believe_v that_o such_o a_o way_n lead_v to_o god_n kingdom_n that_o that_o way_n will_v lead_v man_n to_o god_n that_o will_v not_o lead_v they_o to_o holiness_n the_o scripture_n say_v if_o i_o

unacceptable_a to_o god_n they_o be_v all_o turn_v back_o again_o upon_o he_o and_o cast_v as_o dung_n upon_o his_o face_n and_o true_a enough_o too_o so_o that_o here_o be_v no_o come_n unto_o god_n in_o this_o way_n the_o comer_n thereunto_o know_v well_o enough_o they_o be_v not_o reconcile_v to_o god_n if_o they_o be_v man_n that_o be_v conscientious_a there_o be_v a_o sort_n of_o people_n so_o stupid_a and_o sordid_a in_o their_o judgement_n that_o if_o a_o man_n tell_v they_o they_o be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n they_o will_v believe_v he_o though_o conscience_n reprove_v they_o a_o

for_o nothing_o i_o speak_v not_o of_o such_o sordid_a hard-hearted_a people_n that_o never_o enter_v into_o themselves_o to_o know_v how_o it_o be_v with_o they_o whether_o they_o be_v convert_v

the_o sin_n of_o believer_n all_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n after_o we_o be_v believer_n be_v pardon_v forgive_v and_o do_v away_o by_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n upon_o the_o cross_n we_o will_v have_v it_o if_o we_o can_v get_v it_o if_o man_n can_v imagine_v to_o find_v a_o way_n into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n they_o will_v have_v one_o they_o believe_v that_o a_o man_n may_v sin_v and_o contract_v no_o gild_n and_o that_o he_o may_v sin_v till_o his_o die_a day_n and_o then_o all_o sin_n shall_v pass_v away_o and_o he_o shall_v enter_v into_o god_n kingdom_n the_o papist_n say_v none_o can_v come_v to_o heaven_n till_o they_o be_v purge_v from_o sin_n and_o they_o say_v god_n have_v appoint_v a_o place_n for_o that_o purpose_n and_o person_n must_v go_v into_o purgatory_n and_o they_o must_v lie_v there_o till_o they_o be_v put_v and_o purify_v and_o fit_v for_o heaven_n now_o say_v the_o protestant_n true_o there_o be_v nâ—_n such_o thing_n we_o find_v no_o such_o thing_n mention_v in_o the_o scripture_n therefore_o such_o a_o thing_n as_o this_o can_v be_v for_o the_o apostle_n say_v we_o have_v declare_v to_o you_o the_o whole_a counsel_n of_o god_n and_o he_o speak_v not_o a_o word_n of_o purgatory_n in_o all_o the_o new_a testament_n the_o protestant_n they_o have_v get_v a_o way_n to_o help_v themselves_o and_o the_o papist_n to_o help_v themselves_o and_o both_o lie_n under_o danger_n as_o for_o the_o papist_n if_o their_o priest_n mistake_v and_o there_o be_v no_o such_o place_n as_o purgaâ—â—â—â—_n than_o they_o mâ—â—â—_n be_v bring_v back_o to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o sâ—â—â—â—â—â—res_n which_o declare_v that_o as_o death_n leave_v we_o so_o judgement_n shall_v find_v we_o and_o as_o we_o sow_v so_o we_o must_v reap_v if_o we_o sow_v to_o the_o â—â—â—sh_n then_o of_o the_o flesh_n we_o shall_v reap_v corruption_n then_o the_o protestant_n likewise_o if_o they_o mistake_v in_o say_v a_o man_n may_v act_v sin_n and_o yet_o contract_v no_o gild_n than_o they_o must_v be_v bring_v back_o to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o scripture_n that_o tell_v we_o the_o soul_n that_o sin_v must_v die_v if_o a_o righteous_a man_n forsake_v his_o righteousness_n and_o do_v that_o which_o be_v evil_a his_o righteousness_n shall_v be_v remember_v no_o more_o but_o in_o the_o sin_n that_o he_o have_v commit_v he_o shall_v die_v this_o be_v sound_a doctrine_n i_o have_v rather_o trust_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n than_o the_o doctrine_n of_o they_o all_o either_o protestant_n or_o papist_n and_o have_v rather_o depend_v upon_o their_o doctrine_n for_o salvation_n that_o be_v inspire_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n than_o upon_o those_o doctor_n that_o say_v there_o be_v no_o inspiration_n nowadays_o some_o conceive_v this_o scripture_n may_v be_v interpret_v thus_o and_o thus_o and_o other_o conceive_v it_o mean_v so_o and_o so_o but_o we_o must_v say_v they_o submit_v to_o better_a judgement_n i_o be_o a_o fallible_a man_n i_o submit_v it_o to_o better_a judgement_n now_o when_o people_n be_v concern_v for_o immortality_n and_o eternity_n to_o have_v such_o thing_n dish_v out_o in_o such_o a_o manner_n what_o soul_n be_v so_o dull_a but_o they_o will_v bestir_v themselves_o and_o consider_v and_o look_v about_o they_o before_o they_o go_v hence_o how_o it_o shall_v go_v
