be_v not_o my_o intention_n but_o to_o make_v a_o short_a reply_n to_o that_o wherein_o he_o do_v particular_o and_o false_o accuse_v not_o only_o i_o but_o hugh_n eu●ns_v also_o in_o his_o 3._o pag._n he_o say_v that_o hugh_n evans_n say_v that_o christ_n &_o his_o spirit_n be_v distinct_a but_o he_o diminish_v from_o his_o word_n for_o hugh_n evans_n say_v that_o christ_n &_o his_o spirit_n be_v distinct_a in_o their_o office_n &_o operation_n now_o i_o will_v desire_v every_o honest_a mind_n to_o consider_v the_o baseness_n of_o this_o man_n that_o will_v cunning_o and_o purposely_o leave_v out_o half_a the_o man_n word_n and_o put_v the_o other_o half_o out_o in_o print_n for_o these_o be_v the_o word_n that_o hugh_n e._n van_n say_v that_o christ_n and_o his_o spirit_n be_v distinct_a in_o their_o office_n and_o operation_n then_o john_n moon_n accuse_v he_o of_o blasphemy_n in_o say_v that_o christ_n and_o his_o spirit_n be_v distinct_a then_o hugh_n say_v why_o do_v thou_o divide_v my_o word_n say_v john_n moon_n i_o will_v publish_v thy_o blasphemy_n then_o hugh_n evans_n say_v i_o charge_v thou_o to_o publish_v my_o whole_a say_n now_o i_o will_v have_v every_o sincere_a heart_n to_o judge_v whether_o this_o man_n be_v not_o leave_v here_o without_o a_o cover_n to_o hide_v his_o nakedness_n and_o shame_n be_v it_o not_o a_o shameful_a thing_n for_o he_o to_o accuse_v the_o man_n of_o blasphemy_n and_o yet_o he_o himself_o afraid_a to_o publish_v the_o whole_a pretend_a blasphemy_n or_o do_v it_o not_o argue_v that_o his_o malicious_a mind_n will_v cast_v a_o false_a aspersion_n upon_o hugh_n evans_n and_o upon_o that_o which_o he_o profess_v which_o i_o believe_v he_o aim_v amost_a at_o again_o consider_v whether_o this_o man_n have_v not_o make_v shipwreck_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n if_o ever_o he_o have_v any_o that_o will_v know_o and_o purposed_o misrepresent_v a_o man_n to_o all_o people_n under_o the_o title_n of_o a_o blasphemer_n &_o yet_o will_v not_o publish_v his_o whole_a say_n which_o he_o do_v over_o &_o over_o repeat_v i_o do_v not_o speak_v this_o because_o that_o the_o say_n be_v so_o gross_a in_o the_o term_n as_o john_n moon_n have_v put_v it_o out_o but_o to_o show_v the_o dishonesty_n of_o this_o perfect_a man_n this_o i_o say_v to_o thou_o john_n moon_n that_o either_o thou_o do_v not_o understand_v the_o sense_n of_o the_o word_n distinct_a or_o else_o thou_o be_v very_o willing_a to_o make_v uprear_n and_o quarrel_n where_o there_o be_v no_o cause_n but_o i_o do_v believe_v both_o of_o thou_o therefore_o i_o shall_v show_v thou_o how_o christ_n &_o his_o spirit_n be_v not_o distinct_a second_o how_o he_o be_v distinct_a or_o distinguish_v the_o word_n distinct_a do_v not_o always_o mean_v two_o material_a thing_n stand_v at_o a_o distance_n the_o one_o from_o the_o other_o as_o it_o be_v like_a thou_o do_v ignorant_o suppose_v there_o be_v distance_n in_o place_n in_o time_n and_o in_o person_n but_o neither_o of_o these_o distinction_n be_v to_o be_v make_v between_o christ_n &_o his_o spirit_n there_o be_v also_o distinction_n in_o nature_n quality_n and_o property_n yet_o i_o do_v not_o say_v that_o christ_n and_o his_o spirit_n be_v so_o to_o be_v distinguish_v the_o father_n son_n and_o spirit_n be_v distinguish_v yet_o not_o divide_v though_o it_o be_v like_a that_o thou_o do_v think_v that_o whatsoever_o be_v distinguish_v be_v divide_v there_o be_v three_o that_o bear_v witness_n in_o heaven_n the_o father_n son_n and_o the_o spirit_n and_o these_o three_o be_v one_o yet_o distinguish_v three_o and_o so_o it_o may_v be_v say_v of_o christ_n and_o his_o spirit_n very_o much_o may_v be_v say_v of_o christ_n be_v distinct_a in_o his_o office_n yet_o not_o separate_v nor_o divide_v from_o his_o spirit_n christ_n say_v as_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o man_n i_o have_v finish_v the_o work_n which_o thou_o have_v give_v i_o to_o do_v but_o it_o can_v be_v say_v that_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n have_v finish_v his_o work_n until_o all_o be_v convert_v that_o ever_o shall_v be_v convert_v and_o all_o the_o saint_n glorify_v but_o the_o work_n of_o christ_n in_o suffer_v for_o sin_n in_o the_o flesh_n be_v finish_v yet_o christ_n and_o his_o spirit_n be_v not_o divide_v but_o distinguish_v it_o be_v like_o that_o john_n moon_n think_v by_o leave_v out_o part_n of_o the_o word_n which_o hugh_n evans_n have_v say_v that_o it_o will_v appear_v more_o like_a to_o be_v blasphemy_n it_o appear_v also_o