that_o in_o his_o judgement_n the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n be_v not_o general_a to_o affirm_v that_o no_o man_n can_v call_v jesus_n lord_z but_o by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o relate_v to_o

all_o man_n in_o confess_v christ_n speak_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o truth_n which_o they_o confess_v but_o it_o be_v reasonable_a to_o conceive_v that_o god_n suffer_v not_o

and_o this_o say_v he_o manifest_v to_o those_o that_o be_v without_o the_o church_n that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v in_o he_o that_o speak_v therefore_o so_o he_o call_v it_o say_v but_o to_o
