all_o you_o preacher_n in_o general_n that_o when_o you_o preach_v or_o pray_v it_o be_v not_o you_o but_o christ_n in_o you_o that_o pray_v i_o prove_v this_o to_o be_v your_o belief_n by_o these_o two_o reason_n first_o you_o do_v never_o in_o your_o meeting_n pray_v for_o pardon_n or_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n not_o that_o i_o have_v hear_v in_o twenty_o year_n due_a attendance_n for_o see_v it_o be_v christ_n in_o you_o that_o pray_v there_o be_v no_o need_n of_o it_o he_o be_v without_o sin_n second_o you_o do_v not_o pray_v to_o christ_n because_o it_o be_v christ_n in_o you_o that_o pray_v it_o be_v absurd_a for_o christ_n to_o pray_v to_o himself_o but_o i_o will_v take_v leave_v to_o tell_v you_o and_o prove_v it_o too_o if_o need_v be_v that_o you_o be_v of_o a_o different_a faith_n in_o these_o two_o thing_n from_o the_o apostle_n saint_n and_o martyr_n yea_o your_o faith_n or_o principle_n herein_o be_v contrary_a to_o all_o the_o primitive_a christian_n in_o general_a for_o the_o scripture_n church_n history_n and_o book_n of_o martyr_n show_v that_o then_o religion_n lead_v they_o to_o pray_v public_o for_o pardon_n for_o their_o sin_n and_o some_o even_o at_o the_o point_n of_o death_n and_o also_o both_o apostle_n and_o other_o christian_n frequent_o pray_v to_o jesus_n christ_n as_o well_o as_o to_o god_n the_o father_n indeed_o your_o presumption_n in_o this_o anti-christian_n principle_n be_v to_o be_v lament_v for_o when_o some_o of_o your_o fellow_n minister_n have_v be_v guilty_a of_o whoredom_n adultery_n etc._n etc._n though_o not_o then_o open_o know_v yet_o these_o man_n thus_o secret_o guilty_a can_v stoop_v no_o more_o than_o you_o to_o pray_v for_o pardon_n for_o their_o sin_n but_o still_o keep_v to_o their_o common_a form_n in_o prayer_n and_o this_o be_v a_o truth_n know_v to_o more_o than_o yourselves_o now_o i_o ask_v you_o whether_o do_v you_o believe_v it_o be_v christ_n that_o pray_v in_o these_o man_n too_o as_o well_o as_o in_o you_o who_o may_v not_o so_o be_v guilty_a pray_v answer_v in_o truth_n and_o sincerity_n to_o this_o and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o particular_n or_o other_o way_n ●e_v silent_a out_o i_o
