the_o truth_n be_v those_o be_v the_o great_a enemy_n of_o god_n and_o his_o truth_n that_o possible_a can_v be_v and_o the_o great_a deceiver_n in_o the_o world_n and_o a_o hypocrite_n be_v not_o

truth_n with_o their_o heart_n let_v but_o the_o author_n of_o that_o discourse_n look_v well_o about_o he_o or_o rather_o to_o within_o himself_o and_o he_o need_v not_o go_v far_o to_o find_v atheism_n and_o athest_n to_o purpose_n but_o where_o he_o be_v speak_v os_fw-la apostate_n i_o will_v have_v he_o to_o know_v that_o none_o can_v just_o be_v so_o call_v except_o they_o have_v be_v first_o make_v partaker_n of_o the_o truth_n and_o love_n of_o god_n and_o from_o that_o have_v turn_v away_o to_o love_v the_o world_n but_o man_n can_v be_v a_o apostate_n in_o turn_v from_o one_o

partaker_n of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o yet_o have_v turn_v therefrom_o and_o so_o become_v a_o apostate_n yet_o such_o a_o one_o must_v be_v save_v or_o else_o that_o author_n must_v raze_v out_o many_o scripture_n or_o else_o learn_v to_o understand_v they_o otherwise_o than_o they_o be_v understand_v among_o formalist_n for_o they_o say_v who_o god_n once_o love_v he_o love_v he_o to_o the_o end_n and_o if_o the_o author_n do_v not_o befool_v his_o own_o judgement_n and_o the_o judgement_n of_o his_o fellow_n he_o can_v gainsay_v it_o but_o that_o apostate_n must_v go_v to_o heaven_n but_o i_o believe_v the_o author_n must_v go_v to_o some_o other_o than_o himself_o and_o to_o other_o than_o those_o among_o who_o he_o have_v his_o fellowship_n to_o seek_v out_o apostate_n for_o i_o assure_v he_o he_o be_v none_o himself_o and_o i_o believe_v they_o be_v very_o scarce_o where_o he_o live_v i_o much_o doubt_n that_o neither_o himself_o nor_o his_o fellow-worshipper_n as_o yet_o have_v be_v true_a partaker_n of_o truth_n and_o then_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o he_o or_o they_o to_o fall_v from_o or_o turn_v from_o the_o thing_n they_o never_o have_v so_o i_o will_v clear_v both_o the_o author_n and_o his_o fellow_n of_o the_o sin_n of_o apostasy_n but_o what_o better_a be_v they_o that_o believe_v a_o lie_n in_o stead_n of_o truth_n than_o those_o who_o have_v know_v the_o truth_n and_o yet_o turn_v from_o it_o see_v the_o author_n have_v take_v pain_n to_o quote_v scripture_n and_o time_n to_o apply_v these_o scripture_n for_o the_o asperse_n of_o a_o people_n more_o simple_a than_o himself_o or_o any_o of_o his_o fellowship_n i_o will_v wish_v he_o to_o have_v a_o care_n that_o he_o be_v not_o like_o those_o that_o as_o yet_o have_v the_o beam_n in_o their_o eye_n whereby_o they_o be_v blind_v in_o behold_v of_o themselves_o and_o so_o can_v quick_o condemn_v other_o and_o yet_o justify_v themselves_o but_o i_o say_v happy_a be_v he_o that_o be_v not_o condemn_v in_o the_o thing_n he_o allow_v it_o be_v true_a the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o such_o deceiver_n as_o shall_v come_v and_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o apostle_n begin_v such_o deceiver_n to_o arise_v but_o after_o their_o death_n they_o much_o more_o increase_v till_o at_o last_o the_o truth_n itself_o be_v over-shaddow_v and_o in_o all_o generation_n since_o that_o
