that_o the_o poor_a confuse_a man_n run_v on_o so_o sensles_o and_o rave_v against_o it_o and_o yet_o have_v no_o ground_n or_o understanding_n in_o he_o at_o all_o so_o that_o i_o lament_v his_o

that_o he_o may_v become_v a_o paul_n see_v he_o be_v so_o zealous_a then_o may_v his_o zeal_n be_v profitable_a towards_o the_o further_a the_o salvation_n of_o man._n 8._o but_o so_o long_o as_o

i_o be_o as_o it_o be_v necessitate_v to_o wash_v the_o dirt_n from_o my_o sense_n and_o apprehension_n 14._o see_v he_o begin_v so_o artificial_o and_o drag_v the_o scripture_n by_o the_o hair_n of_o

in_o the_o allege_a term_n or_o text_n or_o no_o only_o that_o he_o may_v bring_v scripture_n and_o letter_n and_o exchange_v word_n with_o word_n and_o thereby_o cloak_n his_o erroneous_a meaning_n with_o such_o a_o semblance_n so_o he_o do_v but_o bring_v scripture_n for_o it_o and_o though_o many_o time_n in_o my_o write_n i_o handle_v not_o just_a that_o very_a matter_n that_o he_o will_v

will_v a_o little_a summary_o and_o brief_o answer_v he_o to_o his_o asperse_v objection_n not_o in_o that_o manner_n as_o to_o contend_v with_o he_o but_o for_o those_o to_o consider_v of_o that_o

and_o 2._o have_v not_o the_o faith_n 16._o for_o faith_n be_v not_o a_o historical_a conceit_n but_o a_o right_a life_n the_o spirit_n of_o god_n must_v be_v generate_v in_o the_o centre_n through_o

o_o dear_a sir_n and_o brethren_n take_v it_o into_o consideration_n and_o look_v upon_o the_o holy_a scripture_n right_o in_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n and_o then_o you_o will_v find_v that_o a_o

assume_v the_o whole_a humanity_n from_o we_o on_o to_o his_o heavenly_a but_o only_o not_o the_o beastial_a property_n and_o sin_n but_o he_o have_v receive_v or_o assume_v the_o 2._o sin_n of_o the_o world_n on_o to_o himself_o as_o a_o own_o self-guilty_a person_n and_o slay_v the_o death_n in_o our_o souland_n flesh_n else_o there_o be_v no_o remedy_n for_o man_n therefore_o must_v only_o
