understanding_n or_o the_o day_n be_v not_o so_o far_o dawn_v upon_o they_o we_o shall_v not_o have_v determine_v because_o our_o business_n be_v to_o consider_v what_o the_o lord_n have_v do_v for_o we_o have_v he_o not_o give_v we_o to_o believe_v that_o god_n holy_a spirit_n be_v the_o only_a guide_n into_o all_o truth_n the_o substance_n of_o all_o type_n and_o figure_n and_o the_o fulfiller_n

to_o perfect_a and_o not_o only_o as_o a_o expedient_a for_o the_o present_a want_n and_o so_o only_o to_o be_v use_v till_o christ_n come_v in_o power_n to_o govern_v the_o soul_n instead_o of_o

outward_a rule_n as_o it_o concern_v a_o holy_a conversation_n on_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n be_v of_o any_o service_n but_o until_o he_o come_v therefore_o outward_a rule_n as_o above_o be_v set_v

dispensation_n of_o law_n and_o gospel_n must_v be_v know_v in_o every_o man_n that_o come_v true_o through_o the_o work_n of_o regeneration_n into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o as_o the_o natural_a life_n be_v hard_o to_o be_v part_v with_o where_o a_o better_a be_v not_o hope_v for_o so_o where_o the_o life_n of_o religion_n stand_v in_o outward_a thing_n or_o rule_n they_o be_v
