which_o be_v light_n and_o therefore_o he_o conclude_v that_o it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o we_o do_v deny_v the_o true_a christ_n which_o he_o conclude_v to_o be_v the_o man_n jesus_n without_o without_o have_v any_o respect_n to_o any_o thing_n that_o dwell_v within_o or_o at_o least_o without_o any_o respect_n to_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n who_o office_n it_o be_v to_o cleanse_v the_o soul_n from_o sin_n and_o so_o consequent_o do_v save_v and_o redeem_v from_o under_o the_o power_n of_o death_n reply_n this_o his_o charge_n be_v absolute_o false_a for_o our_o heart_n viz._n the_o heart_n of_o the_o faithful_a among_o we_o be_v true_o set_v to_o serve_v the_o lord_n and_o our_o main_a end_n be_v true_o to_o worship_v he_o in_o spirit_n and_o in_o truth_n and_o if_o in_o the_o

needs_o be_v charge_v on_o we_o that_o it_o be_v our_o main_a end_n so_o to_o do_v i_o believe_v few_o that_o have_v any_o tenderness_n in_o they_o will_v believe_v thou_o but_o on_o the_o other_o
