cornerstone_n the_o foundation_n of_o the_o prophet_n apostle_n and_o we_o as_o be_v say_v in_o john_n and_o we_o be_v those_o who_o have_v obeythe_a command_n of_o christ_n who_o enlighten_v every_o man_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n that_o all_o through_o it_o may_v believe_v who_o say_v believe_v in_o the_o light_n this_o be_v his_o command_n that_o they_o may_v become_v child_n of_o the_o light_n john_n 12.36_o so_o we_o know_v that_o as_o many_o as_o receive_v he_o to_o wit_n christ_n the_o light_n that_o enlighten_v every_o one_o that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n to_o they_o give_v he_o power_n to_o become_v the_o son_n of_o god_n john_n 1.12_o and_o this_o we_o witness_v and_o can_v say_v behold_v what_o manner_n of_o love_n be_v this_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v call_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o heir_n of_o christ_n who_o make_v we_o sit_v together_o in_o the_o heavenly_a place_n in_o christ_n jesus_n who_o former_o be_v dead_a in_o sin_n and_o trespass_n eph._n 2._o and_o we_o have_v receive_v the_o unction_n from_o the_o holy_a one_o through_o which_o we_o come_v to_o know_v all_o thing_n the_o anoint_v which_o we_o have_v receive_v of_o he_o abide_v in_o

you_o you_o shall_v abide_v in_o he_o 1_o john_n 2.27_o it_o teach_v the_o saint_n in_o the_o apostle_n day_n and_o we_o in_o we_o therefore_o we_o must_v abide_v in_o he_o as_o they_o do_v to_o wit_n in_o jesus_n and_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n which_o shine_v in_o our_o heart_n which_o god_n have_v command_v to_o shine_v out_o of_o darkness_n do_v give_v we_o the_o light_n of_o the_o

and_o scandal_n you_o have_v cast_v upon_o we_o to_o wit_n our_o deny_v of_o god_n christ_n and_o the_o scripture_n etc._n etc._n they_o be_v all_o false_a for_o christ_n we_o know_v own_o and_o believe_v his_o incarnation_n passion_n death_n resurrection_n ascension_n and_o glorification_n and_o the_o scripture_n we_o own_v to_o be_v the_o scripture_n of_o truth_n and_o scripture_n signify_v

