express_v full_o my_o thought_n about_o our_o spiritual_a union_n in_o his_o lib._n 4._o cap._n 17._o i_o answer_v i_o have_v forget_v what_o he_o have_v write_v answ._n and_o myself_o have_v read_v long_o since_o out_o of_o he_o and_o for_o the_o present_a i_o have_v no_o book_n about_o i_o where_o i_o be_o and_o therefore_o can_v satisfy_v you_o in_o this_o neither_o know_v i_o when_o i_o shall_v seek_v to_o find_v out_o the_o book_n and_o place_n if_o i_o have_v leisure_n i_o will_v either_o write_v to_o you_o or_o tell_v some_o of_o your_o friend_n before_o i_o be_o go_v what_o he_o have_v say_v or_o write_v that_o way_n etc._n etc._n again_o three_o 3._o you_o desire_v i_o to_o tell_v you_o how_o myself_o come_v to_o the_o cure_n of_o atheistical_a thought_n and_o whether_o they_o do_v wear_v out_o or_o whether_o they_o be_v rational_o overthrow_v i_o answer_v answ._n at_o first_o they_o do_v wear_v out_o meet_v with_o fruitless_a and_o deadhearted_a company_n which_o

will_v common_o convince_v my_o understanding_n that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n but_o i_o feel_v it_o utter_o insufficient_a to_o persuade_v my_o will_n of_o it_o unless_o it_o be_v by_o fit_n when_o as_o i_o think_v god_n spirit_n move_v upon_o the_o chaos_n of_o those_o horrible_a thought_n and_o this_o i_o think_v will_v be_v find_v a_o truth_n 3._o i_o do_v groan_n under_o the_o bondage_n of_o those_o unbelieving_a thought_n look_v up_o and_o sigh_v to_o the_o lord_n that_o if_o he_o be_v as_o his_o work_n and_o word_n declare_v he_o to_o be_v he_o will_v be_v please_v to_o reveal_v himself_o by_o his_o own_o beam_n and_o persuade_v my_o heart_n by_o his_o own_o spirit_n of_o his_o essence_n and_o be_v which_o if_o he_o will_v do_v i_o shall_v account_v it_o the_o great_a mercy_n that_o ever_o he_o show_v i_o and_o after_o grievous_a and_o heavy_a perplexity_n when_o i_o be_v by_o they_o almost_o force_v to_o make_v a_o end_n of_o myself_o and_o sinful_a life_n and_o to_o be_v i_o own_o executioner_n the_o lord_n come_v between_o the_o bridge_n and_o the_o water_n and_o set_v i_o out_o of_o anguish_n of_o spirit_n as_o she_o pray_v for_o a_o child_n to_o pray_v unto_o he_o for_o light_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o so_o great_a darkness_n in_o which_o time_n he_o reveal_v himself_o manifest_v his_o love_n still_v all_o those_o rage_a thought_n give_v return_v in_o great_a measure_n of_o they_o so_o that_o though_o i_o can_v not_o read_v the_o scripture_n without_o blasphemous_a thought_n before_o now_o i_o see_v a_o glory_n a_o majesty_n a_o mystery_n a_o depth_n in_o it_o which_o full_o persuade_v and_o which_o light_n i_o desire_v to_o speak_v it_o to_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o free_a grace_n see_v you_o call_v i_o to_o it_o be_v not_o whole_o put_v out_o but_o remain_v while_o i_o desire_v to_o walk_v close_o with_o he_o unto_o this_o day_n and_o thus_o the_o lord_n open_v my_o eye_n and_o cure_v i_o of_o this_o misery_n and_o if_o any_o such_o base_a thought_n come_v like_o beggar_n to_o my_o door_n to_o my_o mind_n and_o put_v these_o scruple_n to_o i_o i_o use_v to_o send_v they_o away_o with_o this_o answer_n why_o shall_v i_o question_v that_o truth_n which_o i_o have_v both_o know_v and_o see_v but_o you_o say_v this_o remedy_n be_v good_a object_n viz._n of_o prayer_n but_o that_o you_o can_v use_v it_o especial_o because_o you_o question_v the_o truth_n of_o god_n yet_o dear_a sir_n give_v not_o over_o this_o trade_n answ._n you_o will_v doubtless_o find_v it_o gainful_a when_o it_o may_v be_v god_n have_v lade_v you_o more_o with_o these_o thought_n and_o make_v you_o loathe_v yourself_o for_o they_o but_o the_o thing_n seem_v strange_a to_o i_o if_o i_o mistake_v you_o not_o viz._n that_o your_o heart_n will_v not_o be_v persuade_v but_o that_o you_o must_v resolve_v your_o doubt_n concerning_o the_o perfection_n of_o scripture_n not_o by_o seek_v to_o h●rmonise_v those_o passage_n that_o seem_v to_o cross_v one_o another_o but_o by_o ascribe_v some_o humanity_n or_o error_n if_o i_o may_v interpret_v you_o to_o the_o penman_n see_v st._n paul_n say_v we_o prophesy_v but_o in_o part_n and_o see_v one_o of_o the_o evangelist_n leave_v