take_v it_o if_o not_o for_o a_o genuine_a and_o proper_a explication_n if_o so_o be_v it_o be_v in_o the_o least_o inconsistent_a with_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n to_o be_v my_o

ever_o very_o long_o if_o it_o shall_v please_v god_n to_o afford_v it_o unto_o i_o have_v thus_o far_o proceed_v to_o explain_v amend_v and_o retract_v those_o particular_a passage_n in_o my_o book_n

testimony_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n within_o i_o and_o also_o by_o the_o concurrent_a testimony_n of_o all_o true_a christian_n in_o all_o age_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o that_o doctrine_n god_n have_v raise_v i_o up_o to_o contend_v for_o which_o three_o be_v as_o a_o threefold_a cord_n that_o can_v be_v break_v that_o whatever_o my_o imperfection_n be_v in_o manage_v this_o great_a

calumny_n yet_o the_o truth_n and_o integrity_n of_o my_o testimony_n will_v overcome_v it_o all_o and_o will_v shine_v forth_o and_o be_v manifest_a and_o the_o generation_n to_o come_v of_o the_o posterity_n of_o many_o of_o that_o people_n who_o now_o account_v i_o their_o enemy_n and_o pour_v out_o curse_n and_o lie_a prophecy_n against_o i_o will_v regard_v my_o testimony_n and_o it_o

unto_o i_o that_o some_o of_o my_o great_a adversary_n have_v acknowledge_v they_o have_v nothing_o against_o my_o moral_n nor_o doctrine_n and_o it_o be_v come_v under_o the_o observation_n of_o many_o that_o hear_v they_o in_o their_o meeting_n how_o admirable_o they_o be_v change_v of_o late_a to_o preach_v the_o very_a same_o doctrine_n which_o former_o they_o have_v so_o fierce_o oppose_v in_o all_o that_o be_v not_o of_o their_o way_n and_o for_o which_o they_o have_v excommunicate_v i_o but_o they_o can_v be_v judge_v sincere_a until_o they_o plain_o retract_v their_o former_a

in_o that_o case_n just_o offend_v they_o and_o though_o i_o do_v with_o deep_a regrat_n acknowledge_v and_o blame_v my_o too_o great_a rashness_n in_o give_v hard_a name_n and_o pass_v uncharitable_a censure_n on_o divers_a with_o who_o i_o have_v differ_v in_o point_n of_o judgement_n be_v engage_v in_o the_o heat_n of_o controversy_n and_o divers_a time_n provoke_v by_o the_o hard_a name_n and_o uncharitable_a censure_n that_o some_o of_o my_o opponent_n have_v give_v i_o which_o provocation_n i_o shall_v not_o have_v give_v way_n to_o but_o rather_o according_a to_o what_o the_o scripture_n require_v to_o have_v seek_v in_o meekness_n to_o instruct_v they_o that_o oppose_v themselves_o if_o god_n peradventure_o will_v give_v they_o repentance_n yet_o i_o be_v never_o so_o uncharitable_a as_o to_o think_v or_o judge_v that_o few_o or_o none_o be_v true_o pious_a or_o of_o a_o true_a christian_a spirit_n or_o that_o do_v belong_v to_o the_o true_a church_n of_o christ_n but_o such_o as_o be_v of_o the_o same_o outward_a profession_n with_o i_o for_o the_o contrary_a i_o have_v several_a time_n signify_v in_o print_n and_o as_o i_o have_v be_v charitable_a in_o my_o judgement_n with_o respect_n to_o other_o with_o who_o i_o have_v dister_v in_o controversal_a point_n when_o i_o do_v think_v they_o hold_v the_o head_n and_o build_v on_o christ_n the_o true_a foundation_n though_o some_o part_n of_o what_o they_o build_v be_v but_o hay_n wood_n and_o stubble_n so_o it_o be_v my_o resolution_n by_o divine_a assistance_n to_o be_v yet_o more_o charitable_a in_o judgement_n concern_v other_o that_o differ_v from_o i_o in_o the_o lesser_a matter_n when_o they_o agree_v with_o i_o in_o the_o great_a and_o who_o manner_n of_o life_n and_o conversation_n be_v suitable_a to_o their_o christian_a profession_n but_o as_o for_o such_o who_o deny_v the_o lord_n that_o buy_v they_o and_o hold_v such_o antichristian_a principle_n as_o oppugn_v the_o great_a fundamental_o of_o the_o christian_a religion_n as_o i_o have_v sufficient_o prove_v my_o late_a adversary_n to_o have_v do_v the_o great_a and_o best_a charity_n that_o i_o can_v extend_v unto_o they_o be_v to_o deal_v roundly_o and_o plain_o with_o they_o and_o give_v they_o and_o their_o vile_a error_n such_o sit_v and_o proper_a name_n as_o they_o deserve_v and_o as_o the_o scripture_n give_v to_o such_o who_o be_v guilty_a of_o such_o vile_a error_n in_o former_a time_n but_o the_o nasty_a and_o unclean_a term_n and_o word_n worse_o than_o billingsgate_n that_o some_o call_v teacher_n among_o the_o quaker_n and_o some_o of_o which_o be_v my_o present_a adversary_n have_v give_v to_o their_o opponent_n i_o account_v it_o my_o mercy_n that_o i_o never_o have_v the_o
