so_o much_o as_o whosoever_o do_v swerve_v from_o he_o do_v renounce_v the_o mercy_n of_o the_o father_n that_o be_v our_o only_a refuge_n 14._o we_o believe_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o

contrary_a to_o that_o truth_n all_o those_o heresy_n wherewith_o the_o church_n be_v trouble_v in_o time_n past_a and_o namely_o we_o detest_v those_o devilish_a imagination_n of_o seruetus_fw-la who_o give_v to_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n a_o imaginary_a deity_n who_o he_o say_v to_o be_v the_o idea_n &_o pattern_n of_o all_o thing_n and_o the_o counterfeit_n or_o figurative_a son_n of_o

therefore_o we_o do_v so_o consider_v christ_n in_o his_o deity_n that_o we_o do_v not_o spoil_v he_o of_o his_o humanity_n 16._o we_o believe_v that_o god_n do_v declare_v his_o infinite_a love_n and_o goodness_n towards_o we_o in_o this_o that_o he_o have_v send_v his_o son_n who_o shall_v die_v and_o rise_v again_o and_o fulfil_v all_o righteousness_n that_o 17._o he_o may_v purchase_v

therefore_o we_o affirm_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v our_o entire_a and_o perfect_a wash_n in_o who_o death_n we_o obtain_v full_a satisfaction_n whereby_o we_o be_v deliver_v from_o all_o those_o

that_o christ_n have_v give_v majesty_n unto_o his_o body_n but_o yet_o have_v not_o take_v away_o from_o it_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o body_n and_o that_o we_o must_v not_o so_o affirm_v christ_n to_o

that_o place_n also_o we_o believe_v that_o christ_n shall_v come_v again_o to_o execute_v that_o general_a judgement_n as_o well_o of_o they_o who_o he_o shall_v find_v alive_a in_o the_o body_n as_o
