well_o but_o that_o in_o some_o of_o my_o write_n i_o have_v say_v somewhat_o of_o the_o existence_n of_o christ_n the_o heavenly_a man_n before_o he_o assume_v flesh_n in_o the_o womb_n of_o the_o

heavenly_a the_o other_o earthly_a and_o corporeal_a unless_o by_o such_o a_o method_n of_o argue_v he_o will_v infer_v from_o the_o scripture_n itself_o that_o every_o man_n be_v two_o man_n as_o consist_v of_o a_o twofold_a humanity_n because_o paul_n after_o a_o mystical-way_n familiar_a to_o the_o jew_n write_v of_o a_o inward_a and_o outward_a man._n and_o perhaps_o by_o such_o manner_n of_o argue_v one_o give_v to_o quibble_n of_o argue_v may_v study_v to_o prove_v out_o of_o scripture_n that_o many_o man_n have_v four_o humanity_n for_o beside_o that_o the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o our_o inward_a and_o outward_a man_n which_o be_v soul_n and_o body_n it_o speak_v also_o of_o the_o old_a man_n which_o we_o be_v bid_v put_v off_o and_o the_o new_a man_n which_o we_o be_v to_o

before_o he_o assume_v flesh_n it_o be_v not_o enough_o with_o bare_a word_n to_o blame_v i_o for_o error_n without_o solid_a argument_n but_o let_v they_o produce_v solid_a argument_n if_o they_o

in_o that_o case_n that_o i_o believe_v that_o christ_n the_o mediator_n do_v exist_v before_o he_o take_v flesh_n although_o not_o in_o whole_a yet_o in_o some_o part_n and_o respect_n even_o from_o
