as_o they_o be_v at_o this_o day_n but_o i_o proceed_v to_o the_o word_n themselves_o in_o treat_v of_o which_o i_o propose_v this_o method_n to_o explain_v the_o duty_n which_o the_o apostle_n here_o urge_v upon_o the_o ephesian_n show_v what_o it_o be_v to_o keep_v the_o unity_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o the_o bondof_n peace_n to_o consider_v the_o obligation_n which_o all_o christian_n be_v under_o to_o the_o practice_n of_o this_o duty_n to_o show_v how_o we_o may_v best_o attain_v to_o the_o practice_n of_o it_o to_o explain_v the_o duty_n itself_o show_v what_o it_o be_v to_o keep_v the_o unity_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o the_o bond_n of_o peace_n by_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o spirit_n i_o conceive_v the_o apostle_n here_o mean_v such_o a_o unity_n as_o proper_o belong_v to_o a_o body_n which_o be_v inspire_v in_o the_o whole_a and_o every_o part_n of_o it_o by_o one_o and_o the_o same_o spirit_n i_o know_v that_o some_o will_v have_v this_o phrase_n to_o signify_v no_o more_o than_o a_o union_n of_o the_o spirit_n or_o mind_n of_o christian_n this_o be_v indeed_o contain_v in_o it_o but_o it_o be_v by_o no_o mean_n the_o full_a sense_n of_o the_o expression_n the_o union_n which_o be_v between_o christian_n be_v principal_o and_o in_o the_o first_o place_n in_o their_o mind_n or_o spirit_n but_o i_o take_v the_o word_n spirit_n here_o to_o relate_v to_o the_o divine_a spirit_n which_o as_o the_o apostle_n present_o after_o observe_v animate_v the_o whole_a body_n of_o christ_n and_o make_v it_o indeed_o to_o be_v one_o for_o so_o it_o follow_v 4._o ver_fw-la 4._o there_o be_v one_o body_n and_o one_o spirit_n and_o to_o the_o same_o purpose_n it_o be_v frequent_o express_v in_o other_o place_n thus_o in_o the_o precede_a part_n of_o this_o epistle_n 2.22_o
