manifest_v that_o there_o be_v error_n and_o heresy_n heretic_n and_o erroneous_a person_n in_o the_o world_n for_o as_o i_o have_v say_v before_o it_o be_v not_o now_o my_o work_n to_o ennumerate_v the_o particular_a part_n of_o error_n and_o heresy_n that_o be_v hold_v in_o principle_n doctrine_n and_o practice_n in_o the_o world_n at_o this_o day_n they_o be_v so_o many_o and_o large_a but_o yet_o more_o particular_o thus_o i_o will_v in_o brief_a define_v heretic_n and_o heresy_n that_o man_n whatsoever_o he_o be_v be_v in_o error_n in_o all_o part_n of_o his_o principle_n and_o practice_n hold_v and_o maintain_v by_o he_o in_o point_n of_o religion_n and_o worship_n of_o god_n especial_o that_o be_v not_o persuade_v of_o the_o truth_n and_o verity_n of_o his_o way_n by_o the_o holy_a spirit_n of_o god_n and_o lead_v guide_v and_o teach_v in_o the_o performance_n and_o practice_n thereof_o by_o the_o same_o spirit_n of_o jesus_n if_o the_o holy_a spirit_n of_o god_n dwell_v not_o in_o he_o and_o do_v not_o preswade_v the_o heart_n in_o the_o belief_n of_o the_o truth_n and_o teach_v and_o lead_v the_o man_n in_o the_o practice_n of_o it_o such_o a_o man_n even_o that_o man_n err_v and_o be_v in_o error_n in_o all_o what_o he_o be_v and_o what_o he_o do_v in_o point_n of_o religion_n and_o duty_n to_o god-ward_n and_o that_o because_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n and_o righteousness_n be_v not_o the_o only_a leader_n and_o teacher_n in_o the_o thing_n profess_v and_o practise_v but_o either_o tradition_n example_n of_o other_o or_o custom_n of_o

and_o thus_o be_v distinguish_v and_o know_v a_o man_n that_o be_v erroneous_a in_o his_o faith_n and_o practice_n not_o teach_v and_o persuade_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n in_o what_o he_o be_v and_o in_o what_o he_o do_v he_o be_v in_o error_n and_o in_o a_o degree_n of_o heresy_n err_v in_o mind_n and_o judgement_n and_o conscience_n in_o principle_n and_o practice_n and_o subject_a to_o err_v in_o all_o thing_n now_o as_o for_o the_o case_n of_o error_n and_o heresy_n as_o the_o matter_n have_v stand_v in_o distinguish_v of_o heretic_n and_o heresy_n in_o judge_v of_o the_o

in_o the_o spirit_n and_o power_n of_o christ_n jesus_n but_o man_n case_n and_o proceed_n all_o have_v be_v pervert_v from_o truth_n in_o that_o matter_n because_o the_o spirit_n of_o darkness_n and_o ignorance_n have_v rule_v and_o not_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n and_o the_o spirit_n that_o be_v not_o of_o the_o father_n which_o spirit_n of_o the_o father_n be_v
