a_o believer_n by_o christ_n and_o christ_n himself_o dwell_v in_o a_o believer_n by_o his_o spirit_n for_o i_o take_v it_o through_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n dwell_v in_o a_o believer_n he_o be_v

philosophy_n whereby_o mr_n dell_n illustrate_v his_o divinity_n seem_v as_o strange_a to_o i_o as_o what_o he_o intend_v to_o explain_v by_o it_o for_o though_o the_o body_n have_v no_o habit_n of_o life_n in_o it_o apart_o from_o the_o soul_n yet_o i_o think_v it_o have_v a_o habit_n of_o life_n in_o it_o distinct_a from_o the_o soul_n even_o that_o habit_n of_o life_n which_o flow_v from_o the_o soul_n even_o as_o the_o habit_n of_o spiritual_a life_n flow_v from_o christ_n dwell_v as_o the_o fountain_n of_o this_o life_n in_o his_o believe_a people_n by_o his_o spirit_n b_o i_o take_v it_o that_o in_o these_o word_n those_o thing_n be_v make_v to_o clash_v which_o do_v sweet_o accord_v sc_n paul_n live_v a_o natural_a and_o personal_a life_n in_o his_o own_o soul_n and_o body_n and_o christ_n live_v in_o paul_n by_o his_o spirit_n as_o the_o fountain_n and_o as_o i_o may_v say_v the_o soul_n of_o a_o spiritual_a life_n i_o conceive_v that_o this_o position_n have_v no_o self_n contradiction_n in_o it_o christ_n by_o his_o spirit_n live_v in_o paul_n while_o paul_n live_v in_o his_o own_o soul_n and_o body_n a_o natural_a and_o personal_a life_n for_o notwithstanding_o mr_n dell_n confidence_n i_o take_v it_o it_o will_v hold_v for_o truth_n that_o when_o christ_n live_v in_o paul_n paul_n then_o live_v in_o his_o own_o soul_n and_o body_n that_o

as_o to_o the_o be_v of_o the_o new_a creature_n and_o do_v and_o suffer_v and_o overcome_v all_o in_o he_o d_o do_v not_o mr_n dell_n in_o these_o word_n too_o much_o divide_v the_o godhead_n from_o the_o manhood_n in_o our_o bless_a saviour_n whilst_o he_o make_v the_o eternal_a word_n and_o son_n of_o god_n in_o opposition_n to_o his_o flesh_n that_o christ_n which_o live_v in_o paul_n and_o live_v in_o believer_n i_o think_v it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o apostle_n speak_v not_o of_o christ_n under_o the_o notion_n of_o the_o eternal_a word_n alone_o but_o as_o the_o word_n make_v flesh_n when_o he_o write_v that_o christ_n live_v in_o he_o and_o that_o he_o live_v by_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n see_v he_o immediate_o add_v who_o love_v i_o and_o give_v himself_o for_o i_o for_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o it_o be_v christ_n flesh_n which_o he_o give_v for_o the_o life_n of_o the_o world_n john_n 6.57_o and_o though_o the_o flesh_n or_o humane_a body_n of_o our_o saviour_n in_o the_o capernait_v sense_n carnal_o partake_v of_o can_v profit_v nothing_o john_n 6.63_o yet_o our_o lord_n jesus_n as_o the_o word_n make_v flesh_n be_v the_o mediator_n

flesh_n be_v not_o to_o be_v put_v by_o in_o the_o matter_n of_o believer_n vivification_n through_o he_o as_o if_o it_o have_v no_o part_n or_o place_n in_o that_o work_n for_o the_o flesh_n or_o

bear_v of_o the_o virgin_n whereas_o christ_n true_o live_v in_o paul_n and_o life_n in_o all_o the_o faithful_a and_o his_o very_a life_n be_v to_o be_v see_v in_o they_o as_o the_o life_n of_o the_o

