salvation_n and_o the_o sword_n of_o the_o spirit_n which_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n pray_v always_o with_o all_o prayer_n and_o supplication_n in_o the_o spirit_n and_o watch_v thereunto_o with_o all_o perseverance_n here_o now_o be_v the_o true_a christian_a weapon_n whereby_o he_o defend_v himself_o through_o the_o word_n and_o defend_v the_o word_n against_o all_o the_o world_n and_o the_o same_o paul_n in_o 2_o cor._n 10.3_o say_v for_o though_o we_o walk_v in_o the_o flesh_n we_o do_v not_o war_n after_o the_o flesh_n for_o the_o weapon_n of_o our_o warfare_n be_v not_o carnal_a but_o mighty_a through_o god_n to_o the_o pull_n down_o of_o strong_a hold_n cast_v down_o imagination_n and_o every_o high_a thing_n that_o exalt_v itself_o against_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n and_o bring_v into_o captivity_n every_o thought_n to_o the_o obedience_n of_o christ_n and_o have_v in_o a_o readiness_n to_o revenge_v all_o disobedience_n so_o that_o the_o faithful_a do_v not_o defend_v the_o gospel_n by_o philosophy_n as_o be_v heathenish_o suggest_v but_o by_o the_o gospel_n they_o defend_v the_o gospel_n and_o the_o gospel_n have_v in_o itself_o that_o wisdom_n righteousness_n

this_o doctrine_n to_o mr._n simpson_n and_o thus_o much_o for_o his_o outwork_n to_o the_o gospel_n now_o for_o his_o outer_a court_n to_o the_o gospel_n i_o know_v no_o other_o outer_a court_n the_o gospel_n ever_o have_v then_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n gospel_n which_o law_n be_v the_o preparation_n to_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o school_n master_n to_o bring_v we_o unto_o christ_n which_o human_a learning_n never_o be_v but_o human_a learning_n be_v the_o outer_a court_n to_o antichrist_n temple_n it_o be_v the_o schoolmaster_n to_o bring_v man_n to_o antichrist_n and_o thus_o will_v mr._n simpson_n also_o turn_v the_o law_n out_o of_o its_o place_n and_o set_v up_o human_a learning_n in_o the_o stead_n of_o the_o law_n and_o so_o will_v make_v void_a both_o law_n and_o gospel_n for_o human_a learning_n sake_n sure_o one_o will_v think_v he_o have_v some_o considerable_a advantage_n thereby_o that_o he_o thus_o fence_n for_o it_o 10._o error_n error_n but_o what_o be_v the_o

fountain_n of_o the_o ministry_n but_o this_o that_o some_o say_v they_o be_v one_o with_o christ_n and_o as_o christ_n have_v the_o divine_a nature_n in_o he_o so_o every_o believer_n also_o have_v and_o he_o that_o have_v god_n in_o he_o need_v not_o go_v to_o any_o man_n to_o learn_v whereas_o joh._n 17._o christ_n speak_v of_o believer_n as_o at_o a_o infinite_a distance_n from_o himself_o he_o their_o lord_n they_o his_o servant_n he_o in_o glory_n they_o in_o the_o world_n and_o if_o they_o be_v so_o unite_v to_o christ_n than_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o christ_n be_v not_o the_o

ignorance_n of_o answer_n and_o enmity_n to_o the_o gospel_n of_o god_n our_o saviour_n for_o be_v our_o union_n with_o christ_n the_o foundation_n of_o error_n or_o have_v true_a believer_n no_o real_a union_n with_o christ_n but_o imaginary_a do_v not_o the_o saint_n partake_v of_o the_o divine_a nature_n do_v not_o peter_n express_o affirm_v it_o 2_o pet._n 1.4_o where_o he_o say_v exceed_v

nature_n of_o god_n see_v luther_n on_o the_o place_n again_o be_v believer_n as_o he_o affirm_v at_o a_o infinite_a distance_n from_o christ_n if_o this_o be_v true_a what_o sad_a news_n will_v it_o be_v to_o the_o church_n of_o god_n how_o can_v this_o doctrine_n agree_v with_o these_o scripture_n that_o christ_n may_v dwell_v in_o your_o heart_n by_o faith_n and_o christ_n in_o you_o the_o hope_n of_o glory_n and_o of_o he_o be_v you_o in_o christ_n jesus_n again_o say_v christ_n i_o be_o the_o true_a vine_n and_o you_o be_v the_o branch_n and_o so_o as_o the_o vine_n be_v in_o the_o branch_n and_o as_o the_o branch_n be_v in_o the_o vine_n so_o be_v christ_n in_o christian_n and_o so_o be_v christian_n in_o christ_n again_o joh._n 14.20_o at_o that_o day_n you_o shall_v know_v say_v christ_n himself_o that_o you_o need_v not_o doubt_v of_o the_o doctrine_n that_o i_o be_o in_o my_o father_n and_o you_o in_o i_o and_o i_o in_o you_o and_o again_o joh._n 17.21_o say_v christ_n i_o pray_v not_o for_o these_o alone_a that_o be_v who_o now_o believe_v but_o also_o for_o all_o that_o shall_v hereafter_o believe_v in_o i_o through_o their_o word_n that_o they_o all_o may_v be_v one_o as_o thou_o father_n be_v in_o i_o and_o i_o in_o thou_o that_o they_o may_v be_v one_o as_o we_o be_v one_o i_o in_o they_o and_o thou_o in_o i_o that_o they_o may_v be_v make_v

christ_n and_o believer_n but_o a_o wonderful_a and_o admirable_a nearness_n and_o oneness_n which_o the_o learned_a ignorance_n of_o philosophy_n understand_v not_o nor_o the_o ignorant_a knowledge_n of_o any_o carnal_a christian_a but_o sure_o this_o word_n of_o god_n be_v true_a and_o the_o saint_n receive_v it_o in_o faith_n and_o will_v not_o be_v delude_v with_o any_o philosophical_a sophistical_a or_o antichristian_a gloss_n of_o false_a teacher_n and_o thus_o do_v the_o holy_a word_n of_o god_n affirm_v plain_o enough_o that_o christ_n and_o his_o christian_n be_v most_o near_o unite_v and_o yet_o do_v not_o this_o union_n make_v a_o equality_n and_o rob_v christ_n of_o his_o due_a glory_n see_v christ_n be_v the_o head_n and_o they_o his_o member_n christ_n the_o first_o bear_v and_o they_o his_o brethren_n and_o so_o as_o christ_n have_v the_o pre-eminence_n in_o all_o thing_n above_o they_o all_o as_o become_v the_o head_n and_o first_o bear_v so_o they_o have_v communion_n with_o he_o in_o all_o thing_n as_o become_v his_o member_n and_o brethren_n and_o whereas_o he_o jest_v and_o say_v he_o that_o have_v god_n in_o he_o need_v not_o go_v to_o man_n to_o learn_v i_o do_v affirm_v this_o be_v true_a enough_o and_o the_o scripture_n have_v affirm_v it_o in_o several_a place_n isaiah_n say_v to_o the_o spiritual_a church_n all_o thy_o child_n shall_v be_v teach_v of_o the_o lord_n and_o christ_n say_v it_o be_v write_v they_o shall_v be_v all_o teach_v of_o god_n he_o therefore_o that_o have_v hear_v and_o learn_v of_o my_o father_n come_v to_o
