that_o nothing_o be_v more_o excellent_a than_o man_n but_o even_o in_o god_n himself_o moreover_o the_o most_o true_a scripture_n do_v teach_v we_o that_o god_n be_v of_o his_o own_o inclination_n natural_o good_a gentle_a &_o as_o paul_n call_v he_o philanthropon_n a_o lover_n of_o we_o man_n who_o have_v send_v his_o own_o son_n of_o his_o own_o nature_n into_o the_o world_n for_o our_o

in_o this_o doctrine_n of_o grace_n paul_n therefore_o say_v all_o have_v sin_v &_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n but_o be_v justify_v free_o by_o his_o grace_n through_o the_o
