he_o and_o coll._n 3.11_o have_v speak_v of_o they_o that_o have_v put_v on_o the_o new_a man_n as_o before_z say_v where_o there_o be_v neither_o jew_n nor_o greek_a etc._n etc._n but_o christ_n be_v

ephes_n 3._o and_o 20._o and_o in_o the_o same_o chapter_n you_o may_v see_v how_o he_o desire_v with_o bow_a knee_n unto_o the_o father_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n that_o he_o will_v grant_v they_o according_a to_o the_o riches_n of_o his_o glory_n to_o be_v strengthen_v with_o might_n by_o his_o spirit_n in_o the_o inward_a man_n and_o likewise_o in_o his_o epistle_n to_o titus_n 3.5_o have_v speak_v of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n to_o mankind_n not_o by_o work_n of_o righteousness_n which_o we_o have_v do_v but_o according_a to_o his_o mercy_n he_o save_v we_o by_o the_o wash_n of_o

of_o jesus_n to_o those_o that_o do_v believe_v and_o so_o through_o faith_n their_o sin_n come_v to_o be_v blot_v out_o yet_o without_o this_o wash_n of_o regeneration_n and_o work_n of_o the_o

how_o the_o christian_n witness_v the_o new_a birth_n and_o how_o the_o apostle_n labour_v for_o it_o yet_o this_o neither_o be_v by_o they_o then_o nor_o be_v by_o we_o now_o account_v man_n work_n

5.16_o say_v this_o i_o say_v then_o walk_v in_o the_o spirit_n and_o you_o shall_v not_o fullfil_v the_o lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n so_o you_o may_v see_v it_o be_v the_o spirit_n the_o saint_n be_v

that_n if_o any_o man_n have_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n he_o be_v none_o of_o he_o and_o verse_n 14._o say_v as_o many_o as_o be_v lead_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n they_o be_v the_o

that_o they_o shall_v walk_v in_o it_o who_o deny_v it_o or_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v adopt_v by_o it_o or_o seal_v by_o it_o and_o therefore_o let_v james_n barry_n in_o his_o answer_n make_v out_o how_o they_o come_v to_o be_v christian_n or_o child_n of_o god_n and_o whether_o they_o be_v christ_n and_o how_o they_o come_v to_o be_v so_o and_o whether_o they_o own_o regeneration_n

have_v a_o true_a faith_n and_o whether_o any_o man_n can_v have_v a_o true_a faith_n without_o the_o word_n of_o faith_n and_o whether_o this_o word_n of_o faith_n be_v not_o in_o the_o heart_n
