answer_v in_o write_v the_o thing_n query_v g._n f._n concern_v the_o scripture_n we_o witness_v the_o life_n thereof_o and_o by_o the_o same_o do_v we_o witness_v the_o scripture_n to_o be_v truth_n

imagination_n he_o must_v be_v keep_v out_o of_o the_o scripture_n and_o he_o who_o take_v the_o scripture_n and_o make_v a_o trade_n of_o they_o profess_v to_o interpret_v they_o and_o so_o get_v a_o live_n by_o they_o which_o be_v speak_v forth_o free_o he_o be_v a_o deceiver_n and_o must_v be_v shut_v out_o of_o the_o scripture_n and_o who_o read_v or_o take_v the_o scripture_n to_o talk_v or_o discourse_n of_o and_o be_v ignorant_a of_o the_o life_n must_v be_v keep_v out_o of_o the_o scripture_n for_o all_o those_o run_v in_o with_o their_o scripture_n wit_n and_o imagination_n wrest_v they_o for_o their_o own_o end_n add_v and_o diminish_v to_o their_o own_o destruction_n and_o so_o he_o must_v be_v shut_v out_o of_o the_o scripture_n for_o hence_o arise_v all_o these_o sect_n and_o opinion_n in_o the_o world_n run_v into_o the_o scripture_n with_o their_o wit_n imagination_n and_o dark_a mind_n one_o imagine_v one_o way_n and_o another_o another_o way_n and_o one_o of_o this_o opinion_n and_o another_o of_o that_o opinion_n but_o opinion_n be_v no_o assurance_n but_o be_v fallible_a and_o every_o one_o out_o of_o the_o way_n because_o they_o want_v the_o life_n which_o be_v the_o mystery_n and_o this_o be_v the_o difference_n between_o all_o sect_n and_o opinion_n and_o the_o infallible_a truth_n and_o so_o they_o come_v not_o in_o by_o the_o door_n but_o be_v climb_v up_o another_o way_n and_o so_o be_v shut_v out_o of_o the_o kingdom_n but_o the_o same_o which_o give_v they_o forth_o the_o same_o can_v open_v they_o and_o to_o it_o they_o be_v no_o mystery_n nor_o parable_n nor_o need_v any_o meaning_n 10.1_o for_o they_o be_v of_o no_o private_a interpretation_n nor_o come_v they_o in_o the_o old_a time_n by_o the_o will_n of_o man_n but_o holy_a man_n of_o god_n speak_v as_o they_o be_v move_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n neither_o can_v the_o will_n of_o man_n open_v they_o 21._o but_o the_o same_o which_o speak_v they_o forth_o the_o same_o can_v open_v they_o and_o speak_v they_o forth_o free_o so_o let_v he_o that_o have_v a_o dream_n tell_v a_o dream_n and_o he_o that_o have_v my_o word_n let_v he_o speak_v my_o word_n faithful_o what_o be_v the_o chaff_n to_o the_o wheat_n say_v the_o lord_n so_o he_o that_o have_v the_o letter_n let_v he_o speak_v the_o letter_n and_o he_o that_o have_v the_o life_n let_v he_o speak_v the_o life_n what_o be_v the_o husk_n to_o the_o kernel_n 1.1_o and_o what_o shall_v swine_n do_v with_o pearl_n who_o life_n be_v in_o husk_n and_o there_o they_o feed_v he_o that_o can_v receive_v let_v he_o the_o same_o which_o give_v it_o forth_o the_o same_o can_v open_v it_o and_o he_o who_o say_v the_o letter_n be_v the_o word_n be_v a_o deceiver_n and_o err_v not_o know_v the_o scripture_n for_o the_o scripture_n say_v in_o the_o beginning_n be_v the_o word_n and_o the_o word_n be_v god_n john_n 1.1_o and_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n come_v to_o the_o prophet_n and_o they_o speak_v from_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n jer._n 2.1_o and_o the_o word_n become_v flesh_n and_o dwell_v among_o the_o apostle_n and_o they_o see_v the_o glory_n thereof_o as_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o only_o beget_v son_n of_o the_o father_n full_a of_o grace_n and_o truth_n and_o the_o word_n be_v quick_a and_o powerful_a sharp_a than_o a_o two-edged_a sword_n 13_o and_o the_o word_n be_v immortal_a and_o this_o the_o apostle_n in_o who_o the_o word_n dwell_v bear_v witness_n of_o and_o have_v leave_v it_o upon_o record_n and_o we_o witness_v the_o same_o the_o word_n be_v the_o same_o which_o be_v be_v and_o be_v to_o be_v for_o ever_o and_o who_o put_v the_o letter_n for_o the_o word_n be_v blind_a and_o put_v the_o shadow_n for_o the_o substance_n and_o must_v be_v shut_v out_o of_o the_o scripture_n and_o he_o who_o say_v the_o letter_n be_v the_o
will_v bring_v forth_o his_o righteousness_n wherein_o his_o power_n shall_v appear_v wherein_o his_o presence_n shall_v be_v make_v manifest_a wherein_o that_o which_o shine_v before_o in_o the_o
