A86340	Glory sometimes afar off, now stepping in; or, The great gospel-mysterie of spirit, or Divine nature in saints: not in that philosophical and humane sense, by effects and habits of grace, but after a more evangelical, divine, and mysterious manner of in-being. Opened, affirmed and cleared, and gloriously breaking forth through a cloud of subtil pervertings, carnal objections, and dreadful condemnings cast upon it; and closed up with an account of some principles, practises and wayes which have sealed up this mysterie, and thereby held down the saints in weakness, and shut up the world in darkness for so long a time.

and_o resign_v it_o up_o to_o the_o divine_a nature_n that_o of_o himself_o he_o do_v nothing_o but_o the_o father_n do_v work_v all_o his_o work_n in_o he_o and_o by_o he_o the_o several_a act_n
