though_o their_o water_n have_v as_o much_o virtue_n as_o you_o and_o the_o child_n of_o the_o one_o believe_v as_o much_o as_o the_o other_o and_o both_o when_o they_o grow_v up_o be_v in_o one_o

which_o be_v in_o god_n the_o ground_n and_o pillar_n of_o truth_n into_o which_o no_o unclean_a thing_n can_v have_v a_o entrance_n for_o it_o be_v a_o spiritual_a house_n build_v with_o live_a

so_o read_v and_o try_v and_o prove_v yourselves_o if_o christ_n be_v not_o in_o you_o you_o be_v reprobate_n profess_v what_o you_o will_v and_o if_o christ_n be_v in_o you_o the_o body_n will_v be_v

not_o their_o first_o estate_n but_o have_v reserve_v they_o under_o the_o chain_n of_o darkness_n until_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o great_a day_n and_o let_v these_o thing_n be_v a_o seasonable_a

outward_o and_o have_v not_o the_o nature_n of_o christ_n all_o such_o be_v a_o abomination_n to_o the_o lord_n you_o be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v leaven_v into_o his_o nature_n which_o only_o make_v a_o christian_n that_o if_o any_o one_o come_v among_o you_o and_o say_v he_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n he_o be_v have_v in_o great_a derision_n among_o you_o and_o be_v laugh_v at_o to_o

nay_o it_o be_v all_o one_o though_o many_o have_v the_o name_n and_o be_v out_o of_o the_o nature_n you_o fall_v a_o quarrel_a and_o kill_v one_o another_o about_o their_o word_n this_o be_v not_o
