our_o gracious_a god_n supernatural_o to_o reveal_v his_o whole_a will_n touch_v his_o church_n duty_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n unto_o particular_a man_n move_v they_o by_o his_o spirit_n

the_o light_n in_o every_o man_n without_o supernatural_a revelation_n can_v make_v no_o discovery_n of_o christ_n therefore_o it_o can_v possible_o be_v a_o full_a rule_n or_o by_o itself_o be_v

thing_n will_v clear_v this_o 1._o there_o be_v no_o salvation_n but_o by_o christ_n god_n have_v indeed_o exalt_v christ_n to_o be_v a_o prince_n and_o a_o saviour_n to_o give_v repentance_n to_o
