whence_o i_o gather_v that_o it_o be_v not_o strange_a so_o to_o accept_v and_o take_v they_o here_o hos_fw-la 53.4_o tit._n 1.16_o jer._n 9.3_o ch._n 31.34_o heb._n 8.11_o dan._n 11.32_o hos_fw-la

phrase_n be_v frequent_o restrain_v to_o a_o mere_a knowledge_n or_o notion_n of_o god_n and_o christ_n or_o for_o knowledge_n as_o distinct_a from_o love_n and_o acknowledgement_n yea_o sometime_o

in_o this_o say_n of_o christ_n love_n and_o acknowledgement_n be_v imply_v in_o knowledge_n *_o answ_n it_o plain_o appear_v that_o jesus_n christ_n here_o intend_v such_o a_o knowledge_n as_o imply_v in_o it_o love_n and_o acknowledgement_n if_o we_o consider_v only_o this_o that_o christ_n here_o declare_v this_o to_o be_v sufficient_a for_o obtain_v eternal_a life_n namely_o to_o know_v the_o father_n the_o only_a true_a god_n and_o jesus_n christ_n who_o he_o have_v send_v now_o it_o be_v in_o itself_o absurd_a to_o conceive_v that_o it_o be_v enough_o only_a to_o understand_v and_o notion_n the_o truth_n concern_v god_n and_o jesus_n christ_n *_o quest_n it_o be_v so_o but_o have_v you_o any_o thing_n more_o to_o say_v in_o confirm_v it_o *_o answ_n i_o shall_v add_v this_o that_o the_o scripture_n declare_v express_o that_o more_o than_o mere_o to_o know_v or_o only_o to_o understand_v god_n and_o jesus_n christ_n be_v necessary_a for_o obtain_v eternal_a life_n this_o
