no_o honest_a man_n will_v condemn_v we_o either_o for_o contemn_v the_o bible_n or_o the_o holy_a scripture_n on_o this_o account_n and_o though_o the_o bible_n or_o book_n as_o make_v up_o of_o paper_n ink_n and_o literal_a character_n will_v wax_v old_a decay_n and_o moulder_v in_o time_n as_o s._n f._n say_v yet_o the_o word_n of_o god_n by_o which_o all_o thing_n be_v uphold_v together_o with_o those_o divine_a truth_n doctrine_n and_o testimony_n contain_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n will_v live_v and_o endure_v for_o ever_o and_o this_o can_v be_v no_o contempt_n of_o holy_a scripture_n nor_o contemptible_a speak_n of_o the_o bible_n any_o more_o than_o to_o say_v the_o foundation_n of_o the_o earth_n which_o god_n lay_v and_o the_o heaven_n which_o be_v the_o work_n of_o his_o hand_n though_o a_o more_o copious_a book_n than_o the_o bible_n yet_o they_o shall_v wax_v old_a as_o do_v a_o garment_n and_o they_o shall_v perish_v but_o he_o that_o word_n that_o make_v they_o remain_v the_o same_o and_o his_o year_n fail_v not_o psal_n 102.25_o 26._o heb._n 1.10_o 11._o but_o from_o w._n p._n in_o his_o key_n of_o their_o principle_n p._n 240_o they_o charge_v

that_o it_o be_v in_o reverence_n to_o christ_n yea_o and_o not_o with_o any_o disesteem_a of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n nor_o any_o common_a fallacy_n as_o these_o man_n false_o judge_v which_o be_v their_o common_a course_n to_o recriminate_a when_o they_o can_v give_v a_o fair_a replication_n but_o how_o do_v they_o desire_v the_o word_n of_o god_n with_o their_o learning_n they_o grant_v christ_n be_v call_v the_o word_n of_o god_n figurative_o because_o he_o proceed_v from_o he_o that_o the_o scripture_n be_v more_o proper_o his_o word_n tho_o write_v not_o the_o very_a letter_n

the_o sense_n and_o divine_a truth_n therein_o contain_v and_o thereby_o convey_v unto_o we_o and_o by_o the_o co-operation_n of_o god_n spirit_n work_v in_o we_o faith_n and_o obedience_n which_o

that_o when_o they_o call_v the_o bible_n or_o those_o book_n the_o word_n of_o god_n or_o when_o they_o call_v the_o scripture_n write_v the_o word_n of_o god_n more_o proper_o than_o christ_n it_o seem_v there_o be_v several_a degree_n of_o comparison_n in_o the_o case_n we_o be_v not_o to_o understand_v the_o very_a letter_n or_o write_v in_o ink_n and_o paper_n to_o be_v the_o word_n that_o

and_o we_o be_v sure_a that_o this_o live_a eternal_a word_n be_v often_o mention_v the_o scripture_n but_o never_o find_v that_o the_o holy_a penman_n or_o several_a of_o they_o call_v their_o
