these_o attendant_n upon_o this_o one_o fundamental_a the_o system_fw-la of_o christianity_n will_v be_v lame_a and_o incoherent_a and_o it_o can_v indeed_o be_v know_v what_o be_v mean_v by_o say_v

6.1_o 2._o if_o we_o believe_v he_o such_o a_o messiah_n as_o the_o scripture_n represent_v he_o such_o part_n of_o our_o belief_n will_v have_v beside_o the_o explain_n of_o our_o faith_n a_o great_a

again_o we_o ought_v above_o all_o thing_n to_o be_v satisfy_v in_o his_o divinity_n for_o if_o we_o do_v not_o acknowledge_v he_o to_o be_v one_o god_n with_o the_o father_n and_o worship_v he_o according_o we_o neglect_v a_o gospel_n duty_n and_o if_o we_o do_v worship_v any_o thing_n but_o the_o one_o god_n we_o be_v idolater_n as_o for_o his_o satisfaction_n a_o right_a notion_n of_o it_o

have_v do_v for_o we_o these_o i_o say_v must_v all_o go_v along_o with_o that_o one_o fundamental_a and_o to_o our_o belief_n of_o this_o there_o be_v nothing_o more_o require_v than_o our_o belief_n of_o the_o authority_n of_o holy_a writ_n where_o these_o thing_n be_v plain_o reveal_v to_o we_o if_o we_o do_v believe_v the_o scripture_n to_o be_v authentic_a we_o must_v believe_v it_o our_o
