which_o proceed_v from_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n may_v also_o be_v call_v a_o manifestation_n but_o we_o say_v the_o seed_n itself_o be_v also_o a_o manifestation_n and_o those_o inward_a heavenly_a

which_o be_v substance_n agree_v in_o this_o that_o they_o be_v manifestation_n and_o pledge_n of_o god_n bounty_n unto_o we_o so_o do_v he_o nourish_v our_o inward_a man_n with_o spiritual_a bread_n and_o drink_v not_o once_o only_o but_o often_o give_v we_o daily_o the_o supersubstantiall_a bread_n as_o the_o word_n in_o the_o prayer_n may_v be_v translate_v and_o have_v be_v by_o some_o

which_o shall_v clear_o answer_v any_o seem_a difficulty_n allege_v by_o they_o in_o this_o whole_a section_n as_o in_o relation_n to_o christ._n 1._o proposition_n the_o word_n or_o son_n of_o god_n have_v the_o whole_a entire_a nature_n of_o man_n spirit_z soul_n and_o body_n unite_v to_o he_o in_o the_o heaven_n and_o he_o be_v the_o same_o in_o substance_n what_o he_o be_v upon_o earth_n both_o in_o spirit_n soul_n and_o body_n 2._o christ_n in_o we_o or_o the_o seed_n be_v not_o a_o three_o spiritual_a nature_n distinct_a from_o that_o which_o be_v in_o the_o man_n christ_n jesus_n that_o be_v crucify_v according_a to_o the_o flesh_n at_o jerusalem_n for_o the_o same_o that_o be_v in_o we_o be_v and_o be_v in_o he_o and_o as_o it_o be_v in_o he_o it_o be_v the_o fullness_n or_o spring_n of_o the_o same_o in_o we_o as_o the_o stream_n nor_o be_v there_o any_o difference_n but_o such_o as_o be_v betwixt_o the_o spring_n and_o the_o stream_n which_o be_v one_o in_o their_o nature_n and_o substance_n 3._o we_o say_v that_o the_o same_o seed_n and_o life_n be_v in_o we_o which_o be_v in_o he_o and_o be_v in_o he_o in_o the_o fullness_n as_o water_n be_v in_o the_o

man_n christ_n therefore_o this_o seed_n be_v in_o we_o the_o man_n christ_n be_v in_o we_o not_o according_a to_o his_o whole_a manhood_n but_o according_a unto_o that_o which_o be_v proper_a unto_o it_o and_o yet_o without_o all_o division_n as_o the_o natural_a life_n be_v in_o all_o the_o member_n but_o more_o principal_o in_o the_o head_n and_o heart_n without_o any_o division_n so_o this_o spiritual_a life_n and_o nature_n be_v both_o in_o christ_n our_o head_n and_o in_o we_o by_o which_o he_o dwell_v in_o we_o as_o the_o spirit_n of_o man_n do_v in_o the_o body_n and_o we_o eat_v and_o partake_v of_o his_o flesh_n 4._o but_o if_o they_o argue_v that_o at_o least_o christ_n have_v three_o nature_n in_o himself_o we_o say_v their_o own_o principle_n will_v conclude_v that_o as_o much_o as_o we_o for_o the_o godhead_n be_v one_o nature_n the_o nature_n of_o the_o soul_n be_v a_o second_o and_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o body_n be_v the_o three_o and_o our_o adversary_n themselves_o teach_v that_o as_o god_n be_v three_o person_n in_o one_o nature_n so_o christ_n be_v three_o nature_n in_o one_o person_n 5._o although_o the_o word_n or_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d shall_v assume_v into_o union_n with_o itself_o not_o only_o two_o nature_n but_o three_o it_o shall_v not_o make_v either_o two_o or_o three_o chist_n but_o one_o for_o they_o grant_v that_o the_o word_n have_v assume_v two_o to_o wit_n the_o soul_n and_o body_n of_o the_o man_n christ_n and_o yet_o he_o be_v not_o two_o christ_n but_o one_o even_o as_o the_o king_n be_v but_o one_o king_n although_o he_o possess_v three_o kingdom_n for_o ad_fw-la multiplicationem_fw-la obliquorum_fw-la non_fw-la multiplicantur_fw-la concreta_fw-la as_o your_o logic_n teach_v 6._o the_o seed_n and_o

and_o spiritual_a body_n of_o christ_n in_o we_o be_v as_o real_o his_o suffering_n as_o these_o he_o accomplish_v at_o jerusalem_n 7._o this_o seed_n be_v not_o our_o soul_n but_o be_v a_o medium_n betwixt_o god_n and_o we_o and_o our_o union_n with_o god_n be_v but_o mediate_v through_o this_o whereas_o the_o union_n of_o god_n with_o this_o be_v immediate_a therefore_o none_o of_o we_o be_v either_o christ_n or_o god_n but_o god_n and_o christ_n be_v in_o we_o 8._o see_v this_o seed_n and_o spirivall_n nature_n of_o christ_n be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o both_o in_o he_o and_o in_o we_o it_o be_v most_o unreasonable_a to_o argue_v that_o there_o be_v as_o many_o christ_n as_o man_n as_o it_o be_v unreasonable_a to_o argue_v that_o because_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n be_v in_o all_o his_o member_n that_o therefore_o as_o many_o member_n as_o many_o soul_n the_o element_n of_o the_o air_n be_v but_o one_o only_a element_n although_o it_o fill_v the_o whole_a universe_n betwixt_o

real_a worth_n of_o the_o work_n and_o suffering_n of_o christ_n in_o we_o nor_o his_o present_a intercession_n for_o if_o christ_n his_o intercession_n without_o we_o in_o heaven_n do_v not_o

and_o yet_o without_o sin_n as_o his_o suffering_n at_o jerusalem_n be_v voluntary_a and_o without_o sin_n for_o as_o he_o join_v not_o with_o they_o who_o outward_o crucify_v he_o in_o any_o active_a
