the_o good_a they_o must_v be_v casten_z off_o or_o else_o it_o can_v not_o have_v be_v know_v thus_o it_o be_v clear_a they_o be_v reject_v and_o casten_z off_o because_o they_o deny_v the_o change_n of_o dispensation_n which_o shall_v have_v enlarge_v they_o in_o spirit_n to_o have_v be_v the_o blessing_n of_o nation_n pray_v consider_v if_o something_o of_o this_o have_v not_o attend_v all_o the_o reformation_n according_a to_o their_o respective_a interest_n they_o can_v never_o as_o a_o body_n receive_v those_o further_a appearance_n of_o god_n testify_v unto_o by_o such_o as_o the_o lord_n send_v and_o and_o make_v use_n of_o and_o therefore_o stick_v in_o a_o fleshly_a knowledge_n of_o what_o they_o first_o know_v or_o receive_v like_o the_o jew_n which_o though_o good_a in_o itself_o so_o far_o as_o it_o reach_v but_o not_o consider_v that_o as_o god_n have_v do_v great_a thing_n for_o they_o he_o can_v still_o do_v great_a they_o dare_v never_o trust_v he_o in_o the_o deliver_n up_o of_o the_o talent_n therefore_o in_o stead_n of_o become_v more_o spiritual_a they_o stick_v in_o the_o flesh_n so_o that_o we_o may_v see_v in_o some_o sort_n what_o be_v of_o man_n come_v to_o be_v manifest_v in_o a_o society_n which_o be_v one_o body_n on_o a_o religious_a score_n and_o that_o be_v flesh_n and_o spirit_n which_o can_v never_o be_v reconcile_v and_o therefore_o the_o one_o must_v prevail_v and_o according_o as_o they_o prevail_v that_o body_n may_v be_v denominate_v but_o in_o particular_a person_n we_o have_v see_v the_o flesh_n overcome_v and_o that_o universallity_n of_o spirit_n bring_v forth_o testify_v too_o in_o the_o birth_n of_o christ_n yet_o true_o there_o want_v the_o example_n in_o a_o body_n or_o society_n of_o man_n so_o needful_a so_o

till_o shilo_n come_v and_o now_o you_o be_v upon_o the_o stage_n and_o more_o may_v be_v expect_v from_o you_o then_o other_o by_o how_o much_o you_o conclude_v god_n to_o have_v do_v more_o for_o

place_v your_o unity_n not_o upon_o the_o professor_n of_o the_o truth_n for_o he_o may_v be_v but_o as_o the_o fleshly_a child_n of_o abraham_n but_o upon_o the_o possessor_n and_o upon_o all_o

lord_n where_o ever_o he_o lead_v and_o those_o he_o will_v own_v for_o ever_o whether_o they_o be_v know_v unto_o the_o world_n or_o worldly_a professor_n or_o not_o he_o know_v they_o and_o be_v

nation_n those_o that_o fear_n god_n and_o work_n righteousness_n be_v accept_v of_o he_o and_o what_o be_v accept_v of_o god_n ought_v to_o be_v accept_v of_o man_n and_o therefore_o if_o you_o conceive_v you_o be_v leader_n not_o of_o israel_n in_o the_o flesh_n but_o of_o israel_n in_o the_o spirit_n you_o must_v know_v your_o spirit_n enlarge_v that_o you_o may_v own_o what_o god_n own_v for_o as_o our_o principal_n be_v universal_a our_o good_a will_n ought_v to_o be_v as_o large_a to_o the_o child_n of_o man_n for_o consider_v a_o universal_a principle_n and_o a_o narrow_a limit_a spirit_n be_v inconsistent_a but_o this_o can_v never_o be_v without_o a_o change_n of_o the_o dispensation_n come_v you_o know_v israel_n after_o the_o flesh_n be_v to_o allow_v the_o gentile_a to_o worship_n god_n in_o the_o outward_a court_n pray_v mind_v then_o if_o their_o outward_a court_n be_v not_o large_a than_o we_o it_o be_v true_a they_o have_v a_o inward_a court_n that_o such_o can_v not_o come_v to_o till_o circumcise_a be_v there_o then_o a_o outward_a court_n and_o a_o inward_a and_o have_v not_o we_o what_o answer_v to_o they_o now_o what_o be_v sit_v for_o the_o society_n of_o good_a man_n may_v not_o that_o very_o well_o be_v allow_v to_o come_v into_o our_o society_n or_o outward_a court_n for_o they_o who_o do_v not_o come_v thus_o far_o can_v come_v into_o the_o

which_o none_o can_v come_v to_o but_o by_o the_o true_a circumcision_n in_o spirit_n thus_o it_o be_v clear_a if_o our_o outward_a court_n be_v but_o a_o little_a more_o large_a our_o inward_a court_n will_v certain_o be_v the_o more_o prize_v value_v and_o seek_v after_o again_o you_o know_v the_o leader_n in_o israel_n in_o their_o travel_n from_o egypt_n to_o canaan_n be_v to_o travel_v according_a to_o the_o least_o of_o israel_n and_o do_v always_o own_o such_o as_o be_v circumcise_a though_o at_o eight_o day_n old_a to_o be_v of_o the_o church_n of_o god_n in_o the_o figure_n and_o pray_v will_v not_o this_o hold_n as_o true_a to_o spiritual_a israel_n what_o be_v circumcision_n in_o the_o flesh_n now_o but_o a_o holy_a conversation_n perform_v in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n for_o as_o this_o be_v so_o far_o accept_v of_o god_n it_o real_o fit_v for_o the_o society_n of_o good_a man_n and_o therefore_o its_o impossible_a it_o shall_v be_v reject_v of_o that_o people_n