that_o john_n moon_n do_v know_v that_o it_o be_v no_o blasphemy_n as_o hugh_n evans_n have_v speak_v it_o or_o at_o least_o that_o he_o will_v not_o be_v believe_v by_o other_o if_o he_o do_v write_v the_o whole_a say_n take_v the_o wise_a man_n speech_n that_o ever_o be_v and_o let_v i_o leave_v out_o what_o part_n i_o will_v of_o it_o i_o know_v that_o i_o shall_v either_o make_v it_o blasphemy_n or_o nonsense_n as_o for_o instance_n psalm_n 14.1_o which_o say_v the_o fool_n say_v in_o his_o heart_n there_o be_v no_o god_n leave_v out_o the_o fool_n say_v in_o his_o heart_n and_o then_o you_o may_v say_v that_o the_o scripture_n say_v there_o be_v no_o god_n john_n moon_n affirmative_a be_v true_a but_o his_o negative_a be_v false_a it_o be_v true_a that_o christ_n and_o his_o spirit_n be_v one_o but_o to_o say_v there_o be_v no_o distinction_n in_o their_o office_n operation_n and_o working_n be_v false_a as_o may_v be_v further_o prove_v by_o many_o instance_n but_o that_o the_o thing_n be_v so_o plain_a that_o i_o desire_v not_o to_o trouble_v the_o reader_n any_o further_o but_o know_v this_o that_o christ_n and_o his_o spirit_n be_v one_o in_o reference_n to_o time_n place_n and_o person_n and_o a_o harmony_n of_o a_o agreement_n between_o they_o in_o their_o office_n operation_n and_o working_n all_o in_o and_o fulfil_v of_o the_o will_n of_o the_o one_o only_a wise_a god_n i_o say_v further_o that_o the_o only_a wise_a pure_a father_n son_n spirit_z and_o saint_n be_v one_o and_o yet_o a_o thousand_o distinction_n i_o believe_v may_v be_v observe_v touch_v the_o father_n son_n spirit_z and_o saint_n and_o without_o distinction_n he_o nor_o no_o man_n else_o can_v speak_v much_o of_o they_o &_o not_o blaspheme_v i_o say_v say_v john_n moon_n that_o they_o be_v one_o and_o not_o distinct_a then_o i_o say_v if_o there_o be_v no_o distinction_n why_o do_v he_o call_v christ_n and_o his_o spirit_n they_o which_o do_v signify_v plurality_n he_o nor_o no_o man_n else_o can_v speak_v of_o the_o father_n son_n and_o spirit_n and_o not_o make_v distinction_n for_o in_o the_o word_n themselves_o lie_v distinction_n say_v the_o apostle_n joh._n 17.21_o 22._o where_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o father_n son_n and_o spirit_n and_o these_o three_o be_v one_o these_o and_o thou_o and_o i_o they_o and_o we_o all_o these_o word_n do_v signify_v distinction_n yet_o not_o division_n he_o go_v on_o to_o prove_v that_o christ_n and_o his_o spirit_n be_v one_o and_o so_o fight_v with_o his_o own_o shadow_n for_o nothing_o else_o have_v he_o to_o fight_v with_o for_o all_o will_v say_v that_o christ_n and_o his_o spirit_n be_v one_o but_o if_o any_o will_v deny_v it_o he_o go_v very_o weak_o to_o prove_v it_o for_o he_o go_v about_o to_o prove_v that_o which_o all_o england_n do_v acknowledge_v in_o word_n and_o not_o make_v good_a any_o thing_n against_o what_o be_v affirm_v that_o christ_n and_o his_o spirit_n be_v distinguish_v and_o this_o be_v the_o effect_n of_o his_o reason_n because_o john_n and_o paul_n do_v witness_v union_n between_o christ_n and_o his_o spirit_n therefore_o no_o distinction_n as_o he_o say_v after_o he_o cite_v rom_n 8.20_o and_o joh._n 17.21_o now_o see_v where_o be_v the_o distinction_n say_v he_o than_o he_o write_v down_o john_n 17.21_o 22._o then_o say_v he_o they_o that_o have_v a_o eye_n to_o see_v withal_o let_v they_o see_v the_o confusion_n which_o the_o baptist_n declare_v whereas_o it_o be_v his_o own_o confusion_n foam_v out_o his_o own_o shame_n and_o false_o accuse_v those_o who_o he_o call_v the_o baptist_n in_o say_v that_o they_o say_v that_o christ_n and_o his_o spirit_n be_v distinct_a the_o one_o from_o the_o other_o but_o thou_o have_v graft_v on_o this_o lie_n since_o thou_o thyself_o do_v repeat_v that_o part_n of_o the_o word_n which_o hugh_n evans_n have_v say_v for_o neither_o do_v hugh_n evans_n say_v nor_o thyself_o till_o now_o that_o they_o be_v one_o from_o the_o other_o be_v this_o thy_o honesty_n first_o to_o diminish_v from_o the_o man_n word_n and_o instead_o of_o they_o add_v thy_o own_o hugh_z evans_z say_v that_o christ_n and_o his_o

shall_v be_v change_v for_o the_o trumpet_n shall_v sound_v they_o that_o have_v do_v good_a to_o the_o resurrection_n of_o life_n and_o they_o that_o have_v do_v evil_a to_o the_o resurrection_n of_o

i_o have_v not_o the_o copy_n of_o else_o i_o will_v have_v set_v it_o down_o here_o but_o the_o effect_n of_o it_o be_v this_o john_n moon_n have_v charge_v i_o with_o balaams_n sin_n and_o why_o
