and_o none_o such_o have_v ever_o yet_o come_v to_o my_o hand_n but_o upon_o my_o sober_a perusal_n of_o the_o matter_n i_o find_v this_o to_o be_v the_o upshot_n that_o the_o quaker_n deny_v they_o to_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n therefore_o they_o deny_v they_o altogether_o whence_o i_o take_v good_a heart_n to_o show_v his_o ignorance_n or_o great_a dishonesty_n §_o 3._o i_o will_v allow_v to_o he_o without_o go_v any_o far_a that_o the_o people_n call_v quaker_n do_v deny_v the_o scripture_n to_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o shall_v take_v for_o grant_v what_o he_o

i_o do_v declare_v to_o the_o whole_a world_n that_o we_o believe_v the_o scripture_n to_o contain_v a_o declaration_n of_o the_o mind_n and_o will_n of_o god_n in_o and_o to_o those_o age_n in_o

upon_o the_o spirit_n of_o people_n by_o the_o secret_a power_n of_o god_n which_o often_o strike_v and_o press_v home_o to_o the_o very_a conscience_n the_o weighty_a truth_n declare_v therein_o yet_o we_o do_v deny_v they_o to_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n ascribe_v that_o alone_a to_o christ_n himself_o and_o that_o not_o without_o scripture_n and_o reason_n §_o 5._o first_o it_o be_v

another_o and_o that_o christ_n be_v the_o great_a word_n of_o god_n that_o in_o all_o age_n have_v convey_v or_o speak_v the_o mind_n of_o god_n unto_o mankind_n and_o so_o the_o author_n of_o all_o

of_o many_o and_o that_o the_o ten_o word_n be_v not_o ten_o numerical_a word_n because_o each_o word_n contain_v many_o yet_o this_o i_o will_v say_v that_o word_n in_o scripture_n be_v take_v for_o commandment_n and_o they_o have_v a_o equivalent_a signification_n as_o in_o deuteronomy_n may_v be_v see_v and_o since_o that_o be_v the_o import_n of_o the_o ten_o word_n to_o wit_v ten_o commandment_n each_o word_n have_v its_o own_o commandment_n therefore_o it_o be_v no_o more_o against_o we_o to_o allow_v those_o ten_o word_n to_o be_v more_o than_o ten_o word_n than_o ten_o commandment_n to_o have_v more_o than_o ten_o word_n and_o whatever_o our_o adversary_n may_v say_v or_o think_v of_o we_o we_o therefore_o decline_v to_o call_v the_o scripture_n the_o word_n of_o god_n because_o we_o believe_v it_o to_o be_v a_o title_n only_o due_a to_o that_o live_n quicken_a word_n by_o which_o god_n vouchsafe_v to_o disclose_v his_o mind_n and_o will_n unto_o mankind_n christ_n the_o way_n to_o the_o father_n §_o 6._o but_o say_v our_o adversary_n to_o this_o argument_n the_o word_n be_v god_n therefore_o the_o scripture_n can_v be_v the_o word_n because_o they_o be_v not_o god_n let_v i_o tell_v you_o that_o the_o scripture_n 27._o may_v be_v the_o word_n and_o christ_n the_o word_n also_o and_o yet_o though_o christ_n be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n the_o
