zeal_n you_o must_v believe_v it_o for_o the_o abuse_a word_n of_o god_n which_o as_o himself_o tell_v you_o do_v put_v he_o out_o of_o his_o temper_n and_o warm_v he_o and_o this_o i_o may_v not_o

of_o grace_n in_o the_o three_o of_o genesis_n for_o this_o matter_n he_o dare_v refer_v himsef_n to_o the_o reader_n and_o indeed_o it_o be_v a_o dare_a matter_n for_o as_o to_o the_o first_o that_o

his_o natural_a posterity_n as_o the_o seed_n do_v for_o christ_n mystical_a and_o now_o let_v the_o reader_n judge_n be_o i_o not_o so_o far_o from_o a_o positive_a affirmation_n of_o what_o he_o say_v i_o make_v that_o i_o say_v in_o term_n i_o do_v not_o positive_o affirm_v it_o what_o i_o say_v be_v evident_o say_v not_o by_o way_n of_o position_n of_o what_o i_o do_v conceive_v as_o

this_o disputer_n can_v answer_v indeed_o in_o genesis_n 17._o 10._o there_o under_o the_o term_n you_o abraham_n and_o ishmael_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o family_n then_o present_v be_v

be_v not_o to_o put_v the_o absurdity_n on_o i_o but_o on_o the_o apostle_n as_o for_o the_o three_o which_o be_v concern_v the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n in_o genesis_n 3._o 15_o i_o still_o affirm_v and_o still_o believe_v i_o may_v without_o absurdity_n that_o though_o by_o the_o seed_n of_o the_o woman_n in_o that_o text_n our_o saviour_n christ_n be_v mean_v and_o consequent_o that_o he_o be_v

to_o adam_n all_o be_v by_o way_n of_o denunciation_n on_o the_o serpent_n i_o say_v all_o that_o be_v speak_v there_o be_v speak_v but_o to_o the_o serpent_n not_o to_o adam_n and_o let_v he_o that_o think_v otherwise_o but_o look_v into_o the_o text_n and_o see_v if_o it_o be_v not_o i_o appeal_v from_o unwarie_a prejudices_fw-la unto_o common_a sense_n but_o of_o this_o as_o i_o have_v speak_v somewhat_o in_o my_o print_a letter_n from_o page_n the_o 99_o the_o to_z page_z the_o 106._o so_o i_o have_v discourse_v more_o full_o of_o it_o with_o person_n of_o a_o great_a character_n and_o of_o more_o integrity_n and_o candour_n than_o our_o present_a disputer_n wherein_o one_o day_n the_o reader_n may_v receive_v satisfaction_n but_o for_o my_o antagonist_n he_o think_v this_o be_v a_o popular_a point_n and_o that_o it_o will_v affect_v i_o and_o therefore_o only_o he_o insist_o upon_o it_o and_o so_o often_o inculcate_n it_o and_o be_v not_o this_o malicious_a why_o have_v he_o not_o argue_v it_o out_o as_o i_o expect_v he_o shall_v but_o that_o it_o be_v much_o easy_a to_o exclaim_v and_o calumniate_v than_o to_o demonstrate_v and_o argue_v and_o now_o i_o be_o come_v and_o very_o glad_a i_o be_o that_o i_o be_o come_v to_o the_o four_o thing_n i_o promise_v and_o that_o be_v brief_o to_o state_n again_o the_o argument_n i_o make_v and_o to_o show_v how_o little_a he_o

the_o argument_n and_o then_o to_o form_v it_o the_o ground_n i_o go_v upon_o be_v this_o that_o the_o covenant_n establish_v by_o god_n with_o abraham_n and_o with_o his_o seed_n in_o genesis_n 17._o 7_o 8_o 9_o be_v the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n or_o that_o original_a grant_n and_o great_a charter_n by_o which_o believe_v gentile_n always_o do_v and_o do_v claim_v both_o heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o all_o the_o promise_v they_o have_v title_n to_o as_o also_o that_o abraham_n be_v the_o person_n by_o from_o and_o under_o who_o they_o claim_v as_o be_v his_o seed_n if_o christ_n then_o abraham_n seed_n and_o heir_n according_a to_o the_o promise_n in_o this_o covenant_n as_o in_o all_o other_o that_o be_v proper_a there_o be_v first_o a_o promise_n on_o the_o one_o part_n and_o then_o second_o a_o restipulation_n on_o the_o other_o a_o promise_n on_o god_n part_n and_o then_o a_o restipulation_n upon_o abraham_n part_n and_o upon_o his_o seed_n as_o for_o the_o promise_n that_o god_n do_v make_v to_o abraham_n and_o to_o his_o seed_n it_o be_v vers._n 7_o 8._o that_o he_o will_v be_v a_o god_n to_o abraham_n and_o to_o his_o seed_n and_o will_v give_v to_o abraham_n
