salvation_n have_v be_v whole_o perfect_v by_o the_o ●ody_n without_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n then_o our_o faith_n and_o hope_n shall_v have_v stand_v there_o but_o the_o same_o apostle_n say_v our_o faith_n and_o hope_n be_v to_o stand_v in_o god_n 1_o pet._n 1.21_o and_o the_o apostle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n say_v the_o hope_n that_o anchor_v the_o soul_n enter_v within_o the_o veil_n heb._n 6.19_o and_o john_n do_v bear_v witness_n to_o the_o word_n which_o be_v in_o the_o beginning_n john_n 1.1_o which_o word_n the_o world_n be_v make_v by_o and_o say_v of_o it_o that_o it_o be_v god_n &_o in_o this_o word_n be_v life_n verse_n 4._o and_o the_o life_n be_v the_o light_n of_o man_n and_o this_o be_v the_o light_n which_o that_o faithful_a witness_n of_o god_n john_n bear_v witness_n to_o that_o be_v the_o true_a light_n that_o enlighten_v every_o man_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n verse_n 9_o so_o people_n that_o which_o enlighten_v both_o you_o and_o we_o and_o every_o man_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n be_v not_o a_o natural_a light_n as_o some_o say_v &_o the_o priest_n sometime_o nor_o yet_o the_o light_n of_o the_o devil_n as_o the_o priest_n say_v othertime_n but_o it_o be_v the_o light_n of_o he_o that_o make_v the_o world_n as_o v._o 10._o and_o this_o be_v he_o that_o be_v make_v flesh_n v._o 14._o &_o the_o word_n be_v make_v flesh_n &_o dwell_v among_o we_o &_o we_o behold_v his_o glory_n the_o glory_n as_o of_o the_o only_o beget_v son_n of_o god_n full_a of_o grace_n &_o truth_n so_o here_o john_n bear_v a_o full_a testimony_n to_o the_o saviour_n of_o the_o world_n and_o so_o do_v we_o who_o be_v the_o lamb_n of_o god_n that_o take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n it_o be_v not_o say_v he_o take_v away_o the_o gild_n o●_n condemnation_n of_o sin_n only_o but_o the_o sin_n itself_o thus_o do_v we_o believe_v in_o he_o so_o let_v people_n judge_v whether_o this_o be_v not_o the_o true_a christ_n so_o here_o john_n do_v not_o bear_v record_n to_o a_o body_n only_o but_o to_o the_o anal_a power_n and_o godhead_n so_o the_o apostle_n heb._n 10.5_o bear_v witness_n to_o he_o for_o who_o the_o body_n be_v prepare_v say_v a_o body_n have_v thou_o prepare_v i_o to_o do_v thy_o will_n o_o god_n so_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o this_o body_n be_v prepare_v for_o he_o that_o be_v before_o that_o body_n be_v this_o be_v he_o who_o david_n in_o spirit_n call_v lord_n say_v the_o lord_n say_v unto_o my_o lord_n sit_v thou_o on_o my_o right_a hand_n till_o i_o have_v make_v thy_o enemy_n thy_o footstool_n and_o in_o the_o 2_o cor._n 5.19_o the_o apostle_n give_v this_o testimony_n god_n be_v in_o christ_n reconcile_n the_o world_n to_o himself_o and_o jesus_n himself_o say_v before_o abraham_n be_v i_o be_o and_o in_o another_o place_n he_o that_o have_v see_v i_o have_v see_v the_o father_n also_o so_o let_v any_o one_o judge_n that_o have_v a_o good_a understanding_n whether_o any_o of_o the_o witness_n of_o christ_n do_v ever_o bear_v witness_n against_o the_o spirit_n in_o the_o salvation_n of_o man_n but_o do_v true_o and_o real_o bear_v a_o live_a testimony_n to_o the_o spirit_n rom._n 8.2_o the_o law_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o life_n in_o christ_n jesus_n have_v make_v i_o free_a from_o the_o law_n of_o sin_n and_o death_n now_o at_o that_o time_n when_o paul_n cry_v out_o of_o the_o body_n of_o death_n he_o be_v a_o believer_n and_o be_v come_v so_o far_o as_o to_o a_o willing_a mind_n to_o serve_v the_o lord_n but_o yet_o the_o captivate_a spirit_n be_v feel_v the_o law_n in_o the_o member_n in_o which_o state_n paul_n do_v not_o sit_v down_o in_o a_o belief_n of_o christ_n at_o a_o distance_n only_o as_o people_n now_o a_o day_n do_v but_o cry_v out_o for_o deliverance_n even_o from_o the_o body_n of_o death_n and_o afterward_o testify_v to_o the_o law_n of_o the_o spirit_n say_v the_o law_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o life_n in_o christ_n jesus_n have_v set_v i_o free_a from_o the_o law_n of_o sin_n and_o death_n so_o here_o be_v salvation_n witness_v indeed_o he_o do_v not_o say_v sin_n must_v live_v in_o he_o while_o he_o have_v a_o body_n but_o say_v christ_n live_v in_o i_o gal_n 2.20_o and_o it_o be_v through_o the_o spirit_n that_o sin_n be_v mortify_v rom._n 8.13_o and_o in_o rom._n 10.8_o the_o apostle_n testify_v