in_o all_o other_o thing_n that_o be_v not_o absolute_o necessary_a but_o profitable_a and_o serviceable_a the_o profit_n &_o service_n be_v apparent_a as_o when_o a_o man_n may_v labour_v the_o

it_o will_v follow_v because_o gentilism_n contain_v few_o precept_n than_o christianity_n therefore_o gentilism_n be_v the_o more_o profitable_a &_o do_v more_o facilitate_v man_n perfection_n who_o be_v under_o it_o even_o as_o a_o artist_n that_o can_v perfect_v his_o work_n with_o few_o and_o less_o chargeable_a tool_n &_o instrument_n be_v the_o most_o perfect_a and_o be_v worthy_a of_o most_o praise_n but_o because_o all_o the_o precept_n of_o christianity_n be_v spiritual_a and_o give_v we_o by_o god_n and_o christ_n to_o bring_v we_o to_o that_o spiritual_a perfection_n that_o the_o law_n either_o of_o judaisme_n or_o gentilism_n simple_o consider_v can_v not_o do_v the_o law_n be_v weak_a through_o the_o flesh_n and_o so_o can_v not_o make_v perfect_a therefore_o it_o be_v that_o on_o that_o very_a account_n christianity_n be_v the_o most_o excellent_a dispensation_n both_o for_o its_o spirituality_n and_o give_v more_o plenty_n of_o precept_n than_o gentilism_n do_v or_o do_v for_o as_o christianity_n have_v more_o plenty_n of_o precept_n that_o be_v high_o spiritual_a and_o tend_v to_o a_o more_o high_a and_o spiritual_a perfection_n than_o gentilism_n so_o it_o have_v more_o plenty_n of_o divine_a grace_n and_o of_o life_n to_o enable_v they_o who_o be_v under_o it_o to_o perform_v they_o whereby_o they_o attain_v to_o the_o perfection_n design_v but_o this_o doctrine_n that_o the_o gospel_n &_o faith_n of_o christ_n both_o outward_o and_o inward_o be_v not_o necessary_a to_o perfect_v the_o work_n of_o man_n salvation_n do_v most_o manifest_o contradict_v the_o whole_a current_n of_o holy_a scripture_n and_o be_v a_o most_o pernicious_a and_o pestiferous_a principle_n altogether_o tend_v to_o the_o dishonour_n of_o god_n and_o christ_n

to_o perfect_a salvation_n must_v needs_o infer_v the_o necessity_n of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o revolution_n at_o least_o after_o some_o sort_n but_o not_o as_o vulgar_o understand_v i_o do_v
