to_o this_o and_o that_o service_n and_o conformity_n upon_o the_o account_n of_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n this_o be_v vain_a worship_n when_o they_o have_v do_v all_o it_o be_v not_o acceptable_a to_o god_n the_o poor_a creature_n have_v no_o return_n from_o the_o lord_n for_o god_n accept_v no_o service_n or_o worship_n but_o only_o through_o his_o son_n and_o if_o so_o be_v man_n can_v

doctrine_n of_o christendom_n that_o christ_n
jesus_n be_v appoint_v of_o god_n for_o a_o mediator_n between_o god_n and_o man_n and_o all_o the_o acceptance_n we_o have_v or_o desire_v to_o have_v must_v be_v through_o he_o and_o therefore_o if_o we_o pray_v without_o he_o and_o perform_v this_o and_o the_o other_o duty_n without_o he_o it_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christianity_n to_o think_v that_o ever_o we_o shall_v have_v acceptance_n in_o god_n sight_n therefore_o there_o be_v a_o necessity_n for_o every_o man_n and_o woman_n that_o desire_v to_o be_v religious_a that_o have_v a_o religious_a mind_n and_o be_v

the_o father_n they_o that_o go_v any_o other_o way_n go_v a_o wrong_a way_n but_o they_o that_o go_v unto_o god_n by_o christ_n they_o do_v receive_v from_o he_o power_n to_o draw_v near_o to_o god_n and_o through_o he_o they_o receive_v from_o god_n all_o those_o blessing_n that_o their_o soul_n stand_v in_o need_n of_o so_o here_o will_v be_v a_o end_n of_o all_o religion_n the_o world_n be_v

of_o worship_n be_v that_o he_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n by_o who_o and_o through_o who_o he_o may_v expect_v favour_n with_o god_n now_o say_v some_o people_n we_o be_v already_o

must_v have_v another_o sort_n of_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n than_o we_o can_v have_v from_o the_o report_n of_o other_o if_o i_o must_v have_v christ_n reveal_v in_o i_o before_o i_o can_v have_v
