pope_n you_o be_v the_o light_n of_o the_o world_n for_o he_o be_v indeed_o the_o angel_n of_o death_n the_o messenger_n and_o instrument_n of_o darkness_n a_o star_n fall_v from_o heaven_n who_o have_v open_v the_o bottomless_a pit_n and_o