perfection_n here_o in_o this_o life_n to_o which_o we_o answer_v that_o there_o be_v a_o original_a of_o sin_n we_o deny_v not_o but_o your_o doctrine_n of_o original_a sin_n we_o do_v deny_v as_o you_o state_n it_o for_o do_v not_o original_a signify_v the_o beginning_n and_o the_o beginning_n of_o sin_n be_v it_o not_o the_o devil_n for_o we_o do_v affirm_v it_o be_v neither_o god_n nor_o christ_n and_o do_v not_o christ_n come_v to_o destroy_v the_o devil_n and_o his_o work_n and_o so_o destroy_v the_o original_a so_o we_o must_v tell_v you_o we_o hold_v christ_n and_o not_o the_o devil_n who_o be_v and_o be_v the_o original_a of_o sin_n and_o imperfection_n i_o say_v again_o christ_n who_o be_v before_o the_o devil_n be_v who_o be_v glorify_v with_o the_o father_n before_o the_o world_n begin_v who_o bruise_n the_o serpent_n head_n and_o the_o head_n of_o all_o deceiver_n liar_n and_o slanderer_n and_o false_a prophet_n and_o anti-christs_n and_o in_o he_o we_o be_v to_o wit_n christ_n jesus_n who_o be_v our_o salvation_n mediator_n and_o redeemer_n and_o as_o for_o your_o accuse_v we_o for_o hold_v perfection_n answ_n what_o must_v we_o not_o hold_v god_n who_o be_v perfect_a and_o must_v we_o not_o hold_v christ_n who_o be_v perfect_a and_o his_o work_n and_o worship_n which_o be_v perfect_a and_o his_o religion_n which_o be_v perfect_a that_o come_v from_o himself_o and_o the_o gift_n of_o his_o spirit_n and_o grace_n and_o faith_n which_o be_v perfect_a be_v not_o all_o his_o gift_n perfect_a and_o must_v we_o not_o receive_v they_o in_o this_o life_n yea_o must_v not_o our_o body_n be_v the_o temple_n of_o god_n and_o of_o christ_n and_o of_o his_o holy_a ghost_n and_o then_o must_v we_o not_o hold_v they_o who_o be_v perfect_a and_o own_o perfection_n and_o be_v not_o the_o command_n of_o christ_n to_o we_o to_o be_v perfect_a as_o our_o heavenly_a father_n be_v perfect_a and_o be_v it_o ever_o the_o work_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n to_o preach_v up_o imperfection_n for_o term_n of_o life_n but_o always_o both_o the_o prophet_n christ_n and_o the_o apostle_n press_v and_o press_v we_o to_o perfection_n and_o what_o do_v they_o press_v we_o to_o that_o which_o be_v impossible_a to_o be_v attain_v unto_o what_o will_v you_o say_v that_o their_o word_n be_v of_o no_o value_n what_o will_v you_o liken_v christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n word_n unto_o for_o be_v there_o any_o that_o ever_o deny_v the_o doctrine_n of_o perfection_n save_v only_a presbyterian_o independent_n and_o baptist_n and_o you_o who_o have_v get_v the_o form_n of_o godliness_n but_o deny_v the_o power_n thereof_o which_o bring_v out_o of_o imperfection_n to_o the_o perfect_a head_n christ_n jesus_n who_o be_v the_o way_n to_o god_n and_o therefore_o you_o do_v not_o only_o deny_v the_o perfect_a power_n but_o also_o be_v short_a of_o have_v the_o form_n of_o godliness_n and_o will_v not_o christ_n present_v his_o church_n perfect_a that_o be_v without_o spot_n or_o wrinkle_n unto_o god_n the_o father_n who_o be_v the_o pure_a head_n of_o it_o and_o how_o will_v you_o present_v your_o church_n to_o god_n what_o will_v you_o present_v it_o to_o god_n with_o a_o body_n of_o death_n and_o a_o body_n of_o sin_n do_v not_o you_o deny_v circumcision_n in_o this_o namely_o the_o circumcision_n of_o the_o spirit_n that_o be_v make_v without_o hand_n by_o put_v off_o the_o body_n of_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o flesh_n by_o the_o circumcision_n of_o christ_n and_o do_v not_o you_o deny_v christ_n baptism_n who_o come_v with_o his_o fan_n in_o his_o hand_n to_o purge_v his_o floor_n thorough_o who_o we_o see_v be_v come_v and_o do_v increase_v and_o do_v see_v the_o decrease_n of_o john_n i_o say_v he_o be_v come_v with_o his_o fan_n in_o his_o hand_n who_o will_v thorough_o purge_v his_o floor_n and_o burn_v up_o the_o chaff_n with_o unquenchable_a fire_n and_o gather_v his_o wheat_n into_o his_o garner_n a_o safe_a

deny_v and_o his_o minister_n and_o messenger_n and_o then_o he_o fill_v they_o with_o chaff_n for_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v to_o the_o church_n by_o one_o spirit_n we_o be_v all_o baptise_a into_o one_o body_n whether_o we_o be_v jew_n or_o gentile_n bond_n or_o free_n he_o do_v not_o say_v that_o by_o water_n we_o be_v all_o baptise_a into_o one_o body_n for_o we_o see_v many_o body_n baptize_v with_o elementary_a water_n and_o yet_o do_v destroy_v one_o another_o now_o mark_v the_o word_n we_o be_v all_o baptise_a into_o one_o body_n that_o be_v the_o church_n of_o the_o first-born_a and_o christ_n be_v the_o head_n of_o this_o body_n 1_o cor._n 12.13_o so_o this_o be_v the_o one_o baptism_n speak_v of_o ephes_n 4.4_o 5._o there_o be_v one_o body_n and_o one_o spirit_n even_o as_o you_o be_v call_v into_o one_o hope_n of_o your_o call_v one_o lord_n one_o faith_n one_o baptism_n one_o god_n and_o father_n of_o all_o who_o be_v above_o all_o and_o through_o
