put_v we_o in_o mind_n of_o a_o great_a debt_n of_o duty_n to_o god_n who_o have_v we_o as_o his_o clay_n in_o his_o hand_n when_o he_o may_v have_v make_v we_o beast_n or_o fowl_n and_o fish_n worm_n or_o fly_n he_o choose_v rather_o to_o make_v we_o man_n to_o give_v we_o the_o use_n of_o reason_n discourse_n and_o speech_n which_o though_o it_o be_v a_o gift_n common_a to_o we_o with_o the_o

but_o he_o can_v teach_v we_o to_o call_v god_n father_n in_o this_o sense_n and_o that_o be_v by_o right_a of_o adoption_n for_o when_o we_o have_v lose_v the_o favour_n of_o god_n be_v dead_a in_o

rebel_n angel_n that_o keep_v not_o their_o first_o estate_n but_o forsake_v their_o habitation_n then_o it_o please_v god_n to_o send_v his_o son_n first_o in_o promise_n then_o in_o type_n &_o

may_v be_v call_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o enfeoff_v in_o all_o the_o liberty_n of_o god_n elect_v child_n so_o the_o apostle_n 8.15_o we_o have_v receive_v the_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n whereby_o we_o cry_v abba_n that_o be_v father_n this_o be_v the_o interest_n of_o all_o the_o faithful_a in_o god_n and_o none_o but_o the_o elect_a do_v call_v he_o by_o that_o name_n by_o a_o

show_v that_o we_o go_v to_o he_o in_o our_o prayer_n the_o right_a way_n which_o be_v by_o jesus_n christ_n for_o there_o be_v no_o other_o way_n to_o the_o father_n one_o mediator_n between_o god_n and_o man_n the_o man_n jesus_n christ_n for_o in_o this_o last_o kind_n of_o gracious_a paternity_n god_n be_v only_o a_o father_n to_o we_o in_o christ_n and_o for_o his_o sake_n and_o to_o show_v our_o faith_n in_o god_n ground_v upon_o the_o sufficient_a merit_n of_o jesus_n christ_n we_o seek_v the_o face_n of_o god_n under_o that_o title_n which_o our_o jesus_n have_v buy_v with_o his_o blood_n which_o be_v call_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o everlasting_a covenant_n so_o that_o the_o name_n of_o father_n give_v to_o god_n in_o this_o prayer_n do_v teach_v we_o that_o all_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o church_n must_v be_v offer_v up_o to_o god_n in_o the_o mediation_n of_o jesus_n christ_n for_o we_o call_v not_o god_fw-we father_n by_o angel_n or_o saint_n but_o by_o christ_n only_o therefore_o we_o must_v seek_v this_o father_n only_o in_o and_o by_o jesus_n christ_n he_o himself_o have_v teach_v we_o this_o for_o he_o say_v whatsoever_o you_o shall_v ask_v the_o father_n in_o my_o name_n it_o shall_v be_v give_v you_o the_o renegado_n of_o spalleto_n in_o his_o last_o manifesto_n do_v muster_v up_o heap_n of_o proof_n to_o maintain_v invocation_n of_o angel_n and_o saint_n against_o the_o truth_n against_o his_o own_o former_a avouchment_n of_o the_o contrary_a against_o his_o own_o conscience_n if_o he_o have_v any_o leave_v after_o his_o apostasy_n he_o labour_v to_o prove_v that_o angel_n and_o saint_n depart_v do_v continual_o pray_v for_o we_o we_o deny_v it_o not_o we_o know_v that_o there_o be_v a_o communion_n of_o charity_n in_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o the_o church_n and_o doubt_v not_o of_o their_o perfect_a charity_n who_o be_v release_v hence_o
and_o be_v with_o god_n towards_o that_o part_n of_o the_o church_n which_o be_v militant_a here_o on_o earth_n and_o we_o give_v god_n thanks_n for_o they_o and_o their_o glory_n but_o we_o have_v no_o warrant_n to_o resort_v to_o they_o for_o their_o intercession_n but_o have_v a_o open_a way_n to_o the_o perfect_a and_o full_a al-sufficient_a mediator_n jesus_n christ_n who_o sit_v at_o the_o

idolatrous_a invocation_n i_o will_v examine_v some_o few_o of_o his_o quotation_n out_o of_o the_o father_n that_o you_o may_v taste_v he_o in_o a_o little_a for_o he_o that_o have_v deal_v double_o with_o god_n and_o unfaithful_o with_o the_o faith_n itself_o what_o hope_n can_v we_o have_v of_o he_o that_o he_o same_o he_o be_v now_o in_o the_o clear_a light_n where_o he_o may_v behold_v the_o truth_n will_v therefore_o pray_v to_o god_n for_o such_o as_o sit_v yet_o here_o below_o amidst_o many_o cloud_n of_o darkness_n but_o that_o he_o mean_v not_o to_o make_v cyprian_a a_o mediator_n
