8.1_o but_o after_o the_o spirit_n and_o this_o communion_n and_o fellowship_n that_o herein_o we_o have_v with_o christ_n for_o the_o discharge_n of_o we_o from_o the_o guilt_n of_o our_o natural_a corruption_n we_o know_v by_o two_o infallible_a token_n the_o one_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o sanctification_n which_o we_o have_v receive_v from_o he_o whereby_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o we_o walk_v not_o afr_o the_o flesh_n any_o more_o but_o after_o the_o spirit_n 11._o vers_fw-la 11._o for_o if_o the_o spirit_n of_o he_o that_o raise_v up_o jesus_n from_o the_o dead_a dwell_v in_o we_o he_o that_o raise_v up_o christ_n from_o the_o dead_a shall_v also_o quicken_v our_o mortal_a body_n by_o his_o spirit_n that_o dwell_v in_o we_o 13._o 13._o and_o therefore_o if_o we_o mortify_v the_o deed_n of_o the_o body_n by_o the_o spirit_n we_o shall_v live_v for_o as_o many_o as_o be_v lead_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n they_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o thus_o this_o sanctification_n of_o we_o which_o be_v in_o sincerity_n and_o truth_n though_o in_o much_o weakness_n and_o great_a imperfection_n proceed_v from_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v a_o sure_a token_n that_o we_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n to_o the_o perfect_a justify_n of_o we_o in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n and_o to_o the_o take_v away_o of_o all_o the_o remnant_n of_o sin_n inhere_v &_o dwell_v in_o we_o continual_o the_o second_o testimony_n hereof_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n which_o he_o give_v we_o to_o assure_v we_o of_o his_o favour_n and_o to_o deliver_v we_o from_o our_o fear_n in_o measure_n and_o to_o teach_v we_o cheerful_o and_o comfortable_o to_o pray_v unto_o god_n as_o to_o our_o most_o merciful_a father_n for_o he_o say_v that_o this_o spirit_n of_o sanctification_n 15._o vers_fw-la 15._o be_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o bondage_n to_o fear_v again_o which_o fear_n be_v wrought_v in_o we_o by_o the_o sight_n of_o our_o sin_n through_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o law_n but_o it_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n whereby_o we_o cry_v abba_n father_n that_o be_v it_o seal_v up_o our_o adoption_n in_o our_o mind_n and_o so_o open_v our_o mouth_n in_o prayer_n unto_o god_n and_o therefore_o he_o add_v that_o the_o same_o spirit_n bear_v witness_n with_o our_o spirit_n that_o we_o be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n and_o if_o we_o be_v child_n we_o be_v also_o heir_n even_o the_o heir_n of_o god_n and_o heir_n annex_v with_o christ_n thus_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n which_o be_v discern_v by_o this_o most_o excellent_a operation_n of_o he_o that_o it_o cause_v we_o to_o pray_v in_o hope_n to_o god_n as_o to_o our_o father_n and_o to_o call_v he_o not_o once_o father_n after_o a_o faint_a manner_n but_o twice_o or_o thrice_o yea_o continual_o abba_n father_n or_o father_n father_n we_o know_v that_o we_o have_v our_o part_n in_o christ_n for_o who_o sake_n only_o he_o be_v our_o father_n and_o so_o be_v by_o he_o deliver_v from_o the_o guiltiness_n of_o all_o the_o remnant_n of_o corruption_n &_o sin_n though_o they_o be_v in_o our_o flesh_n and_o dwell_v there_o continual_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v and_o do_v show_v themselves_o both_o by_o unbelief_n and_o by_o hinder_v we_o from_o do_v of_o that_o good_a that_o we_o will_v and_o cause_v we_o to_o do_v that_o evil_a that_o we_o will_v

unto_o which_o he_o show_v that_o of_o what_o nature_n or_o kind_n soever_o they_o be_v they_o shall_v be_v so_o far_o from_o hinder_v we_o from_o the_o favour_n of_o god_n &_o from_o our_o
