we_o must_v bow_v rather_o at_o the_o name_n jesus_n than_o christ_n i_o answer_v i_o have_v prove_v already_o that_o jesus_n signify_v the_o office_n of_o our_o saviour_n as_o well_o as_o christ_n though_o more_o summary_o and_o i_o affirm_v again_o that_o the_o name_n christ_n do_v everywhere_o denote_v christ_n person_n as_o well_o as_o the_o name_n jesus_n and_o if_o this_o distinction_n

he_o bring_v we_o to_o god_n and_o make_v know_v unto_o we_o the_o father_n therefore_o this_o reason_n be_v without_o ground_n and_o without_o any_o light_n from_o scripture_n the_o only_a consequent_a that_o the_o scripture_n give_v signification_n of_o upon_o this_o ground_n be_v this_o because_o christ_n bring_v we_o to_o god_n and_o reveal_v to_o we_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o
