be_v to_o humble_v ourselves_o and_o not_o as_o g._n f._n do_v exalt_v himself_o and_o his_o false_a spirit_n under_o the_o notion_n of_o the_o same_o spirit_n that_o christ_n have_v but_o the_o

etc._n p._n 6._o and_o all_o this_o not_o in_o denial_n but_o in_o confirmation_n of_o his_o claim_v equality_n with_o god_n but_o this_o text_n do_v set_v out_o the_o great_a condesension_n of_o our_o dear_a lord_n jesus_n how_o he_o become_v one_o with_o we_o and_o not_o to_o exalt_v any_o to_o equality_n with_o god_n but_o to_o the_o contrary_a as_o say_v the_o apostle_n we_o see_v jesus_n
