we_o into_o this_o life_n we_o take_v not_o the_o lord_n into_o our_o principle_n we_o be_v not_o comprehender_n of_o this_o life_n but_o we_o be_v comprehend_v here_o be_v the_o mistake_n we_o see_v

but_o consider_v therefore_o that_o same_o place_n 1_o john_n 3._o beginning_n compare_v with_o the_o 6._o verse_n now_o be_v you_o the_o son_n of_o god_n but_o it_o do_v not_o yet_o appear_v what_o

in_o he_o sin_v not_o we_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n but_o it_o do_v not_o yet_o appear_v our_o flesh_n be_v a_o vail_n and_o while_o we_o be_v in_o the_o flesh_n let_v we_o act_v never_o so_o spiritual_o yet_o we_o fall_v short_a of_o this_o life_n flesh_n and_o blood_n can_v inherit_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n but_o if_o at_o any_o time_n we_o be_v take_v up_o into_o the_o communion_n of_o this_o life_n it_o be_v by_o be_v take_v out_o of_o ourselves_o therefore_o say_v paul_n whether_o in_o the_o body_n or_o out_o of_o the_o body_n i_o can_v tell_v i_o conceive_v god_n give_v paul_n a_o earnest_n of_o that_o which_o he_o will_v make_v know_v to_o his_o people_n in_o the_o latter_a day_n and_o make_v it_o know_v to_o paul_n in_o a_o visible_a and_o sensible_a rapture_n and_o whosoever_o in_o the_o latter_a day_n be_v take_v into_o the_o communion_n of_o this_o life_n must_v be_v spiritual_o dissolve_v as_o paul_n be_v for_o as_o christ_n crucify_v in_o the_o flesh_n

and_o darkness_n and_o make_v out_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n in_o visible_a and_o audible_a shape_n as_o it_o be_v but_o god_n make_v out_o himself_o to_o we_o when_o he_o take_v we_o out_o of_o ourselves_o into_o himself_o without_o any_o form_n do_v you_o see_v any_o shape_n say_v the_o lord_n to_o the_o israelite_n when_o the_o lord_n talk_v with_o you_o so_o when_o the_o lord_n take_v a_o
