we_o may_v conceive_v many_o thing_n even_o by_o the_o letter_n itself_o and_o yet_o not_o live_v in_o that_o spirit_n that_o write_v the_o letter_n we_o may_v err_v i_o pray_v do_v not_o mistake_v

that_o i_o be_v never_o so_o confirm_v in_o it_o now_o the_o lord_n have_v draw_v i_o to_o he_o out_o of_o it_o even_o in_o that_o spirit_n that_o wrought_v it_o i_o be_o for_o the_o conscionable_a

therefore_o you_o will_v not_o count_v it_o your_o excellency_n to_o walk_v in_o the_o letter_n but_o rather_o desire_v the_o lord_n to_o perfect_v you_o in_o that_o spirit_n that_o write_v the_o

for_o say_v he_o there_o must_v be_v a_o fall_v away_o first_o and_o that_o wicked_a one_o be_v reveal_v notwithstanding_o peter_n tell_v they_o that_o he_o be_v a_o partaker_n of_o that_o glory_n that_o shall_v be_v afterward_o reveal_v however_o say_v he_o you_o have_v a_o sure_a word_n of_o prophecy_n to_o which_o you_o do_v well_o to_o take_v heed_n as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v brethren_n we_o have_v be_v with_o the_o lord_n in_o the_o mount_n and_o have_v behold_v that_o excellent_a glory_n but_o yet_o to_o you_o that_o have_v not_o so_o see_v christ_n there_o be_v a_o more_o sure_a word_n of_o prophecy_n for_o vision_n and_o revelation_n do_v most_o especial_o confirm_v and_o strengthen_v those_o that_o have_v they_o but_o here_o be_v a_o word_n that_o be_v speak_v to_o all_o and_o be_v as_o a_o light_n shine_v in_o a_o dark_a place_n therefore_o you_o do_v well_o to_o take_v heed_n to_o it_o till_o the_o day_n dawn_n and_o the_o day_n star_n arise_v in_o your_o own_o

that_o speak_v of_o that_o day_n it_o must_v be_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n alone_o let_v we_o cease_v from_o our_o own_o spirit_n therefore_o for_o they_o be_v selfish_a and_o private_a bind_v up_o to_o this_o and_o that_o and_o so_o it_o will_v confine_v god_n also_o but_o his_o spirit_n be_v as_o large_a as_o himself_o it_o be_v without_o bond_n it_o be_v neither_o here_o nor_o there_o

all_o the_o world_n have_v wander_v after_o the_o beast_n since_o the_o apostle_n time_n therefore_o how_o near_o may_v we_o expect_v our_o glory_n we_o shall_v not_o be_v trouble_v ourselves_o

the_o lord_n must_v have_v a_o dawn_n and_o some_o disciple_n may_v be_v take_v up_o into_o the_o mount_n before_o other_o some_o it_o shall_v teach_v we_o not_o to_o judge_v our_o brethren_n that_o speak_v of_o high_a enjoyment_n than_o we_o have_v for_o we_o be_v behind_o shall_v rather_o judge_v ourselves_o see_v we_o be_v more_o in_o the_o day_n of_o man_n and_o acknowledge_v ourselves_o so_o to_o be_v still_o look_v for_o and_o hasten_v to_o the_o day_n of_o god_n in_o which_o we_o may_v act_v self_n nor_o selfish_o no_o long_o but_o our_o god_n may_v bring_v forth_o his_o own_o
