change_v from_o glory_n to_o glory_n as_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n so_o in_o the_o chain_n of_o salvation_n you_o have_v passive_a word_n in_o they_o all_o who_o god_n foreknow_v he_o

the_o spirit_n so_o back_o again_o all_o thing_n from_o we_o to_o god_n must_v come_v by_o the_o spirit_n and_o through_o christ_n we_o do_v all_o by_o the_o spirit_n as_o all_o thing_n be_v wrought_v in_o we_o by_o the_o spirit_n god_n give_v we_o the_o spirit_n of_o prayer_n and_o supplication_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o sanctification_n and_o we_o pray_v in_o the_o spirit_n and_o work_v in_o

of_o so_o glorious_a a_o head_n and_o so_o translate_v and_o transform_v we_o more_o and_o more_o from_o glory_n to_o glory_n it_o be_v a_o comfortable_a consideration_n to_o see_v how_o our_o

that_o all_o join_v in_o one_o for_o the_o make_n of_o man_n happy_a i_o will_v name_v two_o or_o three_o doctrine_n before_o i_o come_v to_o that_o which_o i_o mean_v to_o dwell_v on_o as_o first_o that_o the_o spirit_n come_v from_o christ._n doct._n it_o be_v say_v here_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o be_v of_o christ_n because_o christ_n do_v spirare_fw-la as_o well_o as_o

the_o comforter_n the_o holy_a ghost_n proceed_v from_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n and_o he_o do_v report_n to_o we_o the_o love_n of_o the_o father_n and_o of_o the_o son_n and_o therefore_o 2_o cor._n 13._o the_o shut_v up_o of_o the_o chapter_n the_o grace_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n the_o love_n of_o god_n the_o father_n and_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n etc._n

call_v here_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n then_o again_o the_o spirit_n be_v a_o distinct_a person_n from_o christ_n it_o be_v say_v before_o the_o lord_n be_v that_o spirit_n that_o may_v

the_o spirit_n be_v the_o author_n of_o all_o thing_n above_o nature_n grace_v whereby_o we_o be_v like_o christ_n it_o be_v above_o nature_n therefore_o it_o must_v be_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o
