god_n from_o all_o eternity_n and_o shall_v abide_v to_o all_o eternity_n a_o second_o demonstration_n of_o this_o truth_n may_v be_v this_o that_o the_o teach_n of_o christ_n in_o those_o that_o be_v true_o teach_v by_o he_o be_v to_o put_v off_o the_o old_a man_n which_o be_v corrupt_a according_a to_o the_o deceitful_a lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o to_o put_v on_o the_o new_a man_n which_o

21_o 22_o 23_o 24._o but_o you_o have_v not_o so_o learned_a christ_n if_o so_o be_v that_o you_o have_v hear_v he_o and_o have_v be_v teach_v by_o he_o as_o the_o truth_n be_v in_o jesus_n that_o you_o put_v off_o concern_v the_o former_a conversation_n the_o old_a man_n which_o be_v corrupt_a according_a to_o the_o deceitful_a lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o be_v renew_v in_o the_o spirit_n of_o your_o mind_n and_o that_o you_o put_v on_o the_o new_a man_n which_o after_o god_n be_v create_v in_o righteousness_n and_o true_a holiness_n by_o this_o scripture_n it_o appear_v that_o such_o

that_o the_o fruit_n be_v the_o image_n of_o god_n in_o righteousness_n and_o true_a holiness_n not_o a_o bare_a form_n all_o profess_a holiness_n but_o a_o true_a holiness_n that_o be_v holiness_n in_o truth_n which_o be_v in_o christ_n the_o truth_n itself_o so_o that_o the_o demonstration_n be_v full_a christ_n and_o the_o new_a creature_n always_o go_v together_o but_o as_o if_o the_o apostle_n have_v say_v there_o may_v be_v many_o formal_a carnal_a wretch_n that_o may_v profess_v christ_n and_o lie_v claim_v to_o he_o but_o this_o be_v a_o stand_a truth_n they_o have_v not_o be_v

i_o be_o they_o have_v not_o so_o learned_a christ_n his_o teach_n be_v spiritual_a and_o his_o renewing_n be_v in_o the_o mind_n which_o make_v the_o image_n of_o god_n in_o righteousness_n and_o true_a holiness_n in_o the_o conversation_n not_o only_o a_o naked_a profess_a holiness_n for_o if_o christ_n than_o the_o new_a creature_n a_o three_o demonstration_n may_v be_v this_o that_o god_n be_v light_n and_o in_o he_o be_v no_o darkness_n so_o that_o whoever_o have_v fellowship_n with_o god_n and_o christ_n walk_v in_o the_o light_n as_o god_n be_v light_a for_o proof_n of_o this_o take_v a_o scripture_n or_o two_o 1_o john_n 1.5_o 6._o this_o be_v the_o message_n which_o we_o have_v hear_v of_o he_o and_o declare_v unto_o you_o

thy_o own_o original_n for_o all_o sin_n and_o evil_n but_o god_n be_v only_o the_o original_n of_o all_o good_a now_o if_o thou_o exceed_v they_o in_o evil_n it_o will_v be_v no_o advantage_n to_o

the_o one_o nor_o envy_v the_o other_o but_o thou_o do_v it_o to_o god_n in_o both_o for_o the_o same_o wonder-working_a god_n which_o make_v thou_o to_o differ_v in_o excellency_n and_o glory_n from_o they_o make_v they_o also_o to_o differ_v from_o thou_o in_o the_o same_o what_o thou_o have_v thou_o have_v receive_v so_o have_v they_o when_o thou_o can_v make_v one_o of_o thy_o hair_n

this_o scripture_n to_o a_o proud_a spirit_n be_v like_o those_o word_n of_o our_o saviour_n to_o he_o that_o come_v to_o the_o marriage_n feast_n without_o a_o wedding_n garment_n friend_n say_v
