now_o consider_v if_o he_o have_v say_v that_o no_o man_n ascend_v into_o heaven_n but_o he_o that_o descend_v who_o be_v in_o heaven_n what_o will_v this_o last_o clause_n add_v to_o the_o rest_n no_o man_n can_v ascend_v up_o to_o heaven_n but_o then_o he_o must_v be_v in_o heaven_n no_o man_n can_v descend_v from_o heaven_n but_o then_o when_o he_o descend_v he_o must_v be_v there_o and_o

in_o the_o first_o sense_n i_o do_v wonder_n socinus_n and_o they_o do_v not_o apply_v it_o to_o our_o saviour_n be_v with_o god_n in_o contemplation_n even_o before_o john_n baptist_n his_o preach_n