we_o may_v learn_v that_o christ_n in_o a_o believer_n be_v to_o he_o instead_o of_o all_o credted_a habit_n of_o grace_n christ_n who_o be_v the_o true_a god_n be_v all_o in_o all_o in_o a_o christian_a and_o so_o a_o christian_n partake_v of_o that_o righteousness_n which_o be_v christ_n of_o that_o wisdom_n which_o be_v christ_n of_o that_o power_n truth_n goodness_n etc._n etc._n which_o be_v christ_n and_o christ_n that_o dwell_v in_o believer_n be_v true_o all_o grace_n to_o they_o and_o herein_o they_o be_v like_a unto_o christ_n humanity_n unto_o who_o the_o fullness_n of_o the_o godhead_n that_o dwell_v in_o he_o be_v instead_o of_o all_o create_a grace_n wherefore_o let_v we_o know_v that_o the_o create_v habit_n of_o grace_n in_o a_o christian_a which_o the_o schoolman_n have_v invent_v and_o teach_v and_o other_o have_v receive_v from_o they_o be_v nothing_o but_o the_o empty_a notion_n and_o vain_a speculation_n of_o carnal_a and_o unbelieving_a heart_n ignorant_a of_o the_o true_a mystery_n of_o the_o gospel_n for_o christ_n that_o live_v in_o a_o believer_n be_v all_o grace_n to_o he_o and_o thus_o the_o apostle_n paul_n express_o teach_v in_o 1_o cor._n 1.30_o where_o speak_v of_o christ_n he_o say_v he_o be_v make_v unto_o we_o of_o god_n wisdom_n righteousness_n sanctification_n and_o redemption_n and_o so_o a_o christian_n have_v that_o wisdom_n righteousness_n etc._n etc._n which_o be_v christ_n himself_o and_o this_o grace_n which_o be_v christ_n himself_o be_v infinite_o more_o high_a and_o holy_a than_o all_o create_a habit_n of_o grace_n c_z and_o this_o be_v the_o only_a grace_n that_o be_v acceptable_a to_o god_n and_o that_o make_v we_o accept_v in_o itself_o d_o and_o this_o be_v the_o only_a grace_n against_o which_o the_o gate_n of_o hell_n can_v prevail_v and_o the_o only_a grace_n that_o can_v make_v we_o meet_v for_o the_o father_n kingdom_n and_o thus_o you_o see_v that_o christ_n that_o live_v in_o a_o believer_n be_v all_o grace_n in_o he_o and_o all-sufficient_a grace_n for_o he_o 3._o e_z if_o christ_n live_v in_o believer_n then_o certain_o whatever_o evil_n and_o tribulation_n and_o persecution_n be_v bring_v upon_o believer_n by_o the_o world_n and_o the_o false_a church_n for_o the_o word_n of_o faith_n they_o be_v bring_v upon_o christ_n himself_o and_o christ_n himself_o be_v still_o persecute_v in_o the_o flesh_n throughout_o all_o age_n and_o generation_n

life_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o a_o man_n be_v not_o confine_v to_o the_o head_n but_o disperse_v itself_o to_o all_o the_o member_n and_o be_v true_o manifest_a in_o they_o animadversion_n 16._o a_o

and_o give_v they_o new_a ground_n to_o build_v upon_o he_o shall_v do_v well_o to_o consider_v how_o far_o he_o be_v from_o say_v that_o believer_n live_v the_o life_n of_o christ_n and_o that_o they_o live_v immediate_o in_o god_n who_o say_v that_o christ_n live_v in_o believer_n as_o in_o his_o own_o flesh_n and_o that_o the_o life_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v communicate_v to_o

every_o member_n live_v immediate_o in_o the_o life_n of_o the_o soul_n if_o mr_n dell_n say_v that_o he_o dislike_v not_o the_o profession_n of_o the_o man_n he_o point_v at_o for_o affirm_v according_a to_o his_o own_o doctrine_n that_o they_o live_v the_o life_n of_o christ_n and_o that_o they_o live_v immediate_o in_o god_n but_o only_o for_o some_o high_a notion_n wherein_o they_o

this_o serious_o to_o his_o heart_n whether_o it_o can_v possible_o be_v say_v of_o any_o creature_n whatsoever_o in_o truth_n that_o it_o live_v immediate_o in_o god_n it_o be_v true_a that_o every_o
