in_o thousand_o who_o be_v witness_n of_o the_o work_n of_o god_n holy_a spirit_n in_o some_o degree_n or_o measure_n viz._n that_o it_o be_v in_o christ_n god_n covenant_n in_o which_o we_o hope_v

with_o god_n be_v obtain_v no_o other_o way_n but_o by_o the_o one_o pure_a offer_v without_o spot_n or_o blemish_n by_o the_o effectual_a working_n of_o the_o eternal_a spirit_n where_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v witness_v to_o be_v sufficient_a to_o purge_v conscience_n of_o dead_a work_n and_o so_o to_o serve_v god_n in_o the_o new_a and_o live_a way_n which_o he_o have_v consecrate_v for_o we_o through_o the_o veil_n his_o flesh_n and_o therefore_o all_o who_o be_v thus_o partaker_n of_o god_n work_n by_o the_o revelation_n of_o god_n spirit_n be_v true_a witness_n of_o the_o blessing_n of_o god_n in_o this_o one_o unspotted_a offer_v we_o can_v but_o confess_v he_o before_o man_n deny_v all_o imaginary_a offering_n in_o man_n will_n where_o their_o garment_n be_v fill_v

may_v recommend_v unto_o man_n who_o live_v in_o the_o same_o but_o not_o unto_o god_n and_o therefore_o experience_n in_o the_o work_v of_o god_n bless_a spirit_n have_v teach_v we_o to_o deny_v they_o and_o by_o this_o christ_n of_o god_n the_o mediator_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n we_o have_v acceptance_n with_o god_n from_o whence_o the_o knowledge_n of_o salvation_n come_v by_o the_o

this_o mediator_n the_o which_o be_v real_o to_o be_v enjoy_v and_o know_v by_o the_o effectual_a working_n of_o god_n eternal_a spirit_n to_o the_o consolation_n and_o peace_n of_o soul_n who_o
