of_o thing_n he_o can_v never_o act_v his_o understanding_n and_o mind_n about_o it_o there_o be_v two_o short_a reason_n why_o those_o that_o be_v carnal_a and_o fleshly_a those_o that_o be_v after_o

and_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o spirit_n i_o will_v put_v they_o both_o together_o for_o the_o one_o will_v open_v the_o other_o and_o what_o be_v mean_v by_o mind_v the_o thing_n of_o the_o flesh_n

flesh_n therefore_o if_o you_o have_v not_o forget_v that_o you_o will_v easy_o understand_v this_o but_o yet_o to_o make_v it_o clear_a you_o must_v understand_v that_o a_o man_n be_v say_v to_o be_v after_o the_o flesh_n or_o carnal_a for_o so_o they_o read_v it_o in_o latin_a qui_fw-la carnalis_fw-la etc._n etc._n man_n be_v say_v to_o be_v carnal_a or_o after_o the_o flesh_n three_o way_n the_o

and_o have_v much_o corruption_n much_o flesh_n it_o please_v the_o holy_a ghost_n many_o time_n to_o denominate_v such_o a_o man_n by_o the_o great_a part_n that_o be_v in_o he_o which_o be_v flesh_n and_o so_o to_o call_v he_o carnal_a as_o in_o rom._n 7._o say_v paul_n speak_v how_o spiritual_a the_o law_n be_v but_o say_v he_o i_o be_o carnal_a sell_v under_o sin_n sell_v to_o sin_n not_o that_o there_o be_v no_o grace_n in_o paul_n but_o that_o there_o be_v such_o abundance_n of_o corruption_n at_o least_o in_o his_o feel_n so_o in_o 1_o cor._n 3._o be_v you_o not_o carnal_a say_v paul_n have_v you_o not_o need_v of_o milk_n be_v you_o noâ—_n babe_n when_o i_o hear_v there_o be_v such_o division_n that_o some_o be_v for_o paul_n and_o some_o for_o apollo_n and_o some_o for_o

over_o that_o little_a grace_n that_o be_v in_o you_o so_o in_o gal._n 6._o 1._o if_o any_o man_n be_v overtake_v with_o sin_n you_o that_o be_v spiritual_a restore_v such_o do_v that_o be_v as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v there_o be_v some_o carnal_a and_o they_o can_v keep_v themselves_o from_o be_v overtake_v freequent_o with_o sin_n and_o much_o less_o can_v such_o restore_v other_o but_o a_o spiritual_a man_n one_o that_o the_o spirit_n have_v prevail_v in_o some_o measure_n over_o the_o flesh_n in_o keep_v he_o from_o the_o foil_n and_o fall_v that_o weak_a man_n fall_v into_o and_o make_v he_o able_a in_o some_o measure_n to_o raise_v and_o heal_v other_o now_o so_o we_o be_v not_o to_o understand_v it_o here_o in_o this_o place_n when_o he_o say_v they_o that_o be_v after_o the_o flesh_n second_o a_o man_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v after_o the_o flesh_n or_o to_o be_v carnal_a a_o man_n that_o be_v a_o true_a saint_n may_v be_v action_n 2._o when_o a_o saint_n do_v a_o

to_o die_v for_o peter_n and_o for_o other_o poor_a sinner_n and_o peter_n take_v he_o aside_o and_o rebuke_n his_o master_n and_o tell_v he_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v so_o farr_n be_v it_o from_o thou_o christ_n take_v he_o and_o tell_v he_o get_v thou_o behind_o i_o satan_n thou_o be_v a_o offence_n to_o i_o for_o thou_o savory_a not_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n but_o the_o thing_n of_o man_n thou_o speak_v as_o a_o carnal_a fleshly_a man_n thou_o have_v no_o taste_n of_o spiritual_a thing_n if_o thou_o do_v look_v on_o it_o spiritual_o thou_o will_v rejoice_v and_o pray_v the_o lord_n to_o help_v thou_o to_o suffer_v in_o that_o temptation_n with_o thy_o master_n or_o to_o make_v a_o spiritual_a use_n of_o it_o but_o thou_o be_v carnal_a and_o savory_a of_o flesh_n now_o when_o the_o apostle_n say_v here_o they_o that_o be_v after_o the_o flesh_n do_v mind_n the_o thing_n of_o the_o flesh_n he_o do_v not_o proper_o mean_v that_o neither_o but_o three_o and_o last_o a_o man_n

man_n be_v so_o flesh_n and_o fleshly_a in_o their_o principle_n and_o action_n that_o there_o be_v nothing_o of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o they_o so_o it_o be_v principal_o to_o be_v take_v here_o though_o for_o the_o former_a two_o i_o may_v say_v this_o that_o as_o far_o as_o a_o saint_n either_o in_o the_o measure_n of_o his_o grace_n or_o in_o his_o action_n be_v fleshly_a he_o mind_v fleshly_a thing_n but_o a_o man_n that_o be_v whole_o fleshly_a whole_o mind_n fleshly_a thing_n and_o so_o much_o concern_v the_o first_o question_n the_o second_o thing_n be_v what_o be_v mean_v here_o by_o the_o spirit_n quest_n 2._o what_o mean_v by_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o of_o the_o spirit_n thing_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o by_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o spirit_n if_o you_o remember_v what_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o of_o flesh_n before_o you_o will_v understand_v much_o what_o be_v mean_v by_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o flesh_n i_o tell_v you_o flesh_n be_v old_a

will_v show_v you_o what_o the_o holy_a ghost_n call_v these_o thing_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o spirit_n that_o so_o by_o the_o scripture_n you_o may_v understand_v
