lordship_n and_o the_o church_n put_v a_o honest_a sense_n and_o the_o racovian_o be_v too_o stiff_a in_o refuse_v they_o especial_o consider_v that_o in_o their_o very_a catechism_n they_o speak_v in_o other_o phrase_n as_o honourable_o of_o christ_n as_o his_o lordship_n for_o they_o say_v that_o christ_n be_v by_o no_o mean_n to_o be_v repute_v a_o mere_a man_n they_o give_v their_o reason_n for_o it_o and_o therefore_o call_v he_o a_o man_n true_o divine_a and_o for_o my_o part_n i_o think_v a_o man_n true_o divine_a must_v have_v a_o nature_n true_o divine_a and_o therefore_o the_o racovian_o who_o doctrine_n be_v teach_v by_o the_o bishop_n will_v have_v do_v better_a have_v they_o teach_v it_o in_o the_o term_n of_o art_n which_o the_o bishop_n use_v though_o perhaps_o he_o

unitarian_n full_o to_o demonstrate_v their_o orthodoxy_n allow_v the_o eternal_a generation_n of_o the_o logos_fw-la son_n or_o wisdom_n let_v i_o not_o forget_v that_o i_o observe_v the_o bishop_n do_v not_o so_o well_o agree_v in_o one_o small_a respect_n with_o the_o unitarian_n which_o respect_n be_v such_o that_o therein_o he_o be_v at_o some_o small_a variance_n with_o himself_o the_o thing_n be_v this_o he_o have_v affirm_v that_o god_n and_o man_n make_v one_o person_n as_o the_o soul_n and_o body_n make_v one_o man_n it_o be_v proper_a for_o he_o to_o take_v up_o with_o this_o

that_o the_o human_a nature_n in_o christ_n have_v no_o special_a subsistence_n though_o it_o be_v not_o easy_a to_o explain_v this_o notion_n since_o if_o subsistence_n belong_v to_o the_o human_a

here_o he_o sufficient_o discover_v to_o any_o consider_a reader_n that_o he_o believe_v the_o human_a nature_n of_o christ_n have_v a_o proper_a subsistence_n and_o if_o it_o have_v a_o proper_a

for_o the_o bishop_n explain_v subsistence_n thus_o we_o may_v conceive_v the_o subsistence_n of_o a_o intelligent_a be_v 107._o p._n 107._o to_o be_v its_o act_n entire_o in_o itself_o or_o upon_o
