man_n in_o his_o absence_n but_o he_o himself_o be_v always_o present_a in_o his_o true_a church_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n both_o to_o teach_v they_o and_o to_o give_v they_o his_o spirit_n he_o be_v too_o much_o in_o the_o darkness_n of_o antichrist_n that_o deny_v this_o it_o be_v manifest_a then_o that_o all_o the_o true_a church_n alike_o receive_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o that_o they_o all_o receive_v it_o alike_o immediate_o from_o god_n see_v no_o man_n nor_o angel_n can_v give_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n but_o god_n himself_o give_v his_o own_o spirit_n to_o who_o he_o please_v by_o his_o own_o word_n which_o he_o himself_o minister_n by_o his_o own_o spirit_n and_o by_o this_o spirit_n do_v holy_a man_n speak_v the_o scripture_n and_o by_o this_o spirit_n only_o do_v holy_a man_n of_o god_n understand_v the_o scripture_n as_o paul_n say_v 1_o cor._n 2_o 12._o now_o we_o have_v receive_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o world_n but_o the_o spirit_n which_o be_v of_o god_n that_o we_o may_v know_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v free_o give_v to_o we_o of_o god_n among_o which_o his_o word_n have_v a_o chief_a place_n and_o after_o say_v that_o by_o the_o spirit_n they_o have_v the_o mind_n of_o christ_n which_o other_o want_v who_o yet_o have_v the_o same_o letter_n of_o the_o word_n and_o be_v destitute_a of_o the_o spirit_n and_o so_o as_o the_o faithful_a speak_v the_o word_n by_o the_o spirit_n of_o faith_n so_o through_o the_o same_o spirit_n of_o faith_n only_o so_o give_v do_v the_o faithful_a understand_v it_o and_o though_o this_o thing_n be_v clear_a in_o itself_o yet_o i_o judge_v it_o convenient_a to_o add_v here_o the_o testimony_n of_o luther_n and_o calvin_n in_o this_o matter_n luther_n say_v the_o scripture_n be_v not_o to_o be_v understand_v but_o by_o that_o very_a spirit_n by_o which_o they_o be_v write_v which_o spirit_n can_v be_v nowhere_o find_v more_o ready_o and_o effectual_o then_o in_o those_o holy_a letter_n of_o he_o which_o he_o have_v write_v 4._o and_o calvin_n say_v the_o same_o spirit_n that_o speak_v by_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o prophet_n it_o be_v necessary_a that_o that_o shall_v pierce_v into_o our_o heart_n to_o persuade_v we_o that_o they_o faithful_o deliver_v that_o which_o be_v commit_v to_o they_o of_o god_n so_o that_o we_o must_v necessary_o have_v the_o same_o spirit_n to_o know_v his_o mind_n that_o they_o have_v to_o utter_v his_o mind_n wherefore_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o mr._n simpson_n be_v not_o orthodox_a in_o this_o point_n neither_o 8._o error_n that_o man_n now_o be_v to_o get_v knowledge_n to_o wit_v of_o the_o scripture_n by_o study_n and_o human_a learning_n error_n and_o not_o by_o inspiration_n answer_n this_o doctrine_n carry_v the_o visible_a mark_n of_o antichrist_n upon_o it_o for_o it_o be_v only_o the_o inspiration_n of_o god_n answer_n that_o enable_v a_o man_n to_o know_v the_o thing_n of_o god_n and_o not_o a_o man_n study_n or_o human_a learning_n it_o be_v not_o in_o this_o case_n in_o he_o that_o will_v or_o run_v but_o in_o god_n that_o show_v mercy_n wherefore_o christ_n have_v say_v no_o man_n know_v the_o son_n but_o the_o father_n and_o he_o to_o whosoever_o the_o father_n will_v re●eal_v he_o wherefore_o paul_n pray_v for_o the_o ephesian_n that_o god_n will_v give_v they_o the_o spirit_n of_o wisdom_n and_o revelation_n in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n without_o which_o spirit_n of_o revelation_n christ_n and_o the_o father_n can_v never_o be_v know_v what_o can_v human_a learning_n and_o the_o study_n of_o man_n find_v out_o of_o the_o mystery_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v hide_v from_o age_n and_o generation_n as_o paul_n testify_v till_o the_o spirit_n reveal_v it_o yea_o christ_n have_v teach_v that_o god_n hide_v these_o thing_n of_o the_o gospel_n from_o the_o wise_a and_o prudent_a that_o be_v the_o study_v and_o learned_a man_n and_o reveal_v they_o to_o babe_n and_o that_o this_o be_v his_o good_a pleasure_n so_o to_o do_v and_o so_o no_o man_n can_v know_v christ_n and_o his_o gospel_n and_o what_o be_v the_o faith_n hope_n and_o love_n of_o the_o gospel_n but_o by_o the_o most_o present_a teach_v and_o revelation_n of_o god_n himself_o by_o his_o spirit_n wherefore_o to_o deny_v the_o inspiration_n of_o god_n spirit_n now_o and_o to_o ascribe_v all_o knowledge_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n to_o man_n study_n and_o to_o human_a learning_n be_v the_o most_o gross_a and_o palpable_a doctrine_n of_o antichrist_n and_o his_o prophet_n whereas_o all_o the_o people_n of_o god_n be_v teach_v of_o god_n himself_o in_o all_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n as_o christ_n have_v say_v because_o no_o man_n by_o his_o own_o study_n and_o pain_n can_v attain_v thereunto_o and_o in_o this_o matter_n i_o shall_v also_o add_v the_o testimony_n of_o luther_n and_o latimer_n luther_n say_v no_o man_n see_v one_o jot_n or_o tittle_n in_o the_o