out_o the_o doxology_n in_o the_o lord_n prayer_n sir_n if_o you_o take_v these_o thought_n arise_v from_o these_o and_o the_o like_a ground_n as_o your_o burden_n i_o do_v not_o blame_v you_o but_o pity_v you_o in_o that_o respect_n but_o if_o your_o judgement_n indeed_o think_v so_o i_o be_o sorry_a you_o shall_v harbour_n such_o thought_n one_o hour_n within_o door_n for_o you_o know_v that_o holy_a man_n write_v the_o scripture_n but_o so_o far_o they_o may_v err_v but_o it_o be_v add_v as_o they_o be_v inspire_v or_o as_o the_o original_a have_v it_o as_o they_o be_v move_v or_o carry_v in_o the_o arm_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o so_o how_o can_v they_o err_v how_o can_v god_n lie_v it_o be_v true_a paul_n do_v prophesy_v but_o in_o part_n and_o be_v this_o a_o argument_n because_o he_o do_v not_o prophesy_v full_o therefore_o in_o some_o thing_n he_o do_v not_o prophesy_v true_o i_o be_o persuade_v you_o will_v say_v there_o be_v many_o thing_n my_o poor_a thought_n have_v suggest_v to_o you_o as_o true_a and_o yet_o i_o be_o persuade_v i_o do_v in_o they_o prophesy_v if_o i_o may_v so_o say_v but_o in_o part_n the_o spirit_n of_o god_n direct_v the_o four_o evangelist_n to_o write_v yet_o so_o as_o they_o do_v not_o all_o write_v what_o another_o writ_n but_o in_o great_a wisdom_n leave_v some_o thing_n doubtful_a and_o short_a in_o one_o which_o be_v more_o clear_a and_o full_a in_o another_o and_o hence_o the_o doxology_n be_v full_o set_v down_o in_o one_o and_o not_o in_o another_o and_o many_o reason_n i_o can_v set_v you_o down_o why_o but_o that_o it_o be_v needless_a i_o grant_v you_o ought_v not_o to_o put_v up_o all_o with_o a_o charitable_a opinion_n of_o scripture_n but_o if_o you_o can_v by_o reason_n read_v and_o compare_v help_v your_o heart_n to_o a_o full_a persuasion_n this_o be_v scripture_n but_o many_o thing_n you_o can_v get_v satisfaction_n for_o by_o that_o way_n and_o mean_n but_o still_o your_o spirit_n will_v be_v leave_v dark_a and_o doubtful_a what_o course_n will_v you_o here_o take_v for_o resolution_n which_o be_v scripture_n the_o papist_n say_v it_o be_v so_o because_o the_o church_n have_v christen_v it_o for_o scripture_n you_o say_v you_o will_v see_v reason_n for_o it_o that_o it_o be_v so_o or_o else_o you_o can_v be_v satisfy_v than_o i_o fear_v you_o will_v never_o be_v satisfy_v i_o think_v in_o this_o case_n therefore_o these_o two_o thing_n you_o be_v to_o do_v 1._o to_o go_v to_o god_n by_o prayer_n to_o give_v you_o a_o resolution_n of_o all_o your_o doubt_n and_o by_o some_o mean_n or_o other_o some_o light_n to_o see_v whether_o this_o be_v his_o word_n or_o not_o second_o if_o this_o be_v his_o word_n that_o he_o will_v persuade_v your_o heart_n of_o it_o that_o it_o be_v so_o for_o the_o least_o resolution_n which_o be_v scripture_n and_o which_o be_v not_o be_v make_v by_o the_o same_o persuasion_n and_o sole_a persuasion_n of_o the_o same_o spirit_n that_o write_v the_o scripture_n concerning_o the_o angel_n that_o appear_v to_o mary_n see_v gerard_n and_o he_o brief_o i_o think_v will_v satisfy_v you_o in_o your_o answer_n to_o the_o particular_a scruple_n about_o the_o scripture_n sense_n and_o the_o dissonancy_n of_o they_o only_o this_o i_o will_v add_v to_o the_o last_o clause_n about_o these_o thing_n that_o if_o the_o scripture_n be_v inspire_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o that_o not_o in_o the_o sum_n and_o substance_n of_o it_o but_o to_o every_o word_n and_o sentence_n of_o it_o which_o i_o think_v you_o will_v not_o doubt_v of_o when_o you_o have_v consider_v it_o than_o i_o think_v it_o will_v undeniable_o follow_v that_o the_o same_o spirit_n of_o truth_n be_v also_o a_o spirit_n of_o order_n and_o hence_o the_o method_n of_o various_a pen_n of_o it_o be_v from_o the_o spirit_n too_o which_o you_o say_v you_o stick_v at_o again_o to_o your_o three_o thing_n 2._o concerning_o your_o spirit_n be_v burden_v with_o involuntary_a infirmity_n as_o burden_n but_o not_o as_o sin_n i_o say_v nothing_o now_o because_o i_o perceive_v by_o one_o part_n of_o your_o reply_n that_o the_o lord_n have_v do_v you_o some_o good_a by_o the_o first_o answer_n only_o it_o be_v your_o grief_n you_o can_v
