man_n the_o natural_a and_o spiritual_a as_o for_o the_o natural_a man_n i_o look_v not_o upon_o he_o as_o a_o competent_a judge_n here_o for_o he_o know_v not_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o spirit_n neither_o can_v he_o for_o they_o be_v spiritual_o discern_v and_o therefore_o how_o can_v he_o judge_v of_o those_o thing_n he_o be_v ignorant_a of_o yet_o i_o be_o sure_a i_o shall_v not_o escape_v his_o censure_n however_o but_o bless_v be_v the_o father_n he_o have_v teach_v i_o how_o to_o bear_v the_o hard_a censure_n reproach_n and_o revile_n of_o such_o man_n with_o patience_n while_o i_o look_v not_o at_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v see_v but_o at_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v not_o see_v for_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v see_v be_v temporary_a but_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v not_o see_v be_v eternal_a but_o as_o for_o the_o spiritual_a man_n he_o know_v all_o thing_n that_o appertain_v to_o life_n and_o godliness_n the_o spirit_n search_v the_o deep_a thing_n of_o god_n and_o

of_o christ_n die_v at_o jerusalem_n and_o rise_v again_o so_o do_v the_o flesh_n of_o a_o saint_n when_o christ_n come_v die_v to_o the_o old_a adam_n and_o by_o the_o power_n of_o the_o
