papist_n and_o a_o quaker_n the_o doctrine_n of_o perfection_n or_o a_o sinless_a state_n begin_v among_o the_o pharisee_n who_o think_v mental_a sin_n nothing_o therefore_o christ_n reprove_v they_o convince_v they_o that_o a_o wrathful_a thought_n be_v murder_n a_o unchaste_a thought_n adultery_n a_o covetous_a thought_n theft_n for_o these_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o divine_a law_n and_o stain_v the_o heart_n of_o man._n the_o great_a wickedness_n that_o ever_o be_v act_v by_o the_o most_o profligate_v man_n in_o the_o world_n be_v at_o first_o but_o a_o thought_n and_o his_o great_a sin_n virtual_o therein_o the_o great_a oak_n be_v once_o no_o big_a than_o a_o acorn_n the_o fire_n that_o burn_a london_n but_o a_o spark_n i_o trouble_v not_o the_o reader_n with_o the_o usual_a distinction_n among_o the_o learned_a of_o a_o perfection_n of_o part_n and_o a_o perfection_n of_o degree_n not_o that_o i_o think_v they_o unuseful_a but_o not_o so_o intelligible_a to_o all_o capacity_n he_o sin_v in_o his_o high_a act_n of_o love_n to_o god_n that_o can_v say_v i_o love_v god_n so_o well_o it_o be_v not_o my_o duty_n to_o love_v he_o more_o neither_o have_v i_o reason_n to_o bewail_v the_o want_n of_o it_o so_o i_o may_v enlarge_v about_o time_n prayer_n etc._n etc._n now_o as_o this_o doctrine_n begin_v among_o the_o hypocritical_a heretic_n in_o the_o church_n of_o the_o jew_n so_o it_o be_v take_v up_o by_o such_o in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n and_o carry_v on_o by_o such_o in_o the_o protestant_a church_n i_o affirm_v and_o be_o able_a to_o prove_v it_o the_o quaker_n borrow_v their_o exposition_n and_o argument_n out_o of_o popish_a author_n let_v any_o man_n compare_v kellison_n the_o jesuit_n his_o survey_n of_o the_o new_a religion_n and_o

often_o call_v they_o as_o detest_a they_o for_o this_o worst_a of_o doctrine_n to_o answer_v this_o first_o question_n they_o desire_v no_o pardon_n of_o god_n for_o any_o imperfection_n in_o the_o end_n of_o a_o day_n for_o fear_v i_o think_v god_n shall_v take_v they_o at_o their_o word_n few_o of_o they_o now_o pretend_v to_o it_o or_o talk_v so_o much_o of_o it_o for_o fear_n it_o may_v be_v
