bournes_n argument_n but_o i_o do_v prove_v the_o contrary_a by_o this_o argument_n no_o man_n whosoever_o be_v darkness_n be_v bind_v to_o look_v to_o the_o light_n within_o he_o as_o sufficient_a to_o direct_v he_o to_o attain_v salvation_n but_o every_o natural_a man_n be_v darkness_n therefore_o no_o natural_a man_n be_v bind_v to_o look_v to_o the_o light_n within_o he_o as_o sufficient_a for_o his_o direction_n to_o attain_v salvation_n and_o so_o not_o every_o man_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n the_o first_o proposition_n be_v evident_a because_o it_o be_v in_o vain_a to_o

sufficient_a light_n have_v any_o natural_a man_n in_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o all_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o look_v to_o the_o light_n within_o they_o as_o sufficient_a for_o their_o

to_o who_o paul_n be_v send_v to_o turn_v they_o from_o darkness_n to_o light_n and_o from_o the_o power_n of_o satan_n to_o god_n therefore_o some_o gentile_n have_v not_o a_o light_n within_o they_o to_o which_o they_o can_v look_v as_o sufficient_a to_o direct_v they_o to_o attain_v salvation_n and_o so_o not_o every_o man_n in_o the_o world_n the_o first_o proposition_n be_v manifest_a