to_o christ_n nigh_o and_o not_o to_o christ_n at_o a_o distance_n say_v the_o word_n be_v nigh_o thou_o in_o the_o mouth_n and_o in_o the_o heart_n and_o in_o the_o 2_o cor._n 13.5_o examine_v yourselves_o whether_o you_o be_v in_o the_o faith_n try_v yourselves_o know_v you_o not_o your_o own_o self_n that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v in_o you_o except_o you_o be_v reprobate_n and_o in_o col._n 1.27_o which_o be_v christ_n in_o you_o the_o hope_n of_o glory_n for_o it_o be_v no_o other_o than_o that_o christ_n the_o saint_n do_v believe_v in_o in_o day_n by_o past_a it_o be_v his_o spiritual_a indwel_n in_o we_o through_o which_o we_o come_v to_o be_v sanctify_v and_o cleanse_v from_o sin_n and_o the_o comforter_n the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n which_o christ_n promise_v to_o send_v to_o his_o disciple_n which_o they_o be_v to_o wait_v for_o at_o jerusalem_n and_o according_o they_o do_v receive_v it_o and_o this_o dwell_v in_o they_o to_o direct_v they_o into_o all_o truth_n and_o so_o it_o be_v not_o a_o spirit_n without_o they_o or_o a_o christ_n without_o they_o only_o but_o within_o according_a as_o christ_n say_v john_n 17.14_o he_o dwell_v with_o you_o and_o shall_v be_v in_o you_o and_o the_o apostle_n testify_v in_o his_o day_n christ_n be_v in_o the_o saint_n who_o be_v their_o hope_n of_o glory_n and_o this_o hope_v purify_v their_o heart_n in_o who_o it_o dwell_v and_o anchor_v their_o soul_n in_o that_o which_o be_v sure_a and_o steadfast_a and_o in_o he_o be_v our_o hope_n and_o confidence_n who_o we_o believe_v be_v able_a to_o save_v to_o the_o utmost_a all_o that_o come_v unto_o god_n by_o he_o and_o so_o people_n it_o be_v in_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n we_o witness_v salvation_n which_o be_v his_o power_n to_o which_o come_v we_o witness_v salvation_n thereby_o and_o so_o we_o know_v not_o another_o name_n through_o which_o salvation_n be_v witness_v but_o through_o this_o name_n and_o this_o be_v he_o who_o we_o declare_v of_o who_o be_v not_o far_o from_o we_o and_o the_o efficacy_n of_o his_o blood_n we_o feel_v as_o we_o abide_v in_o he_o to_o cleanse_v we_o from_o sin_n so_o i_o do_v not_o matter_n what_o your_o teacher_n s._n b._n say_v viz._n the_o blood_n of_o christ_n cleansith_v no_o man_n from_o sin_n it_o be_v so_o contrary_a unto_o the_o apostle_n doctrine_n 1_o john_n 1.7_o which_o be_v but_o if_o you_o walk_v in_o the_o light_n as_o he_o be_v in_o the_o light_n we_o have_v fellowship_n one_o with_o another_o and_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n his_o son_n cleanse_v we_o from_o all_o sin_n and_o we_o witness_v it_o in_o its_o operation_n cleanse_v and_o wash_v the_o soul_n from_o the_o spiritual_a defilement_n of_o which_o some_o among_o we_o be_v come_v to_o the_o experience_n of_o in_o our_o measure_n so_o that_o we_o be_v not_o as_o those_o that_o beat_v the_o air_n but_o we_o be_v come_v to_o experience_n in_o some_o measure_n as_o i_o say_v although_o s._n b._n do_v mock_v at_o it_o the_o virtue_n and_o power_n of_o that_o grace_n of_o god_n which_o have_v appear_v to_o all_o man_n through_o which_o the_o saint_n be_v teach_v in_o day_n by_o past_a and_o in_o age_n and_o generation_n long_o since_o to_o deny_v ungodliness_n and_o worldly_a lust_n and_o to_o live_v godly_a righteous_o and_o sober_o in_o this_o present_a world_n now_o this_o grace_n be_v the_o same_o t_o at_o ever_o it_o be_v and_o its_o teach_n be_v the_o same_o to_o all_o that_o be_v obedient_a in_o this_o day_n as_o it_o be_v then_o to_o bring_v salvation_n indeed_o i_o do_v not_o know_v any_o doctrine_n so_o plentiful_a in_o the_o scripture_n as_o the_o indwel_n or_o inward_a or_o spiritual_a appearance_n of_o his_o spiritual_a kingdom_n which_o whoso_o do_v come_v to_o partake_v of_o must_v be_v redeem_v from_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o devil_n so_o have_v take_v off_o that_o reproach_n and_o slander_n from_o christ_n who_o we_o believe_v in_o and_o be_v our_o saviour_n the_o first_o and_o the_o last_o the_o alpha_n and_o

and_o only_a saviour_n through_o the_o work_n of_o his_o eternal_a power_n in_o the_o inward_a man_n which_o be_v wrought_v through_o faith_n in_o his_o name_n who_o in_o the_o day_n of_o his_o

that_o there_o be_v no_o revelation_n now_o adays_o and_o no_o freedom_n from_o in_o on_o this_o side_n the_o grave_a and_o if_o so_o then_o indeed_o there_o be_v no_o spiritual_a wash_v nor_o
