god_n free_o teach_v the_o youth_n who_o come_v willing_o to_o they_o to_o learn_v especial_o in_o the_o corrupt_a time_n of_o israel_n and_o judah_n i_o say_v they_o teach_v they_o only_o the_o

criticism_n yet_o speak_v it_o without_o the_o spirit_n they_o be_v false_a prophet_n before_o god_n and_o his_o true_a church_n see_v all_o right_a prophecy_n have_v proceed_v from_o the_o spirit_n in_o all_o age_n of_o the_o world_n but_o especial_o it_o must_v so_o proceed_v in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n wherein_o god_n have_v promise_v the_o large_a effusion_n of_o his_o spirit_n and_o they_o speak_v the_o word_n of_o the_o letter_n without_o the_o christ._n spirit_n do_v whole_o mistake_v the_o mind_n of_o christ_n in_o all_o and_o under_o the_o outward_a letter_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n do_v only_o bring_v in_o the_o mind_n of_o man._n and_o this_o be_v one_o of_o the_o great_a delusion_n and_o most_o mischievous_a snare_n that_o can_v be_v lay_v in_o the_o church_n to_o bring_v in_o the_o word_n of_o christ_n without_o the_o mind_n of_o christ_n yea_o to_o bring_v in_o the_o word_n of_o christ_n against_o the_o mind_n of_o christ_n and_o according_a to_o the_o mind_n of_o antichrist_n this_o be_v the_o effectual_a operation_n of_o error_n whereby_o all_o hypocrite_n and_o false_a christian_n be_v deceive_v and_o that_o without_o all_o hope_n of_o recovery_n and_o thus_o you_o see_v that_o the_o true_a prophet_n bring_v the_o true_a word_n and_o bring_v it_o also_o by_o the_o true_a spirit_n and_o this_o manifest_v they_o to_o be_v of_o god_n but_o the_o false_a either_o bring_v not_o the_o true_a word_n or_o if_o they_o bring_v the_o word_n in_o the_o letter_n yet_o they_o bring_v it_o without_o the_o spirit_n and_o thus_o it_o be_v manifest_a they_o be_v not_o of_o god_n object_n but_o some_o will_v object_v here_o if_o a_o man_n preach_v the_o objection_n word_n in_o the_o letter_n even_o good_a sound_a and_o orthodox_n doctrine_n preacher_n no_o doubt_n but_o such_o a_o man_n be_v to_o be_v hear_v and_o he_o may_v do_v much_o good_a in_o the_o church_n though_o he_o want_v christ_n spirit_n this_o i_o have_v hear_v from_o very_a many_o who_o have_v think_v they_o have_v say_v something_o answ._n but_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o they_o who_o want_v christ_n answer_n spirit_n which_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o prophecy_n though_o they_o preach_v the_o exact_a letter_n of_o the_o word_n yet_o be_v false_a prophet_n and_o not_o to_o be_v hear_v by_o the_o sheep_n 1._o because_o under_o the_o new_a testament_n we_o be_v not_o to_o regard_v 1._o the_o letter_n without_o the_o spirit_n but_o the_o spirit_n as_o well_o as_o the_o letter_n yea_o the_o spirit_n more_o than_o the_o letter_n and_o therefore_o paul_n say_v that_o christ_n shall_v destroy_v antichrist_n with_o the_o spirit_n of_o his_o mouth_n and_o the_o brightness_n of_o his_o come_v he_o scarce_o take_v any_o notice_n of_o the_o letter_n but_o call_v the_o true_a preach_v of_o the_o gospel_n the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n mouth_n or_o the_o ministration_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o therefore_o the_o spiritual_a people_n can_v join_v to_o that_o ministry_n where_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n be_v want_v though_o there_o be_v the_o outward_a letter_n of_o the_o word_n in_o it_o 2._o they_o that_o preach_v only_o the_o outward_a

outward_a thing_n to_o a_o outward_a word_n to_o outward_a worship_n outward_a ordinance_n outward_a church_n outward_a government_n etc._n etc._n whereas_o in_o the_o true_a kingdom_n of_o christ_n all_o thing_n be_v inward_a and_o spiritual_a and_o all_o the_o true_a religion_n of_o christ_n be_v write_v in_o the_o soul_n and_o spirit_n of_o man_n by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o the_o

without_o the_o spirit_n do_v as_o have_v be_v say_v whole_o mistake_v the_o mind_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o word_n for_o want_v of_o the_o spirit_n which_o be_v the_o only_a true_a and_o infallible_a

which_o in_o the_o spirit_n of_o it_o be_v the_o judgement_n of_o sin_n be_v make_v in_o the_o letter_n of_o it_o the_o cover_v for_o sin_n and_o the_o encourager_n of_o it_o see_v such_o man_n who_o have_v the_o letter_n of_o the_o word_n in_o their_o mouth_n do_v live_v in_o the_o inward_a corruption_n of_o their_o heart_n more_o secure_o and_o quiet_o than_o other_o men._n 5._o last_o of_o all_o let_v we_o know_v that_o whoever_o do_v agree_v 5._o with_o christ_n never_o so_o exact_o in_o the_o letter_n and_o yet_o differ_v from_o he_o in_o spirit_n be_v very_a antichrist_n and_o therefore_o when_o the_o devil_n in_o he_o that_o be_v possess_v say_v to_o christ_n we_o know_v thou_o who_o thou_o be_v the_o holy_a one_o of_o god_n and_o so_o agree_v very_o exact_o with_o the_o gospel_n in_o the_o letter_n yet_o christ_n forbid_v they_o to_o speak_v because_o they_o speak_v not_o by_o a_o right_a spirit_n and_o christ_n have_v say_v whoever_o be_v not_o with_o i_o that_o be_v in_o the_o spirit_n be_v against_o i_o though_o he_o have_v the_o same_o outward_a letter_n of_o the_o word_n with_o he_o and_o so_o as_o christ_n build_v up_o his_o church_n by_o his_o spirit_n through_o his_o word_n so_o antichrist_n build_v up_o his_o church_n by_o the_o word_n without_o the_o spirit_n and_o christ_n church_n and_o antichrist_n do_v often_o differ_v very_o little_a or_o nothing_o in_o word_n or_o letter_n yet_o do_v always_o infinite_o differ_v in_o spirit_n wherefore_o to_o conclude_v let_v we_o know_v that_o that_o church_n that_o have_v the_o word_n if_o it_o

i_o proceed_v to_o the_o second_o general_a rule_n of_o trial_n which_o i_o propound_v whereby_o we_o may_v discern_v the_o true_a prophet_n spirit_n of_o christ_n from_o the_o false_a prophet_n of_o
